Why are they calling so many freaking fastballs

Everything Jackson pulls is off the end of the bat. Still think he's opening up too early.

Avi got a great pitch to hit

Some nice luck on those outs to keep Sox in the game.

Stop throwing fastballs. I'm fine never seeing either part of this battery again

Sanchez is fun bad framing

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 6, 2016 -> 01:44 AM) Will we ever see EJ again after tonight? Nope

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 6, 2016 -> 01:43 AM) Book your flight to Charlotte, Erik. Try and get that Red Eye I bet this is it for him in a Sox jersey

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 6, 2016 -> 01:42 AM) Should have been strike three the previous pitch. Damn. Sanchez couldn't have done a worse job framing that pitch

Yep Johnson still is terrible. He has nothing on his fastball. This 5th starter issue is scary bad.

What happened to his fastball? 89-90 this inning

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ May 6, 2016 -> 01:14 AM) They're gona bomb Johnson tonight. He's missing his spots His command has always been mediocre

Offense better show up tonight

GT hired old Northwestern asst coach Tavaras Hardy. Be interesting to see if they recruit the Midwest again.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:41 PM) I didn't realize making this thread constituted making fun of the fans...is that what it really is? There's also a difference for Pirates' fans because they know they have two better opportunities to see the Cubs later in the season since they are divisional rivals. At any rate, the Orioles' attendance is also way down and they actually spent quite a bit of money in the offseason, have been to the playoffs much more recently, and got off to a similar start record-wiseto the White Sox. Like it or not, with the media focusing so much on the Cubs and their revenue machine now, it's going to be even more of a topic of comparison because it's the one profound and obvious difference between the two organizations at the current time...and a hot topic on social media as well and presumably sports talk radio in Chicago. The White Sox don't exist according to Chicago sports talk radio

Kevin Is Zack Collins gonna go in the top 15, considering his Schwarber-like profile? Klaw: He's not like Schwarber, but I've heard two teams specifically on him in the top ten, Oakland and possibly the White Sox. http://meadowparty.com/blog/2016/05/05/klawchat-5516/

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:25 PM) Thanks man. I'll check that out. I think you can though now, no? Aren't his chats on the meadow party.com now instead of the website? Yeah, an error popped up on the site just when I was going to link it.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:32 PM) Could we get Collins below slot and use our sandwich pick on a high ceiling HS player? Doubt 10 would be a bargain pick for him, as Oakland at 6 is interested as well

Can't link it but Keith Law in his chat today said he thinks Sox might be on Collins

Heard the dumbest comment on Mully and Hanley today when they were interviewing Ozzie. I think it was Mully that said that even playoff games at the Cell don't take on a playoff-like atmosphere. The Sox fan base does stink during the season, but they definitely show up in the postseason and create a great atmosphere.

Why would the game being on ESPN equate to more fans? Like I said earlier, it was freezing today.

This has been a strange, bad game thread

QUOTE (bmags @ May 5, 2016 -> 03:34 AM) Shhh....if Duke is in to face a lefty its "Duke is not a LOOGY!", when he is in to face right handlers its "why is our LOOGY in to face righties????" Just wish they would expand Jennings role a bit. Duke is gonna lead the league in appearances at this rate.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 5, 2016 -> 02:30 AM) I don't like Robin punting a close game. I'm sure they don't expect Johnson to go long tomorrow

Jennings needs to get more chances than Duke. Not sure what's going on this inning
