caulfield12 4,085 Posted July 29, 2015 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:30 PM) Man, wasn't that an amazing bomb? Where'd they get this Kang guy. Wish the Sox had him. Signed as a FA out of South Korea, not a very expensive contract. It would have been a perfect move for the White Sox to sign him for 3B/SS, but they preferred Gillaspie/Beckham/Bonifacio. There sure were a lot of doubters who felt Kang wouldn't be able to hold his own offensively in the big leagues, and he's put himself into the Top 3-5 of the NL Rookie of the Year consideration.

Yep, he would've been great. There may be another Korean 3B coming over, possibly - can't remember the name - hope we're scouting them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caulfield12 4,085 Posted July 29, 2015 QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:24 PM) Cool. Perkins not a lockdown reliever these days. Hitters 9 for their last 20 against him. Don't forget Twins/Pirates early game tmrw, Erwin Santana and Liriano against his former team. And just announced, Thursday night will be JA Happ (Mariners) against Phil Hughes, the last game before trade deadline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabiness42 0 Posted July 29, 2015 We want the Tigers to win this one, right? I think so. First of all, the Tigers are behind the Rays in the standings. Secondly, the Sox get more shots at the Tigers to take them down themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GGajewski18 151 Posted July 29, 2015 I hope the Tigers win, so they buy and continue to suck after that. We win tonight and gain a game on the Rays in WC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
