Jose Abreu

Steve Stone just made a Katrina joke

Really glad we gave them a free out in that inning

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 10:01 PM) It's the Sox culture now. Come on, they have Gavin Sheets lay down sacrifices Do they really?

Well there we go Engel

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 09:50 PM) Looking a treplay, Engel didn't think he was going to 2nd His own fault for not hustling and being ready. Rule number one in the outfield, get the ball in as quickly as possible

Ok, he's truly the worst player in the league. Not a single positive trait. Even his glove has been bad this year

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 09:43 PM) Yeah I shouldn't have said anything That whole post... lol

Why they have Matt Chapman hitting 6th is beyond me. He should definitely be at the upper half

Great pitch for the strikeout

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 09:25 PM) That was really bad for guy who only brings defense. If he's gonna be a .500 OPS guy, he better be making plays that most CFs don't make, or at least properly stopping balls. He has to be the worst player in the league

I can't even watch Adam Engel anymore

If only Nicky were cleanup and Davidson were 5th... *hopes for a reverse jinx*

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 09:11 PM) good job avi. That's the kind of AB we need from the #2 hitter. Better approach

Moncada with his first SB for us

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 09:08 PM) With all the focus on Moncada/Gio, we've completely overlooked Engel and Avi...they ALSO deserve some scrutiny, right? Well Moncada and Giolito are cornerstones of the rebuild so I think the microscope is justified. Engel simply isn't an MLB player and I don't think anyone expects him to be here long term. With regards to Avi, yes, his completely awful approach deserves scrutiny, but like Moncada, it's too early in the season to be a real issue.

Yoan Moncada

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 08:50 PM) Man, Chuck must read these boards if you just track what he talks about all of the time. I'm pretty sure he does.

Soooo Cordell's year might be done

A close friend of Mitch Trubisky as well. Good article

Kevan Smith to AAA Charlotte on a rehab assignment

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 03:21 PM) Dan Szymborski?Verified account @DSzymborski 31m31 minutes ago There have been 22 games this year with a gametime temperature under 40 degrees. There were only 25 games under 40 degrees the previous four seasons (2014-2017). Nope, dying sport, zero fan interest

This A's pitcher looks worse than 2017 Saladino with that facial hair

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 01:58 PM) I'm a Passan fan, but I agree, that article is overboard. Ignoring the obvious effects of the cold weather this year, I like how he mentions the Cubs and Indians right away. Hey, the 2016 World Series teams, who fell short in 2017, saw a big drop in attendance to start the 2018 season. Baseball has a problem!! Those were the most predictable attendance drops on the board. I like Passan too, generally. But this article is just really poorly done. He implies that tanking is the problem, and then not only discusses the teams that you mentioned, but also the Cardinals and Red Sox, as if those teams are tanking and not playoff threats in currently cold climates.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 16, 2018 -> 12:07 PM) Didn't Colon essentially quit on the White Sox? Yup, went "missing" for a week in the middle of July, I believe. Also a known steroid user but the same fans who hate on Bonds/Rodriguez etc. don't seem to care
