Always thought rule was two bases from where you are at when ball is thrown (and goes into stands)

Trade these relievers ASAP!

That was clearly intentional to Abreu

Replay is a joke

Giolito looked better than earlier in the year but command was way off tonight. Still didn't see many, if any, swings and misses on his fastball. Charlotte defense is still pretty terrible

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 16, 2017 -> 12:20 AM) At least defensively he's locked in. Nope...at least he doubled. He just doesn't have normal SS movements on defense

Umpire might be blind for Giolito. Won't call anything on inner half. With that said, Giolito up in zone with every offspeed pitch

Anderson coming out of the ASB looking like he's never seen an offspeed pitch. Same thing happened last year

Nevermind, super hot gun. Has Blair at 100 and that's not even close to how hard he throws

Giolito hit 96

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 08:37 PM) I was just going to ask that question. Do they actually go out and give these guys physicals? Based on the Padres scandal last year, a lot of it has to do with reviewing the treatment history players received

I remember when Cubs traded for the Orioles slot money in the Arrieta trade. They used it to sign some bum named Eloy

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:27 PM) Hah, touche'. But someone still has to pitch! I'm sure Minfanoa will be ready (trio of Infante, Minaya and Ynoa)

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 06:25 PM) Wow, that's a f***ing murderer's row if I've ever seen one. Hahn needs to get these relievers moved before they die. You're assuming they have a lead?

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 06:25 PM) Instead of taking on Panda's contract I would rather see the Sox put that money towards paying Giancarlo Stanton. I agree if it means getting Yellich in the deal with minimal prospects included

Did they ever announce new rotation after Q left

Holland scheduled for tomorrow according to mlbpress

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 07:01 PM) Btw, our starter was changed from Holland to Pelfrey tonight... Probably to push Holland back to sunday due to Q gone. I did find it interesting Kahnle warmed up for the 7th instead of Swarzak last night

Pretty disappointing observation on how Call looked. https://www.minorleagueball.com/platform/am...adres-white-sox

Panda is far too large to flip. The Boston guy did say last night the deal isn't inevitable.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 05:03 PM) Ahh, good thinking. I can't imagine wtf is holding this up unless it just got much more complicated for some reason. Honestly think these deals just take 24-72 hours for completion

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 04:06 PM) raBBit mentioned they were at the medical stage last night...maybe there was a snag and they are trying to settle on another player. All the s*** on twitter just keeps saying things have "intensified." People are just making s*** up trying to bide their time until its actually announced. He said almost in medical stage, which means nothing agreed to yet

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 15, 2017 -> 04:03 PM) Mid next year seems a bit extreme unless they decide to pull him off 2b. Seems like a good way to make him dislike the org
