  1. QUOTE (OilCan @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 03:55 AM) What does he throw? I'm thinking FB, CH and something else. Thanks. I have currently no update of his pitching arsenal. His FB is great and he's supposed to have a CH and a curve but I'm not sure about the quality of those.
  2. QUOTE (ScottyDo @ May 24, 2012 -> 02:54 PM) BOXERS, DAMMIT! Boxer shorts or boxer briefs? BIG difference!
  3. Jefferson Joseph Olacio, LHP - Bristol Sox Born 01/16/1994 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic 6’7”, 230 Throws/Bats: L/L Jefferson Olacio, 18 years old, is a huge guy at 6’7” and 230 lbs. He signed with White Sox for $125 000 in 2010 and played in the Dominican Summer League White Sox last year. He had big control problems last year with a 9.08 BB/9 but he also had a K/9 to match. He has a great fastball and is working on his curve and change-up. Jefferson spent the 2012 season split between Kannapolis and Bristol. His BB/9 is down from awful 9.08 to still not very good 6.00. His SO/9 is also down, 8.34. Turning 19 in January 2013 he's still very young. He was part of the instructional league squad this fall.
  4. With third placed teams having a chance to reach playoffs, how will play-in work this year? Let's say the season was over now with the current results standing. Baltimore, Cleveland and Texas are obviously through with Tampa grabbing one of the wildcards. Then what? Currently Sox, Yankees, Detroit and Toronto are all on .556. Would Sox play Detroit because they are in the same division? And which team would be playing at home, both in that game and in the next play-in game? And does it even fit into the schedule? I know it's highly(!) unlikely to happen, but still?
  5. I'm just so incredibly happy right now! It's closing up on 1am and I'm going try and get some sleep, fat chance. Philip Humber is my new hero, this is just amazing!!! I started to get nervous already in 5th and pretty much completely stopped caring about the Sox offense. I'm surprised my heart didn't collapse from this!
  6. QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 11, 2012 -> 08:14 AM) Living in California definitely has some negatives. 9:05am baseball is one of them. I don't even wake up until 9:15! Le sigh. Don't complain too much. My normal game time is 1:05am or 3:05am so this (7:05pm) is a million times better
  7. I'm really nervous about Sale tonight. I hope he has it in him but I won't believe until I see it, there's a lot more pressure now.
  8. QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 24, 2012 -> 07:18 PM) Cool... http://twitter.com/#!/rickygervais/sta...599830218715138 That tweet is now gone... What did it say?
  9. QUOTE (Cali @ Mar 22, 2012 -> 10:32 PM) Fun game. In those appreciate the game commercials, watch the players hands. You can tell how nervous they are. Crain is the worst I've see. Hawks gota really twitchy right thumb as well... Meh, now I can't stop looking at their hands at every commercial. Thanks!
  10. I enjoyed the "stolen pillow" story on the radio. Also enjoying the game!
  11. QUOTE (TitoMB @ Mar 6, 2012 -> 10:58 PM) I was yesterday. I think I thought that was for all of spring training, not just the first game. For free streams during ST, check the Web-column at http://www.csnchicago.com/blog/whitesox-ta...mp;feedID=10338
  12. I have MLB.TV Premium, but my brother doesn't and he couldn't access even when logged in.
  13. I just even noticed it wasn't Flowers catching anymore. Phegley now? Sound quality is crap right now... Sounds like the commentator is a computer!
  14. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 6, 2012 -> 10:07 PM) Then he steals second, and Dunn walks. I'm starting to feel sorry for Dunn!
