4/14 - White sox vs Indians
I dunno i'd rather he go for three there than with them down by any amount. The defense made a good play and barely got him. That's fine.

4/14 - White sox vs Indians
Hopefully this will carry over into his next start and he'll be a bit more efficient. Tonight was one of dem "effectively wild" performances.

4/14 - White sox vs Indians
The lack of walks is, to me, a sure sign that guys are pressing, not being patient. Eaton and Melky will have to rebound before this looks better.

Third Base and Catcher
This is extreme small sample size, obviously. It also ignores that Sox catchers (and pitchers) can't contain the running game. White Sox CF are hitting .080/.080/.120. Why didn't Hahn address this obviously glaring deficiency?

GAME THREAD 4/10, MIN @ SOX
What a surprise. A soft tossing lefty with fringe-y stuff is dominating the White Sox. The more things change...

Very important to get that last game of trying not to get hurt before the season starts.

The 25-man right now
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 10:12 AM) I know it won't be popular to say, but I see Sanchez ending up as basically Gordon Beckham, with a bit less power. I think that utility player is a realistic ceiling for Sanchez just as it was a realistic floor for Beckham. They do different things well but both are good defenders and deserve bench roles.

Is AL Central baseball's best division?
There is a lot of parity in the AL this season so you might only see one or two 90 win teams. LAA and CLE seem like good bets to reach that level. The NL Central is really tough to call. The Cards and Pirates are the top two but the Cubs are gonna be fun this year. If you squint its pretty easy to see the Brewers being good as well. The Reds still have a lot of talent, but its harder to see them winning it all. NL West and East are top-heavy tho.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 02:14 AM) http://sports.yahoo.com/video/al-central-b...-033623938.html Passan's predicted order of finish 1) Indians 2) Tigers 3) White Sox 4) Royals 5) Twins Passan bitin' on Jonah Keri with that order. As for the title, I would guess its either the AL Central, AL West, or the NL Central. NL East is probably the worst, even with the improved Mets.

Cafardo's manager ranking
Not only that but the pitch Trout hit out was at his ankles. Maybe 3 guys in baseball can hit that pitch. It was just a case where a great hitter won.

Schoenfield is an idiot. No one should listen to him whether he says the Sox will win 90 or 75.

MLB.com Top 100 list
2nd base is not exactly a power position in the minors, since many MLB 2B are converted SS. Still, nice to see, and Micah is probably a borderline top 100 guy based on speed and contact alone.
