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

Just think how good Madrigal would of looked in this lineup. Jesus Christ!

3 fucking terrible moves with one player. Trade, option picked up, trade.

Until he injures himself getting thrown out at third.

Lot of love for a guy that hit 235 last year

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

Vaughn's OPS last year was .709. Let's not make the same mistake Theo did with the Cubs and deal young players after their value sunk. Vaughn for Montas makes way more sense than the Madrigal trade last year. Lot easier to find a corner OF/1B/DH than a second baseman.

They have a special running this week for half price tickets in a few sections. Upper deck for $7.50, 100 level for $24. Taking my daughter Sunday, and it was about $55 total with fees, for section 111.

Madrigal couldn't stay healthy. I enjoyed watching him play, but there are many reasons to value Vaughn over him.

Yup absolutely Fucking Brutal .

A game that saw 5 total runs and 13 total hits took over three hours and twenty minutes to play. A slow starting pitcher who went 4 innings is only part of the problem there.

That's what we call a nine beer game. The fewest beers I ever drank during a Sox game was three during a Buehrle start.

Was that one of the Mulder match-ups? I was in the outfield for one. Game was a tad over 90 minutes.

I can't remember the last time I saw so many wasted people at a game. The upper deck is incredibly steep for a person who has his wits about him. I saw two drunks separately tumble down multiple rows yesterday. I went to Ricobenes afterwards and the drunks were all looking for something to soak up the alcohol. The place was packed

This guy sucks. Can't field a grounder back to him and can't make a throw to 2nd to hold the runner.

marginal pitchers can't afford to walk players

I guess he starts until Cueto is ready and Giolito is off IR, which both should happen by May 1.

I didn't account for Larussa giving games away before they start.
