Change: Viciedo at DH, Gillaspie 1B

De Aza LF L. Garcia 2B Ramirez SS Gillaspie DH A Garcia RF Viciedo 1B Danks CF Semien 3B Phegley C Axelrod starts. Viciedo getting a look at 1B. I can't see the Indians scoring less than 8 runs.

I'd like to see the looks on the faces of the Rangers bench when the Indians score came up.

I know historically the difference between the 3rd and 5th pick is very little, but I still want the Sox to pick before the Cubs next June. We've gone this far, might as well get the highest pick available and see what we can do with it.

Poor guy. 2 outs and gives up a cheapy infield single.

First time one team has beaten the same team 13 in a row since 1968.

WOW! Magic number is 3.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 09:09 PM) This is the first time im rooting for the Sox in awhile. Rooting for the Indians and Swisher to get to the playsoffs is right up there rooting for the Cubs for me. Root against the Indians next Wednesday night.

Wacha will be taking a no-no to the 9th.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 09:04 PM) We will get the third pick stop worrying. Might, but three days in a row with the Sox winning and the Cubs losing is not what we want right now.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 08:57 PM) Can't forget Machado...Mike Zunino looks like a pretty good prospect as well. Yes. Thank you. I could actually see the Sox drop to 5th. Twins may lose out, and the Royals may just fold once they get eliminated. Have a fun weekend in Chicago and lose some ballgames.

Wacha through 7 innings. 86 pitches.

Hosmer, Longoria--both recent 3rd picks.

4th pick, here we come.

Just speaking for myself, even when Dunn had good streaks, I still hated his overall game. He's a losing player. Period.

Wacha no hitter thru 6. 70 pitches

I hope Paulie gets a nice send off on Sunday.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 03:18 PM) They can win these. They are all but guaranteed a top 5 pick and being 2 1/2 ahead of the Cubs for the 3 spot and 4 ahead of the Twins puts them in a good position to get the #3 pick regardless. Still, Cleveland has killed them all year. No need to think they'll stop now. Just to be exact, the Sox Magic Numbers are: Cubs - 4 Twins - 3 Mariners-1 3-3 for the Sox, with the Cubs going 1-4 gets the Sox the 3rd pick.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 03:13 PM) Interesting, I wonder if he's on a leave for some reason. No way he got traded. It's possible he has an injury and they just told him to stay home for the two days. That would make sense especially with expanded rosters.

Dan Hayes tweeting Keppinger not on lineup card as backup, and no locker for him in the clubhouse.

https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/3825843...4187266/photo/1 2 quick losses and come home to finish it.

Twins beat the Tigers. Good for the Sox.

Quintana with a win? Wow.

Reds and Pirates win. Cardinals going to the 9th up 4-3.

Addison Reed is fatigued, or something.
