WOW!

I'd pinch run Sanchez for Avila here.

PLEASE, for the love of god, score here.

Frazier's average is terrible, but it seems like he always gets hits when it matters. Big insurance run there.

I am so done with Rollins. The guy is toast.

Come on Duke, bail Gonzo out!

Frazier!!!

My ideal lineup right now: Eaton Lawrie Abreu Melky Frazier Avi Navarro Jackson Rollins

Coop can fix Gray.

This pregame discussion has just about half as many posts as the entire game thread had yesterday lol.

At first I thought they were referring to Carlos Sanchez and I was very confused lol. Even with Avila back, Navarro should get the bulk of the playing time, IMO. He's much better offensively and not that much worse defensively.

Honestly, he is replaceable if Eaton can stay in RF. If May can play a decent defensive CF and have an average bat, I'd rather have him. He has plus speed and would be cheaper than Jackson.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 9, 2016 -> 12:07 AM) Navarro's obviously not going to keep hitting like this forever, and he's going to wear down...but Avila will be going on a rehab assignment soon and he'll inevitably have his hot and cold streaks too. For now, they can continue to trawl that LH hitter market and simultaneously have the fact that Avi's at least temporarily holding his own to not force a desperation move or overpay there. Focus for the time being has to be on the 5th spot in the rotation, first and foremost. The name that's pretty interesting is Wil Myers...because he's not a "superstar" solution but he would give the White Sox the perfect mix of DH/OFers and bench. He'll become more expensive from 2017-2019, so SD might find it easier to sacrifice him than finding a taker for Matt Kemp, for example. Left-handed, can also play 1B. Would give them a lot more pop, especially from the left-hand side. His offensive numbers are being suppressed playing half his games at PetCo. Having Cabrera, Jackson, Eaton, Myers and Garcia would give you three young players under team control through at least 2019, also. Obviously, the White Sox have failed miserably with most of their OF prospects, so this is an obvious area of need. Myers hits right handed, no?

Let's start this road-trip off right by continuing our dominance over these f***ers from the Alamo State. Go Sox!

Supposedly Q had a finger cramp today, hopefully it isn't too serious.

Adam Eaton

Happy Mother's Day, everyone! Let's celebrate by sweeping these f***ers behind Q and starting the roadtrip on a nice little winning streak. Go Sox!

Frazier!!!

Hell of an outing for Sale tonight considering that 1st inning. Hold the lead and get him to 7-0.

Yes! 3-2 Sox!

Sale has settled down nicely.

Why exactly is Jackson hitting second?

Good inning there. Now chip away and score a run or two.
