I would like to know Hawk's thoughts on Gabrielle Union

The last 20 innings of baseball have to be incredibly frustrating as a Cubs fan.

This Frazier sideshow is getting comical

Frazier just trying to f*** with Hammel.

Relatively sure that's the first leadoff single of Todd's career.

One inning down.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 07:21 PM) Sad all Sox have is this guy to start. Well, I mean he's literally below Sale, Quintana, Rodon, Shields, Gonzalez and Turner on the starting pitching depth chart. Your seventh starter typically won't be real strong.

Jose got up 3-0 then got worked. Looking for six strong innings from Ranaudo, as I am a greedy person.

So that's a thing.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:07 PM) The trade deadline tease is upon us. It's entertaining at least.

ALSO THE CROSSTOWN CUP STAYS ON THE SOUTH SIDE WOOOOOOOOOOOO 83 JERSEYS FOREVER

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:04 PM) Sure, and how he did that was by not pitching like he is now. No one is saying he's Sale. But he's also not the pitcher that he first showed when he came here. Probably not the pitcher from the last couple of games, either, but he's also our third starter.

That knuckle curve really is beautiful when its on.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:01 PM) His mechanics were a disaster when he got here. He has cleaned that hot mess up. I'm not saying it's not devil worship. Have you seen the devil emoticon on the iPhone? It's a red James Shields face with the beard.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) Come on dude. He's had 24 strikeouts and 16 walks in 47 innings, along with a 35% groundball rate, 33% hard hit rate and 8% soft hit rate. He's been extremely lucky. He's also a dude that has a track record of not being godawful. QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) Drob going to pitch angry tonight I like David, the thing with him is apparently he just can't be used a ton. He really apparently has no day after day stamina. Also, he shags fly balls left handed, which is odd.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:57 PM) Robin is brain dead. Robertson is going to close as long as he's here.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:53 PM) If we can consistently get this kind of pitching from Shields and Gonzo, while Sale and Quintana can continue to do their thing, this team has a legitimate shot at making a comeback. As long as none of them ever allow runs, yes.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:49 PM) Ok - who said that? I have to start using it. Me, as far as I know. ha

Nice job by Nate. We still go to Robo in the 9th.

I almost don't know if I'd pull him here, but I see why you do. That's one of the best starts we have seen all year.

Whenever Shields gets pulled (hope its after one more out) he deserves a standing O. While not a high K performance, this is one of the better "grab your nuts and go do it" performances of the year.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:41 PM) Mostly luck ....but you can't rule out devil worship, which seems as likely an explanation as any.

Shields makes Bryant his b****

As soon as James runs into any trouble, go to Duke or Jones.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 08:37 PM) Can any of you explain what has enabled Shields to so dramatically turn things around? He has been terrific, after that brief awful stretch. I believe he has embraced some sort of devil worship.
