QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 06:04 PM) Anyone else get the strange feeling Hawk has been told to advertise our players a bit on today's broadcast in case other GM's are watching? It's not AT ALL like Hawk to say the things he just did about Alexei. I've always thought he turns up the propaganda when it's a WGN game.

Hawkins out with a hamstring. Not supposed to be serious though.

Just for the hell of it, I looked at where Kipnis was drafted- 63rd pick, two after Trayce Thompson. (not that Sox should have drafted him in Beckham's rookie year)

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 12:34 PM) This team will end up going on a run at some point, moving our draft pick to around 7-10 just to piss all of you off. This kind of thing often happens after the firesale. I've had that same thought, but this time, I'd be shocked if the Sox win 70 games. We still have 13-15 losses coming from the Tigers. And probably another 8 from the Indians.

Simon Castro is getting called up. He was already on the 40-man.

If the Sox are flat-out saying Chris Sale is untouchable and don't even ask about him, they're dumb. I'm not saying they have to find the best deal and take it, but if they don't even listen, it's the wrong move.

Slept through it. 4th pick in the draft. Closing in on the 3rd.

Thompson double

Viciedo is in the doghouse with Ventura.

Casper Wells is trending worldwide on Twitter

Michalczewski, 3-5, double.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 07:58 PM) wait wait wait wait. we have a promotion to wear BLACKHAWKS gear (red) to a home game against the INDIANS (also red)? seriously, who's the idiot who thought that one up? Choose your battles.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 07:52 PM) Only in a I'm a White Sox fan and have been for well over 50 years and this is what I do in the summer kind of way. I follow/watch the f***ing White Sox. Some years, like this they'll piss me off to no end but I'll still watch. This year I'm far more interested in the minor league system, for better or worse. I'm excited about the up and coming moves which I hope are plenty. Right now I want losses and a real good draft pick next year. That said, from game to game, I want them to win, but when they don't I'm fine with it. It's complicated. I hear you. Wins and losses will happen. At the end of the season, the Sox will probably be 71-91 at best, to 67-95 at worse. Witnessing it is the hard part, but as a fan, you watch or follow.

It's gotta be weird having to go into the clubhouse after a game like this, and actually have to stay there and play another game. Is there anyone on this team that would even raise a voice at all?

Wilkins homer. Doing well at AAA so far. Johnson pitching ok too.

I'd say Kipnis is pretty well locked in right now.

RBI single for Phegley

Obligatory Bears/Browns score mention...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 06:31 PM) Dunn is over .200 now, OBP .310 Now that he knows he won't have to man up in September. 15 months left of that clown.

Phegley has hit a mini-slump.

It would be nice if the Indians gave the Tigers a little run for their money, and the Sox get a better draft pick. I'm ok with all of this.

Erik Johnson just gave up a homer. It's bad all over.

This is what the call "taking one for the team". Hope he wore some lube.

Erik Johnson is pitching right now, so there goes that idea.
