Jose Abreu

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 01:07 PM) I know this means nothing but why take Langford in the 4th if he's going to sit the bench all game? He'll start when we trade Forte tomorrow

I think that should have been ruled an incomplete pass. There was no definitive evidence that he had complete control of the ball when his first foot was down.

Great defensive series

Yay, a Sun-Times link!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 12:11 PM) I'm ready to declare Cutler MVP. Ok Brandon Marshall. In all seriousness, he is lightyears ahead of Clausen and thus is very valuable.

Blocked extra point

Happy 27th birthday to Derrick Rose.

Ok, I think it's just that Clausen sucks.

He's looking good. Maybe I'm thinking that because I watched Jimmy Clausen last week.

After playing in 158 games in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014, Alexei Ramirez will finish the season with 154 games played.

He finishes the season with a .287 average (hit .192 in April but .377 in September), 18 stolen bases, 131 strikeouts, 58 walks, a .361 OBP (.362 last year), and a very surprising 14 home runs and 56 runs batted in. He played in 153 games after playing in 123 last year.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 2m2 minutes ago Adam Eaton to have arthroscopic surgery on shoulder tomorrow. Said he should be fishing in 2-3 weeks. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 09:46 AM) At least Q has better value here. Last year on this very board Q for Jay Bruce was considered a good idea, and now we b**** at Hahn for signing LaRoche. Yikes.

Quintana and Rodon... so underrated, even by our own "fans"

Bumped- yet another clutch PH RBI from him tonight, and a spectacular catch last night. I hope he stays on as the 4th OF next year.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 09:26 PM) Leave it too the Sox to win this one I know right

Shuck is really a solid player.

IMO: Players who should have a spot on the 2016 roster: Matt Albers Zach Duke Erik Johnson Nate Jones Jake Petricka Jose Quintana David Robertson Carlos Rodon Chris Sale Jose Abreu Carlos Sanchez Melky Cabrera Adam Eaton Trayce Thompson ---------------------- Players who should be fringe players in 2016/ST position battles: Dan Jennings Zach Putnam Tyler Flowers Tyler Saladino Avisail Garcia ---------------------- Wild cards: Frank Montas Micah Johnson Alexei Ramirez JB Shuck ---------------------- Players who should not be on the 2016 roster but probably will be due to contracts: John Danks Adam LaRoche ---------------------- Players who should not be on the 2016 roster whatsoever: Jeff Samardzija Daniel Webb Geo Soto Gordon Beckham Mike Olt

SHUCKS.

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) Get this run in. We need an L. there you go

His career Sox ERA is 3.83... that's so much worse than I thought. 2006 is probably skewing that number though.

Oh, duh. Forgot about Stroman's return.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 3, 2015 -> 06:27 PM) Also, our ERA-FIP gap used to be much larger. The difference is now only 0.16, less than the Phillies, Rockies, Tigers, Nationals, and Padres. We're far from having the biggest gap, it's largely closed over the past couple of months. Thanks Saladino, Sanchez, and Thompson!

If he's really not gonna be on the playoff roster, they might as well trade him to us and let him finish his career here...

Buehrle is scheduled to pitch two innings tomorrow (to get to 200 on the season), and then retire. He will not be part of the Toronto Blue Jays playoff roster. source
