Have a bet on Robert HR and Sox win at +600. Just had a feeling about him today...let’s go Sox

Zack Collins to ATS, Madrigal recalled from IL
Purely hypothetical...if you could trade Vaughn for a TOR starter with 2+ years of control would you? Basically keep the lineup how it is except replace EE with a resigned McCann next year. Collins steps into a lesser version of McCann's role this year.

Zack Collins to ATS, Madrigal recalled from IL
got ya, thanks Yolmer and Goins on the roster seems a little redundant. I liked Collins on the roster for the sake of having a 3rd C to get McCann’s bat in the lineup more with Yaz at DH (or vice versa). He’s been heating up a little so guess Ricky is sticking with EE as full time DH.

Wait, so they left Gonzalez on the majors roster? Even after Dyson? I swear if Eloy hurt himself....

White Sox Acquire Jarrod Dyson from PIT
Exactly. Can’t have Eloy in LF in key late inning defensive situations. Plus as others have said, he’s a weapon on 2B in extra innings.

8-23 GT: Sox @ Cubs (1:20pm)
Worst coach in baseball...going back out for the inning was dumb. No pen up is criminal. Fire this idiot
-
8-22 GT: Sox @ Cubs (7:15pm)
Please just don’t ground into 2. Fly ball, that’s all you have to do Mazara
-
8-22 GT: Sox @ Cubs (7:15pm)
Gotta put both contract and past success aside and put McCann in the lineup more. EE isn’t what he used to be. Collins looked more than good enough to me to be relied on as an Incase or injury backup C if McCann/Yaz are DH’ing.

8-22 GT: Sox @ Cubs (7:15pm)
Ok maybe Edwin is more washed than I thought...he got 3 pitches essentially down the middle that should have been hit to the street and he didn’t put any in play.

8-22 GT: Sox @ Cubs (7:15pm)
Get Foster up ASAP

8-22 GT: Sox @ Cubs (7:15pm)
Tell him to just stay in the stretch next inning? Maybe it was just 1st batter jitters but he was obviously throwing much better out of the stretch
-
How much longer do you wait on EE and Mazara?
Mazara should be given a very short leash while Engel is still hitting. Not sure there’s a single thing Mazara is doing better than Engel right now EE at least has a much better track record and has shown some flashes. Although McCann is getting harder and harder to keep out of the lineup. EE should maybe get 2 days off a week with Yaz and Abreu aalternating getting a day off a week. Keeps the older guys fresh and McCann gets 3 starts a week

8-19 GT: Tigers @ Sox
1st start in a long time back off of TJ. You might have a point if this was mid-season and you’re looking for Dunning to take the next step...we’re still on step 1 with a young pitcher. No need for a test right away
-
8-19 GT: Tigers @ Sox
Short sighted for the good of the team and short sighted for Dunning’s well being really. He didn’t need to be laboring through a strenuous inning his 1st start back in well over a year.
-
8-19 GT: Tigers @ Sox
Steve Stone is saying it a full inning ago and it was plain to see...Dunning was tired and shouldn’t have even gone out for that inning. Bad coaching. No idea how they didn’t see it
-
8-19 GT: Tigers @ Sox
Pen needs to be up now. Kid is running out of gas quick
-
8-19 GT: Tigers @ Sox
Very good pitch placement from Dunning that inning. Even the double was in a pretty good spot

Sox call up Luis Gonzalez
Ya if we are going to be dumping any bad FA signings from this off-season I’d be much more willing to dump Cisheck. I don’t see him being able to suddenly miss bats with his slow junk, EE at least has a shot to get hot and hit some HR’s.
-
Sox call up Luis Gonzalez
He was brought up when Anderson was DFA’d But I see my error...Luery was actually put on the DL on the 11th and TA was activated. I was counting Luery going to the 45 DL as a separate move when it didn’t have any affect on the active roster. Flores was indeed brought up and sent down as the 29th man. As he just pointed out, thanks
-
Sox call up Luis Gonzalez
Right, but going by the transaction page on the White Sox website it doesn’t appear we ever had 29? Luery and Hamilton went on the DL on the 15th...Cuthbert and Flores are the only additions after that and Flores got sent back down yesterday. I very easily could be missing something though.
-
Sox call up Luis Gonzalez
Could be wrong, but didn’t we have an open roster spot? Looking at the transaction page- both Luery and Hamilton went on the DL and Flores and Cuthbert were brought up...but we got an extra spot because of the double header so once Flores was sent back down there was an open spot. Maybe?

Mendick vs Madrigal
Not a White Sox season unless an under talented bench player has a small amount of success and fans then hype said player up to be more than he is. Wouldn’t shock me if Mendick is playing with Saladino, Delmonico and Palka in a couple of years.
