Jose Abreu

Anyone else agree that we should try a lineup like this? Eaton Abreu (DH) Frazier (1B) Cabrera Lawrie Garcia Catcher Anderson (SS) Saldino (3B) Maybe even consider Anderson 2nd if he hits well, and shift anyone else down. I think Saladino back at 3B like in 2015 could work out, and that way you let Abreu DH. You also give Frazier a break from 3B, as he is also a decent 1B

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:46 PM) If Abreu slides hid is safe easy the ball beat him

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:45 PM) It was a no brainer to let Sale try to go 7. With the Sox bullpen??? But you don't keep him in after he looks gassed and allows a leadoff single

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:44 PM) He was mediocre tonight Sale lost sight of what made him so great in April. He changed his style back to his 2015 ways

Does Abreu not slide...?

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:41 PM) So glad to have New Abreu You mean Old Abreu?

Nice work Putnam

Good pickoff, nearly got him

We're cursed against KC... can't hold a lead

It's one thing to keep Sale out for the 7th, it's another to keep him in after a leadoff single. Unbelievable

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:21 PM) Sample size. QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:21 PM) You would fit in great in a YouTube comments section. Lmao, his anti-Saladino schtick is getting kinda old

2-3 so far

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 07:13 PM) Honestly, I'd give Adam Engel a shot since he couldn't do much worse than Jackson offensively. Defensively, he's ready for the job. Good one

Will the DH spot be left vacant as well???

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:11 AM) Jon HeymanVerified account ‏@JonHeyman word is, to no one's surprise jimmy rollins took the DFA news "like a pro." #chisox Wonder how Latos took it

Sox 1, KCR 0 Sale throws CG 1-hitter We get 1 hit but it's an Anderson HR in the 8th

I'm not too worried about Anderson's bat skills transferring. I just hope his defense is ready

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:50 AM) Robin probably requested he come up for bunting. funny cause it's probably true

Playing time- does Saladino start more or does Anderson? Is Anderson being used more as a PH/pinch run?

I heard confirmation on the Rollins DFA but nothing on Anderson (yet)

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 11:34 PM) Don't think Anderson's coming up. He's kind of cooled off the last 2+ weeks. More likely, Sanchez slots back into that utility role, unless it's Jason Bourgeois instead. Good point- I mean, the dude is hitting .384 and has had ample at-bats. Could be a terrific pinch runner for us (but then again so could Anderson)

This probably means nothing, but Tim Anderson's Facebook profile lists his career as "Chicago White Sox shortstop"

Anderson's offense + Saladino's defense = all-star shortstop If only we could play them at SS at the same time!

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 11:15 PM) I know this Dave guy broke the news on Shields . Did he also call the Morneau signing ? He had bad info in the offseason but he has been decent this year. Not sure re: Morneau

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 11:15 PM) Does that mean Timmy up? User Actions Follow Brian Bilek ‏@BrianBilek_ Take it FWIW, I asked around if Tim Anderson is joining the team tomorrow and I got no responses. I usually get responses. #WhiteSox
