  1. QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:42 PM) There is no freaking way that Saladino should DH. Even if he weren't our only infield defensive sub, his .649 OPS should immediately disqualify him. You would rather see Coats and Shuck get every day at bats? Unfortunately those are the only other 2 options currently. We'd all rather they make a trade for someone else but it's obviously not happening when we want it to.
  2. QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) Plus Saladino vis your only infield sub You can call someone else up like Garcia or Sanchez? It's not really impossible. Sure, today he may be but it doesn't mean he has to be all the time.
  3. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:31 PM) Um you can't do that during the game? lol No f***ing s*** Sherlock. Call up someone else up for a bench spot between games (as it should obviously be implied). Seriously can't believe I had to lay it out more clearly.
  4. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:28 PM) The point is, what if someone gets hurt? Call up someone else for the bench. Remove either the extra reliever or Shuck/Coats.
  5. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:22 PM) Why would you DH your second best defensive player To get his bat in the lineup? Not like he comes in late in games as a defensive sub for anyone. And then just call up someone like Garcia to be on the bench just incase.
  6. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) Now that we have Anderson, would any of you be for Saladino everyday DH? We need his bat in this gawdawful lineup. Given the alternatives, why the hell not.
  7. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:02 PM) Can Saladino play right field? I'd love to get him some more at bats. Right field? Was just about to ask if he could possibly play center. Start having him shag fly balls during batting practice! In all seriousness though, I could see him start preparing for some outfield time in the off-season.
  8. He tweeted: #windycitybound. Do you think that means he just means he's playing for a Chicago team or that he is actually on his way to Chicago to join our 25-man roster?
  9. QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) This guy looks like he should be working for Apple not pitching in the majors. He looks like a hipster.,
  10. QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 08:39 PM) Fulmer pitching very well again tonight. That's encouraging.
  11. Anderson moving down the line = secondary lead/getting in position to score on ball in dirt.
  12. Jesus f***ing christ
  13. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 06:44 PM) Thanks for the correction. I will leave it up there just to piss you off Something I'd do haha
  14. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 06:29 PM) They don't give up on guys like Beckham, Viciedo and Jared Mitchell until at least 2 years too late...you can forget about Shields going anywhere. There has to be a mechanical or tipping pitches issue in there somewhere. They'll figure it out eventually. What?
  15. QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 04:48 PM) Sure they do. They just don't want to give up all that talent. There's a difference between not having enough talent to get a deal done as opposed to not wanting to deal said talent. They may have enough but it would hurt us while another team could potentially beat our offer and take less of a hit o their system.
  16. I was going to suggest earlier that Frazier get a day off but thought maybe not since they're playing division rivals. Though the way Frazier has been swinging, we may prefer Saladino. Edit: and yes I disagree with Avi in the outfield. Don't mind him DHing with current roster.
  17. QUOTE (Condor13 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 01:42 PM) I'm hoping this is the lineup tonight Anderson Eaton Melky Abreu Frazier Lawrie Avi DH Catcher Schuck RF For me, switch Abreu and Melky. Everything else is fine.
  18. QUOTE (Footlongcomiskeydog @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 10:42 AM) Danish's stuff looks completely underwhelming. Does he project as a future starter or reliever? Maybe just a long relief guy like Scott Carroll? Kinda disappointed that he was brought up straight from AA. Did not help whatever trade value he might have had. I don't think a couple games in his first mlb stint are going to hurt his trade value. If so not by much.
  19. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 10:18 AM) http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/anderso...-for-white-sox/ Hopefully for another bench player.
  20. QUOTE (Lillian @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:31 AM) To respond to a few of your valid points: My expectations for Morneau are not really that high, although I never actually stated them. I would expect him to be a decent average hitter, with an OBP of .350 or better, and represent at least a power threat. "Wiping out the remainder of the farm system" is a legitimate concern, but then what exactly is there that is so valuable? That brings us to the more valid question regarding what the Brewers would be willing to accept. I think the key would be taking on all of the Braun salary. Where Anderson bats is not an issue for me. I merely put him at the top, because that seems to be the plan. If he bats 9TH, that would mean that the top 6 hitters would all potentially be .350 OBP hitters. OBP is perhaps the biggest problem with this current roster. I think it's just a reference to you plugging him right in the 4th spot. I'm expecting like 6 or 7 (and that isn't with the lineup you have).
  21. QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:36 AM) If Pedro Martinez is tweeting how to do a better job... Well... Ya. It would be wise to take advice from one of the best pitchers of all time.
  22. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 11:12 PM) How many of those hits are singles I was going to say at least half of those have to be homers.
  23. QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 11:08 PM) I hate these extra innings games. This one feels worse since it's already been so long.
  24. I'm nervous...was hoping the ball would hit the bag.
  25. Amazing that it's a close game.
