QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 06:24 PM) Well, it's on Williams to do the right thing at this point and just designate Pierre for assignment. Ozzie's wishes be damned. He can cry to the media about it, but it's on Kenny to make the right move. Amen, just accept that Pierre does not have it. I do not see any of our division rivals picking him up, so give it a ride and release him. Is there any any chance that if KW trades or releases Pierre it voids the contract offset from the Dodgers?

We have room on our 40 man roster, give Cooper a shot to fix him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) I don't think I'll ever understand the Snodgress pick, especially since rumor is we considered him with our first pick. I agree, we just have to hope for the old Hail Mary, "Maybe Coop can teach/fix him."

Who are the "high ceiling" tough signs from this class? Who will be watching like we did last year for Grimes, Goodwin, and Terry?

This article gives the White Sox honorable mention for teams that might have had a good draft. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20...rtnerId=rss_mlb Kind of surprised. Anyone see any draft review yet?

Total let down, at least it was not some overdraft of a college pitcher. It is interesting that on the mlbnetwork, they stated above average speed and Sickles says he's an 80......................

Thanks to everyone for these daily updates, this is tremendous and I look forward to all of the posts each evening. Totally appreciated.

This draft is the hardest to predict, take the best player available that you think can be signed.

A couple of weeks ago, we lose that game. It is just tough to watch Thornton pitch this year.

Will the Sox pick on day one (June 6th) or with the 47th pick do they wait until day 2 (June 7th)?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 2, 2011 -> 05:57 PM) I am thinking Teahan is back Friday. Anyone hear different. Who goes down? Bruney maybe? Any other moves possible. Forget Viciedo as I am sure he satys in the minors untila t least mid-July or later Be careful, it is Teahen and not Teahan, someone "jumped my kitchen" on that same type earlier this year. With that, Bruney is down. But there seems to be hints via the Score that a larger move is coming. How much longer can Teahen be on his rehab assignment?

I apologize if this is a repeat, but for emphasis, Today in the seventh when PK singled and Hawk said, "That is how you get a 16,000 square foot home in Scotsdale." That just cracked me up.

I'm not sure if there were any better options, but I had hoped that Harrell's career with the Sox was over.........................

Another player from the Swisher trade to the A's called up to the majors: http://www.latimes.com/sports/sns-tsn-aan-...0,1536107.story

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 19, 2011 -> 12:34 AM) I'm not kidding, if he shows this instant cutting down on K's isn't temporary, I want his and Dayan's asses up in Chicago with Pierre DFA'd and Rios traded for a kitty. Jordan will be up this year to play in a major league game in which his brother is pitching. If nothing more than to nudge JD to sign a contract extension.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 15, 2011 -> 06:30 PM) Unfortunately, I think you are right, although it leaves us w/ no backup 3B until Teahen comes back. Can Lillibridge play third?

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ May 15, 2011 -> 06:00 PM) They could try him at 3rd again and we would have more appreciation for Teahan. I think Morel needs to go the minors and let Vizquel play third for the near future.......

My Pick to Click is AJ, first two bombs of the year today for him.

I've never seen a run on dropped balls or terrible OF defense in a long time..........

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 03:24 PM) Pena looked great today and the defense really seemed to respond with him on the mound. With Thornton's struggles and Pena's lights out performance today, should he be the new closer? Discuss. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while, no chance.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 9, 2011 -> 09:27 PM) So far so good for Humber... even though it was against a weakened and depleted Tampa Bay line up - it can't be anything but encouraging. Agreed, even against a depleted Rays team, he pitched six solid innings.

Taking a chance that Castro starts, going with Castro.

Rios

Beckham

I agree with everything that has been said about KW JR, but ironically, he did have a good hitting game last night. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/break...9,0,65498.story
