Does he look better? Part of me is stoked and part of me remembers Ubaldo is really awful now.

Maybe time to find a new spot in the lineup for alexei

After a hot start, Sanchez missed a couple days in the lineup and has struggled a bit. Still, he has a .289/.379/.368 line through April.

6' 7" 230 pounds 18 years old Jefferson Olacio has a posse

Is this how it works? Kanny already played, rolling to a 7-0 victory. Solid, if unspectacular turn from Snodgress, and 2.1 more innings of wildly effective wildness from Jefferson Olacio. http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?s...kanafx_romafx_1 B'Ham off Charlotte at 6:00ET, Purple Phallus at 7:05ET

Tyler "Crazy Eyez Killa" Saladino rapidly turning into one of my favorite 'spects. He can stick at short and he draws a walk better than Morel ever could. Also:

crap

QUOTE (K-Rock @ Apr 27, 2012 -> 08:27 PM) Based on Beckham at bat, that's an infield pop out. shut it down folks shut down the white sox

Watching Beckhams AB on game day, saw in play, outs. Thought to myself, based on pitch position and count, thats an infield pop out. Way too predictable.

That walk from Ravelo actually makes me happier than another hit.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:59 PM) NOPE. We're not in "win now" mode. Rebuilding year. He's not going to be a part of any future with the Sox...why bother? Bingo! Robin wanted to see what he had in Santiago, and now he knows, and hopefully will find out what he has in Reed. Early part of the season is always like this, especially with new faces around.

After all those nail biters against the orioles the sox were due for some hits w RISP

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 18, 2012 -> 09:35 PM) When was Reeds last outing? Last night. Also, improvement!

Yeah he's done in the two hole.

Its more that right now neither is any kind of solution. Hell, bring up Castro.

Escobar can't hit for crap and his defense is probably not an upgrade from Beckham. The only advantage he provides is switch hitting and it doesn't help much from the #9 hitter.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 18, 2012 -> 08:44 PM) Tommorow's lineup, please: De Aza, Lillibridge, Dunn, Konerko, Rios, Ramirez, Viciedo, Flowers, Escobar Pierzynski should DH for Dunn.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 18, 2012 -> 08:42 PM) I can't remember a Sox player I disliked more... Jerry Owens? Randy Williams? There have been plenty i've liked less. That being said, I think its only a matter of time before he is gone.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 16, 2012 -> 09:35 PM) Esco? Really? Sounds like Tesco or Costco. First, tlb, Tanks, this nickname thing is now officially getting out of hand. I dunno, fairly standard shorthand for a person whose last name is Escobar. He can earn a nickname.

yeah, send him down. he is an absolute mess and just needs some re-centering time. esco and bridge can split his at bats

Its kind of depressing how time after time this team has no one to rely on but Konerko. Not to be a debbie downer or anything. go sox

http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/p...id=sanche008car Not much info out there on this young fella... yet. He seems to have a very advanced understanding of the strike zone, which in this system means he should move fast.

Mitchell's stats are sort of crazy. SSS I know but still, 33% K rate, 33% walk rate, something like 10/12 on balls in play. I'm glad he is having some kind of success but that babip is going to come down and he better be ready to make more contact.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Apr 15, 2012 -> 11:10 AM) Why did they bail on him? Seems rash. He isn't that good and the Red Sox have plenty of better 5th starter guys (Aaron Cook, etc) Some team like the Astros or Twins that need lots of pitching help should get him.
