If Hawk could just call a game like he has so far this inning I'd like him again.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 2, 2017 -> 10:27 PM) That dude swing at a pitch that hit the dirt like 10 feet in front of him and for once it wasn't Jose Abreu!

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 2, 2017 -> 10:27 PM) Geo has called one hell of a game. Kudos to Hahn for this dirt cheap catching platoon that is giving the Sox quite a bit of production.

QUOTE (Scoots @ May 2, 2017 -> 10:26 PM) It feels like the Sox have the upper edge to win every game that Covey does not pitch...that is a nice feeling!!! Indeed, which is odd.

QUOTE (Blackout Friday @ May 2, 2017 -> 10:00 PM) in this isolated example, the language used by hawk was fine. Stone went too far. In a broader scope, usually the opposite. I thought you misrepresented what hawk said, so I countered. Not a big deal. it's all good, go Sox!

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:59 PM) He's a guess hitter. Sure, but he needs to learn how to guess better. He just saw the same scenario before his PA. He should have been guessing he'd throw him a slider away and off the plate.

Sally better watch out or Sanchez is going to start vulturing some playing time.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:56 PM) Really not liking what I'm seeing out of Tim's bat. No progress. it's especially annoying that he literally struck out Garcia on the same garbage slider off the play minutes ago. Is he even watching what the pitcher is doing out there?

Watching Anderson bat is either agony or ecstasy on a pitch by pitch basis, there is no middle ground.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:55 PM) After years of KC outclassing us in defense and fundamentals this is kind of a treat. It's awesome.

Haha.

QUOTE (Blackout Friday @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:51 PM) Seems to me Stone's comment is the silly one. This will be my last post on this but again: Hawk is lucky Stone is there to help him out. He could have easily ripped him a new one right there.

not even close and he swings, ugh.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:46 PM) Before he said that, Hawk said "maybe, just maybe". He wasn't guaranteeing it would be the greatest. no he didn't. Here's the full transcript: Hawk: well, I've said it before and I''ll say it again, to me, when he is retired, hopefully 15 years from now, you'll look back and say one of the greatest trades the WS ever made was acquiring avi garcia" Stone: "if he keeps playing like he's playing, he'll absolutely be up there".

All that said, Avi is having a helluva game and season so far. Keep it up dude.

QUOTE (Blackout Friday @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:43 PM) Context and verbatim are not the same thing. I'm not sure how a declarative statement, with no caveats before or after, is supposed to be put into "context". He said what he said. "It will be one of the greatest trades in WS history" It was STONE that tried to give context with "if he keeps playing like this". Hawk is lucky that Stone tries to help him instead of just hanging him out to try.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:41 PM) Way to take what he said out of context. lol, that's a verbatim quote, bruh. what context are you f***ing even on about?

lol Hawk. "the avi trade will be one of the greatest trades in White Sox history"

Wow, Avi! Great jump, good speed, good catch!

Whoever is doing the beds on CSN tonight is killing it.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:31 PM) lol wtf melky did he ever tag him?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:28 PM) Our infielders have been throwing absolute bullets tonight. is it just me or is this the most fun to watch Sox team in a while? Even last year when they were winning they weren't this consistently sharp defensively.

anderson almost bobbled that one as well. Back to basics buddy.

God I hate their logo.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:13 PM) What a nice DP sanchez f***ing fired that ball over there.
