Brandon Guyer is still the guy I'm looking at.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 15, 2016 -> 11:19 AM) This is a dumb question, but if Turner ends up in Charlotte after Spring Training ends, the Sox would still have to pay him the $1.5 million deal in which he agreed to, right? Yes. I doubt many teams would claim him and roster him on their 25 though and pay him $1.5 million.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 15, 2016 -> 09:45 AM) Yes. I agree a lot with the original post, but Turner could very well put a wrench in the works. I really expected a reliever to get traded, though it wouldn't surprise me to see a late spring training deal get done with a reliever going to a team with a 25 man roster crunch looking to get something for a player out of options that the White Sox could use. I feel like they can get Turner through waivers probably and he'll be starting at Charlotte with Beck and EJ but yes I would imagine those scenarios could happen.

I think people need to stop acting like there's a competition. There really isn't. There is 1 roster spot available and it's for the bench IMO. Petricka or Putnam going on the DL could open a spot for Kahnle. Other than that, the rotation is in some order Sale/Quintana/Rodon/Latos/Danks. The bullpen looks like: Robertson/Jones/Duke/Putnam/Petricka/Jennings/Albers. An injury could open a spot. As far as position players go: Abreu/LaRoche/Lawrie/Frazier/Avila/Jackson/Eaton/Cabrera/Rollins/Saladino/Garcia/Navarro. That leaves one spot. It's probably Shuck as of now but I could see them claiming an excess OF from a team with a surplus and going with that person over Shuck.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Mar 14, 2016 -> 08:20 AM) I hope teams like the Bears signing ILB helps Darron Lee fall in the draft a little bit. He is starting to become my favorite player in this draft. Reggie Ragland as well. I don't think Lee gets out of the top 20. Packers may have a good DL or solid pass rusher on the board though.

I don't know how good they'll be but they will definitely be more fun.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 14, 2016 -> 08:18 AM) I think David Haugh is a Sox fan, at least that's what I got when the crosstown series was going on last year listening to the morning show they do. David Haugh is a Sox fan from Northwest Indiana. He just has bad sport opinions.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Mar 13, 2016 -> 08:10 PM) Sounds like you agree. Hahn assumed all along that Danks is the 4th starter. He brought in insurance for EJ not Danks Hahn said the Sox plan to go with Erik Johnson, along with their four returning left-handed starters. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/colum...125-column.html He's lying. They didn't pay Latos $3 million to not be in the rotation.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 13, 2016 -> 03:50 PM) None at all. Ideally, I think it's better if Turner and Fulmer start in the rotation. It'll be Latos. Fulmer isn't ready.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Mar 11, 2016 -> 10:58 AM) Granted it is just a rating list, but if the draft went that way it would be amazing for the Sox. 10. Buddy Reed 25. Jordan Sheffield 48. Kyle Funkhouser 85. Ben Bowden Yeah no thanks to Buddy Reed. I don't think he's ever going to hit.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 12, 2016 -> 01:20 PM) Cabrera or Rollins at 2. Hopefully Abreu and Frazier are 3-4 about 150-some times. I think Lawrie will definitely hit 2nd vs LHP.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Mar 12, 2016 -> 01:42 PM) Bears sign Jerrell Freeman, 3 years This is a huge move. Such an upgrade. ILB is now a position of strength.

Chicago White Sox ‏@whitesox 14m14 minutes ago Rob Brantly has been claimed off waivers by the Mariners. 54 players remain in Major League camp, 40-man roster down to 39. 6 retweets 11 likes Seems like White Sox tried to sneak him to minor league camp. Claimed by Mariners.

I wasn't looking at twitter but I got a BleacherReport notification about the trade happening and freaked out. How are these corporations getting this s*** wrong? Just look for the check mark. ESPN put it on their air again too. Just so stupid.

Broncos are trading a late pick for Mark Sanchez

Bears are hosting DL Akiem Hicks, TE Jermaine Gresham, and ILB Jerell Freeman today. Freeman is almost 30 but could potentially give the Bears the best ILB tandem in the NFL if signed. He's a really good player. Very interesting.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 10, 2016 -> 11:43 AM) I'd rather bring back Jenkins than keep Washington. Washington has proven nothing since coming into the NFL. Jenkins at least provides good depth. I'd bring back Unrein as well. Washington is an excellent special teams player though. I'd much rather keep him than Jenkins.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 9, 2016 -> 10:55 PM) What are we missing here? Does the rest of the league think he was overrated? That seems like a steal? On a sidenote, why the f*** are we backloading the deal? Why, when we have a bagillion bucks in cap space, wouldn't we front load the deal a bit more (I realize it poses some risk if a player stinks, but still, we have tons of cap space). It sets him up to have barely any guaranteed money in the last 2 years. I expect him to be good and play out the contract but most of that $12 million is in the first 2 years.

87-75

Trevathan signing is for 4 years $28 million. Nice.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 9, 2016 -> 12:17 PM) Tim Spencer is the RB coach. Former Ohio State assistant. Coaching Eddie George from 1994-2003. Any info on Spencer, Rock? Tim Spencer was also the RB coach in Chicago under Lovie.

http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/03/08/lev...-has-been-busy/ Levine is still mentioning Jay Bruce. Says Cincinnati has been scouting Sox during spring training. Also said Hahn would still like a LHH.

Mario Williams is signing with the Dolphins.

Who gets DFA'd? I'll go with Kevan Smith.
