QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 09:43 PM) Neither were ready. The obliviousness to whether hitters are ready for a promotion in our system is becoming tiresome. Of all the coaches, etc. that come under fire on this board, the one person who has been the worst at his job the last few years is Buddy Bell.

VICIEDO!

Tied...Alexei hitting well

This doesn't sound good Seth Lakso ‏@SethLakso Hearing that after being hit by pitch, Garcia slammed his helmet to the ground and walked off the field.

Nice job by Q!

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 07:59 PM) good god, why did we call Mitchell up 0-4 with a K. Would have rather seen Thompson get the chance.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 08:05 PM) Roller City from Q today. They still have a chance in this game, but this is the flattest the team has been maybe all season.

JJ Stankevitz ‏@JJStankevitz 2m Gordon Beckham was hitting .298 on June 10. Since: .161/.209/.293 (.503 OPS) in 192 PAs. 0-2 today. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (Timmy U @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 08:56 PM) Guy who hit him was former Sox farmhand Kanekoa Texeira, part of Swisher trade to Yankees. Figures. The curse of those Swisher trades continues. Well said

The lineups this series haven't made sense. Dunn is a good sinker ball hitter, yet he sits out today after facing a pitcher last night who throws a lot of junk. Beckham, despite his success last night, is still a ridiculous choice to bat 2nd vs a RHP.

Avi was hit in the left wrist

Avi hit by pitch and has to leave

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:38 AM) Me and the guy on All in The Family. We "meatheads." Of course I hate the trade. The Sox truly could use Reed. And Davidson is horrid and the Sox have gotten a great year out of another 3B, Gillaspie, who looks like Wade Boggs, Jr. If Gillaspie could develop some power to go with the liners, he'd be quite a story. Why are we meatheads for HATING that trade? Wasn't referring to you. I was talking about the average person who isn't on a Sox message board and just looks at the stats in the paper, etc.

After thinking about this some more, JR Murphy is a likely candidate as well. I'll be honest, I'm not impressed by his minor league numbers at all.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:20 AM) Spencer Adams 1.0 IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K Have there been any reports from the AZL about his velocity?

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:15 AM) How soon do you think he'll be back in the Sox lineup ? I hope they take their time with him, unless they let him play DH. If not, he should be down there at least 2 weeks.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:11 AM) Catch a ball in LF and we're probably winners tonight Yep...the defense has been hesitant this series.

PK has owned Perkins of late

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:06 AM) Should have won this f***ing game 8th loss of the year for Belisario

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:58 AM) Part of it is coincidence. Part of it is a kid who should be in AA, still learning the league, pitch selection etc. I think it's more coincidence, but it's funny in the same way the Saturday streak was to start the year. Nieto has played much better this year than I thought he would.

Webb has to learn how to pitch up in the zone better.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:55 AM) Tough to blame Hahn too much with two of the best BP arms going down Have to disagree with you here. Lindstrom wasn't that great even when healthy, and the guys he actually paid for this offseason in the pen have flopped. I can't imagine how bad this pen would have been if Putnam and Petricka didn't step up.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:53 AM) Well we need to congratulate Rick Hahn on this wonderful bullpen. Good lord. I can't imagine what the meathead, casual fan thinks of the Reed for Davidson trade when all they do is look at Reed's save total and Davidson's .198 average in AAA.

Looking like another loss for Nieto's record

This bullpen just sucks in every aspect
