Oh god, here comes the gas can.......I'm so sick of Thornton. This is his specialty where he blows the game, but his line for the night doesn't look that bad. I have 0 faith in him right now, please prove me wrong.

Maybe the gameplan tonight was for Sale to tune it down a notch on his fastball considering how GREAT of a fastball hitting team the Rangers are? Think about it. What kinda pitchers kill the sox? Soft tossing lefties.
Thats my conspiracy theory.
I considered that, but I figured Sale would be able to pump it up to 93-94 when he really needed it, not 91.

That strike zone seems rather large for Yu...
Yeah, Sale was getting squeezed the first couple batters, then couldn't finish off Beltre, then he just fell apart.
Walker is 2/2 so far with a 2B, but was picked off, his first technical CS since he has been in High-A. Now batting .361 in W-S in his brief 10 games.
Hawkins is 1/2 so far with a 2B, RBI, SB.

I want King Felix just as bad as the next White Sox fan, but screw that. I'm keeping Viciedo. Now throw Beckham in there instead of Viciedo and you may have a deal.
Lol, Beckham is NOT a good replacement for Viciedo. They are on opposite ends of the trade value spectrum.
