Nice "relief" appearance by Surkamp 6 ip, 5 h, 2 er, 1 bb, 7 k Purcey came in and lost it in the 9th.

Carlos Sanchez is having a pretty nice season so far. If the Sox don't have room for him over the next year, he might be a nice trade piece.

Cubs series is looking like this: Mon- Quintana vs Samardzjia Tue- Noesi vs Jackson Wed- Wood vs Danks Thu- Arrieta vs Carroll

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 3, 2014 -> 02:10 PM) Steverson will fix 'em! Seriously though, what's the scoop on this guy (hitting, fielding, arm, power, speed, etc.)? Does he have any potential to be productive or is he just a warm body? Without knowing too much about him, he looks like a decent 4th outfielder. Decent pop in his bat. Good speed. Knows how to take an occasional walk. Just hasn't hit major league pitching well yet.

35 players by May 4th. Good grief.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 3, 2014 -> 01:41 PM) Wow, what the hell is wrong with him? Is Sierra going to replace Eaton on the roster now? I think Sierra will join the team Sunday. Then they'll send out a pitcher. They have 8 in the pen now.

There's a new lefty. Bruce Levine reports.

Eaton has been placed on the DL.

Nate Jones has been placed on the 60-day DL to make room. I think Jones coming back this season is looking grim.

According to the Blue Jays. Not sure if this is a good thing.

Paulino's rehab start: 2 IP, 5 h, 2 r, 1 er, 1 bb, 1 k 46 pitches, 26 strikes No word on Davidson yet.

De Aza LF Beckham 2B Abreu 1B Dunn DH Viciedo RF Ramirez SS Danks CF Flowers C Semien 3B Bourn CF Swisher 1B Brantley LF Santana C Chisenhall 3B Cabrera SS Giambi DH Murphy RF Ramirez 2B

Paulino not pitching over a Liddi error in the 2nd. 3-2 Charlotte.

Dan Black hitting for Matt Davidson. Hmmmmm.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 3, 2014 -> 12:29 PM) Probably, the more options we have to choose from for the next five months, the better off we are...he's got the stuff, it's not like we are talking Axelrod, Surkamp or Doyle here. I just don't trust Paulino to make it back up and do anything positive.

Paulino- K, single up the middle, single (off his right leg), double play

Off Ricky Romero- Hernandez single, Sanchez RBI double, Phegley single, Davidson sac fly, Phipps walk, Liddi single (Phegley out at home), Tekotte walk, Saladino ground out All that for 2 runs. And now Paulino...

Is it wrong I want Paulino to get torched today?

Only four AL teams have a positive run differential: A's +53 Angels +37 Tigers +15 Orioles +2 NL leads interleague play 25-17.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20140503 Charlotte at noon. Paulino starts.

The Cubs are just a team on the schedule. The word "rivalry" shouldn't exist in baseball.

Barnum's homer. More of that, please. http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=32549483

Eaton might be going on the DL https://twitter.com/DanHayesCSN/status/462425344306589696

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ May 2, 2014 -> 09:39 PM) No Hawkins or Anderson. Any word on why both guys are out? Anderson has a shoulder injury. On the DL. http://dashboard.mlblogs.com/2014/05/01/an...-disabled-list/ Hawkins...not sure.

Veal loses in the 11th. 1-0 loss.
