Davidson ended up 3-4. Big thing from EJ's line is that 0 walks.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 12, 2014 -> 08:57 AM) I heard one of the minor league announcers commenting on this (referring to the long at-bats)...the White Sox organization should do the same thing. Any hitter who can manage to get a 10 (or more pitches) at-bat gets a free steak dinner. Simple idea, but it's amazing how much good instilling this type of philosophy from the very beginning of their time in the organization would do by the time they reach Chicago and Steverson. We're already seeing some of this out of Semien and Eaton, for example. Of course, a lot of it's currently ending up in K's for Marcus, at least for the time being until he can make some more adjustments. We do this for the HS baseball team I coach. The players get a steak dinner for a 3 pitch inning, or more than a 10 pitch at bat. The players get a gatorade if they were a walk from an 0-2 count or have more than 5 foul balls in an at bat.

Kanny came back and won in the top of the 7th. Trey 1-3 with an RBI Engel 1-3 with a 2B

Barnum 2-3 now. Wheeler for Kanny pitched very well again. Kanny's pitching has been very good this season.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2014 -> 03:12 PM) Please please add another outfielder to this roster. ADA is unplayable against LHP. Leury is a waste of a roster spot right now. I'd rather have him in CF right now than De Aza

Good time for De Aza to make up for his embarrassing blunder in the 1st.

What an at bat by Sierra.

Barnum with a HR and Basto is 2-2

Noesi pitching well

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 11, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) Noesi got a good arm. Can anybody who's into stats tell me what's his ERA taking away the performance against tbe sox? Not including today. 0-1 10 IP 10 hits 5 ER 2 BB 9 K 1.20 WHIP

Noesi has struck out Goldschmidt twice today lol

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 11, 2014 -> 01:20 PM) Hawk is crazy saying that should have been a "team error." That should have been an error given to De Aza plain and simple. In 2012 De Aza was one of my favorite players. It's gotten to the point now where I don't care if he ever plays another game for the Sox. The Sox better do something to improve their outfield defense. His name is Adam Eaton

Basto is hitting 305 in high A as a 20 year old. Doesn't walk, but not a bad K% either. Can he become a prospect again?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 10, 2014 -> 06:30 PM) Here. A lot of this is because Putnam's become so reliable now, and they don't want to risk losing Noesi, because of his potential ability as a starter. They also were able to pile up some experienced veteran depth in AAA in Guerra and Francisco. What they're planning to do with Webb going forward, no idea. IMO I think Webb or maybe even Petricka are lead candidates for the closer role in the future. I think both could be a very good 8th-9th inning when their control is good.

Still good to see Phegley doing well in AAA. Just launched a 2 run HR

After the first hitter, Cleto looked real good. His slider was sharp tonight. All I gotta say is what a play by Alexei

That's a nice inning for Danks. Quality start for him.

Give me Kolek, Aiken, Rodon in that order.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 6, 2014 -> 11:12 PM) Should have watched sox instead of hawks. Reading game thread I really want to see the pitch tracker. If zone was that bad it explains the swings at the sliders. The zone really was that bad. Good win! Now lets get 2 more and be 2 games above 500!!

That's not even close to a strike. The strike zone this series has been atrocious

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 6, 2014 -> 11:05 AM) Sure thing. Engel has been tearing it up there after a slow start. Anything from Cleluis Rondon is exciting. Trey Michalczewski is playing like an on base monster. 127 PAs, 13.4% BB% and he's gotten HBP for four times. He was at 10.4% BB% last year in 222 PAs. Really advanced approach from a kid who just turned 19. Between Trey, Engel, and Rondon I really like what I see so far this season. Dykstra and Danish have been impressive as well.

If you would of told me that Kanny had a better record than our other 3 teams, I would of called you crazy. Big start for Beck and Hanson today.

No way they can overturn this. I think he's out anyway.

Wendelken and Rondon all playing well so far in the first month + to go along with Montas' encouraging start.

Early vote for Rookie of the Year and AL MVP in my opinion....
