Jose Abreu

Kris Bryant is 0-5 with 5 strikeouts vs Chris Sale this year.

Sale with 200 strikeouts for the 3rd straight season.

QUOTE (Tmar @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 02:04 PM) Pitcher with bad ankle, hitter who can't hit, infield shift on. Just f***ing bunt you piece of crap ladunn Come on, man, don't disrespect Dunn like that.

LaRoche is hitting .163 with 1 home run since 6/25.

Wasn't Dan Haren all whiny this offseason because he said he'd only pitch for the Dodgers or Angels? Now here he is, pitching for the Marlins and now Cubs...

Great, here comes a strikeout.

That 2-1 pitch which was called a strike was definitely low.

Now, if Abreu were not batting 2nd, maybe Melky would have been on base for that HR...

Abreu, Sale, Quintana, Cabrera, and Eaton are really the only SP/position players who I'd put in the "don't suck" category for this year.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 01:53 PM) Only 1 strikeout that inning. Disappointing. Don't worry, 2+ are coming next inning. One guaranteed from Bryant, and at least one from Denorifa/Rizzo

199 strikeouts now for Sale

"Carlos Sanchez singles on a sharp line drive to catcher Miguel Montero"

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 2m2 minutes ago Adam LaRoche batting splits this season. As a 1B: .233 As a DH: .195 As a pitcher: 1.000. He's 1 for 1.

Sale now has 198 strikeouts on the season

I was hoping Sale would throw the elusive 27 strikeout perfect game. He was 4/27 of the way there.

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 2m2 minutes ago Adam LaRoche batting .131 in August. April thru July wasn't much better.

That's what happens when you move your poor-fielding SS to 2B

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 01:17 PM) I want LaRoche to hit a home run in the first inning. I just want him to not strike out or GIDP in any inning.

I love how GameDay mobile now shows the speed and movement of pitches on the PitchTrax. Sale's 97 MPH strikeout pitch to Bryant came in very fast and had lots of late movement on the app. It really depicts his nastiness.

Wasn't Bryant 0-4 against Sale with 4 strikeouts last time? Lmao Bryant is property of Chris Saele

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 3m3 minutes ago Washington, DC Saladino said when he was younger, he thought the coolest thing would be to be No. 1 on ESPN Top Plays. He hit that goal last night

Winner of today's game gets the Cup!

At the time, it seemed like a good signing because he was going to serve as a superutility man. Then Shuck started playing well and we signed Beckham, essentially eliminating his role.

7-8-9 IMO should be Saladino/Sanchez/Flowers, not Sanchez/Flowers/Saladino.

So now our bench is Shuck, Thompson, Beckham, Soto. 2 outfielders. That's really unnecessary.
