QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) Tigers are having a rough week. And yet they hit the 1/3 mark at 30-24. On pace for 90 wins. They'll get hot and win 95. But yeah, their bullpen isn't great--lower ERA than the Sox by the way.

I wish it were like the old days when a guy got drafted, you didn't hear from him again for 3-4 years, and you were lucky to see his stats once a week in the Sunday paper. But the internet makes that impossible and it's fun to follow a guy from day 1 of his professional career. Sometimes we need to realize these guys are super young, and haven't played a lot of baseball if they come out of high school. I just hope Hawkins keeps a good attitude, is coachable, and progresses each year. My only beef so far, is the Sox probably should have started him at Kanny at age 19. But we'll see how the next few months go.

Tigers lose. Bullpen couldn't bail out Porcello. Also hit into 4 DPs.

Here's that Hahn interview... http://chicago.cbslocal.com/audio/986-670-...-interviews#986

Sac fly for Phegley. He also made a throwing error. His 3rd error.

Hawkins- K. Welcome back.

QUOTE (Jimbo1965 @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 11:35 AM) Isn't Ravelo the guy that quit last year? I believe he had to take a leave for a family issue.

Dewayne Wise on the DL with a hamstring. Jordan Danks recalled. The brothers are on the 25-man for the first time.

Sale's going. Which is nice. A's lineup https://twitter.com/Athletics/status/341218...4102145/photo/1

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 2, 2013 -> 12:52 AM) Semien starting to heat it up. Up to .279 with .380 OBP. Rangel Ravelo continues to hit. Hitting .386 at W-S. Still needs to show some pop though, especially for a 1B. Semien seems to be making his way up the ladder very nicely. He's versatile in the field and can hit a little bit. At the very least, I think he'll play in the majors some day. I can't say that about Walker and Mitchell.

Charlotte walked 12 batters and only allowed 3 runs. That's hard to do. Veal had 4 of them. Bassitt with another good start.

https://twitter.com/susanslusser/status/340987978446954496 I've noticed Gimenez being animated a few times this year and figured it would be an issue at some point this year. Not that I'm blaming him.

This would be so stressful if the Sox were good.

Nice!

A's were 93.2% to win there. Now 65%

Sale tomorrow.

Here comes pain.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 05:37 PM) Sox always play like crap at the house of horror in Oakland. They've been better the last few years, but they're always good for at least one weird game a year....kinda like when the Sox go to KC.

Hawk..STFU

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 05:23 PM) 7 is quite the peculiar number. Why not look at the last 8 seasons? Oh wait, then you'd have to add 11 postseason wins for the Sox. That would ruin your agenda wouldn't it? Weak

Anyone see that story on Casey Gillaspie, brother of Cone-r? He's at Wichita St. 6-4, 220. Power hitter. He'll be a junior next year.
