Jose Abreu

Good thing I remembered it was April Fools Day before I opened this. Last year, it was "Sale out for season with torn UCL" or something like that, and I fell for it.

The main glitch I found is when I hit a HR with a left-handed hitter on the Sox (so far LaRoche twice, Gillaspie once, and Melky as a lefty once), the commentator instantly starts talking about how Jeff Samardzija is no longer on the A's.

Does anyone have it yet? Mine should be here in a couple hours, according to the UPS tracker thing

To all who say that we have holes at C, 2B, 3B, and RF... I'd argue that none of those are holes, except maybe 2B. You can't expect every position to be played by an all-star caliber player. Those particular positions aren't covered by all-stars/proven, above-average players, but they are definitely not "holes".

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 30, 2015 -> 04:05 PM) Ugh, it looks nothing like him. Just a generic face. Thanks, Zoom, for the link to the video. I guess that last shot's not awful, but most players are completely identical to their real selves. That looks more like MLB 10 than 15. Strange.

MLB 15 shipped... can't wait!

89-74, they win the tiebreaker against Detroit

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 12:47 AM) What does this even mean? Surkamp isn't making the team because he's not one of the best seven relievers. I think he was referring to Duke/Jennings/Rodon

Good, saw that one coming

Haven't looked here in a while, it's to see Butler back and playing well/Mirotic playing well/Rose close to returning. I think we can get the 3 seed

bump because here's a new one http://m.mlb.com/cws/video/topic/9105476/v...;adbpr=53197137

And wow, Ramirez is entering his 8th year with us? Time flies

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 08:54 AM) I don't understand people who would give JR and RH a standing ovation if they waived John Danks, yet have no problem with Brad Penny taking the mound for the White Sox. The guy hasn't been good since Alexei Ramirez left Cuba. If he were lights out this spring, I maybe could understand a spot start, but he has a 6.89 ERA and a 1.787 WHIP. Exactly. Penny wasn't even that good ever, he just got a lot of wins one season.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 05:26 PM) He has to be on the DL during the season for 6 days, since it can only be retroactive 9 days before OD. April 12 is the earliest return. QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Mar 26, 2015 -> 05:27 PM) It's the first day they need a fifth starter, and it'd put him right in the spot in the rotation where they want him to end up. thanks

Pardon my ignorance, but why is 4/12 considered to be such an attractive return date? Why not 4/10, 4/11, etc.

All over, .338, 34/119

Are SoxTalk awards still a thing?

Dan Hayes @CSNHayes · 4m 4 minutes ago The Sale K Zone has competition. #WhiteSox introduce the Shark Cage for Samardzija's starts. Includes hats and "fin-shaped" K cards.

Per Dan Hayes, the Sox have introduced "The Shark Cage" for Samardzija starts. Fans will receive hats and fin-shaped "K" signs.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 12:47 PM) How can you not love Jose Abreu. He is literally everything you can want out of your star player as an organization. Thank you!

75 last Monday, snowing this Monday #ChicagoWeather

I feel like the Sox commercials and marketing have tailed off in quality over the past few years.
