QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 05:24 PM) He's trending upward and if this team decides to sell, I think he could actually fetch a couple top 10 prospects from a team. That's why we simply have to trade him ASAP. Take the best offer and get some guys who can help the team rebuild.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 11:44 PM) What an absolute pleasure it was to watch today's game. Great defense, great pitching, solid fundamentals in the small ball game. Thoroughly enjoyed taking that in in person. Let's take 2 more this weekend. What was it like to be there? Standing room only would be a good test of the park amenities. Does it take forever to get to a bathroom stall? Are the bathrooms gross? Are the seats all cramped together compared to the Cell? Is the food any good? Long lines for food, too? Does the park seem like a sewer or not? I remember Ozzeroo used to say it was a dump. What is it like to go to a game at Wrigley now vs. the Cell?

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 02:08 AM) You guys are too tough on Avi, IMO. Let him finish out the season; he'll get his at bats. Geez, the guy hit close to .370 in 3 trips to AAA. Bad injury last year. This is his first full year in MLB. I'm pulling for him. I agree. Doesn't baseball have a hitting problem right now? Avi seems like he has a chance to be a good hitter. Maybe not but baseball is full of lousy hitters right now.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 03:02 AM) Watching the replay on Comcast....Bonifacio was out at 2nd on his steal. Thanks ump! He must have really slowed down at the end or is just slow, then. The catcher got a late start throwing it and I thought Boni was safe by a mile. If he was out, he must have slowed down a lot near the end of the steal attempt. I thought he had that baby stolen in large part cause of the catcher's lousy plant and throw.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 12:35 AM) None of the 3 balls he put in play were hit hard. Agreed. He didn't hit the ball hard today. Nothing in his background suggests he'll be much of anything in the bigs. I guess the only thing in his favor is he was a 7th round draft pick second itme around in the draft. But he's done very little in the minors to suggest he'll be anything but utility type player at best.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 10:45 PM) Thanks soler for not running That is pretty lazy for a Madden-led team. I kept expecting him to take off for first.

Sanchez with the hits and the defense. Great win.

Either a nice boring 1-0 win or Cubs steal the headlines with walkoff.

You were right. The walk by Duke is inexcusable.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 10:23 PM) I would've rather seen him. I don't trust Duke in a 1-run game with his HR rate. When Putnam is bad, though, Fathom can take him deep.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 10:20 PM) Putnam, Robertson sounds good to me No Putnam.

Well, don't shoot the messenger, but how many games have we won like this, this year? A simple 1-0 win where we had good defense and manufactured the only run. I'd venture to say none. Maybe a reverse jinx is in order here, but a clean 1-0 win seems out of the ordinary for the White Sox 2015.

Yay, Shuck. Well, win or lose it's been an efficient baseball game so far for the Sox. They got the run in.

Here comes the squeeze. Ugh.

Great bunt! If Sox don't score here I will freak out. Let's get a run and see what happens.

Nice to see a SB.

Nice. I thought he swung.

That will be overturned.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) I know Conor is going to be announced and Madden will bring in a LHP And then Conor will obviously whiff.

Is there momentum in baseball? If Sox were ever gonna score a run in a non-extra inning game it would be now you would think.

Sox brought the leather today, which is one positive. Would be nice to somehow hold them and eke out a 1-0 win.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 10:01 PM) Micah is still at Charlotte. You can make a decent case that Micah is probably close to ready right now, but I would still expect him to struggle some when he comes up. The other thing that seems important is that a couple weeks ago someone suggested that the pitching staff had gotten tired with Micah's defense at 2b and specifically started asking for Sanchez - that's probably bought him more time there. If the pitchers hate Micah, I'd trade him out of the organization. If Micah is that bad a second baseman, he's not very good of a prospect. 2Bmen are a dime a dozen.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 10, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) Carlos doesn't like to walk I know he's got two hits but shouldn't Micah be getting those at bats?

Make them pay. There's no reason we should have so many automatic outs. Score a run here!!

Another team with Sox scouted perfectly.
