Jose Abreu

If I, in mid-April, told you that Dan Jennings would have the lowest ERA on the team come June 29, you'd probably think Jones/Albers/Sale/Robertson/Quintana all hit the DL

By "this type of lineup", I mean not wasting the DH spot on someone like Garcia or Coats and rather have Saladino play 3B, Frazier shift to 1B, and Abreu to DH, while keeping Anderson/Lawrie as the DP combo. I feel like Saladino's vastly offense plus his stellar defense surely helps the club in multiple ways, while eliminating DH at-bats (or, should I say, strikeouts) from Garcia and Coats and giving them to Abreu is obviously beneficial. Of course, a lot of this can change if Davidson is in fact called up, but for the time being, I'm a big fan of the Saladino/Anderson/Lawrie/Frazier infield with Abreu at DH.

I expect strikeouts, and lots of them, but hope he's successful nonetheless

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 29, 2016 -> 07:42 PM) I would imagine that Purke goes down. I'd call up Davidson and Bourgeios or Leury and send Avi down too. Yeah, Bourgeios/Leury definitely deserve a shot this year too, mainly the former

He left yesterday's game due to it. Out 3-4 days minimum

Abreu

Frazier back below the Mendoza line

RIP

Lmao, remember when we almost signed Park?

The Quintana run support curse continues

Mark Buehrle

Adam Eaton

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 27, 2016 -> 12:57 PM) Posters were calling for his head last year. I think it did take him a year to adjust, to the league again and maybe the park. But he was still a decent hitter last year.

Chris Sale would like to see Mark Buehrle retire in a White Sox uniform

At first I chalked it up to bad BABIP luck, but it seems like he's either always striking out or hitting weak choppers to the shortstop, so I don't really have an explanation for it.

I fear we start Sale, he pitches a couple innings, and then, boom, 2 hour rain delay.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 25, 2016 -> 08:13 PM) Thompson has finally fallen below the mythical 800 OPS number this year, and his average is nearing the .230's. Career OPS still of 839, but the real Trayce is returning, PROBABLY. This is the real Trayce. His fluky hitting ended.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 25, 2016 -> 04:39 PM) lmao, RV and this bullpen is like dipping a rag in kerosene and giving it to a pyromaniac a long with a pack of matches. Game was there to win, RV pretended it wasn't for a minute, and that cost them. Yea the pen sucks but that just makes using it smartly even more important. This.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 25, 2016 -> 04:30 PM) The crazy thing is we might have been closer (realistically) to contending last season at the end of July than we will be this year. That one "false" positive hot streak that caused Hahn not to sell off, but not to add, either. That still pisses me off. We should've either bought or sold, but doing absolutely nothing was simply stupid.

If we kept Jennings for the 9th this game is probably tied

Damn

Abreu with some luck

Ceding the top of the ninth inning was a wonderful idea, Robin.

SEVEN solo home runs, are you serious

Avila..?
