QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 11:42 PM) Semien should be getting everyday PAs down in AAA when Gordon comes back. That's true. I was going to say let Semien play 3B against all lefties and then play 2B and SS against righties when needed, but full time in AAA is probably a better plan. I'm just so over Beckham that I feel its a downgrade to go from Sem to Becks.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 05:32 PM) I think Leury put himself ahead of Semien for the role of super sub when Gordon returns Oh god no, give me Semien every time. His 0-10 so far does not worry me, he is far more talented.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 09:40 PM) We do know Adam Dunn hit a homer today, right? And he hit 34 last year, that still won't stop managers from challenging him when you are about 7x more likely that he will strike out.

If we are really going to roll with Gillaspie #3, then we need Avi batting after Abreu. Otherwise, teams will walk Abreu to get to Dunn all day long.

Easy Hawk, I'm not sure Garcia would have scored there, he wasn't even to 3B when the ball hit the ump.

Passed ball!! Here we go Eaton, ground ball up the middle for the walk off!!

Well the good news about this upcoming Eaton ground ball is that he would be hard to double up.

Luery found a nut!

Oooh, Marcus.

My god this game is just crawling along. I have work at 5, and I never thought I would be pressed for time getting ready for work. Probably going to spend the 9th inning in the shower. 3 hours and still 10 outs left. Yeesh.

What a nice play by Semien, although he almost let it eat him up.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:55 PM) 10.6K announced attendance. How many of those ended up in the ballpark? Maybe half.

Attendance is 10K. Yikes.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:52 PM) we still have two more chances I'm hoping Semien will draw the walk and Abreu will go yard. Hell, maybe even Adam Dunn can launch one with someone on.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:50 PM) Boy I wish the White Sox had someone on the bench that could hit a little better than Flowers as that would be a nice spot for it. Flowers swing is very loooooooong Paging Paul Konerko?

OMG, what a f***ing joke, that ball was ticketed for CF. f***ing cocksucking f***.

Come Eaton, make up for that awful play right here and do your patented ground ball up the middle single.

Hoping for a Flowers strikeout here, since the most likely outcome is a DP.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:37 PM) That's the part that makes absolutely no sense to me. You can't just give him 2B because Eaton dropped the ball. That's like assuming Plouffe would have been at 2B. But he clearly wasn't. He was running back towards first when Eaton "dropped" the ball. That's what I was saying earlier, the only outcome of that review should have been figuring out which runner gets to stand at 1B with 1 out.

By the way, look at the way Flowers was set up over the plate. Paging TaylorSt, paging Taylor, I'd like to know why the umpire didn't rule the runner safe.

Can't believe Flowers hung on to that ball. Would have bet my life he'd drop it.

Basically we got penalized because the umpire made a bad call. Because if he ruled it a drop from the get go, Eaton would have had him at 2B anyway.

f***ing Luery didn't even step on 2B. What a twat.

They are giving him 2B? Ah jesus.
