QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 08:00 PM) This offense...yikes 2013, they scored under 600 runs. I could see that again.

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 06:02 PM) Man if Holland and Shields can keep this going I will be very excited for this coming trade deadline. We'll see, but I kinda like having professionals like Gonzalez, Shields, and Holland around to keep the rest of the team sane. If they replace those guys too soon, and then have injuries, it would be a bad thing for the development of some guys. And it's not like those guys are going to bring back a lot anyway.

Tim Anderson is going to be Alexei with better speed. He'll get better, and then he'll plateau at a level that's fine. I don't think anyone thinks he's a superstar in the works.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 10:38 AM) Why such an early game? Usually kids days. Schools take them. I wonder if there is a statistical correlation to early starts and pitching domination.

QUOTE (juddling @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 01:45 AM) I know it's pushing the 'Celebrity" line but she David Letterman's mother Dorothy died at 95. She did appear on his show from time to time back in the day Unbelievable. Today is Letterman's 70th birthday, and I was thinking the other day that it's cool his mom is still alive. What timing to read this news.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 08:46 PM) Hate to be the debbie downer here, but I want to see Moncada cut down on his K rate. Obviously it's a very small sample, but striking out 30% of the time in AAA is a huge red flag. I'd ideally like to see him in the 20% to 25% range before calling him up. I would hope they just keep him down there for at least two months, no matter what. Let him dominate for a while. There will be a lot of people that want him to face Sale at the end of May though.

Moncada with a walk, stolen base. And a throwing error.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2017 -> 07:07 PM) Glasnow absolutely sucked tonight Hard pass on that guy. I'm thinking it's Astros or Yankees if they get the right offer.

1-2-3 first inning for Pelfrey. Enjoy it. Moncada k looking

Fring's Back

Charlotte 4-0; the other three 1-11. Ha.

Wow. Back to 18 tee box. Sergio earned it, but Rose is going to be thinking about a couple putts forever.

Rose and Garcia all tied up with 3 left...here we go...

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 9, 2017 -> 04:38 PM) Oooooor.... Can't believe I saw a hole in one live. Kooch! Overall, a bit of a disappointing Sunday at the Masters so far.

And now 44 of 67 on the road. Good luck, Renteria.

Mauer robs Abreu. Oh the irony.

Anderson will be fine. Good time for a rally.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2017 -> 03:04 PM) Vintage Q game Nice bounce back. Even though his WBC was quick, I was getting a little worried about a curse that seems to be going around.

Sergio may actually win a major.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2017 -> 02:44 PM) Bennetti is a very enjoyable listen. 40 year career ahead for him I'd think. He and Stoney are a delight in a miserable offensive show. Benetti. One n, two t's. Now you know.

Danish 5 innings, 1 run. 101 pitches.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 9, 2017 -> 01:58 PM) Not gonna be long til he's in AA. Interesting how Collins is at the same level as Hawkins the year after their drafts. Comical really. Hopefully he can stick at catcher. I'm sure if he were a 1B, he'd be at Birmingham now.

Wearing the 83s today. Whatever works for Quintana.

Today is going to be awesome. Hopefully 5+ guys can win when they get to Amen Corner.

I'm glad Burdi had a few bad outings in Arizona. Absolutely no rush. He hit his first batter, btw.
