Bob Sacamano

Danks granted release from Braves. Hoping to pitch in the MLB. Come join the tank show!

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 02:08 PM) From MLBTradeRumors: Hmmm. Basically what everyone expected.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 01:54 PM) But Sale not pitching bumped noesi into the home opener spot. edit: I may be misremembering, but I thought that there was a chance Sale started home opener as he recovered from his foot. Sale pitched what the 6th game that season? Samardzija got 2 starts in before Sale debuted that Sunday (I was there) and at home opener that Friday where I too suffered through a beatdown.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 01:34 PM) Awesome. Was worried it would be a 2015 scenario where I thought I would see Sale and ended up with Noesi. Well deserved for Q. Well that was different. That is the home opener you are referring to which was also 4th game of the season. Opening day doesn't always = home opener.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 01:08 PM) 1.) Quintana 2.) Rodon 3.) Shields 4.) Gonzalez 5.) Holland CL - Robertson SU - Jones LHP - Jennings RHP - Putnam RHP - Petricka RHP - Ynoa LHP - Luebke Just looked at Covey's spring. I definitely don't think they will keep him (unless they trade like a PTBNL for him).

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 11:46 AM) What's the point of carrying both Leury and Yolmer? Aren't they redundant? Is it just because both are out of options? I guess so even though they could probably take a chance sending Yolmer down.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 11:41 AM) Davidson is a lock as he's out of options. Bench will likely be Sanchez, Garcia, Soto, and 1 of Liriano/Asche. Davidson on the roster as primary DH. If it's between Asche and Liriano, I don't see how it can't be Asche. Liriano may be out of options but seems very effected by the injury last year (vision problems since). Not hitting well at all and 18 ks. Definitely can risk optioning him down.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 11:36 AM) You think they'll carry 5 guys on the bench (including the backup catcher)? Seems unlikely to me. Asche seems likely to be the DH at this point. I'm not sure Davidson is a sure thing for this roster personally.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 11:17 AM) https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/03/red-...p;post-id=87757 Boston still looking for a starting pitcher. Maybe someone like Gonzalez. But probably a free agent signing or a trade for someone optionable.

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 10:34 AM) @CSNHayes Tim Anderson out of #WhiteSox lineup for 3rd straight (1st was planned). Not an injury. Was told nothing to worry about. I'll be honest, my first thought when I saw there was a post in here was that we had interest in Norris for whatever reason haha

QUOTE (brett05 @ Mar 20, 2017 -> 07:03 AM) We gotta find someone to teach Yoan to cut down on those k's. Even if we can get that to say 25% rate that would be huge. I'd even pay a guy outside of the organization if we have to. We are already paying guys INSIDE the organization to help with this. No need to go outside.

Cody Asche is definitely hitting his way onto the roster. He's seen time at 1B as well this spring.

It's ok to agree to disagree everyone.

Asked this last week, but has anyone added external hard drive to their ps4 since the update?

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 17, 2017 -> 06:10 PM) I know we've had some positive reports on May but from what I saw down in Arizona this spring he is not a MLB CF. He takes awful routes and it's not like his bat is anything special either. There's really no reason to start his arb clock. Give him more time in AAA and see if he can figure it out. He could still be a decent 4th OF. For a guy like May, you probably don't worry about service time and arbitration. He probably does need time in Triple-A however.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Mar 17, 2017 -> 04:00 PM) Perhaps, but we will need to suck pretty hard to be picking in the top 5 next season to have a shot at him or Singer I agree.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Mar 17, 2017 -> 03:53 PM) Beer's bat is unquestioned to be plus, but his defense and athleticism are another story Beer would be drafted either as a bat first outfielder, or a first baseman...both of which are pretty unlikely to be selected #1 overall in the draft Teams are valuing defense and speed more than every before, which raises questions about drafting a bat that high If his defense improves, he might go #1, but if scouts are not convinced he can stick in the outfield he might slip further than most think Play him in LF and let him hit you 30+ bombs.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Mar 17, 2017 -> 03:39 PM) Albies is very underrated for a top 15 prospect in my opinion He's only 20 years old and has already made it to AAA It's scary to think what a few more seasons of development could bring. High baseball IQ, great glove, great arm, plus bat, plus run. If he had league average power or better you could make the case for him being the best prospect in baseball Sox fans would love this guy in our system Scouting grades: Hit: 65 | Power: 30 | Run: 70 | Arm: 55 | Field: 65 | Overall: 60 That right there is a franchise player^ Another full year in the minors and who knows, maybe he could be the #1 prospect (with other guys on the list moving to the big leagues).

Can anyone find the video where Viciedo was robbed of a game-winning grand slam in the 9th with 2 outs? I think it was against the Tigers or Twins. Hawk's "dadgumit" was amazing after that play.

Why can't the blue print for a trade look similar to the Sale deal? What did we get, 2 A's, a B, and a C? If we end up pulling the trigger on an A and 3 B's, I wouldn't be upset.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 16, 2017 -> 11:32 AM) I love Miller Park. I just don't know if it's worth going up there for an exhibition game. For the offer I posted above, it's totally worth it. If I were able to go, I would go with some buds and tailgate it.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 16, 2017 -> 11:07 AM) I am going on Saturday. I always enjoy going to Miller Park. It's always stated the problem with the White Sox stadium situation is the lack of bars and restaurants around the park. Miller Park is the same way. I guess their tailgating tradition sort of trumps that. They have drawn pretty well since moving in there. $12 parking is nice too at Miller.

A co-worker sent me a link where you can buy a ticket for the Saturday game for $45. It includes: a ticket to the game, a bus ride to the game (leaves from the GRate at 9 I want to say; leaves 30 minutes after the game), and 2 vouchers for outfield tickets to games during the regular season.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 15, 2017 -> 09:04 PM) Lol that center field one is the best QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 16, 2017 -> 08:22 AM) The first time I read it, I thought it was a serious piece, and I did a double take, before reading again and cracking up laughing. I read it overt an hour ago half sleep. I just re-read it based on your comments and it's amazing lol

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 16, 2017 -> 08:02 AM) Donaldson will also be a free agent at that time. Despite the fact he'll be 33, he'd still be an incredible get given that he can experience a ton of regression and still a remain an elite player. And probably a more realistic target I might add. Yeah and would probably be a 4-5 year deal. I think Jays will retain him. I base this off nothing.
