Jose Abreu

We're getting close to the season and I've said this 100 times but I hate it so I'll say it again. We have De Aza, Viciedo, and Jordan Danks (who's been killing it) battling for two spots. Then we have Gillaspie, Davidson, Semien, Keppinger, and L. Garcia battling for 1-2 spots. Just trade De Aza and one of Gillaspenger to make this easier.

Jose Abreu- 8 Keon Barnum- 1 Rangel Ravelo- 0 Marcus Semien- 4 Micah Johnson- 6 Carlos Sanchez- 2 Leury Garcia- 3 Clelius Rondon- 1 Connor Gillaspie- 3.5- would have been more but in 2016 he injures his left leg chasing a tornado during the All-Star break (his hobby is tornado chasing) Matt Davidson- 5 Trey Michalzsewski- 0 Avisail Garcia- 6 Dayan Viciedo- 7 Adam Eaton- 6 Jordan Danks- 4 Jared Mitchell- 0 Trayce Thompson- 4 Keenyn Walker- 4 Adam Engel- 0 Jacob May- 0 --- Chris Sale- 8.5 Jose Quintana- 6 Erik Johnson- 6 Chris Beck- 4 Scott Snodgress- 3 Daniel Webb- 4 Nate Jones- 5

Given what I saw from him on Tuesday afternoon at Camelback Ranch, I think they had good cause for such optimism, as Abreu looks like he can really hit... No love for Garcia eh?

OT: Am I the only one who still wants us to do whatever it takes outside of Sale/Abreu/Garcia to land Giancarlo Stanton?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 02:10 PM) New list of guys who seem like they should be pitching in AAA this year (no particular order)... Tony Pena Jr That's two pitching staffs PLUS a couple more guys. I'm guessing you'll see a whole bunch of other trades, for cash or some other org need, between now and 3/31. *** = Out of Options The same #57 Tony Pena from 10/11?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 8, 2014 -> 03:04 PM) Comiskey Park Hitmen ‏@CPHSox 2m Andre Reinzo's 03/08 #SpringTraining line: 3.0 IP, 2H, 1R, 1ER, ZERO BB, 5K. 1.80 ERA. #WhiteSox @MLBBrasil @spinballnet @andre_rienzo That's impossible. 1 ER over 3 IP is a 3.00 ERA.

Keep Viciedo, trade De Aza. Viciedo went .265/14/56 in just 124 games last year. Give him a chance. We know he has a ton of power in him (2012).

he'll be fine

Ervin Santana signs 1Y, $14MM deal with unidentified AL club. Orioles and Royals say it's not them. 1 in 13 chance it's us.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 01:35 PM) Seems there is some buzz picking up nationally for your Chicago White Sox, Eaton, Abreu, Garcia and a healthy Danks seem to have piqued interest. Locally**

About damn time

Usually, when we're expected by our own fans to do s*** (2007, 2013), we suck. But when our White Sox faithful think we're going to suck (2005, 2008, 2014?), we perform well. Put me at over.

Ties are fun huh?

Liddi and Mitchell strike out, inning over.

Pedroza grounds out but MJ scores. Tie game!

Johnson steals second, advances to 3rd on error.

Micah Johnson singles, he's 3-5. One on, no out, 6-5 KCR, Herrera on the mound, Jamie Pedroza at the dish

6-5 KCR

JorDanks with a 9th inning bomb

It's in Spanish but has English subtitles and is over 11 minutes long. I'm having trouble viewing it, any interesting tidbits?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 07:38 PM) Uh......a top 10-20 hitter in MLB? If that ends up being true, then Rick Hahn won the offseason. Think about it. The top 10-20 hitters in MLB are very good, but Abreu can easily get there.

Surprised McDade and Omogrosso are goners at this stage.
