Opening day...seems just like yesterday all we had to look forward to was John Danks starting on opening day.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 1, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) It's not the ERA that worries me about Samardzija, it's the nearly .5 homers/inning he's allowing. I'm sure he'll be fine though, and hopefully he gets off to a hot start like he has in recent years. I mean from what I saw last game his fastball was really the culprit. His breaking pitches looked fine.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 1, 2015 -> 03:55 PM) Jose Quintana's 2014 Spring game log You know I think it was also fathom who at this point last year was saying the samething about Jose that he's saying about Jeff.

In other news Melky is ready for the season

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 1, 2015 -> 03:34 PM) That is just silly. Literally every single minor league team in all of baseball is loaded with guys who are no where near as good as Scott Carroll. If they were better, they would be major leaguers, and wouldn't be in the minors. Yes it is silly. Watching him pitch is silly.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 1, 2015 -> 03:27 PM) Scott Carroll isn't on the 40 man roster, and isn't breaking camp with the major league team. I mean completely gone. Not wearing any White Sox affiliated uniform. The Knights dont deserve that type of torture either.

The day Scott Carroll is off the team will be a good day

Abreu is ready for the season. Batting .500

QUOTE (Dunt @ Mar 31, 2015 -> 03:49 PM) Why do we need to have Danks on this team while Rodon sits in AAA? You should be able to figure out the answer to that one

Rodon just hit Ethier

Good question and my answer is yes

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 03:38 PM) Jason Castro when the Astros are terrible again Well that would certainly be at the top of the list. Hahn has wanted him for a while.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 03:35 PM) I don't think he'll last past June if he's struggling and the team is in contention. Well that's the thing...who do you replace him with?

Flowers looks like he's ready for another rough year at the plate. Hahn hopefully next year will replace him.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) I do not think it will be all that log till he is starting for good in Chicago. Yeah it wont take that long....but I'm impatient

Too bad we'll have to wait to watch him pitch again

Why are these guys so surprised about how good Rodon's fastball is? He isnt a mystery.

Well that was a bad changeup

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 08:41 PM) This broadcast is too funny listening to KC announcers and coaches talk about how professional Rios is Once he joins a different team his past goes away.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 25, 2015 -> 08:35 PM) Thanks Astros and Marlins Especially the Astros...thank you

that offspeed pitch...that should be banned from viewing.

Rodon is nasty...plain nasty

I dont understand why the Cubs are taking Baez with them. I think he has a fairly good chance of leading baseball in strikeouts. His approach is just awful.

That was a nice little surprise by Rick

I really wish we could watch him.
