Check out Billy Hamilton's catch tonight too.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 08:16 PM) whose spot is Lopez taking? Pelfrey

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 08:10 PM) I don't care that he is tank commander, I don't want to see Holland anymore, he is done I literally can't watch him. Gameday is bad enough. Meanwhile, the Phillies have a nice lead tonight.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 06:44 PM) Jimenez is a monster I guess it doesn't really matter since the season will be over soon, but I can't wait to see him mashing in AA.

Until the Giants go back to two, let's assume the Sox stay there or go to #1. There are 55 days left in the season, and the Magic Number is 55. Sox losses and Phillies wins that add up to 55 give the Sox the #1 pick (assuming both play 162).

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 7, 2017 -> 10:03 PM) I underestimated how bad the Giants suddenly are, they even signed Panda. The #1 pick is definitely not locked in yet. The Sox won't win more than 60 games. After they lose 7 out of the next 8, they'll be 4-5 games worse than the Giants.

Mike Trout 1000th hit on his 26th birthday.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Aug 6, 2017 -> 06:24 PM) Anyone hoping the Sox do this again next year is out of their minds. Agreed. I hope a very young team wins as many games as possible next year. This year, I'm happy with the losses.

The Sox finish the week with the 2nd pick position, but you probably knew that. 53 games left.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 5, 2017 -> 08:08 PM) Addicted to LivePD Oh yeah, for sure.

Pretty much comes down to the Sox having to be three games worse than the Phillies the last 54 games for the first pick. Otherwise, it'll be 2. Either is fine by me- but we've gone this far....let's get 1. 16-38 should do the trick.

The Sox have played the last 81 games at 27-54.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 1, 2017 -> 07:10 AM) If he doesn't go on the 7-day concussion DL, then what's the point of having it? That seems probable. I wonder how he's going to feel this morning. Probably not too hot.

Abbott came out of the game after a play at the plate.

Ball is juiced, in addition to Davidson's freak strength.

Abreu would be a good DH for a contending team next year.

Being that athletic can be a curse in baseball.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2017 -> 08:22 PM) Thing that sucks is his struggles out of the gate will lower the rebuild excitement for the casual Sox fan. Yeah, I think he'll come around- because he has to. It's just unfortunate he's off to this bad of a start.

Kopech five shutout innings so far.

Moncada .105. Dude.

The Sox would have to eat 12 mil for Shields to go away after this season. Worth it.

Today is July 31, 2017

Shields is good for the tank, but I hope they eat his salary for next year. Let the kids pitch next year.

Gio three outs away

Gio Gonzalez no hitter through 7.
