  1. It looked like it was in the pinkie area. Even if he is hurt, I don't think it would be a long thing.
  2. He didn't take the cutoff in the baseline. He was on the other side of it and chased down the throw. He did what anyone would have done in his position and if it happened against the White Sox you would be going after the umpire.
  3. He was going after the ball that was thrown to him. Get a clue.
  4. Donaldson is a jackass, but I don't know what he is supposed to do there.
  5. First off, its a back up catcher, so temper the expectations. Secondly, the guy isn't used to sporadic playing time. Finally, he isn't playing based on opposing pitcher match ups. He is catching certain guys for the most part.
  6. It's weird, but Leury has been playing with a banged up knee. Maybe it was a little sore today.
  7. Leury is good to go tomorrow. Wanted to give him the day off with the quick turnaround.
  8. Correct. It's basically just a bar at that point.
  9. A trick for no wait Au Cheval. Get there between 430 and 445. They don’t start serving burgers until 5 pm. I have done this 4 times and it has worked every time. Get a couple cocktails in you, then ask for the dinner menu.
  10. Billy is such a bad hitter, he doesn't need a rehab assignment.
  11. It's probably a little tricky. They probably know they are going to need more than Escobar. I am sure they hope they can stay above water as long as possible to give the injured a shot at returning, but more players is taking on more money. Taking all of Escobar's contract probably gets it done, but i don't think the Sox want to hamstring other moves by eating it.
  12. They probably have to get his OK for the money, and he probably isn't that accessible right now, so it is possible.
  13. It is so muggy out there. What is the over/under on how many times Steve Stone mentions a lively park tonight?
  14. Who knows what everyone's value will be in a couple of years. A couple of months ago, a lot of people would be laughing if someone said the cost of a player that could help the team win was Collins or Burger. At some point, all these guys are going to start making significant money at the same time. They may wind up trading off a piece or two if guys like Burger, Cespedes or Colas show they are capable.
  15. Totally disagree. Selfish is a guy who has to be feeling great to consider playing. Would rather just cash his check. This is a guy who wants to help the team win. It's up to the team to determine if he is not physically up to it, and do what they have to do.
  16. The weird part about it was Hamilton was batting righty when he hurt himself.
  17. RIP.Sounds like it was not unexpected. Reading some articles, she seems like she was a really good person.
  18. Good call by them. Play it when they are healthier, maybe with a reinforcement or 2, and playing better ball.
  19. I liked it better when potential targets played and there was a hug watch rather than just being out of the line up.
  20. Yes. After what we have seen this season, it wouldn't surprise me if we saw Burger playing everywhere but SS, C, and CF (don't give TLR any ideas)
