As @zach_duke would say — #CHRISSALE https://t.co/tAExt55EbJ https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/722801796696018945 Sands playing 1st today

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 16, 2016 -> 06:14 PM) Who's the next man up? Is Fulmer gonna be ready this season? Miguel Gonzalez probably

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 12:00 PM) That's fine, but the 2 catchers, 2B, LF and SS aren't hitting either. Now I realize the clear distinction between Avi and the players at those positions. But at some point, this goes beyond making dugout life pleasant for cooper and ventura. you do realize melky is hitting up to .269 with a .345 obs now which makes him 4 highest average on the team

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 05:59 PM) Sale will get them back on track. Even if sale pitches the way he did last time sox will still lose if the offense can't get going

Glad I'm not at the game watching that train wreck.

QUOTE (KG#1 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 12:08 PM) Whoever they is would be wrong... 2012 they were 3-1 also. But man, it is weird to have fun watching the Sox this year... Last year was such a lazy team, good to see life in them. 2012 they weren't. We're 2-2 in first 4 games. Just looked it up, 2005 was the last time they went 3-1. Most seasons started 1-3 or 2-2

They were saying last time sox started off 3-1 was 2005

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 09:47 PM) This is where having a hitter like Rollins batting 2nd kills us. Runner on, 2 outs, Abreu on deck, but one of the worst hitters in our lineup at the plate. Prove me wrong Jimmy So who's hitting better that would be better suited for the second spot. Can't clone Abreu or Eaton and bat them in that place

Chris really is his own worst enemy at times. So much talent but he gets in the way of himself

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 10:13 PM) he's pissed. wow. And when he gets pissed he starts over throwing everything. The day he learns to calm down right away and pitch he will get alot better

Avi pulled single

Thank you Semien for the high throw

Miguel Gonzalez's deal doesn't include an opt-out. He's headed straight to Triple-A Charlotte. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/717140969875845120

Man sox got screwed in april. One day off and royals get 5 days off. Sox are going to need to come out strong in april.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 04:14 PM) It would be delicious crow if he puts six good months together, with passable defense. I think most of his playing time comes from dh. Sox really need him to produce and hopefully he will.

QUOTE (professa @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 02:12 PM) Not that we haven't seen this already this spring, but Robin confirms Rollins will bat 2nd and Melky will bat 5th start the season. https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/716333332192043008 I honestly agree with this. Melky down in the order gives a switch hitter and gives him chance to be more of a run producing bat.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 04:08 PM) Avi homer He's had a pretty good spring. Should be getting a ton of at bats

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 1, 2016 -> 06:19 PM) Wish I could watch this Ya I wish these 2 games were on tv.

I think that 25 spot changes tho after the off day. There was talk that they will probably been needing to go to a 13th pitcher with the 17 straight games. So I'm guessing someone time on the roster is temporary

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Mar 30, 2016 -> 03:24 PM) I'd DH him over Avi. He hits righties OK. While his pitches per plate appearance tend to be league normal, he has great career (& recent years) contact rates - out of zone, in zone, all of it. They aren't going to move avi to the bench. They need to see if Avi stance helps him to produce. He's going to get plenty at bats. Don't know why everyone wants to reduce avi time as much as possible right away.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 06:07 PM) How about one bullpen arm and Lawrie, for a left handed bat, that some team wants to unload as a salary dump. The Sox have salary room. I'd much rather have the strong defense up the middle, and a middle of the order left handed bat. Ethier would have been a candidate for such a trade, but the injury killed that. For me, this is more about liking Sanchez, than disliking Lawrie. I have the feeling Carlos is ready to contribute. Don't think the Sox are just going to turn around and trade off Lawrie. Let's to remember sox had the worst offense production last year at 2nd and Sanchez was a major contributor.

Sox will go with 12 pitchers, Ventura said. https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/714887560812560384

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:04 PM) Giving Davidson a spot on the 25 man roster because of a hot spring would be stupid as all hell. Especially as you'd be asking him to play 2-3 times a week at absolute most. No, if he's really "figured something out" then you ask him to go down to Charlotte and play everyday for a couple months and yea if he's slashing 280/340/500 down there in June then you think about calling him up. I agree. He needs to be playing everyday to show that he's progressing. Dh is pretty much avi's so there is no spot for him
