How many more one-inning/nine-run starts does Shields get before the Sox pull the plug?

1994 Frank Thomas

I'd pick Clayton Kershaw, but I know that our manager would find a way to f*** that up somehow, possibly by mistaking him as an outfielder and batting him second in the lineup.

Is it just me or does James Shields' BBREF mugshot remind you of....... (that's Frank Walker, the Newspaper Editor from the movie Fletch)

Its gotta be a White Sox thing. Beckham and Flowers are both hitting really well in Atlanta, albeit in bench roles.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 23, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) No catcher reaches the majors in "a year or two". He'd be 3 or more years away, unless he changes position, which damages his value. "Sup bruh?"

...worked his ass off to get to the big leagues. Congrats to Paulo.

"...lesson I learned from that? Don't f*** with the wrong people..." Jerry Reinsdorf and Kenny Williams agree.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 10, 2016 -> 09:48 AM) Petricka is not garbage. Petricka was one of the best non-closer relief pitchers in the game until this season. He is hurt. He'll come back and be fine. *fingers crossed*

He had injury issues in the minors, was hurt during spring training and he hasn't been pitching as well this season. Wouldn't doubt if he was actually hurt.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 3, 2016 -> 06:51 PM) He already said no to AAA . He is going home to Nashville and collecting a $1.25 million check twice a month through September. I think Jordan Danks got released last month. Jordan Danks played for the Phillies last season. I wonder if he landed anywhere this season?

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 10:15 AM) What will Todd Frazier be at age 37? Better than any third baseman the White Sox have had since 2006.

When was the last time it snowed on opening day? What a s***ty day for a ball game.

That's a pretty cool marketing idea. Lucky loopers get all the fancy foodstuffs.

No more Pepsi at the park means no more Gatorade. Powerade is f***ing gross. Boo.

Fix 'em Cooper!

Was the game played at a stadium intended for baseball or another sport? Those dimensions seem very odd.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 12:45 PM) IMO, we should've kept Sanchez or Davidson. Things can change pretty quickly the first month of the season. If needed, it's nice knowing they'll be ready down in AAA.

I am too young to remember Hawk from his early Sox broadcasting years. Was he ever considered a great broadcaster or was he always a homer?

Its nice to have a professional broadcaster calling games now. I'll just leave it at that.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 01:24 PM) It would be great if Sale and Eaton handled this as well as LaRoche seemingly is in that letter. Him calling out Kenny is interesting, and if what he is saying is true they absolutely need to get rid of Kenny. Chris Sale is still salty that Tyler Flowers won't be around to "frame" his pitches anymore.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 01:14 PM) I feel like Laroche at this point is done with it and wants it over with Ya, that's what I got out of it too. I am sure if he were still in camp (which I assume he is not) he would tell the rest of the players to move on.

Alright, so... can someone explain WTF is going on here? I've caught bits and pieces for the last few days, but why are all the Sox players butthurt all the sudden? *confused*
