Buehrle>Wood

Wonder if Cubs fans will realize they still have to win another series

Miller 1 more then Allen?

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 20, 2016 -> 04:23 PM) I mean he looked in awful shape at Mania afterall. I thought he looked good? Austin not so much. AJ vs HBK would be the two greatest in-ring performers ever facing off. No way could it live up to the hype tbh.

Are you serious Utley?

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 19, 2016 -> 01:10 PM) The only thing with Buck is sometimes I find his manner of announcing dispassionate. Really big triumphant moments are just met same as any other. "And the white sox have won the world series" Buck is awful

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 19, 2016 -> 11:10 AM) On Tuesday, the Blue Jays ensured life for another day as they took Game 4 of the ALCS against the Indians and cut their series deficit to 3-1. Out in L.A., the Dodgers suffocated Cubs bats yet again in Game 3 and now lead the NLCS by a count of two games to one. That means it's time for a reset of our LCS and World Series odds. Per SportsLine, here are each playoff team's updated chances to win the LCS and World Series, sorted by World Series championship chances: Team Win LCS Win WS Los Angeles Dodgers 70.4% 40.9% Cleveland Indians 86.6% 36.4% Chicago Cubs 29.6% 17.0% Toronto Blue Jays 13.4% 5.7% Needless to say, the Dodgers' win in Game 3 over the Cubs was a critical one, as it drastically improved their postseason outlook. As for Wednesday's slate, all four teams will be in action, and the Blue Jays are once again one game from elimination. Likewise, though, they're one game from sending the series back to Cleveland. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-play...ilities-101916/ All I'm reading is an 83% chance the Cubs don't win the World Series

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 10:54 PM) I guarantee Kenley goes 2 innings tomorrow if games is close. Agreed. And gell pitch game 5 if it's close, and they're up 3-1 with a lead.

Andrew Miller threw 5 innings those first 3 games, 9 innings this postseason and was available today I believe. I don't see them treating Jansen much different.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 10:21 PM) Why bring back Jansen with a 6 run lead? Would be nice to have him available for both games 4 and 5 if needed. I'm sure he will be

Also not a good postseason for Montgomery. They need a long man man for a quick pull on Lackey. He's usually it. Do they have someone else?

I think you can take him out now

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 10:00 PM) Was hoping Jansen wouldn't have to be used today. They'll freely abuse his arm this series until it falls off.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 09:55 PM) It's my favorite part of the postseason I honestly hate it at this point. It's like "woe is us, we deserve the world series. We have to be the center of attention no matter what". Focus on the winning team fox.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 09:29 PM) Something is wronggg with Jake, no way he is an Ace. Stricter testing?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) Now it makes the decision with going Maeda or Kershaw for Game 5 even more interesting...it feels like you have to go for the jugular with Kershaw, but the Cubs win that game and the Dodgers are back in trouble. That said, Hill is a nice back-up option to have behind Clayton. This also takes a ton of pressure off Urias, and puts it squarely on the Cubs' LH hitters in a nearly must-win Game 4. You pitch him 5 so you have him for 7 too.

That smackdown main event was fireeeeeee. Most entertained I've been in a long while

Saw the Dodgers last night in the +125 range and now they are the favorites. Pretty good swing there. Hope vegas knows.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 05:09 PM) So there is some LMA trade rumors floating around. Some ESPN analyst said that the 'experiment isn't working out' in San Antonio. Anyone believe this? Is LMA's Defense around the rim the problem? Whoever said that should be told they put up the 7th best record in NBA history last year.

White Sox Dave says Great Hire.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) Horrible send I guess know your players, but legit just about anyone in MLB scores there

Wow gonazalez is incredibly slow

MSU has as many losses as the other 4 Michigan schools combined.

The 7th inning was 1 hour 6 minutes. Insanely long game here.

That was legit the worst send I've ever seen, unless Werth went on his own.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 11:50 PM) Not even close to being on paper the best team in franchise history. And the reason they won only 86 games was because these were the guys the Sox used that year in the back end of the rotation: Dan Wright, 15 games started, 1-7, 6.15 ERA Josh Stewart, 5 games started, 1-2, 5.96 ERA Mike Porzio, 3 games started, 1-1, 6.43 ERA Neal Cotts, 4 games started, 1-1, 8.10 ERA This was the season where Kenny Rogers was a free agent and the Sox were interested in him but when he asked for one million dollars to pitch for them, Kenny thought that was to much and said no. Rogers signed with the Twins, went 13-8, threw 195 innings and I think was the pitcher of record the night Minnesota clinched the division in Chicago. Mark Then name one better. You simply can't come close finding a White Sox roster with the star power they had. Frank Thomas, Magglio Ordonez, Paul Konerko, Carlos Lee, Robbie Alomar, Carl Everett, Jose Valentin and Joe Crede in one lineup is insane. The bench was amazing too. Then you had Colon, Buehrle, Garland and Loaiza during his run for the Cy Young. The bullpen wasn't deep but you had Flash Gordon and Marte pitching in every other game while he was a top 3 reliever in the league. Everyone is aware of the 5th starter struggles but what probably hurt them equally as much was Konerko and Buehrle having really down years. If those two have normal years, the division probably looks a lot different.
