QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:37 PM) Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 2m2 minutes ago Scottsdale, AZ White Sox reassigned OF Jason Coats to Minor League camp White Sox optioned INF Matt Davidson, INF Leury Garcia, RHP Tommy Kahnle and INF Carlos Sanchez to Class AAA Charlotte; Aww shucks.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:34 PM) The big thing that Davidson doesn't have, that both Sands and Ishiakawa do have, is a lot of time in the OF. They only need Avila, Shuck, Saladino, and Davidson. That covers every spot. They were hamstrung by Laroche, so they should see Davidson as a positive opportunity.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:35 PM) Sure sucks for Davidson and C. Sanchez. Both had great springs. Just no room for them. The "problem" is, that they're keeping an extra RP for the first month of the season and it limits the bench. It would be helpful if teams had 26 man rosters these days.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 01:31 PM) Actress Patty Duke died. She was 69. Mom of Sean Astin. Hard to believe that John Astin is still alive and kicking.

I really want them to give Davidson some time at 1B and let him be the back up corner infielder. He seems to really have figured it out.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 29, 2016 -> 09:45 AM) That is all. But seriously, I really do like Hawk. His schtick can get excessive at times, but I’ve grown to appreciate him even more after hearing Benetti the past few weeks. I will be very sad when he retires. and yes, I know this thread isn’t necessary but I’m bored as hell at school so bare with me. But, I don't want to get naked...

I always thought that Central City was Chicago.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 10:22 AM) I always kinda figured they were like Chicago and New York City type distance or even Boston and New York City. I don't remember ever reading about them being sister cities. I feel like they did it as a convenience thing in the movie. They wanted to have the two heroes jumping back and forth between cities quickly. Kinda lazy writing if that's the case. I had a hard time telling the two cities apart. I think they should have done a better job of making them look different. I always considered Gotham to be New York and Metropolis to be Los Angeles.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 01:23 PM) LaRoche has played this as well as he can. His #familyfirst promotion for his company is just the latest self promotion. "Hi there, I'm Adam Laroche. I gave up $13 million because I believed in Family First ™. You know that if I gave up money like that for family, then you know that I'm going to give you a great deal on meat. So, come on down and bring the kids!"

The idea of Gavin Floyd returning over the guys we have now is a "I love the guys in our past!!1!1" kind of move.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 04:12 PM) Big Ten is a really weak conference outside of football and men's basketball. ACC provides much better competition in soccer, baseball, lacrosse and pretty much all of the women's sports. ACC Men's Basketball is superior to the Big Ten. Some might say that football is just about as good, as well.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 02:34 PM) For government employees on travel, the per diem rate varies from $51-74, depending on location. Gotta be tough for those baseball players to make it on $100/day, especially since one meal per day is provided in the clubhouse. MLB is not a government job. They are required to stay in big cities and super-posh hotels and most have crazy hours and can't get out to eat places. One dinner meal in a downtown area can be $150+.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 10:41 AM) Robert Raiola, CPA ‏@SportsTaxMan 11h11 hours ago #MLB minimum salary for 2016 =$507,500 (same as 2015) MLB per diem for 2016 for each day on the road $100(was $100.50 in 2015) It seems to me that the per diem should be at least $250 a day, with the increasing prices of food in big city hotels and restaurants.
