Ugh.

I would prefer for this to be a season where we finish in first place and do well in the playoffs but I can't help but think about the kind of talent we could get back in an overhaul. The floors of any Quintana and Sale deal would be the Hamels and Miller deals. But they of course should command more.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 21, 2016 -> 03:03 PM) You're going to freak out in 2 months when the Sale to Boston rumors start again, aren't you Only if the rumors are for terrible pieces that the Boston media tries to push.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 21, 2016 -> 01:31 PM) At this rate, they will! Seeing as though he only threw 48 pitches last start, I bet he goes 5 at most.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 20, 2016 -> 09:19 PM) What is that suppose to do exactly? Mix it up? Try someone else out who's currently hitting in the minors? Try getting someone else in the lineup with OBP skills until someone better becomes available in a deal?

Time for Hayes to DH/backup 1B with Garcia seeing more time in the outfield?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 20, 2016 -> 07:32 PM) Lawrie hit by pitch in his first AB. Doubt it was intentional.

Lincecum signing apparently pushes Angels over luxury tax threshold. That team is in horrible shape outside of Trout and a couple interesting arms.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 20, 2016 -> 07:22 PM) Great, jinx ensues. No such thing...go back to Northside.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 20, 2016 -> 07:04 PM) God I f***ing hate the schedule now. Inter league all year and what, 60 odd games in the division every year? Gets boring. About 76 against the division. I wish we played other teams in AL more. They definitely need to add two more teams to go back to minimal interleague.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 20, 2016 -> 04:07 PM) Abreu batting second? So weird. Why? He batted second plenty last season.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 20, 2016 -> 02:37 PM) I think he'll obviously be up in September but I don't consider him a part of 2016 plans. Perhaps he comes up and is a tremendous pinch runner and somehow makes his way up to our playoff roster though Yeah I could see that. He may be officially added to the 40 man after the game on August 31 to qualify for the playoff roster.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 19, 2016 -> 09:10 PM) Davidson also 2-4. Could be a decent trade chip at the deadline. Edit: Delmonico is destroying AA in a pitchers ballpark. Call him up to AAA. Agree. Let him replace Ishikawa.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 19, 2016 -> 09:20 PM) The answer to that trivia question was Jake Peavy (2012) I had a feeling.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 19, 2016 -> 09:12 PM) Didn't Garland do it? I'm not sure. He may have.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 19, 2016 -> 09:10 PM) Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 55s55 seconds ago Anyone want to guess the last White Sox pitcher to throw back-to-back complete games? #WhiteSoxTalk I'm guessing it's not the obvious "Buehrle" guess.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 19, 2016 -> 09:07 PM) Let's get another insurance run. Do you guys think Robin will let Sale go out for the 9th? I don't see how you can't let him.

He should definitely go the distance.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:48 PM) You might as well hand Chris Sale the Cy Young right now if he records a shutout in this game. There's still over half the season left. But yeah he keeps pitching this way it should be his.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:43 PM) They have no other alternatives. Lawrie? I know he has struggled lately but he's changed his approach this year and takes more pitches and walks. I get he's not playing today but I guess I would have just stuck with Rollins with Lawrie out.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:42 PM) Please find an actual number 2 hitter I think Melky would be fine for it if we traded for a middle of the order bat but I wouldn't change a thing about Melky right now so a #2 hitter in a trade would be ideal.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:41 PM) Sanchez fails as always Don't get why he's hitting second.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:36 PM) With the way Chris is pitching, he's only exerting maximum effort on a few pitches per AB. So even if he was higher in pitch count, I'd trust him to throw 110-120 pitches. Yeah kind of reminds me of other top guys who have done similar. Like a younger Verlander.

This game feels like a complete game shutout.
