QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 11, 2016 -> 08:17 PM) I'll always have that 9 or 10 pitch at bat of his that led to a walk a couple days ago in my memory bank. What a man. What a player. What a legend. Sad to see him go. that was a helluva at-bat though

Some soothing info here... recent events have brought us up to #11 in Offense by Fangraphs -- of all MLB.

No blaming the umps last night, really. We deserved to lose that one a few times and we probably deserved to lose the night before too. 1-1 is about right after all the baseball i watched during the last 48 hours

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 1m1 minute ago 9:05 is expected restart for this one, with Sox trailing Rangers 2-1 after 2 innings.

20 months ago Rodon was pitching in college games. Seems many here dont grasp that to move that fast into being an above average pitcher is very hard to do. The one hard hit ball so far was an out, btw.

Maybe it's been mentioned - but as the GS is being celebrated, you can see Abreu telling Lawrie not to hurt him Lawrie gets so pumped up and aggressive that people probably get bruised after clutch HRs lol

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ May 9, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) So who comes up for Sands tomorrow? No way they keep on the club after that s***. It's not really his role though. He's a DH vs lefties who has a pinch hitting track record

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 9, 2016 -> 09:22 PM) That FlavaFraz nickname really needs to be retired before it gets started by anyone else... It's Todd Frazier's twitter username

the Franz Ferdinand music choice there -- pretty funny

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 9, 2016 -> 03:35 PM) I'd put Hammel in there instead of Lackey if you're willing to put Fowler in front of Heyward. maybe. what i found interesting was when league and ballpark factors are put in, hammel is far and away fifth of their five starters. yet the ERA is pristine. of all five, lackey is missing the most bats

These all-city teams get put together each year. Do we want to speculate a little early? Preseason the joke was that the all-city team would be all Cubs. I'm seeing us with six spots: LF: melky CF: fowler RF: eaton 3B: bryant SS: russell 2B: zobrist (tough luck for lawrie, career year type start for him) 1B: rizzo C: navarro (factoring in the great work with latos) SP: sale arrieta quintana lester lackey closer: robertson I'll go against the sabr perspective to put robertson in there. but latos cant go over lackey. every indication is that latos has been a beneficiary of outside forces, whereas lackey has been hurt by them. lester makes it but it should be noted he's been fortunate to be leaving so many on base avisail wins the DH battle as he is running unopposed (though last year his WAR lost when compared to 0.0, so this is progress) Alright tear me apart!!

We have to prepare ourselves for Fulmer potentially being a reliever for most of his career. This is not to put him down, but guys like him are particularly made for that role. He will of course get a lot of MiLB opportunities as a starter b/c of the high draft status

For those that are interested - the '94 Sox and the '05 INDIANS are mentioned here in graph listing recent "no-weakness" teams http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-cubs-lo...-baseball-team/

For those that think Jacob May's bat would replace Austin Jackson's seamlessly, here's an idea of how well AJax did as a minor leaguer: AJax AAA .293/.349/.389 AA .285/.354/.419 A+ .345/.398/.566 May AAA .273/.321/.374 AA .275/.329/.334 A+ .258/.326/.395 So the trajectory May is on would have to radically change for him to be an everyday MLB bat. Granted, his AAA numbers are only 100 ABs, but for this bat to be an everyday CF, he would have to have game changing defense on his side. May however projects to be just adequate-to-good. If the goal is to save $5M with AJax next year and spend it elsewhere, I suppose I could get behind this. But i worry b/c our OF depth is so awful..........that you'd hate to give up on this thing if Jacskon really wanted to come back w/ no salary raise

Earlier tonight reminded me that Avi as a young player was palatable because he was beating out dribblers to first. Creating his own BABIP luck.

the Sox offense just doesnt like me, i think

QUOTE (bmags @ May 7, 2016 -> 05:29 PM) I would enjoy a fast game I have a movie at 9 om Able to catch a later show?

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 1m1 minute ago Brian Dozier isn't in Minnesota's lineup. Battling a hamstring. Wanted to play. He's a .289/.341/.632 hitter vs. Chris Sale.
