According to ESPN's hittracker, Jose Abreu leads both the "Just Enough" and "Lucky" categories. Which means, he is strong enough to get routine flyballs to leave the park. http://www.hittrackeronline.com/detail.php...amp;type=hitter

Hooray for AAA filler.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 01:03 PM) I hope when you hate on AJP you are hating on a player who gave you a WS title. Without him, the White Sox do not win it all for the only time in your lifetime. Unless baseball changes its economic system dramatically, the Sox won't be winning any more in your lifetime. Maybe one if everything falls perfectly into place one magical year to come. Brian Anderson also kicked some serious ass in that brawl. Probably the only reason why Ozzie let him stick around until 2008 (or whenever).

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 06:29 PM) And then like everyone else we'll decide in 5 games that he's useless and doesn't belong in AAA let alone the big leagues.

Nieto has better offensive numbers than AJ and Flowers. If its a lost season where the team sells off guys late July, then why not at least see if Nieto can handle catching 4 times a week.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 11:05 AM) He has 40 career home runs. I must have gotten my information from Jon Heyman

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 09:14 PM) Scott Downs got smoked against Tigers glad he is gone. He threw 3.1 scoreless innings prior to yesterday.

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 06:39 PM) Well he's got 16 homers and I think he was picked since it is in his home stadium. If I'm not mistaken, he has hit 40+ homers since the ALG last season. he is a legit power threat.

Aren't ALL sox fans considered "foul weather fans" though? I mean, a "fair weather fan" is one whose rooting interest fades when team success fades. Since the Sox have been a cellar dweller for what, 5 years now, all of us who are "fan enough" to register for an account on a message board and argue with each other over things like Gordon Beckham's trade value or Adam Dunn's ISO and OPS+ ..... are in some way a "foul weather fan".

So... the Sox two worst starters throw shutouts and we squander the games our best two starters pitched... sounds about right. #FireWalker

get the bullpen going.

Here comes the once-every-couple-Quintana-starts-really-s***ty-inning... dammit.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 04:40 PM) Quintana's record third time through the order is something he's gonna have to fix if he wants to threaten a no-no/perfecto Quintana has been throwing nothing but fastball/curveball today, so I wouldnt be surprised if we see cutter/change 3rd time through.

The official White Sox twitter account can now start tweeting #fail with everything instead of #targetsale

Completely off topic, but if anyone likes electronic music, the new Matt Lange ep is f***ing ridiculous.

Good, so now Sale can strike out Rizzo in front of millions of viewers.

I really hope Q outpitches Lester today. He seems to be throwing harder that usual, attacking the inner half (as he usually does). Quintana is the next Sox player to come out of national sports obscurity and become a "name player". Dude's legit.

He should change his twitter handle to @EpicRunProducer

My money is on the Cardinals signing AJ when the Red Sox officially release him, since Molina is out 8-12 weeks.

Seems like a win for all parties... Boras got his guy the most money possible, Rodon and his family are set for life and the Sox got a very exciting young player in the mix. *shrug*

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 09:38 AM) Love that story. Pitcher acts like child. AJ ignores it. AJs fault somehow. Author nailed it. The Red Sox are being babies...again There are only two non-veteran pitchers on the Red Sox who have made starts this year, Rubby De La Rosa and Brandon Workman. Workman has been pretty consistent, but the Cubs marked him up for 5er on July 2nd. De La Rosa hasn't really had a terrible outing as the report indicates, so I would assume its Workman.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA no

Petricka going for another 4+ out save?
