Bob Nightengale @BNightengale 12h12 hours ago The Chicago #Whitesox sign lefty Xavier Cedeno to Minor league contract with spring training invite. He’ll earn $1.05 million if he reaches big leagues Saw this was posted, but thought it deserved it's own thread. I like this move as I think he will make the team unless he completely implodes in spring training. This will allow Bummer a little more time in Charlotte (needs to work on command) before coming back up. Sox bullpen with a healthy Jones actually looks pretty decent now.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 23, 2018 -> 01:00 PM) Enzo released. Wow More must've came out or maybe they just decided he wasn't worth the trouble anymore. Speculation on the release so quick is that he knew about the allegations in October and didn't let the WWE know.

Loving the show so far.

I think the only reason Robert is low because he's hasn't been stateside and hasn't played a game in a while outside of the DSL. Different reasons for Ohtani.

Tom @Haudricourt 39m39 minutes ago Tom Retweeted Jerry Crasnick Have been actively shopping RF Domingo Santana since winter meetings. Looking for pitching, 2B help. Tom @Haudricourt 34m34 minutes ago More #Brewers also gave great CF depth if that's their best trade opportunity.

If this happens, think we trade for Brett Phillips.

If we're talking position players going to Milwaukee, Yolmer makes the most sense for the Brewers

QUOTE (GenericUserName @ Jan 21, 2018 -> 04:44 PM) Is it the Brewers getting an OF? I thought they already had a glut of OFs and I took the tweet to mean they were going to deal one of those guys. That's how I took it. They have a ton of outfielders.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 21, 2018 -> 09:31 AM) You admitted neither of your sources said exactly what Crawford was supposedly on, yet you have posts mentioning one says crack, the second says meth. And then you say it's opioids. Was that source number 3? The story didn't need to change as it was passed along. You changed it yourself. To be fair to Chi Town Sox, other than him, I have heard the same thing that Crawford is in rehab from three different people.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jan 21, 2018 -> 01:28 AM) That just doesn't even seem possible. At age 20 1/2 he went from 6'3 to 6'4 1/2? That seems....major. I believe men stop growing when they are 25, so I think it's possible. I remember Luol Deng grew two inches in 2 years when he was drafted at 19.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 21, 2018 -> 08:22 AM) I don't buy it. If it is true, it would eventually come out, and all this talk from the Blackhawks about how they expect him back this season would look beyond ridiculous. If it is true, he is done for this season, and they know it, so at the very least they would acknowledge that he is probably done for the season, and if they are thinking playoffs, put him on Long Term IR and open up some more cap space for additions. I've heard it from three separate people as well that it is cocaine.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 17, 2018 -> 11:53 AM) And if the Nationals nixed it, it wasn't actually available. Rosenthal even had it. That was the deal and it was denied at the owner's approval of the Nationals.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jan 15, 2018 -> 08:31 AM) I'd say #3 Jimenez and???

QUOTE (gatnom @ Jan 11, 2018 -> 09:47 PM) Smith has looked horrible most of the season. Not saying he won't ever work out, but I'm not counting on him until he starts playing better. Damonte has played well as a role player, though, you're right. Ebo has turned into a decent back up as well. Has really progressed as the season has went on.

QUOTE (Da_Goob @ Jan 11, 2018 -> 09:36 PM) He needs to give the team HGH so they don't get outrebounded by the guys so much bigger than them. The team just has absolutely no size and Finke shooting 0% from 3 in big ten play has rendered him absolutely useless. Replace Finke with a transfer Center, replace Alstork with Ayo, and let all everyone grow a year. I'll officially lose enthusiasm if we don't make the tournament next year. The 2019 class is gonna be the real tell. I think Illinois lands Okoro, Liddell, and Whitney

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Jan 11, 2018 -> 09:27 PM) My enthusiasm for Underwood is officially wavering. Don't think that's fair yet. Team has shown flashes but this team has 0 inside presence and that's all on Groce. Outside of Black, Ebo is the best big right now who is actually playing well as of late.

Hawks trade Panik and Dauphin for Duclair and Clendenning. Great deal for the Hawks.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 5, 2018 -> 10:17 PM) What you guys are telling me is you didn't want me to shed some light on the fact KC fans wanted to run Soria out of town last season and blamed him for everything. I should have stifled myself I guess. Everybody from little kids to little ol ladies wanted to run Soria out of Kansas City. I enjoy reading all the stats in these threads. I guess you'll just have to wait and see. Again it doesn't matter cause we are a 60ish win team again so let Soria pitch all he wants. Those of you who root for losses will enjoy seeing him serve up meat ... UNLESS Mr. Coop works magic. ... I'll stop now. But you have to admit you can do a lot of things with stats and apologists have really been trying their best to support Jack with stats in this thread. The stats say he was pretty good, but you can ignore that like you usually do because KC fans say that he was bad. ok.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jan 5, 2018 -> 07:32 PM) In a perfect world he would have been at Kanny in 2017 instead of the DR. Tax reasons were the cause of this. It's really not a big deal.

QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 07:43 PM) Interesting. Guess they would have put him back at 3B? I'd stick him in LF with Delmonico and they can alternate playing the field and DH'ing

Greg, Soria had a 2.23 FIP last year and striking out over 10 hitters per 9 innings. He was damn good last year.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 05:53 PM) I can assure you that is not true. The bonus pod is Hall of Fame related I think he could of. If not, scrap that podcast and edit it to talk about the trade.

QUOTE (KnightsOnMintSt @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 05:50 PM) Any guesses on who could be on the move from the White Sox? I would guess a high priced player from our team (Shields) or minor league depth like Jacob May or someone like that.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 4, 2018 -> 05:44 PM) I hope Joc Pederson is involved. That is a reclamation project I could get behind. I agree with this, but I definitely think it's Kemp plus a couple prospects for something

QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Jan 2, 2018 -> 11:40 PM) I despise all of the "hot names" in coaching this offseason. Have a horrible feeling whoever they pick, they are doomed. Pick a name out of a hat, why dontcha, because everyone's getting s***canned in 2020. Well, why? They are all great candidates.
