Abreu leaves with injury
QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:24 PM) Glad it's just a mild strain but hopefully this convinces everybody he's a DH. His defense should convince everybody he's a DH lol

April 26th Game Thread: White Sox vs. KC Royals
QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:11 PM) 11-9, best bullpen this month. Just think, we are 12-1 away from being where we were last year through the first 33 games.

White Sox have "set" Luis Robert market
QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:03 PM) I was 17 for my first few weeks of college. It really sucked too cause you had to be 19 to get into Carbondale bars so I didn't get into the bar scene a lot my freshman year. Same thing for my brother as well. He went to SIUC and his birthday is mid-August and he literally went back to school like a week or two before he turned 18 haha growing up where we did, the cutoff for the school years was Sept 1.

QUOTE (Chris Sale @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 01:37 PM) 4 K's for Q through two innings. Pretty weak contact. Hopefully he's figured something out. Let's hope.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 09:12 PM) Eric Thames with yet another home run, he now has as many as the Red Sox do collectively. We need Frazier to start swinging the bat really well.

White Sox have "set" Luis Robert market
For those who have missed it, here it is: link RMR 1:07 Am I missing something with these reports of the White Sox being in on Robert? Seems like they would be less likely considering they're the only of the rumored teams to have not blown their pool amount already. Eric A Longenhagen 1:07 They're on him and have more or less set the market at this point

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 01:35 AM) I gave up early last year, but I would be interesting in seeing how the finale couple episodes end, just skipping the rest. Yeah 4th season is definitely the worst. I'll give you that.

White Sox have "set" Luis Robert market
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 01:37 AM) I still don't understand how people are blindly in love with Seth Beer. And he's not even eligible to be drafted this year like the guy's lineup suggests.

April 25th Game Thread: White Sox vs. KC Royals
QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 03:43 PM) Kind of surprised Narvaez is in the lineup vs. the lefty and not Soto...is he hurt again maybe? Especially with the day game tomorrow and a righty being on the mound.

White Sox have "set" Luis Robert market
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 03:07 PM) I can see the Sox spending what it would take to get Robert I absolutely cannot see the Sox being realistic players for Machado or Harper as they will be looking for a megadeal I mean, I believe they will spend some money but I doubt it will all be on one player.

Who are the main competitors for selling at the deadline?
QUOTE (ptatc @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 10:48 AM) People need to stop replying to Greg. I have him on ignore but when you reply to him I read his posts because they appear in your response. It sucks that if you put someone on block, they just aren't gone from the thread to you. It sucks seeing that they post and responses to the post show.

White Sox have "set" Luis Robert market
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 01:50 PM) I think that is the case Other clubs will very much be in the mix, but the Sox do have money to spend with a minimum of Melky and Frazier coming off the books at the end of the season Trading Robertson would ideally free up even more payroll moving forward, as would Quintana Shields comes off the books after next season, leaving us with barely any significant contracts remaining I see the Sox being very aggressive in the Robert bidding war Huh? The money beyond this season nothing to really do with this situation because he won't getting paid millions over the next few years. He would have to go through regular team control like every other player that comes up.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 08:42 AM) Considering 12 teams go to the playoffs, I highly doubt 17 teams are our "main competition". 10*

Who are the main competitors for selling at the deadline?
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 08:32 AM) Eh I think that's overblown. The only true tanking teams are us, maybe the Twins, the Reds, Brewers, Padres, and maybe the Braves (though I think they're trying to be somewhat competitive in the first year of their new stadium). That's not any more tanking than usual. Agreed. More than half the league wasn't tanking coming into the season.

Who are the main competitors for selling at the deadline?
QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 07:47 AM) With increased draft emphasis, the race for the bottom is worse than ever. Not sure what the league can do about it, though. League can do about what? A decent amount of teams were trying to win heading into season. Granted it's still too soon to write anyone off. Some teams will bounce back.

Matt Davidson
QUOTE (ventura_abreu @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 06:46 AM) Frazier and Melky will probably get traded in June or July. They better start hitting. If Giants start playing good and Arroyo isn't hitting at 3B, either one makes sense for them. Still too early to write of any team.
-
Matt Davidson
QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 01:57 AM) Play Davidson every day. Enough with this bs. Delmonico better be playing every day when he comes up too. Problem is, you can't play Delmonico, Davidson, Abreu, Frazier, and I guess Melky all every day. Melky or Frazier has to go before both Davidson and Delmonico see every day at bats. And that doesn't look like it's happening any time soon.

April 24th Game Thread: Chicago Whife Sox vs. KC Royals
Yep probably time for Davidson to play every day, dfa Asche and call up another bullpen arm? Wouldn't want to call Delmonico up just to sit on bench.

2017 MLB Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Apr 24, 2017 -> 05:05 PM) Giants are 6-13? That era over or too early? Way too early to write off any team but losing Bumgarner for 2 months doesn't help.
