That could have been way worse. The Sox are lucky to have only given up 1 in that inning.

This is pathetic.

So pumped. Let's show KC who is boss. I think the key for today is to try to get to Ventura/their middle relievers early. Facing Herrera/Davis/Holland down a run or two is not a good idea.

I'm sad that Paulie is no longer on the team.

I don't get this at all. He was awful last year. Hopefully it's just some Minor League depth.

Holy hell. Quintana was awful today.

QUOTE (Señor Ding-Dong @ Apr 1, 2015 -> 08:57 PM) I don't understand it. I know he's not the most talented guy in the world, but with his story and personality it's impossible not to root for him. I'm definitely a fan of his. He's not nearly as bad as he's been made out to be either. He had his moments as a starter last season and he was good in his limited appearances out of the bullpen. I can see him sticking in this league as a longman and spot starter. I agree. He's actually a very useful player in emergency situations. He can come and pitch pretty much any time he is needed. I went to his first career start, so I'll always like him. He wasn't too bad when he was given playing time either.

I fell for it lol.

I'm guessing 87-75 with a Wild Card berth.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 05:19 PM) Jace Fry looks like he could go to AA right now and be fine. He looks REALLY good. That's refreshing to see.

I hate Scott Downs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 01:54 PM) Hard to believe they'd claim him and then expose him to waivers again in a week. I also have an additional question. If they have him on the team to start the season but then send him down at some point, is he still exposed to waivers then? Is it like the Nieto case last year where if the Sox would've sent him down, the Nationals could've claimed him back?

QUOTE (LDF @ Mar 28, 2015 -> 11:48 AM) march 20, mock http://www.mymlbdraft.com/MLB-Mock-Draft/ I just don't see the Sox taking a 2B/SS at #8 overall. There's already a ton of depth at those spots. I'd much rather take a pitcher or a power hitter at that spot.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 02:09 PM) Jacob Petricka still feels sore. Knows it's clean. Irritated because he just has to let arm rest. #WhiteSox https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/582250436998004736 Petricka still dealing with moderate soreness. Not looking likely for Opening Day, which is 8 days away. https://twitter.com/ESPNChiSox/status/582250562755956736 Robin Ventura says Micah Johnson has "done well enough to be the leading guy" for second-base job. But he's not naming him starter yet. https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/582250943837646848 I'm pretty sure Petricka was slated to be the set-up guy for Robertson. If he isn't ready, who would take his place?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 02:03 PM) Yes sir. That is such a tough spot for Ventura/Cooper to be in. They'll barely have any time to work with Drabek, but they'll have to make a decision on him very quickly.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 29, 2015 -> 01:54 PM) Hard to believe they'd claim him and then expose him to waivers again in a week. If he doesn't make the Opening Day team out of Spring Training, is he exposed to waivers again?

Meh, he was terrible anyway. Not that big of a loss.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 28, 2015 -> 06:07 PM) He should work on throwing strikes and making the team. LOL. Well, this performance doesn't help his chances at all. The only positive thing about him is that he throws really hard, but that doesn't do any good if he can't get anything over the plate.

Cleto is horrible. My god.

QUOTE (RaySox @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 07:54 PM) Perhaps we should wait to see if he's going to give up 6 homers ever 15 innings before offering any contracts This is a good point. If we consistently see the Samardzija we saw today this season, I'm fine if he walks. I'd rather spend the money on Cueto or Zimmermann anyway.

What the hell is wrong with Samardzija today?

I hate the Cubs announcers so much.

Flowers with the BOMB!!! That thing was crushed.

Shuck is so good. Wow.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 27, 2015 -> 03:35 PM) I don't think he'll last past June if he's struggling and the team is in contention. Who would replace him then? Soto? I am not convinced he's as good as he once was.
