QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2017 -> 11:00 PM) Letting him face Trout was bonkers though. That's hard to defend I'll agree with that. I would've pulled Pelfrey after the homer. But its semantics at this point from that b.s call.

Renteria has been very good this season. I got on him before but he's been right on the money with his feel for the game for the most part.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2017 -> 10:50 PM) That's the thing, he shouldn't be in the majors. He can't finish 5 innings and was lucky it wasn't 3-3 after the long fly out. With two outs and lefty up, seemed like obvious time to pull him That ball 4 call was bulls*** and you know it. https://mobile.twitter.com/WhiteSoxUmp/stat...323835251892224 Should have been out of the inning in the first place.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2017 -> 10:45 PM) Absolutely brutal managing by Renteria. Trying to get Pelfrey the win. Good thing this game doesn't matter 0 issue with him leaving Pelfrey in. Hell, a horrid call cost him extra pitches. If you can't go 5 innings, you shouldn't be in the big leagues.

I see Pelfrey is still terrible.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2017 -> 08:32 PM) No way you get both unfortunately I'll gladly take Soto. Like that kid alot and he fits Hahn and Hostetler's OBP theme.

Double for Adolfo. Extends his hitting streak to 16 games now.

2 run single for Moncada.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 15, 2017 -> 08:21 AM) But don't get it twisted. Nobody is beating GS four times. Healthy or otherwise. I actually hope so. The media jumping on this "LeBron is close to Jordan" stuff going around now is nauseating (although if Cleveland beats this Warriors team...).

The Todd father. He's approaching Adam Dunn territory in a sox uni. He's white like Asche. Noone expects anything from him spectacular at this point. Perfect win-win.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 14, 2017 -> 04:56 PM) Minaya my guess That's who I'm thinking. Maybe Purke.

15 game hitting streak for Adolfo.

Good on the box score Caulfield. Kudos.

Wasted a good at bat from Yolmer that inning.

14 game hitting streak for Adolfo since last night's game was cancelled due to a power outage in the stadium.

Well Moncada was due for a stinker game..

QUOTE (swissarmyknife @ May 13, 2017 -> 07:27 PM) Oh well, he got pulled after 6. I think they are really satisfied with this outing and he can build off of it. Nice way to try to start and put it together. Yup. Grudz doesn't wanna f*** the kid up mentally too much. Good start for him to build on. Hopefully he goes further next time out or the next one.

QUOTE (swissarmyknife @ May 13, 2017 -> 07:20 PM) Exactly, he is at 84 pitches with 52 thrown for strikes, think he goes another inning or is that enough? I say let him try and go 7. It's tough. Mentally with him, it's probably best to pull him. Him being at 84 pitches and him really needing to hit this wall he has in 6+ innings... they should leave him in. I say give him one batter and depending on how he looks with him should determine the next outcome.

Ha.. terrible break for Frazier. Long single off the wall.

First batter Giolito faces in the 6th... homer. Get it together kid. C'mon. Nice response. Gets the next 3 guys out via flyballs.

QUOTE (reiks12 @ May 13, 2017 -> 07:05 PM) This is still one of his best outings no matter what happens in the 6th. Something is working for him today, lets hope he keeps improving on it. He's had a 5 IP, 0 ER effort before. He's been solid in 5. Even he has admitted around the 6th is when his mechanics get out of whack. I'm hoping this is the start that he puts it all together.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 13, 2017 -> 06:59 PM) Saladino looks broken at the plate I still find it hilarious people wanted him to start full time here (and for a while) Dude is a utility player through and through.

Usually the 6th inning on is when Giolito falls apart. Lets see if he get over that hump.

Avi! That was a hanger he crushed.

5 K's for Covey through 2.
