It's seems exclusively to the White Sox. 2 things happen - they become useful to another team or they are out of baseball 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie for Manager Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 58 minutes ago, GreenSox said: Give Elko the rest of the season. The mix and match options will always be available. Rojas along with Slater et al should be DFAd in the near future (Slater today, really). Crapa or palacios go first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering we've drafted and developed one position player into an all star for us in the last 30 years, it certainly seems more exclusive to the White Sox. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Civale: Oh, I think you misheard what I said. I said I wanted a FADE, as in a new haircut. Sorry for any confusion! Brewers: Too late. Civale: I'll go to the bullpen and be good. I won't complain at all. I swear! Brewers: Sorry, it's a done deal. Civale: *stomps foot* I hate you! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Deep Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Good luck to andrew. Quite honestly I hope he figures it out and becomes a good hitter. That being sad, he was never going to hit when he played for the White Sox. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he was also the most healthy from the last rebuild core. Not sure that’s worth a “thanks for everything you did for the team” though.

Capn12 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Inevitable, to move on from AV. I'm not sure we have the future answer in house, but AV had no real future on this team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Gavin has put up more WAR in 60 games in SD, than he did in 435 games in Chicago. Maybe it isn't the player at fault, but the organization and their choices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) 1 hour ago, southsider2k5 said: FIP of 5.53 could be scary coming here. His last 180 IP haven't been great, but a lot of that is related to a change in pitch mix that hasn't worked and has been odd - hes moved away from his slider which was one of his best pitches and hes moved away from his curve which is his best pitch. He's become fastball heavy. The arm talent and strength is still there. Edited June 13 by Look at Ray Ray Run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Another failed very high draft pick by this organization. Seemed like a nice guy but simply isn't very good in professional baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it isn't the player at fault, but the organization and their choices? People will say this is hindsight but I was leaning more towards Sheets if they were only going to go with one going forward in the offseason, basically just because of the lefty bat. However, I didn't really want to bring back either though, especially not Vaughn. Edit: this isn't like an "I'm pissed they didn't keep Sheets" post. Because I also doubt he would be doing here what he's been doing in SD. Edited June 13 by Bob Sacamano 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Stone Pony is still going to talk about how Vaughn is ready to break out at any moment. That Osik dude was probably right and Vaughn is just a lazy ass that took his talent and career for granted.

I don't know about pro-Sheets, but tendering a contract to Vaughn in the off season was stupid then, and it didn't work out any better in hindsight. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
