Quin

I blame Corey Kluber's poison bullets.

Quintana is worth Schwarber plus two or three more interesting pieces. If Quintana were on any team other than the White Sox, he would be an All-Star twice by now.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 12:21 PM) the only team the sox should assume they can beat are coming up (red sox) and Phillies. That we should assume we can beat a team ahead of us in rankings is ridiculous. I assume our pitching can hold down anyone. I also assume any pitching can hold down our offense.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 11:52 AM) But are the Sox really gonna trade him to a team that in 2 games of them in the standings? The price just went up in my opinion. Pentecost and Hoffman or go away. But I feel like the Sox will at least see how the next four days play out. Sweep or win 3/4, I doubt Shark goes unless they get a ransom. This post has my exact thoughts. I feel like if they sweep the Red Sox, then they'll make a push and settle for a sandwich pick or resigning Samardzija. If they don't the price should be something like Pentecost and Hoffman.

Wonder why the White Sox suddenly remembered how to hit home runs? It was Jobu. http://www.chicagonow.com/soxnet/2015/07/w...ling-jobus-rum/

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 12:58 AM) Yeah, I get it. About as funny as blackface. Good stuff. I'm just providing context for the photo.

I just have a sinking feeling that Keuchel will get it due to his ERA unless Chris gets beneath 2.50

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jul 27, 2015 -> 12:38 AM) Out of curiosity, what's with the "funny," blatantly racist Rodon pic, admin? It's a real picture of Rodon. He dressed like that for Halloween. http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college...le10295888.html

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 26, 2015 -> 04:04 PM) No arm The bar is Flowers. He'll be fine.

The solution is we teach Micah to catch.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 26, 2015 -> 03:33 PM) If we sweep Boston we'll be 50-50. Look where .500 would put us in the WC race. Juicy. If they sweep Boston, I'm in.

QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 10:12 AM) if you want to think so. It's exactly what vanilla means. Ozzie is Rocky Road. Eaton would be mint chocolate chip.

Sanchez!

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 26, 2015 -> 12:09 AM) I like what I've seen to date, but should I be skeptical of a 25 year old AAA player having any extended staying power? That's not overwhelmingly old. Saladino has always been a "solid" guy. Figured he'd be the utility guy before they signed Beckham. Then again, Beckham was predicted to be part of the next All-Decade team at second after his rookie year. So let's just sit back and enjoy the ride.

I refuse to have hope. I want to. This pitching staff is good enough that if the White Sox offense is even average, they could make it. But something about fool me once...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 04:48 PM) Behind Colon and Niese? Ha. I could see him being the #4 in that rotation , but let's not get crazy. By fWAR, Quintana is their #2 behind deGrom

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 25, 2015 -> 07:24 PM) Sanchez hitting .333 post All-Star Game. It's what he's done at every level. Be very bad, then start hitting. Micah now hitting .331 at Charlotte.

If they had done this against the Royals or Cardinals, we'd be talking. But they didn't. Don't get false hope Rick, just don't.

Baez or Castro for him. It's s steal Amaro!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2015 -> 11:06 PM) Shh. He is getting them a front line pitcher. Apparently they offered Castro OR Baez, they aren't willing to part with both. Ahahahahaha

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 24, 2015 -> 10:37 PM) It's all about the bat for Rondon, imo. They know what he can do with the glove. Eddy has a bat that could maybe someday play in the bigs, especially if he can man short while doing it. I like their strategy. Eddy will still be old for level at 26 in B'Ham in 2016, but we'll have a good idea by this time next year if he has a future in the bigs. And even then, Eddy's "young" in baseball years since he took so much time off becoming a silver medal olympian.

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Jul 24, 2015 -> 09:05 PM) does he have any defensive skills? Good defensive tools, makes some mental mistakes. His current focus is cutting down on errors
