Clever at-bat by Adam, 1-0 lead, just need to get Sale through 5

Conor Gillaspie is the greatest hitter of all time

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 27, 2014 -> 08:24 PM) Stone said it was a "threat of rain" delay. So they stayed in when it wasn't raining and it allowed the rain to start sooner into the game. Sweet.

Was it raining during the delay to the start?

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 27, 2014 -> 08:16 PM) He's totally cromulent, which we haven't seen in awhile. Imagine how could Mike Cameron would look to our starved eyes. His defence embiggens his overall value to the Sox, that's for sure

Wanna hear the scary thing about Chris Sale? His FIP says that he's been unlucky to have a 1.83 ERA

god he's so good

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 26, 2014 -> 09:42 PM) May? That should put him above the .200 mark now on the season. No, Jacob Morris. Iirc selected in one of the mid-20 rounds of last year's draft, hit poorly in a small-sample in college but a great athlete, considered a plus, possibly plus-plus defender in CF, high K, decent walk, power potential, low avg.

Jacob Morris went 4-5 with 4 doubles

Jose Quintana gets a decision Hope you all enjoy your final day on earth

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 26, 2014 -> 04:32 PM) I'm glad De Aza scores well in defensive stats. It does more to invalidate them. Any stat that says he's anything other than atrocious is a stupid stat. The thing with Alejandro is when he does something bad, it tends to be dramatically and stupidly bad. Those stick in the memory.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 26, 2014 -> 04:19 PM) Maybe he can address getting over .200 by August. Alexei was hitting .199 on May 24th 2012

Scott Downs did a thing!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 26, 2014 -> 04:11 PM) I am not writing War and Peace about him, I could of mentioned bad base running and horrid defense. You got the cliff notes version. The only one of either of those that has ever graded negatively in his career is his 2013 defence, and that wasn't by much, and that's been addressed by moving to a less strenuous defensive position.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 26, 2014 -> 04:07 PM) Average is .175 no defending it anymore. If average is the only thing that matters, why mention his K rate?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 26, 2014 -> 04:00 PM) De Aza is worthless If he got cut today he would clear waivers no problem. Never seen a guy hitting .175 on Memorial Day defended so much. All his outs are line drives bad luck nonsense, his K rate is thru the roof. His K rate is 24.5%, his career average is 20.7%. Sierra's by the way is 29.1%.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:52 PM) Remember when people wanted Gillaspie DFA'd this winter in order to keep Dunn. And the people that want De Aza DFA'd now for a guy with a wRC+ of 17? (De Aza's is 39)

Can't be long before Paulie gets thrown out at first from left or right-field

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 25, 2014 -> 02:23 PM) We all know what stat you would inferring when mentioning line drives.. A number of years?? I think even old-school baseball people will mention about players hitting line drive outs when asked why a player isn't hitting well. And yeah, 2011, 2012 and 2013 specifically. fWARs of 2.6 (in 171 PAs), 2.7 and 2.2 respectively. I think we can probably safely assume he's in decline now though. But that doesn't mean he's anywhere near as bad a hitter as he's shown so far this year.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 25, 2014 -> 02:14 PM) Here you come with that stupid stat again.. The dude isn't good just let it go I didn't even mention any stat. I'm just saying he's made a lot of line drive outs lately. That's not a stat. He's obviously had a bad year. But he's been a good player for a number of years. I'm not giving up yet.

De Aza has made so many line drive outs lately. Surely that can't continue.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 12, 2014 -> 05:49 AM) So video magically appeared 7 years after the murder and two trials happened? Color me skeptical So what do you think, that it was edited?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 22, 2014 -> 04:30 PM) The 2012 version, compared to 2014 ADA, yes. We can't discount how many bases are taken on DeAza versus those 3rd base coaches who have learned to respect Viciedo's arm. Ok. You're wrong.

*searches for thread where guy was telling me Viciedo was a better left-field defender than De Aza* EDIT: Got it. lol @ caulfield

Second time in two days Beckham turned a possible triple into a certain double
