4-19 GT: Sox @ Boston (10:10am)
haven't been above .500 yet. maybe 4th times the charm.

Madrigal.
I know he's 24. I know he'll never hit homers. I also know he's had less than 200 MLB plate appearances and 40 or so starts at second base. Just give him a few months before making any final judgements. Lots of good players didn't excel on day 1.

Corbin Burnes
I'm not too worried about the starters or the pen. Go find an outfielder who can hit a little.

We Thought We Have A Good Bullpen?
Admitted Colome fan. Still, LH has only been good for 2 seasons and Colome has never had a bad year in his career. When some one keeps having success year after year, it means some thing. Obviously every player gets old sooner or later. But the difference in salary between these guys could have helped cushion the blow when El Kabong went down(does anybody remember this vague cartoon reference?).

Royals vs Sox Sunday Matinee...1:10 pm CST First Pitch
With a decent bullpen we could be 8-1. Geez I wish we had Colome back.

Old Sox Games on Youtube
The Sox-Angels clip is great. Nice to see my favorite Sox manager Jim Fregosi in the other dug out. I noticed he was wearing his wind breaker even before he got to Chicago. I don't think I ever saw him without it. He was a good manager and a funny guy too. Too bad we didn't any good players when he was here. Took the Phillies to the world series in1993.

A Nick Madrigal Sized Sample
3 walks , 2hbp in 7 games. nice. see where his defense is by June. 380 ops. good. he does look slower than advertised though.

I thought We Were Stockpiling Talent In The Minors??? To Avoid This Problem
pretty sure ruth is at least 2 years younger than gonzo. Bigger,faster,better hitter. if you blast FO for failure at least give them credit for Cuba connection and rehab successes.

Gordon Beckham retires
Saw GB hit his 1st homer of career in Cincinnati. Nice view of the Ohio river from behind Home plate.

ELOY HURT! (3/25 Update: Torn Pectoral Tendon, Out 5-6 months))
Still no mention of Rutherford or Micker. The silence is deafening.

Good opportunity for Zack Collins if Vaughn isn't terrible in LF.

Best White Sox Team Of All Time
1972 and 1977 were the funnest teams ever.

he's going to end up being the best Kade in Chicago sports history.

TLR publicity train
I wish JR had a thing for Jim Leyland instead of TLR. He's only 76. Plus, news conferences would be a real treat.
-
TLR publicity train
You're right about that. People who say RH should have walked if he didn't like the decision are a little too black and white. Nobody knows what Hahn's goals are financially except him. It's always easier finding a job when you have one already.
-
TLR publicity train
I also think Hahn is in a good position for the future. He led the rebuild and it has gone well up to now. I'll bet a lot of teams would hire him if he decided he couldn't take the JR nonsense any more.

FS: Top Prospects (Catchers)
Yermin could be the next Wayne Nordhagen. BTW that is a big compiment.

Sox resign Rodon 1 yr /3m official, Vargas DFA
depending on cost, Cole Hamels would be a great add with Rodon. If Lopez was cut to bring in CH, that would be a win-win.
-
Madrigal 3000 hits "very reachable"
3000 is a lot of hits. He might actually become more selective as he gains experience. If that happens, he'll be a better player. It won't help his hit total though.

Corey Kluber to Yanks per Passan
Give him the 6-8. Also give him 15 in Incentives. If we pay it, we'll be happier than he is.

Corey Kluber to Yanks per Passan
Either Kluber or Paxton, which ever is healthier. It's reasonable to think World Series now. Don't lose the one you want over a small amount of money.
