Waking up and your team is no longer 30 under. Thank you God for small favors. Now we have a pathway to quality even if it does not come to pass.

The guy with the career resume gets the nod but Gio could be the next guy in.

But would we trade Yonder and Jay for Avi. jk

Luke Voit was pretty ticked at almost getting buzzed in the face after his HR. I don't think the head should be a target.

So we have a pitcher who comes along as a pleasant surprise and now he may not be ready until he is 28. Something is very wrong. The game may not be able to sustain all of these pitching injuries.

Eloy's bunting skills are pathetic. He needs more seasoning in the DSL.

Stan Bahnsen went 21-16 then 18-21. Does anyone remember Fritz Peterson and Mike Kekich.

There were classic rockers who did not know how to react to the whole gender bender thingy. Mostly it was regret that classic rockers felt with disco pushing more serious and substantial music out of the way. Times change. I don't recall any ethnic cleansing and most rockers loved and merged with the Motown scene. That was a great part of the 60's and 70's.

Not a Harry fan. He had a serious illness but was not nice to people. He treated Milo badly too. I don't know how Stone put up with him.

Jason was actually funny. Gregorious had Elton John surgery.

Should have been a Sox lifer. Injuries suck but you have to protect yourself.

About three weeks before LaRussa was brought in.

Most white bands were coming up with a disco song or two. You had to keep up. The great sadness was the fading of the Woodstock era and classic rock.

When the mid-70's hit my band couldn't figure out whether to dress like boys or girls so they broke up and said screw it. I'll take Steely Dan with The Fez.

What I regret is that Bronzeville was once the jazz capitol of the universe and those traditions have been thoroughly dissed.

It was a Mike Veeck fiasco. Jimmie Piersall was looking for Steve Dahl to kick his azz. We always went to Detroit games so my brother bought tickets. I declined because I already knew what would happen. The players were dodging frisbee records game one and it got worse from there. RF was ruined and they later poured sand all around. Claudell Washington refused to run after balls which inspired the best-ever banner Washington Slept Here. Sorry I missed the political message but music began a long period of devolution thereby.

ALC breaking: The Royals have moved to Omaha. In fact they are hosting the Tigers there tonite.

Joe did a lot of belly flops and paid the price. Not worth it.

1964 Sox won 98 and their last nine. Yanks won 99 and their last ten.

Always tempting to think about this rivalry from many historic seasons in the 50's and 60's except the Yanks get some of their lowest crowds in present day Chicago.

My beef with Jose is that he is one of the least athletic players in the league and he doesn't seem to care about his conditioning, judging by his appearance and his movement on the field.

Not only are you right but management considers him the leader of the rebuild and our Cuban ambassador. Once he stops digging in the dirt for crappy sliders he usually takes over the league for a couple weeks. Now let the teenagers spat over him for a while.

I hope that is ok. Ironically he became quite conservative unlike his parents. At the time we thought he needed some encouragement. There are some kids who get overlooked or don't fit the mold at school. I would not use the word integral.

Long time Cub fan Eric Zorn has had a falling out with his favorite team over some of the things that have been in the news in recent months. He now claims to be a Sox fan. I recall in the late 70's Royko claimed to have switched to the Sox but it was really just a publicity stunt. Anyway we could use some more celebs and I don't mean John Cusack.

Getting a trophy was encouraging to my son who turned out to be very competent in his chosen field but not an athlete.
