NIghtengale is on the Score at 5;20

La Russa is number 22. Menechino has a new number. What that is, I don't know. Maybe they'll update the roster page one of these days.

DL? Ok Boomer.

If anyone gets the time Hahn speaks, put it here.

The day we find out what number Lance Lynn took. Hey White Sox- update your roster pages with uni numbers.

I dunno

I already gave my answer, but how much would people lose their shit if they went: Eaton, Madrigal, Abreu, Jimenez, Moncada, Anderson, Grandal, Vaughn, Robert I wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't necessarily call it terrible either. We have a good team.

Long season, coming off a 60-game season. I'd rather ease in, see who stands out,

Anderson, Moncada, Abreu, Jimenez, Grandal. Vaughn, Robert, Eaton, Madrigal

I'm going 6-man until May 11. If not 6-man, 6 day. First 40 games, 7 starts for Giolito, Keuchel, Lynn, and Cease; 6 starts for Lopez and Rodon. Then Game 41-43 vs Twins is Giolito, Keuchel, Lynn. At least that would be the plan until weather/injuries changes it. Then Kopech gets in there when he earns it or somebody gets hurt, traded, etc.

Sox vs Brewers two weeks from now. Hope we get a broadcast schedule soon, even if they're 5-7 inning games.

Seems like more teams are choosing to start at 6:10 or 6:40 for weekday games, Wish the Sox would have done that too. Stickin' with 7:10.

Sox have a home game in 57 days. Can’t come soon enough. Sox/Angels in 50 days!

Right, but I know what’s coming next CBA. They’ll keep it.

I never thought they’d do the stupid man on 2nd in extras, but here we are. Just thinking long term with expansion, realignment, expanded postseason , they need to get it together so the World Series isn’t in crappy conditions, and the neutral site is lame.

I’m talking post-pandemic.

Now that 7-inning doubleheaders are part of baseball, maybe they should use them to end the season sooner. Play 12 scheduled dh per year, make the season 24.5 weeks instead of 26.5. They do that, opening day no sooner than April 1, and Game 7 of the World Series no later than October 26.

That’s true, but for whatever reason, they played 4 series against every team in the AL from 1979 to 1993. You played 13 games against the six teams in your division, and 12 games against the seven teams outside your division- a balanced schedule for all intents and purposes. So in 1990, the White Sox had the second best record with a balanced schedule and went home with 94 wins. Not sure why they didn’t play 15 in the division, and 10 outside for 160 but it’s MLB so... BTW, I love the idea of going back to no divisions and a balanced schedule when they go to 16 teams in each league. Play the 15 teams in your league 11 games...165 games with built in 7- inning doubleheaders to shorten the season. Top 6 teams in each league make the postseason. If the leagues go East/West, fine.

Exactly. I don't know how they don't look at it as common sense. There's no common sense in wanting a man on 2nd base to start an inning. That's a gimmick, but I understand the need to not have 15+ inning games. So play the 10th and 11th like major leaguers, and if it's still tied, go to the coin flip, man on 2nd in the 12.

Been suggesting that myself for years. It turns over the lineup faster for the best players that play offense and defense. But they’ll never do it because of money.

You just never know. Let’s face it...the Twins and Sox are probably both low to mid-90s win teams. Is it possible one or two games in early April could be the difference? You’ll never be able to definitively prove it, but the answer is yes.

Agreed. They won’t do it, but considering the window of winning and the unknown CBA, service time be damned. Play the kid.

Forgot the Sox and Twins play all 19 games between May 11 and August 11.
