QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 03:41 PM) Don't worry, when Hector is pulled after 5 shutout innings with 109 pitches, LaRoche will be used as a pinch-hitter. Who gets to 100 first - Hector or Carlos?

Hector Santiago vs. rookie Santiago with better potential.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 11, 2015 -> 09:37 AM) Well then I guess we should get used to sad Greg, like usual.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 10:32 PM) AVI-SALE ! I get it. QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 10:54 PM) Sale, Avi, and Nate Jones were the bright spots today. So good to see Nate doing well.

Avi with two homers? WHAT IS THIS?

BLIND SQUIRREL POWER!

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 05:09 PM) I think he was disappointed when testing Reinsdorf playing favorites that Kenny won. Part of me also thinks Ozzie new how bad the organization is with player development and probably couldn't deal with this current mess. Well, Ozzie is also terrible at making rookies feel wanted.

Remember when the White Sox were one of the most dominant teams of the 21st century and were going to be a dynasty at least? When Beckham was MLB Networks FUTURE SECOND BASEMAN OF THE DECADE? Sports are volatile. The Cubs could go on an extended run right now and be in the postseason every year. Or their prospects could bust and they'll be back to the lab again. For some reason, people like to forget that dynasties are hard to build when it comes to the Cubs.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) I wouldn't mind bumping up Alvarez and Anderson each up a level, and let Rondon go back to A+. They could get a couple weeks taste of the new level and make adjustments in the off season as needed. I didn't even notice that Rondon is in AAA. Ooof. Talk about do or die.

The fact that they used "It's clobberin time" for Ben's brother abusing him is appalling. Also, anyone could see this disaster coming, though not THIS big of a disaster. Fox wants the rights to do a live-action X-Men TV show, which Marvel has. So they might do a trade of X-Men TV for FF. If Marvel gets the rights back, they need to skip the origin and use the Future Foundation branding instead of Fantastic Four. But best of all, we can see (a hopefully comic book faithful) Doom square off against the Avengers. Or Galactus. Or Kang. Or Annihilus. Or a Skrull - Kree war.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 07:31 PM) Sox did not win games. Twins are irrelevant. Orioles 3-3 on the west coast. Past week: Blue Jays 7-0 Angels 4-2 Orioles 3-3 Rays 4-2 Rangers 4-2 Twins 1-6 Tigers 3-3 White Sox 1-5 I really can't see the five current postseason teams falling out of it. Maybe if the Yankees just bomb, and the Orioles get on a run the last five weeks of the season. Notice how the team that made two big moves has been on fire. Yet we stood pat.

Pulling for a Blue Jays - Mets WS. I wish we traded Shark and a reliever to the Jays to help them out even more. I'd enjoy seeing Mark get another ring.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 04:24 PM) Cle (30-39)- 11-7, 2-17, 9-10, 8-5 Det (27-41)- 6-12, 7-12, 9-10, 5-7 KC (24-45)- 6-12, 9-10, 6-13, 3-10 Min (35-34)- 14-4, 8-11, 9-10, 4-9 116-159 (.422) That's like a 68-94 team against your own division. Over 275 games. Everything is ok though.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 04:07 PM) His career goal is to make the majors and walk 100 times in a season. How great is that. His mentality is perfect. It's one of the big things I was able to gather from talking to him.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 03:59 PM) The double promotion I suggested for him doesn't look too insane now. Too good for high-A as well. Let's get him in the lineup for the Angels series. Eddy may be my favorite "sleeper" in the entire org. I made the completely bats*** crazy prediction he'd be Top 100 by the end of the year and while that isn't happening, he's extremely fun to follow.

Of course.

QUOTE (spiderman @ Aug 8, 2015 -> 10:20 PM) What is Heyward going to get? $15M a season? I like him but the White Sox need a #4 and #5 hitter to go with Abreu. Even if they keep the C (Flowers and Soto platoon) and 2B (with an improving Sanchez) intact, they have gaping holes at RF, SS, 3B and DH while C & 2B could be horrible production as well. I'd imagine it will be more like $20M+ a season.

QUOTE (L. Ron Paultard @ Aug 8, 2015 -> 07:17 PM) So a Don Cooper starter who is cruising..... is suddenly having all sorts of problems pitching out of the stretch??? Under pennant race pressure late in the season? Shocking, LOL. Who knew that a whiny fat-man with a fragile ego like whom who snaps at any semi-difficult questions... would somehow infect his pitching staff. Then again, Coop is untouchable. Did 2005 really happen? Um...

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 8, 2015 -> 07:11 PM) That was a great stop just to keep it in the infield and get one. I just saw the bobble. It was a good stop. And FFS Shark. You ain't getting ace money at this rate.

Tyler. Damnit.

Holy s*** Alexei, that was a pretty flip.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2015 -> 06:58 PM) Cabreroid had some face 2 face words with Perez after he scored on that GIDP. Watch for things getting chippier later. Greg is excited.

Everyone had the Sox skipping Trout and the Angels taking him, but damn, if it doesn't hurt every time I see him play. He actually has a shot at being the GOAT. That's insane.
