  1. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 08:38 PM) Danks is coming back out!? Why are Guerra and Carroll even on this damn team? Because Robin
  2. QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 08:25 PM) Has he pitched at all since getting to the bigs ? I remember he made his debut against TB in either a tie game or we were up by 1 (seems like a good time for an MLB debut).
  3. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jun 18, 2015 -> 10:44 AM) When I think about the Sox and the 2016 draft I think, hitters hitters hitters! Any interesting prep/college hitters to keep an eye on? Heck, if the Sox finish bottom ten in league, don't give up any draft picks for free agents, and get a sandwich pick for Shark, that'd be 3 picks in about rhe first 50/60. But I'd rather get a more polished prospect (s) for Samardzija.
  4. QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 09:18 AM) Agreed and there's another aspect not yet mentioned. IMHO, in order for the cubs to acquire Sale or Q the cubs likely have to over pay. If I'm the Sox, I'm not very intrigued by the idea of hearing about how well Q or Sale is pitching for the cubs for the next four plus years. It's a novel idea to talk about trading with the cubs because they are so loaded with hitting talent but in reality I doubt it ever happens. Not on this grand of scale. Besides, do we really want to give the cubs a chance at getting back at the Sox for the Karchner/ Garland trade? I wouldn't mind hearing about how good either is over there as long as whoever we got was doing and is productive.
  5. What I'd ask for for Quintana: MLB ready C, MLB ready 3B, and an MLB ready starter. For Sale: that, plus say 2-4 other prospects.
  6. QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 08:35 AM) Schwarber doesn't have a position. Sox wouldn't want him. They'd rather have a .600 OPS guy who's good in the clubhouse and can play 2 positions. If Shark is as good as claimed, he'll move the needle. Trade him and sign him back (although for #3 money, not 2). He's a catcher until proven otherwise.
  7. QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 12:30 PM) Sale gets his ERA below 3.00 with an easy win. Sale gets his ERA below 3.00 with a loss.
  8. Kottaras hitting .289 with a .468 obp. Time to go with Soto and him rest of the year. If not, make Soto primary starter.
  9. Our infield defense was sharpest when Vizquel was here (as a bench player but also somewhat of a coach). Bring him back.
  10. QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 18, 2015 -> 01:10 PM) We are a month and a half away, but let's be serious, the chatter is going to start getting louder within the next week or two. Jayson Stark wrote a column today about potential deadline targets and included Samardzija: http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/13102518...line-approaches Who would you shoot for from the Giants? Beede? Susac? I'd do Susac for Samardzija straight up. Giants have no need for a catcher as they are set long-term (obvious statement).
  11. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 18, 2015 -> 08:50 AM) White Sox baseball: Finding new & original excuses to not attend baseball games since 1920 Oh trust me. I go to my fair share of games. No excuses here. I'm just stating you can get into lower level for cheaper than 15 through stubhub or just buying a $7 upper deck ticket.
  12. QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 18, 2015 -> 06:14 AM) It would be nice to see a team take on Melky in July, move Avi to LF, and have two months of Garcia-Eaton-Thompson. Let's see what he has. And/or LaRoche and going with DH rotation with 4 OF starting OF or moving Davidson to third with Gillespie getting at bats at first and third. I know Davidson is struggling but at this point why the hell not? Could put a spark in him.
  13. Its not even a good deal to be honest. It worked 2 years ago when the Sox had a doubleheader the day of the parade and you got access to two games for 15.
  14. QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 09:17 PM) Phegley had no future with the organization, neither did Ravelo because of Abreu and LaRoche. Only real value they gave up in my opinion is Semien and he has 21 errors in 63 games. Sox had and still might have intentions of extending Shark. Exactly. And if we get something better back (trade/draft pick compensation) that turns out to be better than Semien, that's a win in my book.
  15. QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 06:42 PM) All started with Alexei because he was actually trying to pull the ball the whole at bat and hits a little nubber in front of home. While I'm not disagreeing, Eaton has ran the bases horribly all season.
  16. QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 08:32 AM) How is it that the Cubs are able to spend wildly again this period, didnt they blow past their limit last year? I believe they blew past their spending 2 years ago and couldn't spend last season/current period.
  17. QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 07:04 PM) Offseaon soxtalk "I love what Rick Hahn has done" "Rick Hahn is awesome" soxtalk now "Hahn is just KWs puppet" Soxtalk if Sox were in first place " Gotta give Hahn a ton of credit for assembling this team" I'm on the side of "I like the moves he's made. They just haven't worked." Nothing else really to it. People should have expected a little regression from guys like Eaton, Abreu and Gillaspie. I don't necessarily put blame on either.
  18. QUOTE (BamaDoc @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 10:05 AM) With so many guys signing and Fulmer unable to sign due to still playing, it makes me think they have a deal in place and just can't announce it. Yeah that deal will likely be announced at conclusion of college world series.
  19. QUOTE (LDF @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 01:54 AM) to me, a. give it a try and esp see if there is indeed a clause in it. b. i would, and i usually hate this kind of a pat on the back, leak it to the rumors page. this is kind of a show the fans the org hasn't given up. c. better yet announce it in a kind of interview the org been having with the media every few weeks. i still suspect the majority of the fans are still holding out hope of a turn around. Isn't it possible he could waive that clause to help a trade happen? That way he can get more playing time and go to a team with other Cuban born players.
  20. Unable to check platoon splits, but what are his splits against lefties? If they're good, he could be a platoon option at third with Beckham getting at bats at second.
  21. With Cueto and Hamels (and probably Kazmir ) available, Shark probably won't be worth a whole lot no matter how he pitches. Probably to the point where they are better off offering the qualifying offer and him getting at least innings eater money on the open market.
  22. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 05:18 PM) Need hitters not pitchers right now. Keep going with pitching until proven otherwise. We never develop any hitting. Wait for someone like Hawkins or Anderson to come up and do damage.
  23. QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 05:11 PM) Sox really like to rush the good ones dont they... No way whoever it is debuts this season if they aren't competing.
  24. QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 3, 2015 -> 09:09 AM) Hawk & Rowand was great. Steven Stone needs to bow out to Rowand's greatness. Lol just no
  25. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 6, 2015 -> 08:56 PM) The Tigers' announcers saying the numbers are inflated mostly due to travelling Detroit fans. Not watching the game but feel this is probably the case.
