    If Rondon could hit .210 in majors, he'd have a 10 year career. You don't give up on that at SS

     

    The problem is if Rodon can't crack .180 in A+

    I think you got what I call Bajenaru syndrome. Surkamp is a 4A guy as a starter. His only hope of the majors is as a reliever, ala Zach Putnam. If batters saw him three times a game, they would kill him at the major league level.

     

    Back in the old days we called this the Scott Ruffcorn Disease.

    Holy Moly! Anderson with TWO walks tonight.

     

    I hope and pray a switch has been flipped.

    Amen to that. It's not even the walks so much as him showing signs of improved plate discipline...let's hope this is the start of a trend with him.

  4. Anderson batting 2nd at BHam tonight...wonder if this is to coax him into taking more pitches. As good as he's been, no walks the first two weeks of the season is not encouraging. Even by the Sox poor standard of plate discipline.

  5. Minnie was my dad's 2nd favorite White Sox when he was a kid, close behind Nellie Fox. During the 2005 playoff run, I went to Games 3 and 4 in Anaheim, the last one with a friend of mine who happened to be Cuban. We had nosebleed seats, but the last few innings the crowd really thinned out, and so we decided to relocate to a section along the 1st base line where we saw a large contingent of Sox fans. Shortly after we sit down, I realize we are sitting right next to Minnie Minoso. Minnie spoke with us throughout the rest of the game, and he was the 1st person I high-fived at the end of the game. He couldn't have been nicer or more excited about the Sox.

     

    Minnie loved the Sox through and through. Talented, classy, loyal--you couldn't ask for a better representative for the organization. RIP Minnie.
