  1. https://www.milb.com/player/joe-perez-669309 3B, 2nd round pick of the Astros (pick #53 back in 2018 out of high school in FL), turning 26 this year...made it up for ONE major league at-bat so far in his career
  2. Martin Perez (1-0, 1.59 ERA) going tmrw night against TBA...50/50 Red Sox prospect Hunter Dobbins will be recalled from Worcester. SAT 3:10 Rematch of Shane Smith vs. Garrett Crochet SUN 12:35 Tanner Houck (gave up 12 runs in his last start) against Sean Burke MON 10:10 AM Walker Buehler against Jonathan Cannon (Lucas Giolito Nightmare Patriots' Day Massacre Game) SOX @ Twins (TUES through THURS) SOX @ A's/Sacramento (FRI through SUN)
  3. Anything can happen in a playoff, as Rose has already learned the hard way at Augusta. Just one loose approach shot and you're dead. It's not like he even played the 18th poorly, McIlroy just hit an incredible shot with all the pressure on the world on him. Rose was basically playing with "house money" having made up a 7 shot lead. Roughly 75% of the time, you'd expect that would be enough for Rose to win with where things stood approaching the last two holes, Rose in the clubhouse and Rory tied with him.
  4. Knights trying to outdo the White Sox parent club...have now lost 8 consecutive games.
  5. You're just providing MORE ammunition for JR never to sign ANY player for over $75 million, lol... Although how the Machado deal has worked out for SD isn't exactly one of them right now. Not yet at least.
  6. https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/suns-owner-mat-ishbia-expects-stephen-a-smith-to-apologize-for-calling-him-one-of-the-worst-owners-in-nba-history-015433021.html Engaging with Stephen A. Smith is kind of pointless for a billionaire (isn't a "deca" billionaire, over $10 billion?) to get riled up over something like this. Obviously he didn't enjoy being painted with the same brush as a Donald Sterling or Sarver, the previous Suns' owner who went through some ugly sexual harassment/discrimination issues before basically being forced out. If anything, it should provide more incentive to get out of his current quagmire they're experiencing...as Durant will be leaving and they'll have to reboot the entire franchise. But Smith’s comments comparing him to the worst of the worst owners didn’t sit right with Ishbia. As for the Sterling comparison, Ishbia doesn't think that will stand for much longer.
  7. With the worst record in Major League Baseball, the Colorado Rockies are making a change that they hope can provide a jolt to a lifeless offense. Hitting coach Hensley "Bam Bam" Meulens was fired on Thursday and was replaced by former Rockies manager Clint Hurdle, who had been a special assistant to the general manager. At 3-15, Colorado has the fourth-worst team batting average in the National League (.220) and third-worst team OPS (.629). The Rockies have the second-most strikeouts in MLB at 195, are tied for the second-fewest home runs with 12, and rank last in the majors with 52 runs scored. Meulens was in his third year as Rockies hitting coach, hired before the 2023 season. Last season, the Rockies' .242 team batting average and .704 OPS were the worst in franchise history. https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/article/mlb-worst-rockies-fire-hitting-coach-hensley-meulens-name-former-manager-clint-hurdle-interim-replacement-001506534.html Rockies fire their hitting coach after 3-15 start
  8. And the weird thing here is he got off to a REALLY strong start to the season in his first week or so of games. It's a lot different from what Colson has been going through, which was struggling from Game 1.
  9. He was the only hitter for the Sox against the A's, basically. 6 base hits. But his defense will ALWAYS be a liability wherever he plays, unless he just concentrates on one singular position and practices it relentlessly like Alex Gordon in LF for the Royals when he shifted from 3B. It also requires coaching, like a Ron Washington or Rusty Kuntz who will push Sosa beyond what he think he's capable. If he's only a 675-700 hitter, that's good enough for a bad/horrific White Sox team, but his defense will knock his fWAR down into the 0.5-1.5 range in all probability.
  10. Balta made this exact same argument repeatedly about Hahn...especially after they bypassed his decision to hire AJ Hinch and went with TLR instead. Ofc, making $500-750,000 or whatever his salary with the White Sox is pretty significant, family-future altering money if he can collect it for another 2-3-4 seasons. He might not get another GM job in his lifetime with 2 of the 5 worst teams of all-time (125 years) of MLB history on his resume, regardless of the circumstances he inherited from Hahn and JR (budget-wise).
  11. Now Teel is really in a funk. 2/2 in k's. .190 Elko, meanwhile, couldn't be any hotter. Nashville kind enough to score just one run every inning so far. 4-0
  12. He might legitimately be the only one (on the position player side)...if we don't mess him up somehow along the way. Teel or Colson continue to be the best "second" choices for that.
  13. You can always watch Jankowski, Drury and Dalbec at Charlotte. And "maybe" Clevinger, or has he officially broken all ties with the Sox and moved on?
  14. Agree 100% with those sentiments...bring on more national embarrassment. Basically, make WestEddy capitulate... "Mired in mediocrity" would/could easily be the apex of this rebuild if there's insufficient FA spending on the position player side. But at least we get to watch Jac Caglionone terrorize the AL Central for 7 seasons, lol.
  15. Boston and Oakland on the road will tear right through this team next week...imo that Sunday loss against Crochet stopped them right in their tracks, quickly bringing team back to reality.
  16. Another CMontgomery K this time called strike and two changeups got him...going all outside on him Iriarte 7.59 era top of Kanny lineup carrying the load for system Batters - KAN AB R H RBI BB K AVG OPS Mogollon2B 3 1 1 0 0 1 .257 .955 BonemerSS 1 1 1 1 0 0 .333 .968 Montgomery, BRF 1 1 0 0 1 0 .343 1.019 Miller-Green1B 2 0 1 0 0 0 .306 .986
  17. Sounding more and more like an Ivy League version of Grifol...ofc Ozzie always said "it's the players, stupid" or similar words to that effect.
  18. Not sure there's one really legit prospect here...and Zavala's swing changes and toe tap? And the Knights have somehow lost 7 consecutive games... Batters - WS AB R H RBI BB K AVG OPS Antonacci3B 1 1 1 0 0 0 .273 .832 GalanieDH 1 1 1 2 0 0 .348 1.070 ConnorLF 0 0 0 0 1 0 .289 .808 Makarewicz1B 0 0 0 0 0 0 .200 .582 Hernandez, ASS 0 0 0 0 0 0 .167 .461 Perez, J2B 0 0 0 0 0 0 .231 .811 McConnellRF 0 0 0 0 0 0 .267 .850 PinedaC 0 0 0 0 0 0 .000 .000 ZavalaCF 0 0 0 0 0 0 .111 .417
  19. Here we thought Colorado at 3-15 and -51 rs/ra was trying to "outsuck" the Sox even...
  20. https://www.mlb.com/news/potential-impact-callups-for-each-team-2025 Luke Keaschall and Tim Elko write-ups
  21. know you're getting old...Jack Wilson's son is SS Jacob Amaya error ruled a hit for Rooker two triples for Schuemann Xb hit parade four singles eight for xbs
  22. First time Benintendi's arm held someone at third.
  23. Palacios plays ball into a triple or error.
  24. Amaya Taylor their only rhh but used. Venable out thought himself.
