QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 06:06 PM) Barnum has vastly improved his K and BB rates this season. OTOH, he has sacrificed virtually all of his power in doing so. Only moderately encouraging, if that. His lack of power is astonishing

I'm a little nervous about what's going on with Montas. Hopefully it's nothing serious on/off the field.

No way do I take Matuella or Aiken.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 04:30 PM) Great, another game called off thanks to these idiots. I really don't know why this can't take place in DC or even Philly. Hopefully they can somehow get a DH in tomorrow, somewhere, making up a whole series is brutal later on in the season. Unless it matters, have a feeling some of these games won't be made up

4 straight days without a loss! Hopefully we get some help tonight from Twins/Indians

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 01:59 AM) Bryant's been an RBI machine, 9 in 35+ AB's. Of course no homers yet, but still has very reasonable BB/K ratio. Fowler's been the perfect addition for them so far. Good table setter for that 2-3-4. The injuries in the division have really helped close any talent gaps that existed.

I would have never guessed that a few years after the trade that Iglesias would be a better hitter than Avi.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 03:43 AM) The bright side that gets less bright every time I say it is that this team stands to benefit from playing as many minutes together as possible before facing better opponents. They look a lot like guys who didn't get much time on the court together this season. Can't tell if it's actually helping, though, or if guys aren't healthy enough to benefit from extra playing time They look tired as hell. Missed a few layups in 4th simply due to fatigue

If Bulls lose this series, Thibs might get fired between end of game and the post game press conference

Team has been so undisciplined this series.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 11:47 PM) Why does it seem we always tend to have the streakiest of streaky hitters in our minor league system? Usually what happens when you go after super toolsy guys that need a lot of refining (Thompson, Anderson, Hawkins). High ceiling, very low floors for all 3 of them when they were drafted.

Beck's sure not missing a lot of bats this year. Disappointing after his excellent performance in ST that we all saw on tv. Maybe he can make the transition to a set-up man?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 12:40 AM) If you wanted to get rid of Danks, we should have traded him to the Angels for Josh Hamilton and gobs of money. To quote Hawk circa 2005, where would he have played?

double/triple for Hawkins in first two ABs

Seth Lakso @SethLakso · 53m 53 minutes ago Engel Beltre was in Knights original lineup, but was removed 10 min ago. No word as to why.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 11:26 PM) Brandon McCarthy, torn UCL Suddenly, Amaro Jr. looks smart for holding on to Hamels. The Dodgers pitching is so thin right now.

They're dropping like flies in the NL Central. Homer Bailey might need TJS now. Yay, more starts for Jason Marquis.

Looked at some milb stats, and it appears Anderson and K. Walker are tied for 4th in steals (Engel's right behind them). Also, any word on Montas?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 10:23 PM) Damn that sucks, but it's in the best interest of everyone. Yep, safety first. In terms of on the field, it doesn't suck that Robertson gets a day to recover from his performance yesterday.

Dan Hayes @CSNHayes · 10s 10 seconds ago #Orioles announced that tonight's game has been postponed. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 10:20 PM) wtf...they're closing the gates as fans trying to get in?? They should get those 600 out of the park now so they can get home while it's still light outside.

Amazing how poorly this would make MLB look tonight if they play this

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 11:08 PM) Doug Padilla Doug Padilla – ‏@ESPNChiSox Just spoke to a Baltimore police officer who said the gates to Camden Yards have been closed. Maybe 600 in the park already before closure. They are absolutely nuts not to postpone this.

With regards to the game, the safety of the fans, players and event staff should always be the most important thing. I can't see how it's safe for the fans and event staff to get to/leave the game today.

Looks like it's getting closer to the park ‏@connor_guercio C gate at Camden Yards just closed down.
