  1. They seem to have improved as a duo this year. Steve is getting older and is losing a step, but Jason has improved by leaps and bounds.
  2. This is only half in jest. Aldi is way better than rip off Whole Foods. If you had used Mariano's I would have agreed
  3. Won't McCann be eligible for medicare in 3 years or so?
  4. If Stievers pitches well his next 1-2 starts, they'll move up together.
  5. Probably, but he's got 2 hits and scored a pair of runs tonite. P.S. he's not Adam Engel.
  6. You don't pick your team mates and that's not Jose's fault. One thing I've always wanted to say is Konerko was maybe the worst base runner the Sox ever had besides Spanky Lavalleire. He was also a pretty terrible 1st baseman too. He had good hands but if it wasn't hit right at him, he wouldn't make the play. Check out his defensive WAR on baseball reference some time. Still, the man had some huge hits for us and won a ring.
  7. I can honestly say I didn't think any one would bother replying.
  8. Hey, Abum got an out when it counts. Did he do something last year to piss off the Sox? Seems like he started slow, got it together and started getting people out, but still got sent down. I think he pitched better than other guys at AAA and still got passed over for recalls too. Any one hear some thing about that.
  9. Cease is probably 2 good starts away from Chicago. We're already past the 7th season nonsense. Just bring him up and monitor his innings. I might go to a game to see him pitch.
  10. Is it time to release Adam Engel? Is it time to play Charlie Tilson for a few months? Tilson is probably just a AAAA player but so what. He's worked hard to come back from a devastating injury and should be rewarded. I think after 3 years, every one knows AE will never hit enough to matter. It's time for a new face and Tilson is the best available.
  11. I hope not. He can dominate but gets wild some times. A high leverage reliever has to throw strikes. Of course, who knows if his arm can hold up to pitching 200 innings a year.

    That may be true. I'm only 57 so I don't remember him. My first Sox memories start with Walt Williams, Carlos May, Bill Melton and managerial wise Chuck Tanner.

    Every one screws the pooch at one time or another. His first 3-5 years he was the best manager we ever had(Chuck Tanner). I doubt we'll ever bring him back, but some one else could get an excellent manager on the cheap. He wants another chance, and he'd work for peanuts to get it.
  14. Stiever and Pilkington need to be moved up to WS after the draft, if not sooner. Bryce Bush last 10, .389 .463 .603 5 walks 8 k.o.'s
  15. 1st start after ankle roll he did fine. I still have a shred of hope about him.
  16. Jimmy Lambert, Bernardo Flores, Dylan Cease and Connor Pilkington. Depth is a good thing. Hopefully Kopech and Dunning can bounce back as well.
  17. I have always loved the Gary Redus hats and uniforms. Quite different from historical Sox gear but cool none the less.
  18. Tim is signed to a cheap contract, is young and his having a break out year. What is he worth on the trade market?
  19. Hope Eloy bounces back quickly. With that said, it looks like Ryan Cordell really could be a useful spare part.
  20. Cubs fans got a slightly less great version of Harry than we did. When people age they become caricatures of themselves, and Harry was no different.
  21. 2 years from now they'll say we're the best. When you suck for 5-6 years straight, this is self evident
  22. Gavin is about 230 pounds of muscle. If he figures out how to elevate, stand back and watch.
