Do the White Sox take a shot at Forest Whitley, who was recently DFA'ed by the Astros...former top pitching prospect 2-3 years ago?
 

 

Smith still at 97 mph, lots of ground ball singles in this one...and traffic on the bases, but has mostly pitched around it.

BULLPEN:  TRANSFORM!!!

no fucking range either.

Let's take a look down on the farm and see how Vaughn is doing

 

 

On second  thought maybe not. Baldwin 4-5 and up to .375BA. Really wants a spot back in Chicago

there we fucking go. We've turned a pissload of DPs lately.

DFA and let Baldwin play 2b

Rojas shouldn't be playing any position other than third.

Well, really...he shouldn't be playing anywhere after they bring Sosa/Baldwin back.

 

Smith has lowered his ERA now to 2.37 and that HAS to be it for this game.

Baldwin should never have left. Put him at 2nd base and 8th in the line up and let the kids play

Team rules. No question anymore.

He wasn't getting consistent playing time, whether you want to blame Getz/Venable.

Struggling with defense and fundamentals.

It was the right move to let him play everyday in CHLT and get his confidence back.

Has helped them win 3 games.  That’s more than most on this team.

It's so much more enjoyable watching a team that will take a walk.

…more than 50 at bats 

Smith is totally going to the ASG

Probably go to Sosa at first, Vargas 3B, Meidroth SS and Baldwin 2B in all likelihood.

Could always bring up Ramos, but that seems more of a longshot.

Houston booth has said that's happening, no doubt.

The competition at SS in both leagues is way too deep, and Jacob Wilson of the A's pretty much has to go...so no Meidroth.

Plus the "counting stats" police will dock him.

lol, wow, that's a white sox like play.

LOL Elko, that's one way to do it

Wut.

Speed kills 

ELKO

That's something you will NEVER see out of Andrew Vaughn, a stolen base.

Good for Elko...bringing energy/enthusiasm to the team.
