QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) So the Sox could have 2 LHPs to b**** about. No thanks. Milone or Carroll?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 02:03 PM) I'm not talking about today specifically. I've felt he should be hitting second for a while now. But Robin won't do it because it'll put Eaton and him back to back. Gillaspie should be batting 2nd or 4th against RH IMO.. Dunn or Alexei should be hitting 6th

Milone for Fuld.... De Aza couldn't be traded for him?

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 01:54 PM) Batting Ramirez 2nd is retarded in the first place. Not really.. Nobody else to put there. I would put Gillaspie there when facing RH but god forbid you put 2 lefties back to back

Alexei costing us runs.. Abreu is a beast

F off Alexei.. 3 DPs in 2 days.. What is the point of Eaton getting on base if you are going to ground into a DP every time

Eaton is good.

Danks got lucky there. Missed his spot

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 01:44 PM) Not much. Wrong answer. I was looking for "Absolutely Nothing"

What is Danks good for?

The guy I wanted gone the most looks like he will be here at least for a few more games

Danks is pretty much useless.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 01:04 PM) Trout is the best player in baseball and will be so for the next 10 years. Nothing against Jose, but Trout is a once-in-a-generation player. So that means he should win MVP every damn year? Why not just give him 10 MVPS right now.

Sierra!

Danks is a bum.. Wish we would trade him but not looking likely

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 12:12 PM) If Abreu grounds out to 3B, something's up... Nope, he just extends his hitting streak in the 1st inning. Awesome!

Ramirez grounds into a DP again.. Exactly what happened yesterday

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 10:12 PM) Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 16m Beckham: "I played so bad unfortunately I don’t know how much of a chance the White Sox have to trade me." That was his evil plan all along!! I can't believe he actually said that lol

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 10:08 PM) Yea but he's still 5 runs better than Jose, those count: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playe...amp;position=OF It's also positional adjustment LF/CF is harder than 1B, if you don't agree with the fWAR positional adjustments that's fine and the point is certainly debatable -- but Trout is a better hitter (barely, granted) than Jose and on the other facets of the game -- defense and baserunning, Trout smokes him. I def don't think MVP is a pure WAR wankfest but Jose would have to do something truely amazing like hit 400/500/750 during September with the Sox winning 24 of 29 to make the playoffs in order to leapfrog Trout, who simply is the better all around player. He has also played 9 more games and hits at the top of the line up on a better team. Who is hitting Abreu in when he gets in?? Trout might be the all around better players but offensive stats say they are just as good..

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 10:00 PM) They are very close. Trout will win because of the teams they play for. Which is stupid IMO... Jose is a rookie who has never playing in the MLB and is putting up better numbers then almost everyone in the league.. If you take Jose off this team, we are one of the 3 worst teams in the MLB, if you take Trout off of LAA, I still think they can grab a wildcard. I know its close but I hate how a lot of analysts and guys around the MLB think Trout already has it locked up with 2 months left and Jose putting up better numbers in his 1st year.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 09:49 PM) And an incredible baserunner. If he somehow gets robbed of the MVP again it will be a joke. No offense to Jose, who is one of the top 15 players in MLB, but Trout is inner circle HOF level, talking on pace to be one of the 15 best of all time, not just in MLB in 2014. He only has 10 SB... .299, 24 HR, 76 RBI, .388 OBP, .582 SLG, .970 OPS (102 G) .299, 31 HR, 83 RBI, .348 OBP, .628 SLG, .976 OPS (93 G) People are acting like this is no contest.. Those numbers are very close.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 08:37 PM) I'm sure Beckham will hit a 3-run homer to get this close. No

Glad Abreu extended his streak in this snooze fest

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 30, 2014 -> 08:07 PM) Heck, let Hector get a CG, Unless we get a few runs I would just keep him in there

Games like this suck so bad.
