I need to get on the twittah. Levine should be axed if it's false. Jesse Sanchez confirmed it as well. And Melky retweeted a Adam Eaton tweet welcoming him to the south side.

Princess Dye Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) flagship station should send this fantasy football show to the sidelines based on this news. we are allergic to building interest in this team it seems please though, more SUVs on the warning track and t-shirt cannons.

One thing I agree with him though...Danks and Noesi at 4-5 are good enough. They make their starts and put up innings. Until they give the Sox a reason to make a move, they don't need to make a move with starting pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear_brian Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 What an offseason - here is a recap of improvements; LaRoche instead of Dunn Melky Cabrera instead of Viciedo Avi Garcia instead of De Aza or Moises Sierra Samardzija instead of Scott Carroll David Robertson instead of Belisario Zach Duke instead of Scott Downs Carlos Sanchez instead of Gordon Beckham Hector Noesi instead of Eric Johnson Now, if there was a way to sign Bonifacio (who kills lefties) as well as trade for Daniel Nava from the Red Sox, we would be one of the favorites to win the American League (if we are not already!).

southsider2k5 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Dec 13, 2014 -> 11:37 PM) KW has a soft spot for Levine. Don't ask me why. He protects him as a source.

LDF Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 14, 2014 -> 02:33 PM) Unless you have issues with the past PED use, I'm not sure how anyone wouldn't like this deal. We filled our biggest hole with a guy that has been a 2.6+ WAR player in each of the past four years when he didn't have a tumor on his spine. The deal is relatively short-term and covers his age 30 to 32 seasons, so the overall risk is limited. His skill-set is perfect fit for the two hope and he adds more balance to the lineup being a switch-hitter. Outside of his defense, which is still an upgrade over Viciedo, I'm not sure what there is not to like here. what will happen after the 2015 season can be address at a later date. what i am extremely happy going into '15 season, the sox did as much and more than anyone can ask. this team looks sweet on paper, with the rotation pretty much set, it is going to be a GREAT season. that is the first big step, the rest will fall in place.

Don't forget that we will have Jennings and hopefully a fully healed Nate Jones who was gone most of last year. Maybe we'll have even more action to come.

shysocks Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Love it, this is my favorite move of the offseason. This team didn't have a #2 hitter and now it got the best one available. And I would have been fine with Melky at 4/$60, having to go three years is an early Hannukah miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Corresponding roster move. Has to be Danks, right? No other roster move frees up as much as Melky will be getting. Also wondering if there is another SP target out there if Danks is being moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
