QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 10:36 PM) You are having a bad inning. unlike you i can seperate process from outcome. If I got to the slots tonight and hit a million it doesn't make playing the slots a good idea tmr.

Again, dumb decision comes very close to costing them. Garcia scores by 5 feet.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 10:32 PM) Ummm....does that mean you CAN'T pinch-run Garcia and then replace him with Viciedo if/when his spot in the order ever came up again???? no s***. what a puzzling move wtf? Dayan Viciedo is a slow ass runner.

So what is the record for not making an out? jose is 10 in a row.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 10:25 PM) You are on a roll. LOL I was proven right Jose almost f***ed it up. It's obviously the most important run in the game.

QUOTE (1dog @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 10:24 PM) Almost as bad as letting ADA face Perkins. Aluminum bat lmao And he got lucky letting Jose run for himself. Just bad managing.

this is when you PR for Jose. Right f***ing now. That's the leverage index.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 10:22 PM) Guess RV does not want to manage tonight. LOL, awesome! Playing the bad percentage worked great. Hey, his gut was right for once, I will take.

wtf where is DUnn!

Jose Abrue's OPS is 1.003. Let me repeat. Jose Abreu's OPS is 1.003. That is all. Win or lose, this team has some studs, if Sale shows up like he does 9/10 easy win. Future is looking good.

Adam Eaton is the man!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 08:40 PM) He was out in front of it. Popping out to 2nd is getting in front of it? He jammed himself broham.

We need more good hitters.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 08:32 PM) Gordon really needs a fresh start somewhere. That pitch he hit foul should have been a home run. Yea it was a hanging breaking ball. His swing is so damn long that instead of pulling it and ripping it he drops his back shoulder and makes contact with the ball when it's already out of the prime hitting zone.

Jose OBP is going to rise dramatically the next two months. He has zero protection.

Beckham gonna Beckham.

sit down rook.

Sale obviously off his game after those horse s*** calls.

god damnit, should be 2 out 1 on.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 08:05 PM) Dan Hayes ‏@DanHayesCSN 3m USA gymnast McKayla Maroney did two cartwheels off the mound before throwing her ceremonial first pitch. #WhiteSox Thank god I wasn't there I probably would have booed.

jesus that ball 4 was the perfect pitch, right on the black knee high. GTFO ump.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 05:48 PM) Franklin would not be on the Sox. They don't need more IF prospects. Compared to our infield prospects Franklin has a grade A pedigree. Marcus is playing all over the diamond at Charlotte, Micah is not even close to ready, and Sanchez they are probably going to give every shot to stick at SS. Franklin has mashed in the high minors and was a first round pick. Yea, he has floundered in MLB, but he's still young and with a prospect history way above any of our guys.

I'm guessing they had something lined up with the Mariners but then Detroit got them involved in the Price talks and Franklin went to TB. Franklin would have been a decent fit in Chicago, guy you give 150 PA to in the next 40 odd games and see if he hits enough to come into next year as the starter. Seems like Marcus is bound for a super utility guy career.

Viciedo can't even get the start against a lefty. Pathetic year from him, frustrating that this team can't seem to develop a position player in house. Or maybe they just weren't looking at the right type of guys under the previous regime. Who knows but Viciedo just the last in the line of promising young position players that for whatever reason stalled out around replacement level.

Anyone know anything about Miguel Montero? He looks interesting. Could they fleece the Diamondbacks again?
