QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 30, 2016 -> 12:27 AM) Is Sounds of the Show shareable? I'm guessing not due to copyright? No, it's not, but it was pretty quick for me. I just downloaded MP3s of walkup music, Thunderstruck, etc. in about 10 minutes, and then applied them to the Sox and Sox players in another 15.

PS- I suck at hitting with Todd Frazier.

I put in all the authentic Sox walkup music along with regular ballpark songs (such as Thunderstruck) and it's pretty cool. Nice to have Sounds of The Show back.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 06:46 PM) Doubront is the A's 5th starter over Jesse Hahn. Kind of a dumb move

The main reason I prefer Saladino to Rollins is defense. Not that Rollins is bad defensively, but Saladino is just elite in that regard

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:31 PM) I assume you are saying that Saladino had a higher batting average than Rollins last year right? Because Rollins had a fairly significantly higher OPS. Saladino hit for a .2245 average last year while Rollins managed a meager .2243. A difference of .0002, or roughly 1 hit in every 5000 at bats. But yeah, let's give him the starting job because of it over Rollins who is a former MVP out to prove himself again and is looking revitalized this spring. Saladino is out to prove himself as well, so that point is moot. Looking revitalized this spring? So is Matt Davidson... spring training stats don't matter.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 10:01 AM) I don't get the fascination with Ishikawa at all. No way should he be your DH and batting 6th to start the season. I don't get the fascination with Rollins. I mean, he deserves to make the team, but I still think Saladino is the better player. That aside, it looks as though Rollins will be our #2 hitter? I'd much rather have Melky or even Austin Jackson there than a guy who hit worse than Saladino and Flowers last year.

IMO, we should've kept Sanchez or Davidson.

Ishikawa's left-handedness is nice, but it would also be nice if he hit higher than .222 since 2013.

Also, I'm still a bit worried about our outfield defense. If we DH Garcia, then that still leaves Melky in LF and Eaton playing RF. We can't really know how he'll adjust

Not sold on Ishikawa.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 07:52 PM) This beats the piss out of having to DVR the game, putting my phone on airplane mode and then watching the Sox get wrecked like last year. How old-fashioned... I wish I had the strength to follow through with that. Well, even if I did, I'm sure someone would ruin it for me in person

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 05:06 PM) I'm not a huge fan of West coast games, but will take the ability to watch an opening day game live on TV than being forced to watch delayed on DVR or follow on GameCast. Also, we don't have a day off following opening day this year, which is also a huge plus. Nothing worse than waiting months for your first real taste of baseball only to have to wait two more days for your second serving. That was especially horrible last year after Opening Day left a bad taste in our mouths

It's not about his personality, it's about his horrible, below-Mendoza-line batting. No thank you.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 27, 2016 -> 09:50 PM) Are the Hawks back or is Western Canada just this f***ing bad? probably both but I won't complain!

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 26, 2016 -> 06:02 PM) Bulls literally have 0 excuse of losing tonight. Vucevic, Oladipo, and ilyasova are not playing tonight. Also, Orlando on the 2nd half of a back to back lol

Alex Cintron days until opening day.

Will Robin Ventura be the manager of the White Sox on September 1st? No How many wins will the Sox have when they return from Detroit on June 5th? 58 games scheduled through that date (33 on the road). 26 More games started- Navarro or Avila? Navarro Carson Fulmer debut date and role? June 2nd- starter Tim Anderson debut date? September 1st White Sox All-Stars? Abreu, Sale, Rodon Mat Latos starts? 22 Number of team home runs (136 last year) 174 Runs Scored/Runs Against (622/701 last year) 698/707 Dealers choice--any other random 2016 Sox predictions other than final record Todd Frazier hits .225 with 35 home runs

Saints match Bears' offer sheet on Hill

Rollins overrated, Abreu/Q underrated

Dan Jennings in the 'pen, and I'd bat Jackson 2nd and Rollins 8th (switching them)

Derrick Rose dunked

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 01:22 PM) Bears resign WR/KR Deonte Thompson to a 1 year deal. Good. He was light years ahead of Mariani, returning-wise

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 11:30 PM) Here you go https://m.imgur.com/qRjXvpx Wanna give us the White Sox player ratings? I swear, if Eaton is a 79 or below...
