QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 09:46 PM) Moises Sierra's 2014 wRC+ is 12. Next lowest of players with 85+ PA is 20. I wonder what it looks like with only his CHA games included in the stat.

Watching a Sox/Dodgers game on the MLB.tv Dodgers feed, I learned that Dewayne Wise loves baseball so much he turned down a college scholarship to play football and has the MLB logo tattooed on his upper arm.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 2, 2014 -> 08:29 PM) I am watching Dodger feed Vin is a joy to listen to. Kershaw 12 pitches 2 innings yikes. Their feed with Charley Steiner is just as good... Dodgers fans are very lucky.

Clayton Kershaw will pitch his first career no-hitter tonight.

Every single team is going to add this to their scouting report on Abreau. "He is a huge v*****. Throw at him."

f***ing release/fire whoever threw the ball.

Is Liddi on the roster still or did they release him?

I would avoid drafting Rodon simply because his uniform is way the f*** too tight.

a guy... named Nola.... who goes to LSU. Can't make this stuff up.

They might as well let a position player pitch against Kershaw. No Sale? No win.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 28, 2014 -> 10:11 AM) I'd bet anything they just keep him on schedule. Monday vs Kershaw. Oh boy... fan-of-elite-pitching-baseball-boner-time

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 28, 2014 -> 08:17 AM) Did you know Tanaka or Abreu were going to be free agents in May last year? Speaking of which, can you imagine how good Tanaka would look wedged between Sale and Quintana? Talk about a core to move forward with... Man, I'm still bummed he signed with the Yankees.

Did anyone notice/report/post that Myles Jaye was sent down to WS?

PRAY FOR RAIN!!!!!!

Totally off topic, but did you guys see the new Body Count video yet? HILARIOUS....

thank you, Alejandro, for leveling the pitchcountometer so things are equal moving forward.

Scott Downs and Daniel Webb might combine for 100 pitched themselves, if they are left to fend for themselves for 2+ innings.

Rick Hahn's northshore posse will be waiting in the manager's office with a body bag if Chris Sale throws more than 100 pitches tonight.

Chris Sale, you are RIDICULOUS!

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 22, 2014 -> 06:48 PM) Especially with only two guys on base I said it would be huge, I didn't say it was possible. Yeesh.

A grand slam from Eaton here would be huge.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 21, 2014 -> 09:49 AM) With Putnam, his career record suggests you just have to ride him while he's hot in the 7th and 8th, mostly. Bulls***. The reason Putman has been successful is pitch selection, plain and simple. His best pitch is the splitter. Prior to the Sox he threw the splitter roughly 30% of the time, seldom on first pitch or in hitter's counts. Now he is throwing the splitter 55% of the time and both on first pitch and hitter's counts. Putman is successful this season because he is "playing to his strengths" as opposed to throwing meatballs 60% of the time, which he did in Cleveland, Colorado and with the Chubs.

I just made the mistake of looking up Gavin Floyd's stats this season.

Is Lindstrom any better than Petricka? This is likely addition by subtraction.
