That was my decision." jon greenberg added, jon greenberg ‏@jon_greenberg 20m20 minutes ago Does anyone really care about this? It shows that Robin lacks the fire and the passion.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 03:33 PM) If Abreu gets hot, the entire line up will get better as a lot of other guys will have some pressure taken off of them, and will see a lot more pitches to hit. Abreu is showing signs of getting hot and I feel like he's about to go on a tear. If he does and the rotation can keep doing it's thing, then the Sox could be in first before long.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) And just for arguments sake, I'll offer a one up. The great Joe Maddon missed two games to go to his girlfriends graduation. http://m.rays.mlb.com/news/article/1456373/ Guillen missed a day going from Tampa to Miami for Ozney's graduation http://www.grobbernet.com/2010/05/ Bobby Cox missed for his daughters graduation http://onlineathens.com/stories/060500/spo...ml#.VXo8hEaLVgs Buck Showalter. http://m.orioles.mlb.com/news/article/7545...ers-graduations Terry Francona http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/reds...ona_will_m.html Yeah, but they waited until travel conditions were better. Robin should have told his daughter to wait until they were on the west coast. The hatred be spewed is disgusting.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 12:21 PM) Blake Hickman has "white sox player" in his bio. Professional player nonetheless. I'm guessing he signed.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 12:21 PM) It is retired in a way. No one will ever go numberless again. Touche.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 12:13 PM) Big Ed Walsh puts him to shame. Because his number isn't retired...since they didn't have numbers...people tend to forget one of the greatest pitchers of all-time pitched for the Sox.

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 12:06 PM) Where is he starting in the Minors once he signs? My guess would be the Dash.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 10:29 PM) Exactly. It's nice to see Sale getting all this national attention this week, but Quintana (not necessarily this year, but in general) deserves some too. Quintana could throw back to back perfect games and people would just go "Who?"

Quintana's bad luck ran it's course for at least one game. Abreu is coming alive. Feels like he's about to go on a tear. Bonifacio will likely be the first DFA

WHAT THE f***?!

Great slide by LaRoche.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 10:01 PM) Putnam is a good reminder to trust AAA numbers. Sox only got him because of inflated ERA numbers in brief MLB tryouts despite really good results at AAA. Thanks Theo! And holy s*** Jose!

Correa is dangerous Hawk, but is he as dangerous as Zach Putnam?

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:44 PM) What purpose does Bonifacio serve on this team? He can't hit, run, or play defense. I think he's the first to be DFA'd.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

QUOTE (harkness @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 07:46 PM) We need to trade Quintana for a decent right hander. Sigh.

Q has the s***tiest luck.

Hawk, Ozzie also has the ability to obliterate chemistry in a ball club.

I feel bad for Q.

I don't think Rodon has a higher ceiling than Sale. Nor do I think Sale has a higher ceiling than Rodon. That ceiling is best pitcher alive. We're incredibly lucky that the Sox were the team to decide they would gamble on Sale and that the Astros were enamored with Aiken's youth and the Marlins with Kolek's power.

After looking him up, I want Taylore Cherry. Talk about size.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 04:55 PM) And said employee is unemployed. I don't think that is a coincidence. The fact that Ozney never got drafted again is hysterical. He's currently hitting like garbage in the Frontier League.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 04:36 PM) JJ Cooper ‏@jjcoop36 26s27 seconds ago White Sox pick Michael Hickman in the 36th round. No. 50 on BA's Texas list. Big-time power. Been playing 1B but was announced as C That could be interesting.

Quintana demands a sacrifice from the Astros.
