What the hell is wrong with Petricka now?

I don't think I'd eat this even if I was on a desert island starving to death.

I'm assuming Covey is as good as gone then.

Yesterday was actually really nice, especially when the sun was out. It's a shame the rest of the week has been so bad weather wise.

Being there today was so, so, so frustrating.

Well, this should be interesting. My worst nightmare would be to get all the way down there just to have them move it to tomorrow.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 12:57 AM) I was told there'll be a call by 6 AM. So I'm assuming they're still planning on playing today then?

Kevan Smith.

I'll be so bummed out if it rains.

I'm going with 67-95 and the 3rd overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft. I hope they're worse than that.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 28, 2017 -> 06:07 AM) ? They needed a right handed hitting OF. Now thry have one. All it cost is cash. Why didn't they sign him before Spring Training started then? I wouldn't pay anything for Bourjos, even if it is just money. He's mediocre at best and I don't know how the Rays don't have a minor leaguer they could've given an opportunity to instead of him.

Not sure if it really makes a difference for a fringe prospect like May, but why not keep him in the minors for a couple weeks to get the extra year of control just in case he becomes something in the big leagues?

I'll never, ever, ever understand the Rays.

Why exactly is the majority of this thread about politics instead of Giolito? I purposely avoid the filibuster section because I come here to talk Sox...not to have to go through tons of political posts and see people bickering at each other.

I'm calling him Twinkie, not sure about you guys.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 26, 2017 -> 04:34 PM) I hope Benetti is in and out after a few years. There, I said it. Agreed. He's so bland.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 25, 2017 -> 12:18 AM) I disagree with almost everything written in this thread by posters so I will refrain from commenting unless you really wanna hear my opinion. I'll spare you of it since I disagree with almost all posts nowadays during the alleged rebuild. I really want to hear your opinion. Please tell us your feelings.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 24, 2017 -> 09:34 AM) Buy whatever you'd like. Meadows isn't an option. If he were, the deal would have been consummated. I feel like we did this same thing with Trea Turner and Alex Bregman. Not happening. Then why would Hahn still be talking with Huntington if he was insistent on not moving Meadows? It sounds like Meadows is a must for the Sox.

If Meadows is off the table entirely, I don't think the teams would still be talking. I don't buy it.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Mar 24, 2017 -> 08:37 AM) 225 Twinkies? Has Yoan been hanging out with Afroman, Jay & Silent Bob? I guess we know why Tallahassee was so pissed in Zombieland. Holy hell that's alot of sugar. Twinkies are disgusting. Ho Ho's/Swiss Rolls FTW.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2017 -> 08:43 AM) Because of the first two deals, the Sox have to get a top position player as a headliner in this deal. Really they should be at least the top two players. More pitchers just puts the rebuild further behind. Not true. It's about collecting the best talent possible. I'd prefer an elite hitter over an elite pitcher at this point too, but I'm not going to turn away an elite prospect for a decent one just because of the positions they play.

I have a feeling that something will happen soon.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 24, 2017 -> 07:23 AM) Mike, I'm not sure 23 would be considered old for AA. In fact, I'd guess it's right around league average or maybe even a little below. Regardless, Delmonico has real talent even if recent prospect rankings haven't recognized it. Part of that is due to the troubles he had in Milwaukee, where he quickly lost a lot of goodwill. Having said that, there's no denying how impressive his AA season was for us last year. Rarely do you see guys post numbers like that in Birmingham. 23 isn't super old but it's not super young either. He might be one of those guys that develops at a later age. I hope he gets some time in Chicago this season. He's an interesting prospect for sure.

He absolute tore up AA last year; albeit as a 23 year old, but still. He's only 24 right now. It'd be great if he turned into a 1-2 WAR regular in the lineup.
