Shields pitching great. Easily could have a shutout going with a competent defense.

Yep except it would probably backfire by causing umps to screw him even more. He looked like he felt helpless after the last one, so good to see Ricky sitting on his ass.

Well of course, garbage time baby

Taking strikes, swinging at balls from almost all of them. Makes you wonder about their game plan. As for Abreu, he can't get traded soon enough.

Shields getting no help from the defense, no shock. Omar is putting on a bad framing exhibition this inning.

They wouldn't do it. We're talking about the most loyal organization in history.

Yeah not too worried, and impressive he did as well as he did if that's all he had

He looks like he's 38 years old out there

It's amazing how terrible Abreu looks now. No concept of strike zone and incredibly slow swings.

Sure hope this is a dead arm or rust, as these numbers for Cease are way down. https://mobile.twitter.com/chisox2727/status/1020480771478507520

Haha replay sucks so bad

Good challenge, not on the base

Yes

I think he's also gotten bigger as he gets older, which has slowed him down a tad

Was just looking at that, seems like a rough scoring decision

LeBlanc must have reverse splits with Palka also playing

To me, absolutely not

Well Abreu still can't field

My god that's not even close to a strike.

Quick math but I'm pretty sure Collins is batting .185 without Eloy in Birmingham and .284 with him there. Probably coincidental but wonder if having someone on base in front of him more often prevented fewer shifts and got him more fastballs.

Welp he's officially a top Sox prospect now.

Contreras is also drawing rave reviews this year

Certainly possible, which makes me much rather see him than Engel or Tilson

That package puts them in the conversation for an ace. That's 4 possible top 100 guys

Can he use an aluminum bat this time?
