QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 08:28 PM) This is going to kill whatever trade value he has right now. Way too premature to call him up now. If they really see him as a reliever why not give him a few weeks in the AAA pen to make sure he can handle the jump? I was much more confident about Anderson (but slightly concerned about the walk rate going forward) but I don't see this going well for Fulmer his first time around. I guess we are not trading for any impact bats if this means Fulmer is going to stay with the team. Dont think sox would be trading fulmer unless its a true bat thats under control. I've read fulmer is definitely bullpen ready now. Let him get his taste now then getting going into rotation next year.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 07:54 PM) It isn't. Carroll's DFA opened up the spot for Turner to come in. False 40 man roster is full. Carroll's spot was taken by fulmer

3-4 now. 2 singles and homer

Ventura said Morneau would face primarily right-handers at the outset, but that of course can change https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/754106412439965696

Collins 2-3 in winston salem with a single and 3 run homer

Rick Hahn said #WhiteSox continue to look for pieces. Knew it would be a difficult market. "It's a strong seller's market." https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/754080280076398592

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 04:59 PM) Burns was just designated by Oakland today. He's still fairly young, has elite speed, and is a solid defender. What do you guys think? Should the Sox try and make a move for him? I think he'd be better than Shuck in CF. He was optioned not dfa

As for possible additions from outside org, Hahn said 'we are having conversations daily looking to improve in 2016 and beyond'' https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/754078023310151680

Morneau not in Birminghams lineup tonight

RHP Scott Carroll has been outrighted to Charlotte. 40-man roster goes to 39. https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/753677355260846080

Sox should have update on Austin Jackson shortly after the break. https://t.co/D53KTdyldH https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/753637540947648512

Sources: #WhiteSox, unsure of Austin Jackson’s prognosis, are checking into possible trades for CFer. Jackson had knee surgery on June 10. https://twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/753631619202838528

Morneau 1-3 with 2 walks sofar tonight

QUOTE (MDWhiteSoxFan @ Jul 13, 2016 -> 03:04 PM) DHing him could mean they use a rotating DH giving players days off from the field. Sox could be honestly using a rotating dh now with him and arent. Problem is they dont have a good bat to be backing up like a zobrist. But you look at having a true dh like ortiz thats a huge bat. Problem sox are in the middle of not having a big bat at dh or having a good bat thats on the bench.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 08:49 PM) Burdi is far from being ready. He looks like he needs at least 1 year in the minors so not before middle of next season. And with how much Fulmer has struggled in AA he needs at least another year in the minors if he's going to be a starter. If he finishes strong in AA then he can start next year at AAA and be an early call up if he has success. Look at a guy like Mengden in Oakland who basically dominated AA and AAA this year and he has only been mediocre at the major league level. It's a big step to make. Its looking like fulmer and burdi will be up this year unless they totally bomb.

Talked to scout who saw Carson Fulmer during his rough stretch (34 BB in 46 IP) & again yesterday. "Much better." MLB ready out of 'pen. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/752585832591085569

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 10, 2016 -> 12:15 AM) The important thing is he got 4 AB's for the first time.Maybe one more game and he'll start hitting. Actually its the second time hes gotten 4 at bats. Had 4 at bats on the 7th

Sox need a bat but biggest bats they can aquire is eaton and abreu hitting more to their career norms would be a huge help

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 9, 2016 -> 09:41 AM) Hopefully this is just a way to grab him an extra rest and manage his innings load. Fulmer? Fulmer one start maybe and then moved to pen when Rodon comes back

White Sox place Carlos Rodon on 15-day DL (retroactive to July 6) with sprained left wrist. Recall right-hander Tommy Kahnle. https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/751786879012462593

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jul 8, 2016 -> 08:06 PM) Pitchers throw on the side anyway. He can throw an inning in the All Star game and then throw Saturday or Sunday and it is extended rest. If he pitches Sunday then he will be lined up to pitch the Wednesday game vs the cubs on espn

http://www.csnchicago.com/chicago-white-so...u-will-be-ready Morneau will go to Birmingham on sunday cause Charlottes all star break starts monday. Could get 30 at bats on Wednesday and could sorta be ready for next weekends series for angels but not sure yet

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 8, 2016 -> 02:12 PM) Brewers need a 3rd baseman bad since they have to rely on Will Middlebrooks and even Jake Elmore. If the Sox want to be bold they could offer Brett Lawrie or Saladino . If Brewers took Lawrie ,Saladino probably become starting 2nd baseman. Of course doubtful Lawrie alone would do it.Maybe also offer Trey M.,Courtney Hawkins. Lucroy is signed through 2016 with an option for 2017 and is still cheap . Lawrie only signed through 2016 so Sox would be gaining the extra year and better player hence the need to give the Brewers some controllable pieces also. Saladino isn't arbitration eligible until 2019 so maybe Brewers would prefer him over Lawrie. Lawrie has arbitration still in 2017 so he wont be a free agent till 2018. Anthing with lucroy would be starting with fulmer or anderson. Dont think sox are willing to give them up for a 1yr and half of control

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 7, 2016 -> 07:26 PM) Morneau with a triple tonight http://m.milb.com/video/907111583/?vref=redirector Link of the video

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jul 8, 2016 -> 09:24 AM) Sale should have 12+ Ks tonight. The Braves are comically bad. How many for flowers? Lol
