flavum Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Thompson easy triple on a ball hit in the LCF gap. Hopefully he puts it together for five months, not just here and there. Keenyn Walker started a nice relay play too. Good athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Mar 29, 2014 -> 02:27 AM) If the mental mistakes are behind him...and he's more comfortable in LF...then suddenly you have a guy whose OPS and decent speed is welcome on this team. 2-something WAR players sadly are hard to come by for CWS. I kind of liked DeAza's many 2-for-5s last year. Hated all the miscues we've talked about to death. I'd trade Viciedo now for a No. 2, 3 starter and keep DeAza.

GreenSox Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 07:18 PM) De Aza is a much better baseball player. Likely has more trade value, too. He does, but the teams interested in him have nothing to give or don't want to (like the Twins). We need some fat teams interested in him. If he has a good 2 months, this should open up. No hurry.

No way we can get a major league 2/3 guy at this point for Dayan. Same goes for DeAza, for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 03:05 PM) That would be horrible for his development. I'm already worried for Semien, as Merkin wrote in an article the other day that Marcus will likely be the reserve infielder when Beckham comes back. Both Micah & Marcus need regular at-bats, and quite frankly Johnson shouldn't be getting those above AA. And I say that as a huge Micah Johnson fan. Hence the reason I said: "Probably not the best idea for his development but hey, I'm a greedy speed prospect whore like that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 28, 2014 -> 06:51 PM) Hawk in the booth...still saying Semien won two league MVPs last year. Not true. Maybe he's thinking about Semien winning the league MVP and Micah Johnson winning the postseason MVP. Hawk is an idiot, and somebody should have corrected him on that. Hawk doesn/t sound well at all. Medically, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He complained that last year's team was the worst defensively he has ever seen . But his biggest complaint was their attitude towards playing D. This year, he said, with the changes Hahn made, there is a new and improved attitude. But then he went on to say that a poor attitude would not have happened under KW either. So who were these players and if Hahn or Williams isn't to blame is he complaining about Robin allowing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year he also started off the year being very complimentary towards the team's attitude. "not a butthole on the team" is a direct quote.
