Jose Abreu

I really hope we trade a Keppaspie/Gillaspinger player to make room for Semien. Even Beckham can be traded, just let Marcus start.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 05:01 PM) Zack Greinke played Shortstop in high school, do you think he's an option there 10 years later in the big leagues? No, but Butler player third base in college, and with our defense, he could definitely be an option there. Same goes for LF if we trade De Aza, move Avi to center and Dayan to right.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 04:59 PM) lol wat He wasn't too bad at LF if I remember correctly. They just needed Gordon to go there. And he's played 3rd in college/high school.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 04:45 PM) What? He played 43 innings in LF in 2007. That's it. Zero innings at 3rd. He wasn't too bad at LF if I remember correctly. They just needed Gordon to go there. And he's played 3rd in college/high school.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 04:22 PM) In what world are the Sox looking for another 1B/DH? He also plays 3B/LF.

Royals listening to offers for Billy Butler per MLBTR.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 10:22 PM) Thank god. Only four baseball-less months... Technically. At least we have the Bulls/Bears/Hawks, however, there's just this special feeling you get when you watch the White Sox that you don't get when you watch one of the previously listed teams.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 09:00 PM) Baseball starts again in March next year? Thank god. I'm such a white sox crack head. Yeah, it does, a Sunday @ home vs Twins. Sale vs their electric ace Kevin Correia. Monday, not Sunday. My bad.

Having Cano and Abreu would increase our attendance by so much- a potential ROY/MVP/CY trio.

I'm saying 60/40 that Alejandro starts at CF on 3/31

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 04:57 PM) With all due respect, he is an idiot if he believes that. Why?

Also, and this is 100% real, Jon Heyman lists us as one of ten teams potentially interested in Cano: http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/writer/jon-he...s-that-may-call

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 04:51 PM) Perhaps you should have included that when you initially posted the tweet. I did in my next reply. I'm still learning how to use this board

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 04:45 PM) Figure out how Twitter or Google work before posting this trash. I know it's not legit. I was just amused by it.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 04:42 PM) Vincent Rizzo Sports @vincentrizzosports MLB #NYYankee outfielder Curtis Granderson is VERY CLOSE to sign 5-YEAR DEAL W/ Chicago White Sox, deal worth 16 million per yr. No other sources have leaked this. Probably just some guy sitting in his basement.

Let's be realistic here. After signing Abreu, we're not going to also sign Granderson, Ellsbury, McCann, AND Lincecum.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 19, 2013 -> 01:49 AM) Do you realize what he hit this year? .261/.310/.396. We don't want a .310 OBP batting first or second, and we don't want a .396 SLG batting third, fourth, or fifth. He's a career ..280 hitter and he hits very well with RISP. Not to mention his defense is solid.

We can't just screw our team by trading young talent away to make room for a 37 year old who demands to play another year. Sorry Paulie, but goodbye.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 07:07 PM) Why? Because he's Brandon Phillips. Can hit leadoff, second, third, fourth, even fifth.

Reds shopping Brandon Phillips. Beckham, Santiago, and Webb for Phillips?

Why is everyone assuming we are definitely going to sign another big name? This may be our only signing.

We can bring back some former players this offseason. Cotts, AJ, Crain, and the amazing Brent Lillibridge.

Cubs fans be like: Well yeah but we have Javier Baez and he's gonna break the single season home run record next year!

I switched from WSI to here because it sucks... this is much better I only picked that first because a friend recommended it
