Jose Abreu

Vaughn is a very good defensive 1B. I really don't know how it got in some posters' heads that he's a DH.

I don’t care if every algorithm indicates that bunting is almost never a good decision, it’s the way it’s always been, damn it!

The wins are nice but it’s also telling that they keep winning in spite of the coaching decisions (i.e. calling for a bunt in the bottom of the 9th inning with Rondon, pinch hitting for Cordell instead of Engel in the 7th, etc)

Meh. It sucks that we won’t be able to trade him for value but I don’t think he was ever gonna stay here after his contract is up. I’ve never been less fazed by a season ending injury to one of my team’s best pitchers for that reason. Kopech, on the other hand, was devastating. Dunning too.

These awards, unless someone goes on a crazy power streak, tend to go to guys with good #battingaverage

When people talk about the team's drafting, this pick is conveniently ignored. From a value standpoint to date, it's one of the best picks in that entire draft.

Jose Ruiz, in September

UNVERIFIED: Eloy Jimenez to miss at most 2 weeks.

Lambert or Flores, for sure.

On his blog, WSD said he has "reason to believe" Rodon will need surgery

Well, if your 49 win prediction for the 2018 season is any indication, I think we’ll be fine

@Y2Jimmy0 wrote an awesome piece on this possibility. https://theloopsports.com/2019/05/02/white-sox-does-a-marcus-stroman-acquisition-make-sense/

Nah you're good, no need to apologize. I know that the learn baseball stuff was more directed to the other guy anyway. I still disagree with you, and not sure I'd like to discuss it further since I highly doubt it would get anywhere (given how much we have already tried). I have no issues with a disagreement like that, as long as it doesn't get personal, which it didn't since you're a good poster too

Mission successful lol

Runner was slower than Tim Anderson ?

#HireOzzie

Yes

Oh right. I had forgotten about that to be honest.

fixed

Alonso will be traded, if I had to guess. There's definitely a market for a 1B/DH whose xOPS right now is somewhere in the .830s.

Even worse, Engel will get starts in CF while Robert rides the pine

Preach. It's baseball, not football. I'll never understand the people who get upset over these things. The Sox swept the 90 win Rays in Tampa last summer, too.

Enjoy AAA, Thyago. Meanwhile we're gonna keep Fulmer up so that he can set the MLB record for walks by a reliever.

Yes, they do. He's doing pretty well

Stephens has like a 9 ERA in AAA. Bring up Lambert or Flores honestly.
