QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ May 27, 2016 -> 01:50 PM) Its gotta be a White Sox thing. Beckham and Flowers are both hitting really well in Atlanta, albeit in bench roles. Neither even have 90 PA yet. However, the thing that surprises me the most is the surging walk rate from both of them. Beckham is at 11.5% (8.0 and 4.6 in previous 2 years), and Flowers is at 10.1% (5.7 and 5.8 the previous 2 years). They are both striking out slightly less.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 27, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) That doesn't sound familiar either. Tinder, Bumble, OkCupid, Hot or Not, Plenty of Fish, Coffee Meets Bagel, those are ones I can think of right now.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 26, 2016 -> 02:22 AM) Damn. The way u made her sound she was not that appealing. You must like her. I really would not want to take a woman to a Cubs game. I'd insist on the Sox part of it. If she doesn't know any players in baseball cept Cubs like you said, she's not THAT big of a fan. I'd rather take her to a library than a Cubs game. So are you into this girl or not? She isn't as 10 by any means, but I think I also overreacted a bit because I was mislead by her pictures. I'll admit that I find my ex a lot cuter, but I feel like I could get along with this girl better and is far more relationship material, probably mostly due to being age appropriate. We agreed that any Cubs games we go to, she is buying. And Sox games we go to, I am buying. She loses out on that deal financially, lol, but that's her damn fault! And yes, I am in to her. I'll come around on the attraction side of things, but so far I really enjoy our constant texting and I love that she loves to cook and is great at it. She's cooking some cheddar-stuffed burgers for us this weekend.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ May 26, 2016 -> 05:29 PM) As anyone had luck on the apps on the phone finding someone? I use the typical gay apps like grinder and it seems its made for hookups. Wanted to ask the straight world has had any success? Define "luck"? I've met up with 4 girls now from online (3 Tinder, 1 OkCupid), and they all worked out well. Dated one of them, am currently talking to another one, are "friends with benefits" with another one, and the only one I haven't seen more than one time was because I met up with her while I was in Arizona for the week.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 25, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) Ding ding ding. Gotcha. Although for a lot of people it's probably not that simple.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 25, 2016 -> 10:52 PM) What difficulty do you guys play on? Veteran for both. I need to bump my pitching up a level though.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2016 -> 03:46 PM) He is something special. Easily best young player I've seen this year. Define "young", or do you mean "rookie"?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 25, 2016 -> 10:56 AM) I got 20 Ks with Sale on a CG 120 pitches lol. Also, pretty cool that they have WAR now for each player in the players statistics section. Pretty sure they didn't have that last year, so I like that new feature. They did not, although it's neither fWAR or bWAR, it's their own calculation, and I don't like how it's measured to 2 decimal places. It's like batting average being seen as .3004 instead of .300.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 25, 2016 -> 03:42 PM) Let me guess. No second date with this one. Sounds like she would never marry a guy going into Journalism if she asked you why you'd do a low paying career; she is already overweight; she goes to Vegas all the time (probably lot of one night stands at the clubs); she sounds way too opinionated. No second date right? She is staying over for the whole weekend, this upcoming weekend. She wanted to buy us tickets for the Cubs/Phillies game Saturday, but decided against it once I told her I had a party to go to afterwards (She's apparently coming to that now as well).

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 25, 2016 -> 06:45 AM) Relevant to previous conversation, but long distance relationships take their toll. Smart phones help immensely, but I just got in I've such relationship and the critical things we've hit on include... 1) Making sure we talk almost every day on the phone 2) Have a date for it to end, so once I'm done with school. 3) Plan out the visits. We just scheduled a visit every month for the next year last night. 4) Intent. She and I agreed you don't get in these relationships without the endgame being marriage. Her sister got mad and said we're moving too fast, but we've been good friends for quite some time it helps. What does that mean? You picked a "break-up" date?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 24, 2016 -> 11:05 AM) Threw a perfect game with Jose Quintana yesterday lol I casually struck out 16 batters with Sale in 8 IP and only 108 pitches or so. Didn't even know until they showed the Player of the Game card and I saw it. Haha, would have tried harder for 20!

Zangari 0 for 4 with 3 K.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 23, 2016 -> 02:18 PM) so I was reading the below thread and came across this amazing post: Jun 8, 2010 -> 12:08 AM QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:05 PM) * I think it's Chris Sale if he's still there. I would like it too. sin city sox fan Jun 8, 2010 -> 12:08 AM And if that happens, he's winning the 2016 Cy Young Award in a White Sox uniform....YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/lofiversion/...t77853-150.html Ha! Apparently I really wanted Grandal. I think that was the first year I really started following the draft. Now I love this s***.

Delmaniac's HR http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?con...83&sid=milb

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 23, 2016 -> 11:35 AM) I wouldn't really call #3 overall "falling." Ehh. I think I would when you consider he was the slam dunk #1 pick for so long and even leading up the draft I feel like we were all getting used to the idea of Tyler Kolek or Aaron Nola.

Ok.......I guess I don't get a reason then? ChiliIrishHammock24 please.

10 years ago today I was at the Sox/Cubs game with the AJ/Barrett fight. Tonight, I will be back again for my 4th game this year. Might be my 3rd time seeing Quintana already.

If he gets his average up around .330s sometime in June. I'll be ready. Rollins is getting harder and harder to watch. At this point give Saladino a good chunk of time at SS.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 19, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) It was yesterday, right? Josh Nelson of SSS retweeted a tweet about it today, but it was apparently originally tweeted yesterday. I apologize to all of those who I may have hurt or offended. Thoughts and prayers.

Zangari hit a HR and he didn't even strike out! Yay! Also walked His 7th HR, a career high for him. He hit 6 last year in 212 AB. He now has 7 in 157 AB. He also has 14 BB now. He had 11 last year.

Lux hit 2 HR today, including a grand slam.

QUOTE (Dunt @ May 18, 2016 -> 10:16 PM) Cannot believe that massive division lead is just going to evaporate in a weeks time 6 to 2.5 if Cleveland holds on, right?

This team is terrible with RISP right now. We're getting baserunners, but they aren't scoring.

Zangari..... 0 for 4....3 Ks..... K% over 42% now....yikes.

2/4 for Engel, BB, SB. Hitting .412 in his 34 AB since being sent down.
