2017 International Signings
QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 10:48 AM) That's a direct violation of the international rules though. I doubt any team does that. You are basically circumventing the CBA. I guess it could happen but I think it would be heavily frowned upon. Theo made a living by bending the rules. Do what you have to do.

GDT Twinkies @ Sox
QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Apr 8, 2017 -> 07:13 PM) Let Avi play CF. He can't be any worse there than he is in RF and he may actually be better. Some players find it easier to play CF than a corner OF spot. Plus his bat plays better in CF than in RF. Didn't the Tigers have him in CF?

Twins @ White Sox- 4/7/17
QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 07:44 PM) If Frazier goes and Moncada comes up later in year he can play 3rd. Moncada said that his best and natural position is second

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 03:27 PM) If you can land Robert, you do it. Definitely take advantage of the Cuban connection if possible. There should be zero confidence in our ability to land Otani. I have confidence in them pursuing Ohtani. The Sox were very much in pursuit of Tanaka and were reported to be in the final mix, which means they had to have a $100M+ offer on the table.

2017 International Signings
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:58 PM) Nah, just thinking the Cubs will be a very attractive team for him to sign with. Otani fits right in with the young players the cubs already have. It doesn't matter because they can't sign him

Ohtani has told 60 Minutes that will sign with a MLB after this season

Some love for Zack Collins
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 12:12 PM) I fully expect Collins to tear up high A ball at the plate He has a great hitting approach and knows how to take walks If he can stick at catcher he could be a star for the White Sox He could be a star for them regardless of where he is playing. I'm of the mind that if he bat really plays that they should move him from off the plate

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!!!

4/6 Games
QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 08:47 PM) Do not see either guy having much of a future with the Sox. Its been said here before but the Sox should move Hawkins to the mound, maybe he could be a solid reliever for them.

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 02:17 PM) Definitely. Only 3-6 so far this year, and hit a paltry .319/.384/.514 the second half of last year. Bravo

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 01:50 PM) Right. Because he can easily go 6 for his next 6 and be at a .375 average. One down, five to go

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 01:40 PM) I think he's saying it's not really a big enough sample to say if a guy is struggling or not. Exactly, at least give him 20 PA's before you say he's struggling

Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 01:33 PM) Man Anderson is struggling to start. But its the second game of the year, no one is struggling. It's too early for that
-
Tigers @ White Sox- 4/6/17
Let's keep a tally of how many times Anderson swings at a first pitch?

Tank for Beer
QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 4, 2017 -> 08:46 PM) Not even close, he could be dropping big time. It looks like the strength of that draft will be prep bats and college arms

'17 Breakout Prospect

Tank for Beer
QUOTE (New Era on South Side @ Apr 4, 2017 -> 06:36 PM) I'm late to this party, but I want to be on the Tank for Beer party train. Can someone link me to a scouting report and tell me why he will go number one in the draft? He won't go #1

Opening Day 4/4/2017 - White Sox vs Tigers
QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Apr 4, 2017 -> 02:47 PM) His value as a trade piece means more to the White Sox than whatever he does on the field. Does one terrible game jeopardize his vaue? No, and I don't think anyone has suggested as much. But it absolutey cannot be a reoccurring problem. It's easy for Hahn to hold off trading Q assuming he'd pitch at his usual level and maintain trade value . "Wait until the trade deadline" ive heard many say. But if he doesn't......wow, that would be TERRIBLE for this franchise's rebuilding effort. It's just the risk we've accepted. Let say this ovvereaction comes true and Q has a down season compared to his usual numbers, the Sox still traded Sale and Eaton and got a lot back for both. How many rebuilding teams, especially as of late, kicked off their rebuilds with moves like that. So Q having a down year wouldn't be the end of the world.
