For something like this during an offseason you can go to the Fangraphs leaderboards and select Past 3 Calendar Years as the split. For something a little less cut-and-dry you go into the player's game log, hit All Dates, and then customize the dates you want from there. The second way is easily one of my favorite features on the site. Ohhhh nice. I didn't notice that in the Splits section. That's way easier. Thanks

Why throw spaghetti against the wall? That's not only a hell of a mess to clean up, but that's delicious spaghetti you're throwing against that wall!

Its not like a catcher, where you can tell he is done after he loses 40 pounds and his power suddenly and mysteriously disappears as fast as it came.

January 24, 201511 yr Author http://www.csnchicago.com/white-sox/geovan...hite-sox-roster Soto is probably the favorite. Opening Day bench- Bonifacio, L Garcia, Shuck, Soto Viciedo moved before then.

January 24, 201511 yr I always wondered how this guy fell so fast. After him testing positive for pot that's when ti decline started. I don't like getting guys from habitually losing organizations. It supports that imaginative mental weakness theory I can't shake.

January 24, 201511 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 09:01 PM) I think it will be Saladino over Garcia. Have to agree. Especially with Hahn saying that they are looking for a right handed hitting infielder.
January 25, 201511 yr QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jan 24, 2015 -> 02:53 PM) Have to agree. Especially with Hahn saying that they are looking for a right handed hitting infielder. Hahn said he was looking for an acquisition and also said Saladino would be a top internal candidate. It seems the Sox have really soured on Davidson. Even Buddy Bell's effort to spin him up was half hearted and he mentioned how hard it is to hit, and failure rate. The minor league guys did seem a little more hopeful with Johnson. They think he tweaked his mechanics a bit just trying to succeed. They still think he can get back to where he was.

I hope Saladino's healthy and he gets a shot. Davidson, unable to play any positions other than 3rd, doesn't merit a spot on the bench even if he displayed that he could kinda hit spring training pitching.

I think he may have succumb to Randy Wells syndrome and partied too hard after his first year of success with the Cubs and couldn't maintain it.
January 25, 201511 yr Anyone else think we may carry Geo Soto as our 3rd C/DH vs LHP? Maybe even some 1B letting Abreu DH vs LHP?
