Been seeing maybe Manny acta name popping up for bench coach

Dan Hayes said alexei had some personal issues this year. I'm guessing minnie had an effect this year.

Apparently all 4 had surgeries and should be ready to go for regular training in december. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...1103-story.html

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 21, 2015 -> 04:43 PM) DH, C, 3B, and maybe 2B are what we really need to work on. I would also like to grab another SP (Sale, Q, Rodon, Johnson, FA P), move Danks to the bullpen or trade him for nothing. Sox aren't going to move Danks to the pen and aren't going to eat his contract to trade him. Will likely be a august move when he has contract is alot lower.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 7, 2015 -> 06:45 PM) If they make any moves, I don't see them dealing anyone good from the MLB roster (maybe Q if they're blown away?). I would be ok dealing any prospect not named Fulmer or Anderson as I see any move that will be made to be more likely a quantity over quality deal. If we can get a bat for the price of Montas, Micah, Hawkins(, Michaelczewski if its a 3B back) I would pull the trigger in a heartbeat. The thing with trading Quintana is your should get multiple top prospects back to fill multiple positions. The farm system is thin still and trading a bunch of prospects to get one bats is the wrong way of going. One bat is not going to fix the linup with to many holes. Plus those prospects listed are not going to get you a big bat that's needed.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 05:19 PM) We had a better record than them a couple days before the deadline. Who knows what would have happened if we were buyers... Would have needed a couple bats but with shark totally going to crap after deadline don't think much would have happened. Offense had to many holes through the year.

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 05:10 PM) Looks like... Astros at Yankees....winner plays Royals Rangers at Blue Jays and Cubs at Pirates...winner plays Cardinals Mets at Dodgers Kinda funny how many people including here said why did the Rangers get Hamels at the deadline when they were 50-52. This is why

Just a cleanup procedure http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2015/09/30/micah-...rgery-thursday/

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 26, 2015 -> 07:02 PM) Nail in the coffin for RV. 3 straight losing seasons. He needs to be fired ASAP. Let's do remember the 2 years before were rebuilding years. This year should have been another but they decided to go for it and it back fired

Kinda funny how many peeps on here didn't want the Sox to get Andrew miller and wanted someone else like duke instead. Laroche was one of my feel disappointed when I saw that the Sox signed him.

The issue is it took till the all-star break and beyond for alexei to start producing offensively. With how bad this teams has been offensively this year alexei has been part of the issue. Waiting for him to finally produce till after the all star break is a huge issue. I really hope the sox don't pick up his option. If they want to decline it and give him a cheaper 1 yr deal ok but pay 10 million for a player declining and maybe he eventually produces ar some point of the year with the sox in huge need of offense is a big issue.

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Sep 7, 2015 -> 12:32 PM) I think cooper needs to go more than Williams or Hahn. I disagree with this. Pitching hasn't been the issue all year. Steverson should have been the first to go since that's been one of the areas that's killed this team. Then robin and kenny.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Sep 6, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) 0 plate discipline or pitch recognition and horrible defense makes a stinker in my book And yet still in top offensive categories on the team which isn't saying much for how bad offensive the team is but is providing something

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Sep 6, 2015 -> 01:56 PM) Brantly not looking good either.. Really shows why guys like Avi Garcia can hit so well in AAA and stink it up in the majors considering how well Olt and Brantly did this year Really not sure how you can say Avi has stink it up in the majors. Figuring it's his first full year offensively i'll take what he's given the sox for how many were crap for most of the year. He's still young and has potential.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 5, 2015 -> 02:39 PM) nice question. but that brings up an interesting question. if he does, then why did they not send him to the minors. Apparently he got injured and was sent down for dl. Then you have bryant who's is a heck of alot better so really no need for him on the roster. Sox on the other hand are so bad at 3rd base with depth they could use him.

Olt is expected to join the White Sox major league roster this coming week https://twitter.com/MLBBruceLevine/status/640236711822409729

I don't know of the whole cooper/shark is a issue. Only place I've heard it is from this post and that coming from Dave's Kaplan of all people I take with a grain of salt. Kaplan is a pompous a** and huge cubs homer so I couldn't take anything he says about the sox being legit. That's my take lol

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 10:16 PM) Please no. His bat sucks. I'd rather sign a 1 year deal with vet who at least provides a decent bat. Saladino is a utility player. Defensive replacement. I feel the same way about sanchez. I still think micah will be the better offense of the 2

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 09:49 PM) Ventura threw out a s*** lineup guys. It was hilariously bad. It's been s*** lineup for most of the year. Can't figure out how the hitting coach has a job still

#SoxStats: Tonight marks Sale's 13th start of the season with 10-plus strikeouts, the most in a season since Randy Johnson in '04 (also 13). https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/638898082113912832
