And it's a double-edged sword...on one hand, you'll take the losses because of the pick. On the other hand, if the Sox just mail it in like last year, what does that say about the leadership (or lack of leadership) of this team?

Good god. I haven't even turned it on, and it's 3-0 already? WTF.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 10:24 PM) Felix Hernandez getting rocked tonight, 4 Hr and 5er given up so far in 4 innings ... anyone think there's a possibility Sale can take the Cy Young away from Felix? Probably not, and Kluber is probably ahead of Sale. Going to be tough to win a Cy with 27 starts unless the numbers are way ahead of the other pitchers.

QUOTE (peavy44 @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 10:02 PM) I dont want 90 losses. If they keep playing like they have the last 24 games (6-18), we're not going to have a choice.

Agreed on the losing thing. I want Sale and Rodon to win, but 90 losses should get the Sox a top 8 pick.

28 games for Abreu to make a Triple Crown run. Could you imagine?

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 09:39 PM) He ain't ready yet. 87 wRC+ at AAA. He played injured all year. I'm not saying he's a lock to be great right away, but he was on the fast track, and they'll have room for him.

Wilkins hit 30.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 10:55 AM) To be fair, the scout bought Montero and ice cream sandwich and he was taunting him the entire time. That's simply unacceptable behavior from a scout. It's really funny though.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 10:19 AM) Any time I think Hawk is terrible, all I need to do is surf around my MLB audio subscription. That just makes me want to stab my ears out. Honestly, we are really, really luck with the TV and radio crews that we have in all sports. Chicago has some incredible talent broadcasting their local teams. It is a great time to be consuming Chicago sports in terms of the crews giving us the games. Again, your opinion. I don't doubt when listening to other crews, some of them are dull or stupid. But once a new PBP guy comes in, chances are we'll get used to it, because the focus is the White Sox. My hope is when Hawk retires, the replacement will be a professional broadcaster on par with John Rooney or Wayne Hagin, with a former player as a color guy. And believe me, there will be sadness once Hawk leaves. That's about 90% of my Sox viewing life, but he's really bad now---again, my opinion.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 10:02 AM) That's true since hawk is actually entertaining I meant as far as cutting back his schedule. And Hawk was entertaining. Now he's unbearable. I really can't believe how many people who seemingly have listened to him for 20+ years (30 years for me), think he's still fun to listen to, or think he's on his game. That's your opinion, and that's fine. But I think he's terrible now.

http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/08/28/lev...-on-road-games/ Just retire while you have a couple marbles left. You ain't Scully.

Watch him throw a wild pitch.

It's too bad Avi didn't get a full year of at-bats.

Look at Beckham gettin' a big hit...good for him I guess.

Alex Gordon with a game-tying homer. They got some mojo.

Francona has to lead the majors in managerial air time.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 28, 2014 -> 09:23 PM) So why did they take Danks out? 101

Adams pitching for AZL. Maybe he'll get a playoff start for Great Falls.

Hawkins not playing again. Makes me wonder if his season is over.

9 more outs for the bullpen, maybe.

Looks like the rain approaching is dying out, which is nice.

Not watching...has Hawk started looking at his weather app yet?
