Bloom, Blum. Whatever.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 09:54 PM) Wonder who gets the call....Kinda hope they let Rienzo continue to start so hoping for Taylor Thompson. Rienzo went 5 shutout tonight, so he's not available for a few days. They would need to clear a spot on the 40-man to add Taylor Thompson. Veal struck out the side tonight too--and he's a lefty. But also not on the 40-man. Just looked--Veal has been terrible besides tonight. I'd bet Rienzo is coming back, and they just want to get Sanchez back there playing.

QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 09:51 PM) Nice performance from our #3 starter Noesi. #2 like Paulino was in the first half. Noesi is a decent 4-5. Maybe next year good enough to be considered a 3.

Sanchez has been optioned to Charlotte.

More wins on Saturday than Thursday.

Nice game. Frustrating at times, but a win is a win.

No second guessing...I'm not a fan of this pitching change.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 08:56 PM) If you a prospect is struggling, why do you continue to play him everyday. Trey M (My favorite prospect in the system btw) is 0 for his last 39?, and is obviously stuck in a rut, but he keeps going out there everyday. Why not give him a chance to breathe and collect himself? He's in a slump, but he's not 0-39. Still at .280.

Ravelo 2-2, Sac Fly. Dude hits.

The last 12 days of De Aza in a Sox uniform.

12 up 12 down for Beck. No k's. 9 groundouts.

5 shutout innings for Rienzo.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 03:51 PM) Why is Sanchez still on the roster? The way they're explaining it is that the bullpen arms are fresh, so they only need 6 right now, and Sanchez gives them flexibility in the infield. Or you can be a skeptic and think a trade is coming, and Sanchez is already there and ready to go.

Buddy Bell on the Score. Said Rodon will pitch in Arizona on Tuesday and next Saturday, and probably will make his first appearance for Winston-Salem on Wednesday, July 30.

Wang gave up a run in the 1st. Welcome.

https://twitter.com/scotgregor/status/490267266970550272 It certainly appears they're going to give Rodon a shot to get big league time this season if he performs.

QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Jul 18, 2014 -> 05:42 PM) Once a player gets sent down, doesn't the team have to wait a certain amount of days before calling them back up? If so maybe that makes sense as to why they are keeping him up here in case Ramirez can't go 100%. They'd only have Garcia on the bench. Yes, but Alexei is fine and Semien could be called up if something happened. Plus the Sox only have 6 in the pen, which isn't the usual. So what I'm saying is...trade Beckham.

The tweet is gone now...hmm.

He hasn't thrown a pitch yet, and I'm so glad the Sox got Rodon.

Lineups https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/490210707582242817 Kinda surprised Sanchez is still around.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 18, 2014 -> 03:53 PM) Seven minutes until Aiken either signs or does not. Crazy. Feels good that we're not sweating out Rodon right now...even though he was never NOT going to sign.
