I know Keuchel had a brutal second half but don't you roll the veteran lefty out on opening day if its a choice between him and a guy who you signed to be in the bullpen?

I bought cheap tickets today. 3:10 start let's me work most of the day so why not? My kid is in his last six weeks of school and this will be the last time I'd let him take a frivolous day off until senior year of high school

Let's not forget, he has to be on an innings limit. He has an option that gets picked up based on that.

Velasquez was the worst starter in the National League last year. Seems like you guys are really going for it.

We are a modern baseball team. Offense rules, gramps. You can relive the days of Bob Gibson in the home with your friends over some lime jello

Giolito was the worst pitcher in the league at the age of 23, Velasquez was the worst pitcher at the age of 29..big difference.

Enjoy. Should be a beautiful day. I know you're a "park on State St guy" but a friend who lives at 31st & Shields says that he received a flyer and an email about local crackdowns on parking. Not sure how true that may be, but just be aware.

The weekend looks brutal weather wise. Sox should basically offer $5 Upper Deck/$10 Lower Bowl general admission tickets.

MANY Cubs fans posting about the White Sox so far this season. Should be another glorious year

But he didn't have Ethan Katz.

And you still have your lime jello.

Enjoy.

I would not give up on him right now.

He had a lot of promise a 3 or 4 years ago. Maybe Katz can fix him.

No Vaughn in the deal. I wonder if it's Crochet and Sheets being discussed. Montas is going to be traded. I don't think he's someone you put all of your chips in for though.

Yes he is.

He already looks so much better at the plate this year then he did last year.

If Vaughn is an All-Star level bat the offense will be as good as any.

Let’s focus on batting average. Best way to judge a player’s production and potential.
