ChiSoxFanMike Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I don't get this at all. He was awful last year. Hopefully it's just some Minor League depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILMOU Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 01:26 PM) nooooooo Really don't want to see him pitching on the south side - that would mean things are going badly among the other Charlotte possibilities. But we're not super-deep, so I get it. Edited April 3, 2015 by Stan Bahnsen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another good sign management wants to contend this season. Keep bringing in bodies in case it's like last year and guys are effective for 1-2 appearances then get lit up. Hope Coop is enthused and ready to manage some bodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't suppose it'll hurt to have him in AAA just in case, but it doesn't sound good that the Angels cut him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 02:17 PM) *both middle fingers extended towards Jose Paniagua* I'm not sure why, but Scott Linebrink might be my least favorite Sox player of all-time. In my head, it feels like he single-handedly robbed us of two or three World Championships. No idea why his impact is so hyperbolic and overstated in my head.

southsider2k5 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Minor league deal? Awesome. Hopefully Rick Hahn is filling up his BOGO punchcard and gets one free here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Lindstrom at times is a decent enough 6th / 7th inning swing guy. He is not a closer or an 8th inning guy. Relievers can be streaky so I have no problem with Matt on a minor league deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
