Jose Abreu
He's proven he cannot get the glove down and go to his left toward the line on grounders. He's still okay on digging throws I believe (albeit I haven't watched many games lately). But in the last couple games I've tuned into it seems he butchers ground balls. I didn't realize he has no homers in five weeks. That's absurd.

Crosstown Cup Game Thread, Game 1
QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 03:33 AM) I'm waiting for baseball Jesus to appear per Greg's promise. My ninth inning scenario came true. Said 50 percent chance we'd win but if we went to 10th I was gonzo. No way I'd watch. You must admit I've loved Saladino all year. Didn't you love that not only he stroked it up the middle but watch his follow thru. He crushed that single. It was a rocket. He's a damn fine player. That was a great ballgame. Not good that we blew the two run lead but Albers got bailed out and we won. Amazing how we can't just simply get a win for the starting pitcher. I was wrong about him being a hack. He pitched a fine game, leading 4-2.

Great job by Jennings. He reared back. Thank u. Now win it here. It is possible. I'd give us a 50 percent chance of winning it right now. If it goes extras, I give us a 5 percent chance and I'm turning it off if it goes extras.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 03:23 AM) Cause the story makes it look like they flat out ignored the request of Sale days, if not longer in advance. Did he handle it well? Hell no, but he has a point See guys ... I told you I backed Sale on this for a reason. Our organization BLOWS. And now I'm right. Sale was right.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 04:19 AM) What!? Lol With some people here there is just never a good time to sell anyone. Always some excuse I called for the purge a month ago. I can see our team blows but highly paid execs can't.

This is just asking the baseball gods to hit the ball hard right at somebody. Only possible way to get out of the inning. We're not getting any more outs without help from the baseball gods. Get one more and win it in the ninth. If it goes extras i'm turning it off. I know what will happen.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 04:18 AM) I had a nightmare that robin came back in 2017 to manage. Would not shock me if jr bought him back. No chance. Man that looked like a strike on 2-0.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 04:13 AM) Thank you once again Robin. You continue to amaze me with the ways you come up with to blow ballgames. You may be the worst manager in the history of MLB. He's a very substandard manager.

One big LOL. Well we got to hold them and pray for a ninth inning run. Without that, Cubs coast in extras. Our bullpen is so bad it is hard to comprehend. We led this game 4-0.

That pitch sucked. Good thing time was called.

I was pretty confident we had this one. If Cubs pull this out, bet the house on a 4-gamer sweep for the North Siders. This game is that big.

I'd almost concede the tie and pull the infield back. It's gonna take a miracle. I don't want any more base runners.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 04:06 AM) Game after game the pen sucks. Albers doesn't belong in the big leagues. Our only hope is they only get one run and we push across a run like we did twice late vs. Detroit. What chokers we root for.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 04:06 AM) Dumb move by Bryant. He deserved to get popped in the face Yeah it's dumb, but the Cubs are 20 over .500 and are sure to tie it here without a good reliever in.

What is Abreu's problem going for grounders down the line? He is so bad it's laughable.
