Chicago White Sox

Can we ban Greg from Soxtalk for life if his prediction comes true?

Alexei having an incredible game defensively.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 10:59 PM) I predict Hosmer knocks in the winning run ... if he's not ejected by then. Dude STFU

I'm going to be enraged if Abreu doesn't bat this inning because of that Beckham steal.

And the worst part of that Beckham stolen base attempt is it may prevent Abreu getting to the plate this inning.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 10:43 PM) Alexei bunt/Beckham steal attempts in late innings are prolly not going to put you in "Manager of the Year" conversations. There is managing aggressive and there is managing stupid, I think we know how to classify both of those decisions...

Nice f***ing play Alexei!!!!!

I f***ing hate Ventura.

Could use a triple right about now.

I would feel a lot better about this offense's long-term prospects if LaRoche was batting 5th and we had a legit cleanup hitter, especially against LHP and during inter-league play.

Let's get one more right here LaRoche!

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:30 PM) Sale just drilled Moustakas on 0-2. Think it caromed off his shoulder into his face. He's extremely lucky it hit his shoulder first, because it was heading straight towards his face.

Sale just killed Moustakes.

God I love Micah Johnson. Terrible throw but still love the effort.

Nice work Alexei! Keep it going Flowers!

This is really going to suck if we don't get at least one here.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:14 PM) Micah will learn he's gotta bail earlier on that play if he can't get it. I almost think Avi slowed some to avoid a collision and that might have been the difference. I think you're right. The good news is that this is only a concern because Micah has incredible range.

First hit batter of the night!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:09 PM) No surprise Garcia was also involved in that near Faces of Death experience. Based on the slow motion replay, Garcia was inches from taking a cleat to the face.

Ok Micah, slow down son before you kill yourself.

Who was the Cubs player that got impaled by a bat a few years ago?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:03 PM) Unless his time from delivery to home is slower because of his wind-up, they're better not forcing the issue until Micah is comfortable reading all the opposing pitchers in the AL Central. Seems like more aggressive outs on the basepaths would just lead to further frustration from the offense/Sale. Plus Perez has a hose. Yeah, Stone pretty much explained why it was a stupid idea, but I'd like to see Micah beiextra aggressive if he's on-base with two outs, especially when the offense is struggling.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 07:59 PM) Sox are in top 6 of k% and 27 bb% Unfortunately these numbers aren't surprising.

Steal second Micah!

Man that Kannapolis lineup is horrible prospect-wise. Any chance a few guys get called up from extended spring training in the next month or so?
