Jose Abreu

Rollins, Avila, and Sands basically serve no purpose on our roster. Everything good thing they do can be done, even more efficiently, by somebody else.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 30, 2016 -> 02:24 PM) Odds Avila hits a HR here? 1/1,000,000,000? Has he even hit a ball to the track this year?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 30, 2016 -> 02:19 PM) Can't agree with that reasoning. Bunting is a valid and effective strategy. We had one out and two runners in scoring position and our bug hitter up The Sacrifice Bunt: The Real Rally Killer

Great outing for Quintana. Too bad he gets a loss.

This ump...

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 2m2 minutes ago Todd Frazier is in a 1-22 slump. Shuck just got called up from Triple-A. Melky Cabrera was your best shot to drive in a run. Why bunt?

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 2m2 minutes ago If you weigh more than 160 pounds, you should not be allowed to bunt, especially if you've been the most consistent hitter on the team.

dumb move, now they walk frazier and let Shuck GIDP

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 30, 2016 -> 01:16 PM) I will never understand Robin's logic behind lineup construction. Shuck batting 5th just boggles the mind. .....

Love the NL, right? Mets with a runner on, but the great Matt Harvey on deck

15 batters, 0 baserunners (combined)

Looks like we got the strikeout-y version of Quintana today

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 30, 2016 -> 12:29 PM) Harvey at 97-98 MPH? Wonder if the Mets cranked up their gun to make him feel more confident in his stuff...? Does anyone know if it's normally that hot? That would explain Quintana at 95

I'm still shocked that Quintana hit 95. I don't remember ever seeing that out of him.

Cespedes entered today .600/4/10 vs. Quintana

Quintana hit 95??? Damn.

Of course, the nibbling is back...

Yup, I said it last week after yet another horrible outing from Harvey- he'll shut us down.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 30, 2016 -> 11:07 AM) Tommy Kahnle sent down and JB Shuck recalled and in line up today. It seems Austin Jackson might have pulled up limping yesterday. Foot problem I think Turf toe, he is hoping to avoid a DL stint

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 29, 2016 -> 04:33 PM) #VoteRoyals ‏@Royals 9m9 minutes ago Do you need a hug, @whitesox? Edit: I really f***ing hate the Royals. classy

we peaked in April

QUOTE (fathom @ May 29, 2016 -> 04:17 PM) He has 2 hits all season against the Royals Ok, and he'd have 4+ if they weren't playing such incredible defense

QUOTE (fathom @ May 29, 2016 -> 04:16 PM) The at bats these AAA hitters for KC have had are ridiculous. Way tougher outs than our superstar 1B He has been getting robbed today

It used to be just Quintana's issue, but it is now plaguing the whole team. We get a hitter to 0-2 or 1-2 and just throw ball after ball after ball. My god, there is NOT a rule against throwing a ball in the strike zone with 2 strikes.

QUOTE (Tony @ May 29, 2016 -> 04:05 PM) For who? Replaced by who? Albers? Who is coming in now? DRob is shot from yesterday, Putnam is gassed. So who? Who do you trust? Honestly, Purke or Jennings
