Jose Abreu

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 03:03 PM) Mike Fiers is dominating the White Sox. Renteria should mix the lineup tomorrow. I'd like to see: Moncada 2B A. Garcia RF Abreu 1B Delmonico DH Anderson SS Castillo C L. Garcia LF Sanchez 3B Engel CF

Davidson is a complete black hole

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:43 PM) Cease is easy pick for me If they're both relievers then me too. But I can still see him as a starter for now

I think one of Lopez/Cease will be our closer eventually

Let's take some of Avi's BABIP luck and give it to Moncada, please

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 02:01 PM) For now, I'm fine with it, but if he's still doing what he's doing now in a week or 2, in my opinion it would be good to reward him and hit him higher in the lineup. I sure as hell like their chances of scoring Abreu from 3rd a lot better with Timmy right now than I do with Delmonico or even Castillo. The thing is, while he is speedy and whatnot, he actually could very well be a 20+ HR guy too. I'm not opposed to him hitting 5th or 6th

It just is annoying that the defense once again is preventing him from going deeper into games. The same thing happened for most of his Kannapolis starts last year.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:58 PM) Right now it’s still 4 2/3rd’s and 2 er... The change would be after the game probably

Yoan is so smooth on defense

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:52 PM) You mean we need to send Yoan more Yoan, Engel, even Leury/Yolmer

Good, looks like the scorer may knock Cease down to 1 ER, as it should be

5/5 in stolen bases for Anderson. Meanwhile Moncada is 0/0 despite having several opportunities to run. We need to send our guys more

TA should not be hitting 8th

That's all on the defense. Cease got the double play ball to get out of that inning unscathed, but Yeyson choked. Then he had an out at the plate, but the catcher dropped the ball. Just like last year, the stats don't tell the story with Cease. He looked very good

QUOTE (Richie @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:33 PM) I feel like that Abreu HBP was retaliation for Giolito hitting 3 guys yesterday. Feel like this could turn into some stupid scuffling Why would he want to hit a guy with 1 on and 1 out?

Maybe I'm just biased against him because I'm too used to seeing him come up with runners on (this season) and kill rallies. I'd like him a lot more if he were batting lower in the order

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:28 PM) Davidson ANOTHER walk. What a start. Eh... I mean I'm happy with the walk but I wouldn't say "what a start". He still looks overmatched too often to be a cleanup hitter

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:26 PM) Gotcha, I didn’t see it, but thought Hawk called it a wild pitch. Castillo made a bad throw before it too

QUOTE (Richie @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:20 PM) Rocky 1st inning for Rey I'd say it was more Castillo's fault than Reynaldo's

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 01:17 PM) The attendance wasn’t bad yesterday and it was 32 degrees 16k is bad

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 12:33 PM) I posted this article in the AL Central thread and I just reread it and did not see him suggest $42 million anywhere in it. He definitely did, I read it and saw it. Did you click the "continue story" button?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2018 -> 12:05 PM) That's probably a good idea for the player. At 42 million a year or so, all he has to do is stay healthy to make similar money to a long term deal. Let's say he gets 42 million and sucks the one year. At that point he could sign a 2-year 60 million deal. Somebody would pay it. Or another 1 year deal for 30 mill. But he's always on a contender this way. This is not a bad idea for the player. No team is paying that kind of money for a 4th/5th starter.

Given that pretty much everything Trevor Bauer says is wrong, no

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 05:14 PM) I wonder if Minaya is the first big leaguer this season to be sent down just for being bad. He was awful. Goes to show, spring training competition is almost a thing of the past. They’ll stick with you if you end the prior season strong. Yup. And that's how it should be. Unfortunate that Minaya has fallen apart, though

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 05:05 PM) Who comes up? Probably Gomez
