My first reaction is to not like Beckham batting 9th, but what the hell...we'll see what happens.

Youkilis just arrived in the Sox clubhouse. Carrying Red Sox duffel bag.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jun 25, 2012 -> 01:41 PM) And 142-110 is a VERY significant disparity that translates to 91 victories for the average AL team, were they to play a full NL schedule. And that total will win divisions many times. In other words, a perfectly average AL team is a legit contender in the NL, if interleague sample size is sufficient. And since the AL Central went 45-45, the AL West and East teams combined for 97-65 in the other 162 games.

Marlon Byrd, current FA, suspended 50 games. Victor Conte says hello.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 25, 2012 -> 10:04 AM) Is 30% of the remaining White Sox schedule against the Royals and Twins? Yes, actually 1/3 games left are against KC and Min. If 88 games wins the division, 50-40 the rest of the way can be broken down this way: KC 9-6 Min 9-6 Det 5-5 Cle 3-3 Bal 2-2 Bos 2-2 NY 4-3 TB 2-2 Tor 4-3 LAA 3-3 Oak 2-1 Sea 2-1 Tex 3-3

Week ahead: Peavy vs Liriano Floyd vs Hendriks Sale vs Blackburn Axelrod vs Nova Quintana vs Sabathia Peavy vs Kuroda Floyd vs Hughes Rangers series, so far: Sale vs Oswalt Axelrod vs Lewis Quintana vs Harrison Unless the Sox adjust their rotation, Sale will pitch the Sunday before the break.

Matt Capps to DL- shoulder.

If the Indians are for real, we're about to find out. 3 at NY 4 at Bal 3 vs LAA 4 vs TB 3 at Tor 4 at TB 4 vs Bal 3 vs Det 3 at Min 3 at KC 3 at Det If they can play these 37 games at 19-18, I'll give them credit. Wouldn't be surprised if they go 14-23.

Looks like Stewart's first start will be against Charlotte. I hope he gets lit up.

Final Interleague Total: AL- 142 NL- 110 AL Central combined 45-45.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 07:26 PM) Pretty sure he said "having been traded before", it makes significantly more sense given the context. Ok, I must have misheard it.

Darrel Akerfelds died after his lengthy battle with pancreatic cancer. Jake Peavy will be pitching wth a heavy heart tomorrow night.

Rongey is still quoting that bogus Boston radio twitter account about the Thornton rumor yesterday. What an idiot.

Trevor Bauer debut this coming Thursday.

Kenneth video... http://www.csnchicago.com/pages/video?PID=...16745623806-914

I'd go: De Aza, Beckham, Dunn, Konerko, Rios, Youkilis, Viciedo, Pierzynski, Ramirez

3 good innings for Heath. Very impressive season.

Just heard Ventura say Lillibridge has never been traded before...um third time, Robin.

Bumping this because he deserves it. Jose Quintana has been awesome.

Jordan Danks have to change his number? Youkilis have that kind of clout?

I hate this is coming out during the game.

QUOTE (MAX @ Jun 24, 2012 -> 02:39 AM) Last Place 4-13 in interleague. You don't want to be that team. That's potentially a season killer.

Hahn is on with Rongey now. Nothing imminent, and he reiterated that usually when "rumors" come out, they don't come to fruition. Which is true.
