Of course I like him because the Sox have had so few LH productive bats and his strong and accurate arm. Very likely it won't be anyone near top 10 #5 before season , #13 at time of trade plus another player w/ the Sox paying money. I'll take this as near a top ten in a system. Not top 10 at midseason...I win

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 07:57 PM) Welcome back Leury. Would be pretty awesome if he is real To me, he's easily the 2nd best hitter we have right now with Avi out. Love his stance changes.

Welcome back Leury!

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 07:53 PM) Engel has looked lost since right before the ASB His hit tool was always going to be a huge issue

Renteria got ejected according to twitter Guess it's Steverson actually.

Worst umpire I've seen all year. These pitches aren't even close. https://twitter.com/WhiteSoxUmp/status/891744800311050245

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 08:34 PM) Yeah I'd like to see him be a bit more aggressive. The balls he fouls away he seems so quick but when he swings and misses I agree with you He's fouling those balls off hard down the RF line because he's guessing fastballs in those situations.

Passive approach leads to easy K again for Moncada. He doesn't seem to be able to catch up to anything with velocity above the waist.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 07:24 PM) Rodon is pretty good today. Yep, quite impressive. Great to see

3rd time in the last week the Sox have been no-hit going into the 5th.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 07:09 PM) To me he seems to be looking at more pitches but he has been late on a lot of swings Yep, he's taking strikes and swinging at balls.

Wow, the first pitch to Abreu for a strike was as wide as you'll see

Charlotte game is on Comcast

Nice hustle by anderson

Awesome defense

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 07:31 PM) Yeah if I'm Renteria right now I'm chewing this ump out. 2 pitches easily could have been called strikes there that were closer than a couple of tomlin called strikes My god this ump sucks

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 06:28 PM) Tomlin strikes out the side Blown away by 87 mph

BA had Puckett 5th heading into year (not top 10 mid season). Fangraphs had Puckett 6th preseason

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 30, 2017 -> 05:18 PM) Davis might be a guy who benefits from being moved to the 'pen Yep good K numbers

Twins got more for Garcia than they gave up

Haha, so freaking passive. If your approach is to not be ready for fastballs, you have no prayer of being a productive hitter.

That's our DH!
