caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 15, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) Alright boys, time to score some f***ing runs. Been in this thread for 15 minutes and already sick of the negativity. When you walk 7 and Jamie Carroll's in the game....hard to expect much optimism, especially with the Royals, Tigers and Twins winning. Plus, the A's are basically another version of the Twins, except less hitting after Semien and Reddick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:10 PM) Who? Thompson? Anderson? Sanchez and Johnson? Kevan Smith? If the season spirals out of control at some point, then I think you start Johnson at 2B, Sanchez at SS, Smith at C, and give Thompson some time in the OF. Anderson is not close to being ready IMO. Unless he develops some patience in the second half of this season, he'll need to start next year at AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually agree about trying to get Sanchez and Johnson as many at bats as you can if things get real bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2015 -> 11:03 PM) I think I'm one of the few that would like to see the younger guys get some shots this year. I think its time to build while we still have Abreu, Sale and Q under control. Avasail coming around is a bonus as well. I'd like to deal Alexei as part of this. I agree with all of this. Certainly if Rodon can be up here, they can find you players in lieu of Carroll, Shuck, Bonifacio, etc. or some combination thereof.

I would like to see Thompson as the 4th Of'er at some point. I do not believe in "rushing" guys since I think the game is very different at every level. I know im in the minority but I like some of that talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) Yes I do. Maybe his stats arent there yet but I like him to replace Alexei and I feel like this is the time to deal him especially with better players coming on the market eventually. But we haven't really been in the market for the guys like Hanley Ramirez or Sandoval. We can have Beckham/Conor tread water, but it's almost impossible to replace 3b, SS and C quickly or cheaply.
