Jose Abreu

Wow, this thread sure is official.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 25, 2014 -> 10:46 AM) The Twins will be starting Ricky Nolasco on opening day, Does everyone think that the Sox will go with the "everyday" lineup consisting of Flowers and Viciedo, or may they go with Nieto and De Aza with the RH on the mound? We see a RHP 60% of the time. With that logic, Nieto and De Aza are our regulars.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 10:44 PM) Sale and Quintana are two centerpieces of a young core that the Sox have been trying to build since midsummer, and Sox manager Robin Ventura said Monday he is happy the duo will be around for a while. Hahn said the deals enable the club to focus on other needs. “It frees us up to allocate our resources to other needs, which is beneficial, and takes a couple of other things off our to-do list, which is always nice,” Hahn said. www.chicagotribune.com/sports Which needs?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) Is Contreras still in MLB? I thought he got hurt. I copied and pasted that from Wiki, removing Sox players. I'm pretty sure he was recently released (?)

Should've explained my list more lol.

Jon Morosi @jonmorosi 44s Breaking News: #WhiteSox pushing for the following players, are willing to offer Adam Dunn: Yonder Alonso Yuniesky Betancourt Francisley Bueno Yoenis Céspedes Aroldis Chapman José Contreras Yunel Escobar José Fernández Onelki García Yasmani Grandal Alexander Guerrero Adeiny Hechavarria José Iglesias Leonys Martín Yunesky Maya Kendrys Morales Brayan Peña Yasiel Puig Henry Urrutia Raúl Valdés Erisbel Arruebarruena

Ramirez, Abreu, Nieto, Viciedo... damn. #CubanCrushers It'll be interesting to see them all be in the starting lineup.

Sounds like we're doing well.

Isn't this close to the time we signed Sale last year? Or was that during the season?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 02:18 PM) A great question is how much do you think Scherzer would have gotten if he were on the FA market. No more than 5/125. I still think last year was a fluke and he'll return to his 11-11/3.80 ERA/3.75 run support this year.

When I got this B/R update on my phone, I literally screamed of excitement. I don't know if the Subway employee enjoyed it.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Mar 23, 2014 -> 06:41 PM) Downs = end of career Linebrink. Scott Linebrink. There's a name I thought I'd never hear again.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Mar 23, 2014 -> 07:14 PM) It's likely to get ugly, early, for him at the Cell if he starts slowly. No one will enjoy that. That is what's inevitable. If we trade him, we're paying almost 100% of his salary.

Adam Dunn will not be traded.

Also, how are guys like Zach Putnam and Blake Tekotte still there?

Jordan really deserved to stay.

Still waiting for the big 3B/IF backup battle as well as the De Aza/Viciedo/(Jor[Dan)ks] battle.

Looks like Nieto has a real shot VS Hector. Also I find it encouraging that Micah Johnson is still up.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Mar 19, 2014 -> 11:03 AM) WHITE SOX MAKE SIX ROSTER MOVES FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Wednesday, March 19, 2014 GLENDALE, Ariz. – Prior to today’s game vs. the Angels, the Chicago White Sox made the following six roster moves: · Optioned C Josh Phegley, RHP Andre Rienzo and LHP Eric Surkamp to Class AAA Charlotte; · Reassigned RHP Chris Beck, INF Andy Wilkins and RHP Cody Winiarski to minor-league camp. With the moves, the White Sox have 38 players remaining in major-league camp: 17 pitchers, three catchers, 12 infielders and six outfielders. Phegley, Rienzo, and Surkamp are surprising. How is Axelrod still up?

OT: So is this our slogan? http://m.mlb.com/video/v31571201/white-sox...day-is-march-31

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Mar 18, 2014 -> 05:58 PM) Well, that's why we'd trade Viciedo. Tabata is 25 and already on an affordable extension. And is a plus defender. So he's better than all of our extras. OK, fine. We exchange an outfielder for an outfielder... problem solved!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 16, 2014 -> 08:41 PM) Right now, it's between Boggs/Cleto/Webb/Petricka/Rienzo for the last 2 spots. Give me Boggs and Webb.

Scot Gregor @scotgregor Mar 14 Sox manager R Ventura said there's a heavy layer off frost, warning tracks are bad and the Sox' 3/30 home workout likely to be scrapped So we're scratching the 3/30 workout yet we plan on playing a real game on the same field the next day?
