Cmon Carlos. 6 good innings.

Hopefully the players remaining know this is part of the process, and their job is to be professional and play hard, otherwise somebody else is going to take their position.

I have my hands above my head, clapping.

2-17 the last 19. If they go better than 5-15 the next 20, I'd be surprised. They're going to lose around 105.

Phils win

And now they play three innings in which they have no chance.

Phillies are going to win.

Jeff Gelalich...and you are?

Go Holland?

Without a clear cut #1, the thought of the Sox having the pick is a scary proposition. But I hope they get it.

It comes down to this... Will the White Sox play five games worse than the Phillies the final 63 games? I'm thinking the answer is "probably".

Sox are 2-15 the last 17, and 15 of the next 18 games are against teams that currently hold a playoff spot. Could be looking at a historically bad 35 game stretch.

Yes, and yes. If the Sox 40-man is at 37 the morning of the Rule 5, they can take as many as three.

Weekend: 1. Phillies -29 vs Braves 2. Giants -23 at Dodgers 3. White Sox -21 vs Indians 4. Reds -20 at Marlins

AL Central 21-41 in interleague play.

20-44 seems very possible. 59-103. If it's the first pick, great. 2nd pick, also good. They're getting a top 3 pick.

Recall means he was on the 40 man. Purchase the contract means he wasn't. But yeah, I get it.

Interleague after 100 games: AL 60 NL 40 Interleague after 203 games AL 103 NL 100 NL has dominated in July.

20 below .500. Phillies and Giants won tonight.

Playing for the Cup tomorrow night. Exciting stuff.

Tim needs to play because that's what he does. In Chicago. Until October 1st.

And if anyone tried to nail down the starting five three years from now, chances are nobody would get it right. Baseball happens.

Wow, I forgot about Hansen. Damn the Sox have some arms!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2017 -> 08:55 PM) Gonna be hard to win 18 with a bullpen this bad when your starters don't log innings So worse than .300 ball for two months? Mercy.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 26, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) Phillies donging all over the Astros. We're getting that first pick. If they move Gonzalez and Melky, I could see the Sox playing the last 60 games at 18-42.
