Shades of 2013.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 03:44 PM) The Sox got played hard by Oakland for Shark, that much is obvious in retrospect. Chicago made the deal because they thought they were close to contending and thus overpaid slightly to get him. Well, not only did they not get good value, they didn't get a playoff push either. Phegley will never be anything more than backup (at best) but Semien and Bassit have chances to be solid regulars. In Semian's case he would the 2nd highest WAR on the team right now for position players. FML. Sox fans would still hate him because he's an awful defender.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 03:13 PM) As bad as Abreu has been at 1B lately, he would probably be beer league bad at 3B. I don't doubt it, I was just responding to him. LaRoche isn't even that good against righties anyways, I would sit him too.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Jun 16, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) Where do you expect him to play? Or do you really want to pull Abreu out of the lineup? They could put Abreu at 3rd and LaRoche at 1st.

Quintana better pitch lights out tonight, because we all know he won't get more than 1 or 2 runs of support.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 09:24 PM) You are doing an impersonation of yourself That's fair enough lol.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 09:17 PM) What!??! lol Players aren't allowed to go in slumps anymore? He is the least of our problems hitting wise. How bout Flowers, Sanchez, Alexei, Melky, Eaton, Beckham, Gillaspie, Soto? I was doing my best impression of a typical SoxTalk poster after someone has a bad game. Honestly, he's struggling right now (like everyone else on the team), but as BigHurt said, he's been one of the lone bright spots on offense.

He f***ing blows. Send him down.

FIRE ROBIN NOW!!!!!!!!

Why did they pull Rodon so early?

This team just can't hit to save their lives.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 06:33 PM) Send him down. He didn't have command in Charlotte and he doesn't have it here. Overreaction much? He was doing really well until this start. All pitchers throw a clunker once in a while.

Rodon was due for a clunker, oh well.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 08:49 PM) His command leaves a lot to be desired, but only 2 walks. He has 3 er through 5. The first rbi single pitch would have been launched 500 feet vs any mlber. Then run was on a wild pitch, but in Fulmers defense, any mlb catcher probably would have stopped it. I think Coop can help him with his command issues if he's willing to learn and take advice (and it seems like he is).

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 08:23 PM) What's the proper protocol about openly rooting against unsigned future White Sox players, haha? BANISHMENT!!!

QUOTE (daggins @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 06:18 PM) So you're ok with the Sox trading their bad players. Gotcha. The Sox have invested way too much money/time to do a complete rebuild at this point. You have to keep your controllable and franchise players and then try to build around them.

I wouldn't mind the Sox trading anyone but Sale, Rodon, Quintana, Abreu, and Robertson. Everyone else is fair game to be moved at this point.

Game. Over.

I'd let him throw 115-120 pitches today. I want to see him get 15 strikeouts.

I hope Sale gets to 10 strikeouts again today.

QUOTE (Real @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 06:05 PM) smh, give me a break dude, this team blows leads like it's going out of style i play the odds bro You keep it "real". Ba-dum-tiss, drops mic.

Oh, and Chuck Garfien is annoying as hell. How did that f***tard ever get a TV job?

This team won't do anything this year. You're a fool if you think otherwise.

Here's how this works. Just make a list of the guys that won't be in a White Sox uniform by Opening Day 2016 that are currently on the team. When that time comes, we can see how close we were to our predictions. My guesses are: - Tyler Flowers - Alexei Ramirez - Carlos Sanchez - Junior Guerra - Hector Noesi - John Danks - Emilio Bonifacio

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 05:37 PM) Too bad you lost your challenge.................so they really do not lose challenge the system is s***. Exactly. What's the point of having a specific number of challenges if a manager can get one whenever they want to. What BS.
