QUOTE (StrykerSox @ May 15, 2016 -> 02:30 PM) Saladino sucks. For all of you who talk about how he's so much better than Rollins, remember, his OBP was .018 lower than Rollins' last year, in what was by far the worst year of Rollins' career. I don't know why anyone wants to see so much of this dope. defense edit- I also don't expect a 37 year old Rollins to bounce back to his prime days offensively. You'd probably get about the same production from them at that end (and, Saladino's offensive numbers are better so far relative to PT)

Right now, Avila is playing more (not including his DL stint), as he tends to start vs RHPs and Navarro tends to start vs LHPs. Defensively, I don't think there is a worthwhile difference between starting one over the other. Navarro has a .232 BABIP that will go up, and Avila has a .333 BABIP that will go down (especially considering his slow bat speed and seemingly often weak contact). Also, you at least know that Navarro will run into a homer every now and then.

QUOTE (Green Line @ May 15, 2016 -> 02:21 PM) I'll take that kind of a start from our 5 spot. 4.2 IP? I'd take 5-6 innings.

good game for Saladino

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ May 15, 2016 -> 01:54 PM) The first pitch to Melky that was called a strike is a pitch Gonzalez hasn't gotten all day. As well as the 4th pitch to Frazier

Did Gonzalez get hurt, or has he just completely lost his control?

QUOTE (flavum @ May 14, 2016 -> 09:24 AM) Astros series: Tue- Keuchel vs Rodon Wed- Fister vs Latos Thu- Fiers vs Sale My guess- toss-up (Keuchel sucks this year), loss, win

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 13, 2016 -> 10:09 PM) Players vest in their pensions after 43 days on the active roster and just one day qualifies a player for lifetime healthcare. You're welcome, Michael Ynoa.

I played little league from 2007-2013 and the parents weren't too bad. Even in travel, there weren't any real nutjobs

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ May 10, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) Lawrie only walked 28 times last year, with 144 strikeouts. That's the kind of guy you want hitting sixth or seventh, not second. Same goes for Ajax. He walked 28 times in a full season, but has walked 17 times in our 33 games this year.

QUOTE (hi8is @ May 10, 2016 -> 04:00 PM) I think Mrs. Diaz f***ed the pool boy and Laz brought his personal life to work yesterday. If that's the case, then Mrs. Diaz does this every day, as Laz is always horrible.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 10, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 10m10 minutes ago First time ever Melky Cabrera ejected last night. Said he told Laz Diaz, "you are a bad umpire. Those pitches were balls." Melky giving it to him straight

QUOTE (flavum @ May 10, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) I usually don't root for a rain out, but Friday could be wet in NY. A couple days off for the pen might be to our advantage. Damn, that's the one game in our next 6 that I could actually watch...

88-74 if we play .500 from here to the end.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 10, 2016 -> 08:42 AM) They're not 100% confident with Carlos Sanchez at SS. Certainly not enough to give him 70% of the playing time over the veteran Rollins. Which is why we're advocating for Saladino.

We tried to give it away- bad defense (especially Sands), bonehead moves (such as bunting on 2 strikes), poor relief pitching by some... still got the W.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:05 PM) http://espn.go.com/mlb/gamecast?gameId=330...amp;src=desktop 2013 with Addison Reed, who still got the win by pitching 3 innings. I was right! Way to ignore my response :/

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:03 PM) pisses me off rollins is getting such a long ass look, he's pretty much toast. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...45&start=45

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:01 PM) Anyone remember when the Sox blew a 5 run lead in like the 12th, the only team ever to do so? That was great Against Seattle, right? And Hawk went silent for a few minutes? Good times
