QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) Make it a bigger deal. AJP and Flowers, and Beckham for Navarro, Avila, and either Lawrie or Frasor. Don't forget Emilio Bonifacio who was re-signed by Atlanta.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 12:12 PM) How many runs can Latos give up today before he will be referred to as trash that needs to be replaced? It's amazing isn't it? Just 2 weeks ago (not even) everyone was hating on him but now that he's had one good game against a bad team in a pitcher friendly ballpark he's fine in the rotation.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) CF Eaton LF Cabrera 1B Abreu 3B Frazier 2B Lawrie C Navarro DH Garcia RF Shuck SS Saladino I like this. Get as lefty as possible against Santana (minus Rollins being in).

Someone find me a link to stream from at work....and go.....

The only time he ever really hits is when he's fat throughout his career. Anytime the Giants asked to lose weight, he'd come in to camp slimmed down and not hit and then get progressively fatter as the season went by. If he's released and only cost close to half a million, I'd take him

How many times has Duke come in this year, given up a hit or walk to a lefty then promptly removed?

Was not big on Aiken nor Kolek. Not a fan of high school pitchers as first pick. Wanted Rodon and if not him, Nola.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 01:43 PM) Talent evaluation is much easier when you have a few hundred million dollars backing you up, and burying your mistakes. True. And Thompson wouldn't even be up right now if it wasn't for Ethier's injury.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 11:37 AM) We wouldn't have one of Fulmer/Anderson though, with COL's asking price Yeah and we don't really have many other enticing pieces. Colorado would and should ask for one of them.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 11:28 AM) But wouldn't we have to give Anderson/something good up for him? That's not a risk I'd like to take Yeah and the only way I'd be comfortable trading Anderson away for another position of need is if Saladino was able to be a great defender and solid hitter. Of course we wouldn't know that til the end of the season and if he was playing everyday. I think it's more likely they trade for Bruce, maybe Reddick.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 11:19 AM) CarGo is the obvious solution if the team is serious about winning IMO. Just imagine the lineup if he replaced Avi. Eaton Melky Abreu Frazier CarGo Lawrie Navarro Rollins Jackson Hell by the time they trade for him maybe Anderson at short.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 10:26 PM) Call me in four more weeks. Agree. The internal options aren't good, no one better is really available yet. Unless we overpay, we're not getting a big bat until June/July.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 10:14 AM) Yep. Should be fun regardless, but I already try to avoid April/May night games as much as possible for the sox, hurts to use one on the cubs. I try as well. Easier now that I have a regular 8-4:30 job. Makes me not really want to go out and get home too late for games (live in South suburbs so it's not too bad of a trip but still).

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 10:06 AM) Good f***ing Riddance. This.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) Could be worse guys. i have a friend in town and everyone organized to go to a baseball game since he loves baseball. Sox aren't home tonight. Ouch. Well on the bright side you can get drunk and enjoy time with your friends I suppose.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 07:18 AM) Same with the Hawks game. I'm sure alot of people in the Chicago land area are going to be flipping back and forth. (Sox/Cubs fans, the real diehard Bulls fans.. , Kobe fans, people who do/don't wanna see Golden State break the Bulls 72-10 record, etc. Busy sports day tonight) Going to a bar is ideal for days like today haha I'm sure I'll be at the bar a lot over the next couple weeks/months with friends watching the Hawks and our preference of baseball team sox and cubs. Works perfect with lots of tvs.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 07:06 AM) Baseball > Hockey Ehhh in your opinion maybe. But to anyone who enjoys both: Playoff game > regular season game when there's abut 150 or so left. Seriously. It's a long season.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 10:03 PM) I'll find the exact tweet, but he said something like "He's the closest athlete physically to Mike Trout that I've ever seen". That's not comparing hitting tools. More of speed and defense most likely based on his size. Trout's a pretty thick dude who can cover some ground.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 03:21 PM) Saladino and Thompson are two leading candidates. Yikes.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 09:52 AM) He signed a minor league deal with the Padres. Figure he'll get called up soon for them. Exactly. He can opt out for a mlb deal but Padres get first crack at adding him.

Call Loney's agent and let him know he can have a major league role here?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 12, 2016 -> 08:02 AM) Another pitcher would be far more useful. Aumont or someone. Agreed.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 05:35 PM) I have the same amount of faith I've had in Danks for 3 seasons now. He's going to eat some innings, have some good games and get shelled in a couple which makes him just fine at the bottom of the rotation. He's fine for a fifth starter. He's not fine for someone who makes that much money however (though you could point out worse contracts for guys with similar/worse results as him).

Imagine if the Sox had stood pat and not signed Jackson like some on here wanted. After LaRoche retirement, our outfield would be the same as last year and a Sands/Ishikawa platoon would be the DH. (Shivers)

I believe Archer is pitching Friday as well so makes sense.
