Matt Cooper have a shot at big league time this year?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 04:51 PM) Hector Santiago is so good Nice little trade last year that was out of nowhere.

The Sox are going to have weeks where the pitching sucks and they can't score more than 2-3 runs a game. Tough years ahead, but that's part of the plan.

Keep Willy, send May down?

Buxton being a bust would just be sad.

Burdi looks the part, but I don't want to see him in Chicago this year.

New rule: Two outs, and a ground rule double in the gaps, a runner on first base is awarded home.

Hopefully Jacob May gets his first knock today. Go to New York feeling ok.

Patience is key, but I kinda want good players to be good. Like Kyle Tucker.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 01:27 PM) Must be nice to want the Sox to lose. I want a W and want the Blackhawks to rebound. It's not about wanting a win or a loss. It's about a meaningless game played by guys we'll barely remember in five years. Sure, go Sox!

Out of all of the meaningless games the Sox play this season, this could be way up there. Now watch the Sox win big, and Shields throw a shutout.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 15, 2017 -> 05:05 PM) Chris Sale might go winless and still win the Cy Young, haha. 1.27 era and 12 k's but headed for a no decision, potentially. Sawx need to score this inning. But really, I wonder if baseball will ever just discontinue Wins, Losses, and Saves. They are completely meaningless, but are so hard to ignore.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 15, 2017 -> 02:44 PM) I'm not quite sure what point you're trying to make, as thus far, Q's value has gone nowhere but down to start the season and it appears as if Hahn made the wrong decision to not trade him in the offseason. We get it, the worse Q pitches, the lower the value and the less the Sox get back as that trends. Pretty obvious stuff. BTW, there is a Topps Now of the 3 Garcias.

Has Q ever bounced a pitch that short before? Good god. I hope he's ok.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 15, 2017 -> 02:17 PM) Frazier has just become a horrible hitter. He's cost himself an insane amount of money This past offseason should scare him. He's probably looking at one year deals the rest of his career.

What's done is done. Or this case, not done. Just have to hope Q bounces back. Oh look, Hawk ranking hospitals now.

Sanchez batting 6th. Time to clean the garage. Raining there now, but in a few hours they should be good to go. Maybe a delay during the game, but they'll play.

I wonder if Kopech could be a better pitcher (better control) throwing an easy 96-97, instead of maxing out every time. If anyone is watching him, is he not locating on fastballs or off speed stuff, or just everything?

Kopech time. How about 6 inn, 1 run, 1 walk, 10 k?

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 06:49 PM) I see by the radar it is raining in Minneapolis...do you know if they have determined a start time yet? Is it officially delayed? Tarp is on the field and they'll be in a delay. No other info. Eyeballing the radar, I don't think it's going to be a long delay.

Game not starting on time.

Topps needs to make a card to document this truly historical event.

I think they'll get the games in. May just have some rain delays. Good luck to Dylan Covey tonight.
