3/13 vs Indians
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 10:46 AM) At this very moment in time? Maybe a Spencer Adams type. But that can all change if he lights it up next year. If Saladino were on another team, you would deal Spencer Adams for him? A guy who has been good in a backup role but hasn't proven anything as an everyday player (not his fault; he is good with the glove however). It'll be awesome to see him get steady time this upcoming season.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 10:55 AM) Fixed again. I could see Jones going next off-season or next trade deadline.

Last place team candidates tracker
QUOTE (Sox-35th @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 10:42 AM) Move Quintana, Frazier, Robertson, Cabrera and leave Moncada in the minors and we're golden. As close to the bottom as I'm willing to get. Fixed.

Last place team candidates tracker
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 09:57 AM) I think Brewers are going to have a nice jump this year to 75 wins, even in that division. Padres I see being one of those teams that has an abysmal first half and people stop paying attention then have a surprisingly competent second half that takes them out of last place. I still think last place could be a team nobody suspects (like last year) and I'd put it on the marlins. Easily. I see them finishing last in that division. All it really takes is for an annual Stanton dl-stint. Braves and Phillies I would think will improve slightly.

Charlie Tilson Injured
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 09:49 AM) Duke was incredible for the Cards... Yeah in his 2 months there. This season, he's out for the year, the final year of his contract.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (Buehrlesque @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 08:32 AM) Meadows is still my personal favorite as well. (I don't care as much about Glasnow) And it makes so much sense for Pittsburgh, with their glut of OFs already! Oh well... A resurgent year from McCutchen in RF could make him expendable. Guess we'll see come mid-season!

2017 MLB DRAFT
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) I thought the reason it was noteworthy is because batting average can't go above 1 while ERA can. So a .300 batting average is equivalent to a 0.30 ERA, not a 3.00 ERA. Ah I get what you're saying. I didn't really look at it that way since, as you said l, can't go over 1.000 in regards to batting avg. But just looking at the 3 numbers ignoring the decimal I guess. 255 era 300 avg.

Charlie Tilson Injured
QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 05:26 PM) So who do we expect to start CF come opening day Wouldn't mind Liriano getting time out there.

2017 MLB DRAFT
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 03:27 PM) Explain? So a good pitcher should have an ERA well under 1? I get what he's saying. If you're a good hitter and good pitcher, your average is likely higher. Example: 2.50 era and .300 batting avg.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 11, 2017 -> 07:23 PM) Poor Baltimore. Never get a mention. To be fair, their pitcher never looks good enough and then their offense propels them. Good bullpen too.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Mar 11, 2017 -> 07:36 PM) Of course not. They don't have the prospects for Q. He wasn't referring to mention of being in on Q

3/10 game thread
QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 07:06 PM) What's so funny? Great game by Quintana. Sox Ace. Probably a typical Q lead being blown? Wasn't that hard to figure out haha it's like clockwork

New Beer at The Rate
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 03:53 PM) This won't be the only new Beer the Sox will be getting. This year? Yes it will haha

Robertson to WASH was close, now at stalemate
QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 11:10 AM) Has anyone heard/seen how Robertson is throwing? Only threw 3 innings for us before joining team USA.

2017 Video Game Thread
QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 10:29 AM) I just installed that update last night. I just recently got Arkham Knight and I'm a little worried that I won't have enough room on my HD to play it. I haven't even opened it yet. Same thing happened to me. Bought a 500GB PS4 Uncharted 1-3 bundle on Black Friday 2015 and I already managed to run out of space (literally when I went to play Arkham Knight is when I found out). I think the biggest games on my PS4 are Black Ops 3 and Arkham Knight. I also have: Evil Within, Last of Us, Uncharted 4, MLB 16: The Show, Resident Evil 0/1 Remastered set, Until Dawn, Tomb Raider (haven't played yet), and Dying Light (might be forgetting another game or two).

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 01:22 PM) Do you/we think this is legit or are we getting teased again? I have wanted Hahn to trade with Yankees all along. Legit that we have scouts there? Yes. Why? Because why wouldn't they? They likely have scouts at every game. It doesn't mean anything is imminent.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 12:36 PM) Yeah, signing him is obviously the most unrealistic part of that lineup but I can dream, right? Wanted to add this to my post, but his first year in a new deal would be his age 26-season. He's looking at a 10+ year deal easy with an opt-out at around his age 29/30 (4 and 5th year of the deal) season to try to grab a 7-8 year deal.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 12:23 PM) There's a ton of variables to this, but what if the Sox had a future lineup of: 1. Anderson (SS) 2. Moncada (2B) 3. Beer (1B) 4. Machado (3B) 5. Collins © 6. Abreu (DH) 7. Frazier/Rutherford (RF) 8. Robert (LF) 9. Mateo (CF) That would be insane. I think he is going to get paid closer to the contract Harper wants than Harper lol and he deserves it more. Machado will likely get the contract Stanton got (probably more).

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 12:11 PM) is the / operative as a "and" or a "or" Honestly because I like Rutherford a lot, I think Rutherford/Kaprellian/Mateo/diaz-type is pretty good to me. It's an "or"
-
White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 11:47 AM) I know everyone is down on Mateo but I think he is someone that could easily be tried in CF and becomes a less risky prospect. What about Frazier/Rutherford, Mateo, Andujar, Fowler and Montgomery? Edit: this idea is already basically above

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 11:13 AM) That's it? I thought the Yankees potential interest in Q was common knowledge by now. Yeah haha

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 11:06 AM) Um, duh. I felt the same haha Sox scouts are likely everywhere. Kinda seems like a non-news story. We've known they've been connected for a while.

White Sox Scout Yankees for Potential Q Trade
QUOTE (DirtySox @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 10:58 AM) Notes untouchables. I personally am warning to Frazier and Rutherford as headliners. I could see them moving one or the other as they are both OF. Also depends on how they feel about Aaron Judge in a corner spot. Ellsbury is pretty much a lock in CF (eventually LF) over the next 5 years. Edit: just checked. 4 years of Ellsbury. The 5th year is an option with a $5 mill buyout in 2021.
