Jose Abreu

Yes, that's a legit quote.

Brooks Boyer: "The arrow pointing down is very good for pitchers' ERAs. We’re working on creating logos for the facility.''

"Yo, let's hit up The Rate tonight for the Sox game..." Kinda has a ring to it? No?

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Aug 24, 2016 -> 10:56 AM) You know what would be pretty cool at this point? If everyone who said Abreu was "finished" and that MLB pitching had "figured him out" owned up and said they were wrong not that it will happen that way Lmao, that was basically all the ron accounts. Like, 3 different accounts which start out with "ron" started 6-8 anti-Abreu threads, including this one

Per White Sox Twitter

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 22, 2016 -> 05:54 PM) Source? Did he pass through waivers without a claim? He has $14 million left on his contract the next two years...and even one arbitration year, and no team will take that on? http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/08/22/the-do...ve-had-no-luck/ Not sure if he went unclaimed

Dodgers trying to "give away" Puig but nobody wants him. He's hitting over .400 in AAA and was over .300 in his last 30 MLB games

Quintana gets 4 runs of support?? Crazy

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 20, 2016 -> 07:27 PM) Melky is having a great year. Last year was an extremely unlucky season and he was still adequate. I'm glad he's producing more now.

6-0 Sox

I for one am excited for 2017 Lawrie. We've seen his potential, he's better at taking walks, and I think we could see a 25-homer season from him if he stays healthy

We've played more games against +.500 teams than anyone in baseball. Series like these are where we would have needed to take advantage

Why we didn't trade Shields in a huge seller's market when he had some value after a good run is beyond me

I really am not too hot on the Hawks this year. Vesey would've helped a lot, but I mean, outside of Toews/Kane/Panarin/Anisimov/Kruger/Hossa, you have 6 guys in Panik, Motte, Schmaltz, Desjardins, Hartman, and your other center (Tootoo or Rasmussen) who are either not going to produce much or are unknowns.

Eaton

Great win tonight. Fun to watch

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Aug 14, 2016 -> 06:20 PM) Was just told Zach Burdi is getting called up this week after one more appearance in Charlotte #whitesox https://twitter.com/barstoolWSD/status/764958801757818880 Didn't Rabbit have that first

It's not the call that annoys me, it's the lack of consistency. Either enforce the rule at all times or don't enforce it.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 14, 2016 -> 01:37 PM) Stinks that Betts and Bogaerts are superstars now and untouchable I'd be fine with a package centered around Benintendi and Moncada.

Yup, Quintana > Sale for sure this year

Don't worry, we'll go on a mid-September tear, finish 80-82 (but obviously miss the playoffs) and Robin will be handed a 3-year extension.
