August 15, 201312 yr He just tweeted this out: Chris Singleton I'll be back soon! RT @CPHSox: Happy 41st Birthday to former #WhiteSox OF/DH, @c_singleton! He hit .283 in 420G/1528PA/1399ABs w/ the Sox. https://twitter.com/c_singleton/status/368069014750117888 Edited August 15, 201312 yr by Sockin
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 11:05 AM) Interesting. Stone out for good? Front office? Maybe Hawk is sicker than anyone knows but if that's the case don't think Singleton would be so happy sounding in his tweet. Nevermind.
August 15, 201312 yr I wouldn't be surprised if Stone leaves even though I believe he has one year left on his deal. Supposedly him and Hawk kissed and made up, but I still don't think Stone likes him. I'm guessing either Singleton is taking Stone's place or DJ is moving back to tv with Singleton taking his radio gig back.
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 07:18 PM) Geez, more left handed hitting outfielders! Of course they want him, he played football in college.
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 01:18 PM) Maybe he just meant he'd be in Chicago soon. Possible, but because the original person tweeted "former White Sox" and Singleton says "I'll be back soon", I read that as stating he will be coming back to the White Sox soon as the city of Chicago was not mentioned in any way.
August 15, 201312 yr Singleton made me enjoy Darrin Jackson on the radio and I hate Darrin Jackson on the radio.
August 15, 201312 yr Hopefully they reunite Hawk and DJ. I don't know why ESPN hired Singeton. Or why he'd leave a cushy Sunday Night Baseball gig. Edited August 15, 201312 yr by Buehrle>Wood
August 15, 201312 yr Singleton was brutal at the very beginning, but there was some good progress made before he left. I hear him once every so often on Sunday Night Baseball, and he's not bad at all. Still, I hope this just means he's coming here to call a game on behalf of espn, and not that someone from one of the booths is being replaced.
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 01:40 PM) Singleton made me enjoy Darrin Jackson on the radio and I hate Darrin Jackson on the radio. Really that bad? I've only listen to a handful of radio broadcasts since Rooney left. I think Singleton does a decent enough job for ESPN.

There is zero chance that ESPN is coming to Chicago to do a game at any time the rest of this season unless it's the last day of the season and the Royals are within a game either way of a playoff spot.

DJ is awful too. Hopefully they hire a young, professional PBP guy and keep Steve Stone as the analyst. Not a chance though.
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 12:18 PM) Maybe he just meant he'd be in Chicago soon. Yea, I am guessing that is it... likely an ESPN broadcast here in the windy city.
August 15, 201312 yr Singleton has mastered the craft of color/PBP if you ask me. His ESPN broadcasts are really good
August 15, 201312 yr Lol, they felt the need to tweet a triple slash version of his playing time, but just mention his batting average.
August 15, 201312 yr QUOTE (Real @ Aug 15, 2013 -> 05:32 PM) Singleton has mastered the craft of color/PBP if you ask me. His ESPN broadcasts are really good When you compare him to anything else ESPN has to offer....
August 15, 201312 yr Yea, I am guessing that is it... likely an ESPN broadcast here in the windy city. Yes, ESPN is in a huge hurry to show a last-place Chicago team instead of the Red Sox or Yankees.
August 15, 201312 yr The guy knows Singleton. He tweeted him to give him a heads up when he is comimg in and Singleton said he would.
