knightni Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Some year I'd love to attend Soxfest. If only it wasn't an icy cold, long drive in the dead of winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 This is nice. The rate for SoxFest 2015 ranges from $389 to $528 for a two-night stay at the Hilton Chicago and up to four SoxFest weekend passes. Weekend passes for adults have been reduced over 45 percent to $40, while the White Sox offer a new $20 pass for kids (4-13 years of age) – resulting in over $100 savings for a family of four from last year’s weekend passes. Weekend passes – including special Friday night access and a limited-edition SoxFest premium item – only are available for purchase by fans who book the two-night stay through whitesox.com/SoxFest.

Heads22 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 He's going to be lifting weights and eating cheeseburgers in prep to pitch 240 innings (playoffs included, duh) in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My_Sox_Summer Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 The gift is a Jose Abreu bobblehead if you pony up for a room and weekend passes. Looks pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He continued to play in Japan, even last year. Here's a video of a walk off grany. The full AB and the crowd singing and chanting the entire AB just amazes me.

thxfrthmmrs Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Chicago White Sox 1 hr · White Sox have announced an expanded list of current and former players scheduled to appear at SoxFest 2015, including: White Sox pitchers John Danks, Zach Duke, Dan Jennings, David Robertson and Jeff Samardzija; White Sox prospects Tim Anderson, Courtney Hawkins, Micah Johnson and Carlos Rodon; White Sox greats Bo Jackson, Ron Kittle, Carlos May, Bill Melton, Minnie Minoso and Billy Pierce; and assistant hitting coach Harold Baines. http://m.whitesox.mlb.com/news/article/105...at-soxfest-2015 Not sure if they've brought out that many prospects in the past, but that's the past 3 first round picks, and the guy they pegged as the 2B of the future. I have a feeling Micah would be on the opening day roster if he could just have a solid but not spectacular Spring Training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Micah could be a productive major league player he'll be a fan favorite in Chicago with his looks. If he's an All Star the national media will love him.

If he's an All Star the national media will love him. I posted a video of an interview with him in the hitters mini camp thread. I am becoming a fan of his already, and I think the media will like him too. He's a pretty intelligent, likable dude with a lot of aspirations in life. I don't think this has been posted on here yet, but he's definitely paying a lot of attention to what Hahn and the team have been doing so far, and hopes to become a GM himself someday. http://m.whitesox.mlb.com/news/article/105...d-off-the-field The tidbit on his 40 yard dash and olympic weight training is also interesting, and could potentially make him a power and speed guy rather than just a speedster.
