Chicago White Sox

Come on Duke, get this f*** out.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 16, 2015 -> 12:20 AM) Who is pinch-hitting for Lawrie? Wow is f***ing right!?!

Who is pinch-hitting for Lawrie?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2015 -> 12:14 AM) Great job by Jennings!! Seriously, what an amazing pickup by Hahn.

So Putnam gets the 8th? I'd probably have Duke face Reddick and then bring in Putnam.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 16, 2015 -> 12:08 AM) Sanchez. YARD. Not sure of your aim here, but you completely jinxed him with this s***.

Just an embarrassing at-bat there. At least keep count through two pitches.

Here we go Jennings, one more strike.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:56 PM) We need one more bullpen arm to be dangerous. Nate Jones might be able to be that guy around the all-star break. Otherwise, if you believe the minor league numbers you could give Cleto a look. It's too bad that Webb has really regressed. I really thought he was going to be a great set-up man.

f*** yes!!!!!

Make them pay LaRoche!!

Big at-bat right here.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:36 PM) Fun fact, went to Miami University in Oxford, OH So did I which is why I'm a big fan.

Thank god they didn't double us up. Really need Melky to come through. At least get one this inning.

Come on Eaton, let's do something right here buddy!

QUOTE (GreenSox @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:29 PM) LOL hardly. The opposite, as a matter of fact. Despite a terrible season, Ozzie STILL wouldn't play the prospects. Unless you consider Jerry Mitchell a prospect. He was playing the utility players, and the org guys, the slap hitters, the lungers. Did you just combine Jerry Owens & Jared Mitchell into some sort of super-flop prospect?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:27 PM) Carlos has a 4.96 ERA but they have to keep sending him out there...unless he has 2-3 more starts with 5-6 walks. His change has been abandoned....more or less. Hard to get by as a two pitch thrower unless you have Bob Feller stuff. Watching Pineda tonight, similar, fb and slider 95%. Contreras with fastball and forkball/split. Agree with this. He can't abandon the changeup if he wants to be succesful as a starter.

QUOTE (Dunt @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:21 PM) Have you looked at his numbers? Yeah, BB % up, K % down, and a BABIP a good 50 points below his career average. Seems like luck hasn't been his friend. The power has been non-existent, but it's only been six weeks. Absolutely crazy to jump to any conclusions, especially when he's hit some hard-hit balls right at guys the past week. I'm not worried about Melky in the slightest.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:19 PM) Cabrera's the most worrisome IMO. You're worried about Melky?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:15 PM) Sanchez and Johnson are 2b only................they do not have arm strength for SS. One will be traded at some point. It's more about the at-bats than anything.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:10 PM) Who? Thompson? Anderson? Sanchez and Johnson? Kevan Smith? If the season spirals out of control at some point, then I think you start Johnson at 2B, Sanchez at SS, Smith at C, and give Thompson some time in the OF. Anderson is not close to being ready IMO. Unless he develops some patience in the second half of this season, he'll need to start next year at AAA.

Alright boys, time to score some f***ing runs. Been in this thread for 15 minutes and already sick of the negativity.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:03 PM) Except we don't The Shark hate on this board is starting to get ridiculous.

I think it's pretty obvious that Rodon is on the major league roster because they want him working with Coop on a daily basis and they feel he's a better starting option than Noesi despite being an unfinished product. Let's give him a few starts before we determine he's not ready for the pros. His stuff is so good that he can still be effective even if he's a bit wild at times.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 15, 2015 -> 07:31 PM) This is being really overthought. Carlos: Has hit in limited big league time Not really, a .591 OPS & 61 wRC+ is pretty horrible.
