This game is just moving along....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Tigers 61-47 at the 2/3 point. +50 in run diff and their bullpen has a 4.55 ERA. With Price now, that bullpen isn't going to be used a ton. They should win 95.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:59 PM) JJ Stankevitz ‏@JJStankevitz 2m Gordon Beckham was hitting .298 on June 10. Since: .161/.209/.293 (.503 OPS) in 192 PAs. 0-2 today. #WhiteSox I'm just counting the weeks down on him and Dunn, and a couple other guys. We're at 8.

QUOTE (Timmy U @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:56 PM) Guy who hit him was former Sox farmhand Kanekoa Texeira, part of Swisher trade to Yankees. Figures. The curse of those Swisher trades continues. Thought the same thing when I saw who the pitcher was.

Stone isn't going to Seattle next weekend, so I guess Wimpy will be back with grandpa.

I miss Paciorek

The beat reporters are calling it the "left elbow area".

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 07:56 AM) Because he's had 4 days of rest and they're trying to get some sort of regular schedule established? Yeah, he'll probably pitch an inning every 3-4 days the rest of the minor league season. Actually, just looked it up--he is pitching today.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20140803 Beck, Bassitt, and Danish starting today. Good bet Rodon gets in there today.

Hopefully someday Adams is one of those guys picked in the 30-50 range that teams just kick themselves for not taking.

Hahn on the Score...said Rodon's changeup has been impressive since he didn't use it much this year. No timetable, but it sounds like he has a shot to make it up in September. If you go by Sale's path in 2010, he had four games in Winston-Salem and seven games in Charlotte over four weeks. So September 1st is about right.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 1, 2014 -> 11:23 PM) Jake Peter is 5-6 tonight.... 0-0 game in the 13th. That's tough to do.

Snodgress- 1 inning of relief, 2 k's

Go Beckham! No really, go.

Mariners in Cleveland. Jackson could pull a Joel Youngblood.

Helluva trade deadline.

Miller to Tigers close.

3 hours. Hope Danks pitches well, even though I think he stays.

Red Sox had three starting pitchers that made 20+ starts this season--Peavy, Lester, and Lackey. They gone.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 11:41 AM) Supposably they're just looking at trying to add relievers now

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 11:23 AM) Just let the deadline come and don't come to any conclusions until the deadline has passed. So leave and come back at 3.

Score just said Levine saying Danks may go just 4-5 innings, to allow time for a trade.

Not saying this is what Hahn is doing, but not scratching Danks for a noon start is an interesting negotiating move--if that's what it is.

It may be nothing to do with Danks, but some promotions have happened in the minors. Bucciferro to Birmingham Snodgress to Charlotte

Maybe 1. 17 hours.
