He's been lousy but it's too early to start the parade of mediocre relievers.

I still like baseball, but what's with all the homers this year?

This is cool. We are all united in blaming the umps. Sox had a nice inning. The umps hosed us.

Why no rain delay? Radar look good?

That call blows.

Early in the game but would be awesome to tie it with a single.

Nah. The bunt sucks IMO.

Good speed. We seem to be a decent hitting team in the rain.

That was too close to take. Cordell is not one of my faves yet.

Are u allowed to bring umbrella to The Cell and Wrigley? Just wondering. If not what is the reasoning?

Some of our good hitters are having good games again. Wish we had a few more but can't complain. Good game so far.

I realize he won't be back but he's one of my faves.

No, the team would be ugly without the trades. Who knows who we'd have drafted if we were a few spots worse. So far our draftees are not awesome. Eloy forever!

Thank you sir. I try to contribute when i can here.

18 HR, 47 RBI. Batting average doesn't matter any more. He has a healthy 31 walks for a good on base percentage as well. What's with the citing of BA? Who cares.

Does Madrigal project to be ... Scott Fletcher? Under 6 foot guy who will have a couple good years but good enough to stick around forever like Gordon Beckham has? Fletcher also was not tall.

Of course not. The Eloy trade in my mind makes me OK with Hahn being our GM forever. A trade or two is fine. I never saw the need to tear everything down and never will. For instance, the rebuild is continuing with my feeling that the Sox still don't care about making the playoffs this season. My type of fan is one who says, hmmm we are .500. Let's do the tinkering that gets us in the playoffs NOW. In summary ... greg now is a Hahn supporter forever because of one trade (Eloy). I'm not trolling. I am serious. You won't hear any more negativity about Hahn from me. Also ... I am OK with Ricky now because of what I deem the overachieving of this team. ELOY, please stay healthy. Baseball and the White Sox need you.

The Jose haters will never change. They for the most part are the new age stat people who, when they think of Jose, think of somebody who has horrible advanced stats thus needs to be traded now. The HRs and RBI pretty much mean nothing. In the new era, he's ancient at 32. He's also been around one team too long and it's soon gonna be time for a mysterious new name: Vaughn or Collins to play first, Eloy to DH leaving no room for Abreu. I'll say one thing that will disappoint new wavers in this scenario. Guess what? Eloy is going to play LF a long time. He's not going to be DH even though some of you are demanding it.

It just drives me crazy. It's like the stat people just have to prove how smarter they are than traditional stat peeps by insisting Jose blows. They find an advanced stat and won't consider homers and RBIs at all. I've said it before I worship Jose Abreu in the baseball sense of the word and considering my disdain for what I consider a cheap owner, I wouldn't be upset if we signed him four years at 16 mill a year. Again it's not my cash. I think a fair deal would be 3 years 39 million. Jose is a masher!

Great picture. They say newspapers are dying but where else can you get such a special picture and such a special headline? Jump for Eloy is a special hedline.

I love fathom but cmon; he's way more negative and positive in the game threads where he posts the most. I worship fathom but this is silly praise IMO.

What a game. This is not hyperbole. Eloy will own this city a long time if he can stay healthy. Hahn will go down in history as one of the stars in Chicago front office history over one trade. Might as well give Hahn a lifetime contract. You steal a man mountain like this ... you get the rewards baby. Eloy is that special. At any rate, no negativity tonight. Just enjoy Sox fans. Think of how mad those Cub fans are leaving this game because of ELOY!!!!!

Colome reminds me of Tom Gordon when Gordon was good. Luv u Colome. Do the job.

Cubs fans going nuts on a routine fly ball! Stupid. One out.

In honor of Hawk: "You've gotta be bleeping me!" I love u Eloy.
