QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 22, 2017 -> 08:45 PM) Mitchell was a far better prospect at this point. That ankle injury destroyed his career. Partly true, the injury part. But, a lot of Sox Talkers kept Hawkins at or near the top of their prospect list for a long time, with one exception.

Courtney Hawkins having another tough night. 3 AB's, all strikeouts. What's the point here in keeping him? Do him a favor and release him. Maybe another org can help him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 22, 2017 -> 07:32 PM) Check out how awful this draft was http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/team/draft...s&year=2012 Man, that is an eye opener. Futility.

It's simple. Abreu just needs Moncada to mentor him.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 07:02 PM) Was about to have a heart attack thinking Kopech got roughed up like that. Oops, didn't notice that game was already over with the DH. Apparently it wasn't as bad as the numbers looked, with some defensive miscues contributing. Still some control issues. And for those saying we should have a Top 3-5 system ranking, it's hard to believe we're Top 10 with how ridiculously bad that Birmingham everyday line-up is. Yep. Still bottom 10.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 07:00 PM) If the Sox were willing to try May they could just as easily try Engel. At least the defense will still be good. Leury has ran down some fly balls but has misplayed 2 I've seen that were rolling or bouncing. None of those guys are big leaguers. Makes no difference which one plays. Maybe when Tilson gets back it will be a little bit better.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 05:32 PM) Asche and May can console each other in the airport bar. Make it a booth, need room for our SP.

Thank you.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 08:08 PM) Tim Anderson is very good, White Sox 1B are f***ing trash. Ball had a big tail on it. Tougher than it looked.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 07:03 PM) I'm surprised it wasn't May - he really looks like he needs minor league seasoning. He's already had that.

If I were a Mod, I would close this thread.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 12:18 PM) We're really DHing Yolmer SANCHEZ? Yikes. Anderson really needs to pull out of this funk. Benched today. Sophomore slump, pressure from big contract, whatever's going on... The little s__t got two, count 'em two, hits.

Mitch Roman and Ian Hamilton. Both had great years last year as rookies, and both have gotten off to very hot starts this month.

Rockies pitcher Jon Gray out 6 weeks or more with broken foot/toe. They need a starter.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 12:31 PM) This rebuild is going pitch perfect. So happy they went for it. Does that include Giolito's struggles?

QUOTE (mataipaepae @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 02:28 PM) StI'll don't understand why race is pertanant? It's not. Get off it.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 08:02 PM) Collins is no match for Winkelman Kyle Tucker no match for Easterling.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 06:51 PM) Great job by Swarzak He is the Winning Pitcher if bullpen comes through.

Sox need some offense.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 06:03 PM) CF hitting for Sox is fun bad Tampa's Peter Bourjos just hit a homer vs Yanks.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 05:57 PM) Fulmer got dicked by his defense there. Groundball up the middle, the SS fielded it, but instead of throwing to 1st for the 3rd out, he tried to run to tag 2B. He slipped, then dove to the base and the runner beat him. So now it's bases loaded for Fulmer, and the next batter hits a towering drive to the RF wall and it appears to go off the RF's glove at the wall and all 3 runs score. All 3 SHOULD be unearned, because of either the SS or the RF, but both were ruled hits. Official Scorers are typically awful. There should be an "Official Scoring School" sponsored by MLBB. Instead, it looks like they get some hobo off the street corner to come in and get his 25 bucks for the night.

Don't stop now boys.

Buster Freaking Olney just tweeted that Encarcion is pressing. He (Olney) gets paid for this stuff.

I have the feeling that today's game is that dreaded "You better look good tonight, or it's bye-bye".

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 08:33 AM) Different people in charge now though. Don't think so. Same GM at least. Jeff Bridich.
