Quintana starts. Let's talk about it.

Hawkins back in the lineup.

Bell already said Anderson was their "priority player" for the AFL. To me, that means he'll get the majority of the starts at SS while they are there.

Rodon interview. Haven't listened to it yet. http://thegamechicago.com/2014/08/25/white.../#axzz3BQZLWupb

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 25, 2014 -> 01:18 PM) Normally, when you are sent down you can't come back up for at least 10 days, but is there an exception to that rule with the Sept. 1 roster expansion? Otherwise he can't come back up until Sept. 5. Good question, but I think he'll be able to come up next week. The call ups seem to be obvious-- Rodon, Surkamp, Rienzo, Phegley, Semien, Danks. Sierra will come off the DL. I guess the only questions are Wilkins, Mitchell, and Davidson. To me, Davidson doesn't really deserve it, and they can give those ABs to Sanchez and Semien.

Jordan just got optioned to Charlotte.

When Sale or Rodon are on the mound, I'll hope for a win. But 90 losses should net the Sox a nice pick. 13-19 would be fine with me, although what we root for doesn't make a difference. They'll show up and try to win a game, and whatever the final record is, is.

Rodon and Eaton postgame.

Davidson tater #20

Didn't see the Cubs sweeping the Orioles after how good they looked, but they did. 30 interleague games left this season. 24 in AL parks. AL- 145 NL- 125

Too bad they probably can't bring him up for the doubleheader next Saturday.

2nd- walk, K, double. 2nd and 3rd, one out. ground out, run scored. another ground out to end the 2nd. 39 pitches, 21 strikes.

Semien homer.

Rodon-1st Pop out to 2B, strikeout looking, walk, strikeout 18 pitches

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) So might a professional manager. Yes, that goes without saying. Although we're stuck for at least two more years.

Greg Maddux on the mound. Christ.

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 03:41 PM) Can he pitch and play left field at the same time? Yes. You haven't seen it yet? It's something.

This team needs to get a little tougher. I think Rodon will help that cause.

Damn 5 Hour Energy

Charlotte passing 615,000 in attendance tonight.

Alvarez 3-4. He may just be one of those athletes that's good at everything.

Tell us another story, grandpa.

Nice!

Warm the plane up.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 02:12 PM) What makes you so sure he is gone? Because there are teams that are so desperate for power, they'll think they can fix him. And the Sox will be happy to move on.
