QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 09:29 AM) Agree with this. Just glad we've moved out of the "Robertson for Severino" territory here. Especially since Collins is improving defensively (so far anyway).

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 09:12 AM) not sure which thread to say it in, but adam eaton has been awesome so far Yeah I looked yesterday since my buddy (who has Harper on his fantasy team) feels the need to tell me every time he hits a homer. So I kinda figured Eaton has a lot of runs scored already on the season and checking his stats, I am correct. It's comical how one-sided the media and fans of other teams said that deal was. OBP is .429 and he's scored 14 runs already for them in 14 games. Does he belong in a corner spot? Yes and he likely will be next year since Werth's contract expires this season.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 08:33 AM) It was the right thing to do. I think the league looks at some questionable scoring decisions these days. OTOH, just because the Sox boot the ball around doesn't excuse the homer. It seems the past several years, White Sox errors lead to runs by the bundle. Pitchers have to step up and pick up the defense once in a while. But he certainly didn't deserve the earned runs there. Yeah on Yahoo for fantasy baseball, there's always a list of stat changes every week so it seems like it is more common that stats change. They usually involve hits and ER so probably similar situations to what happened in our game.

If anyone missed the broadcast yesterday, it was announced that a hit that lead to a bunch of runs in one inning was changed to an error. His era is like 2 runs lower because of it.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 05:23 PM) Nats moving on from Treinen as closer. Just gotta get past Kelley and Glover now!

Best news regarding game 1 of this series.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 10:29 AM) Perhaps, although I'd consider Thompson to be a AAAA player at this point Eh he's a major league platoon/4th OF.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 07:43 PM) He is so much better than advertised at dealing with the running game it's absurd. Seriously. If he can be about a 20-25 homer guy with a high obp and play solid/great defense, it's a win.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 01:49 AM) Covey goes down when Rodon comes back. Petricka to Charlotte for rehab? As for Burdi and Beck, they can stay in Charlotte since there is no rush to bring them up. Covey would have to clear waivers and be rejected by the A's before he goes back to the minors since he's a rule 5 guy.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 10:04 PM) Great 2.5 weeks, but no way. It's only been 2 weeks really haha

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 02:01 PM) wow. There goes a Q suitor. Exactly my thoughts.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 01:18 PM) MLB Trade Rumors‏ @mlbtraderumors 2h2 hours ago Rich Hill's ongoing blister problems have again sent the #Dodgers lefty to the 10-day DL https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/04/rich-hill-heads-back-to-10-day-dl.html …://https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017...0-day-dl.html …://https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017...0-day-dl.html … And are apparently considering putting him in the bullpen haha

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:54 PM) Baseball America Thanks. Was it known months in advance that they had agreements in place prior to the J2 signing periods? I can't remember.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:44 PM) This doesn't change anything. He was always likely to be cleared in this current period. It's tough for MLB to justify holding him out until J2 because he's established residency. The Sox have no excuse not to get him if they want him. They should be able to outspend San Diego, Houston, St. Louis, and Cincinnati. They also don't have any agreements for top players in next period which tells me they will be all in on this guy. If they miss on him, and then don't have agreements with guys for upcoming J2 period, they've really botched this thing. I think they are one of the primary contenders for him like Badler confirmed on twitter today. Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but where have you seen this?

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:11 PM) What's the point of you following me around and harrassing me? I don't expect every post on a forum to be a coherent, well thought out argument but if you're going to come at someone personally and make a bunch of claims because you disagree with them then at least back it up accordingly. Providing general context like occupation about an individual in the news is entirely normal. You can continue to support a violent, community disturbing porn actress on account of her affiliation to a terroirst group that you Feel the need to defend. I'll support her right to employ herself in any way she seems fit. Just don't expect me to respond to anymore of your animosity-fueled posts. That's true. Look at the guy who got taken off the plane last week.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:09 PM) So...is this good or bad news for the Sox? I'm thinking bad unless they are willing to sign him at any cost.

QUOTE (Nokona @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 11:59 AM) They're playing like s*** but we're gonna hear about Schwarber's bunt non-stop for the next 2 weeks Shoulda swiped the glove on the dirt in front of the ball to help make it go foul.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 10:38 AM) Cain is a really good player, but I'd be hesitant to sign a player who will be 32 years old next April to a long term deal He likely has a couple quality seasons left before he goes into decline and it's generally not worth paying top dollar for that QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 10:41 AM) Cain is the type of player whose skillset doesn't age well anyway. I thought it was obvious he was referring to Cain as just a rental piece.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 08:28 PM) Let May play until he gets a hit and then start making plans to send him down or drastically reduce his playing time. Yeah let him be 4th of. Unfortunately the starter would be Leury haha

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 07:43 PM) That should be Holland's first earned run.. Yep. I bet it ends up getting changed.

Abreu is a DH for sure.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 04:02 PM) Is that right, hmm. That may have just swayed me. Well you wouldn't really be saving money if you don't really want the mlbtv part haha unless you're saying that you already pay for mlbtv so might as well just add MiLBtv for $25 haha

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 04:00 PM) Yes. Saladino will be shifted to 3B when Moncada comes up. Actually wouldn't be totally blown away to see the Sox put Saladino in CF when Moncada comes up, assuming Frazier is still on the roster. Yes, I know Saladino hurt himself playing in the OF. But honestly, he's probably the 3rd most suitable guy to play there on the roster currently. Honestly I was thinking along the same lines. Send May down now, let Leury play CF every day with one of Saladino/Sanchez as emergency guys.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 03:26 PM) I'm guessing Grudz has 0 input when it comes to a decision like that. Agreed.
