I don't think that will last

Not scoring with bases loaded and nobody out is such a buzzkill for a team.

If you are going to pitch him down and away then why the shift?

Gio has thrown more balls then strikes

Typical old White Sox right there.

Great..

I think Tim likes taking walks now. lol

QUOTE (mac9001 @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 01:30 PM) Giolito's fastball velocity has been very underwhelming so far, he's down probably another 2 MPH over even last year. He is pitching in the cold and still hitting 93 at times. I suspect in a month he will be hitting 95 at times.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 01:23 PM) Has to stop taking first pitch fastball strike as much as he has. 7 straight at bats this series he took first pitch strike. He is the lead off hitter, it is very typical for a lead off guy to take the first pitch or two. He does need to swing at it every once and awhile to keep them honest though

I'm gonna go ahead and turn this one off

What an awful home opener. Sox quit today

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:50 PM) No Looks like it to me

Is Infante our worst pitcher?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:40 PM) Giolito has had some awful luck to start this year. Second game he's gonna pitch tomorrow and will be cold as hell. If he pitches tomorrow there is a good chance nobody will know it even happened

We all knew Soria was going to blow a lot of games, just never thought it would be against the Tigers up 3 in 30 degree weather

What a buzz kill

What the f*** was that?!?

Jesus, 1 strike away and now the winning run is up

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 05:08 PM) this is absurd, just call the game. you can't play baseball in this s***. It seems like that is exactly what they are doing.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 09:21 AM) The Looming Tower on Hulu is great. It is, however, very frustrating to watch seeing how the CIA and FBI kept information from each other. The show so far makes the CIA, especially two agents, look worse, but I'm sure blame falls on both agencies. Knowing how this all ends with the 9/11 attacks, it's very upsetting to think it could have been prevented had the two agencies actually worked together. There was a 3 part docu-series last year (can't remember the channel) that was very eye opening on how much was missed leading up to 9/11. After watching The Looming Tower I want to go back and watch it again

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 12:12 PM) No. He said he threw live batting practice to his teammates a couple days ago. He’s just further back on the schedule. Looks like he will be starting 5th. Has to be a reason for it

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 10:41 AM) Plus Sanchez can back up those positions. True but then you have Davidson as your 3B and that is not something anyone wants late in games

He can play every position in the infield and him on the roster keeps L. Garcia as the back up OF. If Cordell replaced him then Garcia would be your back up 2B/SS

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 09:58 PM) thank god they changed that "hit" on the humpback linedrive engel dropped. an overall horrific defensive game from engel tonight. we'll see who gets the start in cf tmr. He had a tough series in the field. I'm not sure how much of that is from being in a dome and not being use to seeing ball in that setting but most of his AB's have been encouraging. He is having solid/competitive at bats and getting on base at a really good clip for our 9 hitter (.400)

3 more outs from Soria....
