Lower body injury, but you know he must be hurting to call the trainer out with 2 outs up 2 in the 5th

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 08:18 PM) lol I love when Hawk trashes the haters Except Boers and Bernstein never hated him, despite what he suggests.

Viciedo way off right now. They just have to ride it out with him and play him full time the rest of the way.

That could have been a triple play if Q caught it.

Interesting that Hawk and Stone don't seem to think scouts were overly impressed with Peavy's stuff yesterday. To me, it was the best velocity he's had all year. Neither of them had any direct comments from scouts though.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 06:15 PM) Castellanos. I don't understand the Avisail love at all. He showed more power this year in the majors, and he has absolutely destroyed AAA. Castellanos would be fine with me as well

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 21, 2013 -> 07:13 PM) Castellanos or Garcia

Just pull him and be happy with his outing

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:33 PM) I'm not so sure. Teams seem to be hording their good minor leaguers and Red Sox especially. They need to go on a 5 game losing streak. Did you see the insane package the Cubs were going to get for a rental?

I missed Phegley's double, was it close to going out?

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:18 PM) Jesus Christ is our scorekeeper brutal today Yep, he must really want Peavy to stay here

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:13 PM) Maholm looks awful. Braves fans think he'll be removed from rotation soon

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:12 PM) Sign of a great manager!!! It worked. Discipline works!!! Robin Ventura may be White Sox manager a long, long, long time! Congrats Robin and good hit, Rios. p.s. I'm a little surprised fathom you don't want to run Rios out of town for his loafing. I thought what he did and his response in the interview was horrible. My biggest issue is that this has been going on for two months and it seemed like an odd time for Ventura to finally act like a manager. Probably would have been a better idea to do something about it right away two months ago instead of letting things escalate with it.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:10 PM) Yeah he's being pretty funny in this interview, probably out of him being annoyed with the long inning And his comfort level with Karros

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:08 PM) Yep. It's not like this team is all that different from the Marlins and Astros at this point. I'm rooting for the draft pick. And considering how awful the Sox system is compared to the Marlins/Astros/Cubs, it would be nice to get that top draft pick as it also equates to more spending money on amateur players as well.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:08 PM) MANAGER OF THE YEAR ROBIN VENTURA This is the most personality he's ever shown

Greg doesn't think Rios ran fast enough around the bases!

Hard to blame that shoulder injury for this season considering his huge K numbers prior to the injury.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:06 PM) I don't want to watch the team that loses more than the Astros and Marlins. If all the right players played well and we still got the first pick, great You mean like Phegley, Beckham, Sale and Santiago? They are playing well and still losing...so lose away. Maybe it's me, but winning these games is secondary now to player development, etc.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:04 PM) I'll be happy enough with pick 3-5. I would as well, but rather have the 1st slot then the 3rd if they're going to suck.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:02 PM) I'd just assume win. People come to the ballpark trying to make a positive memory. It isn't fun watching Brent Morel kick the ball around I'd rather have Carlos Rodon pitching for 10 years to form an incredible duo with Chris Sale

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 10:02 PM) It's Morel. He probably did it himself to bypass having to hit Ventura I thought told the guys in the interview that he put it on.

Yep, Ventura just called for a bunt down 4.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 08:59 PM) The stuff is good, control is scary. Only his second time pitching since the injury though, gotta imagine his next start will be better. Oh for sure his command will get better. Sadly, he really only has a few starts to showcase his stuff for the scouts.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 09:56 PM) Luckily, I think the scouts can see that Peavy is actually pitching pretty well. He's not pitching very well. Missing his spots like crazy with his fastball and not getting a lot of swing and misses. Seems he was running on adrenaline in the first.
