Middleton reaching 96-98 mph...

White Sox getting mowed down. Can just imagine Gordon with his "that wasn't a competitive big league at bat" schtick.

Which reliever here gets the call? Arguably would have been Kelly...

At least game pace has picked up. Feels like the last game of year when everyone wants to get to their plane in time.

Bell and Zunino will help CLE. They needed to add one more veteran starter like a Wacha but apparently couldn't afford it with soany extensions to younger position players. Hindsight.

Miranda looked like a young Edgar Martinez last year... Lynn now at 87 pitches.

Solano is the new Arraez.

66 pitches over 5 for Lopez...

At least Burger has relative inactivity excuse...

I think by now everyone recognizes he's not a CFer... which means he needs to hit 25+ homers without striking out 200+ times.

Top 7 in line up all at .273 or above the black hole sucking everything into the vortex at the bottom.

By the time Sosa gets to play regularly his hot streak mentality from Charlotte will have gone poof...

Surprised Rick Hahn hasn't put out a hit on him from feeling so affronted... why can't he just need more positive?

Who was it that was arguing that Lynn wasn't currently yet another bad contract to have on the books?

Bullpen is going to be completely destroyed by late May. That's where Cueto covered a lot of innings that will show up now on the wrong end of the bullpen.

Steak and potatoes diet doesn't work well in your mid 30's.

You can't throw 88.2 mph cutters to Buxton. That just speeds up his bat. Lynn managed to push his ERA up above 10.13.

Well, that was FAST. The dreaded give back the lead in a matter of seconds game.

Alex Call still out OPSing Benintendi...lol.

Sweet Lou Collier for Triton Btw, Rays already up 3-0 on the Red Sox, Boston would be six back (already) with a loss.

They probably should have projected that when they drafted him... look at his Missouri State days and still looks quite similar. Has actually lost weight since then. Remember they have been running that 2B conversion up the flag pole for at least two years.

Polanco Kirillof Kepler Gallo Correa/Buxton both banged up recently and day to day...

Broadway?

The White Sox would have 5-6 more World Series titles, a newer, actually “cool” downtown-facing stadium and I would have instead ended up starring with Aubrey Plaza in Safety Not Guaranteed 2.

What does emptying out the farm system even mean? With TA7 on the way out... Montgomery simply HAS to stick around and be something close to a star. Trading someone like Colson for fool's gold will only make the next inevitable rebuild last longer by a year old two. Fwiw, the Royals only had a four year window but they almost won two World Series titles before succumbing to injuries and a lack of quality pitching depth. They shouldn't have paid Alex Gordon, Hosmer/Moustakas/Cain all left and Yordano Ventura died tragically. That was all she wrote.
