Jose Abreu

And he swings at that pitch... the one that was the furthest out of the zone

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:26 PM) How's his velocity? Is he a soft tossin' righty? 90/91, but with his performance this year, he can toss as softly as he wants.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:25 PM) If you want to play fun with selective endpoints look at Jordan's splits by month: http://www.fangraphs.com/statsplits.aspx?p...amp;season=2014 He vacillates between .98 and .289. It's a silly argument for any player let alone Jordan. That's because Jordan has had very scattered MLB ABs over 3 seasons. De Aza gets far more playing time.

Putnam: 1.2 IP, 0 baserunners allowed. What a find he was.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:20 PM) The only consistent thing about JorDanks hitting is that he's not good. He has significant holes in his swing. That's kind of what I meant by "more consistent hitter". Danks is fairly consistently below average while De Aza is either hitting .025 for the month or .375 for the month.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:08 PM) Are you guys arguing that Jordan Danks should play over De Aza or be kept over him? Haha. Jordan Danks. Only way Danks bat would play is if he's like +20 runs in CF. Then you could move Eaton to LF to keep him healthy but that's just crazy talk. Yes, but as a 4th OF, not a starter. We're not that crazy. It's basically because he makes less money, is a more consistent hitter, and a much better fielder.

Great AB Carlos!

Has there ever been a team that had a uniform #77 and a #79 at the same time?

Tyler's "Magic Glasses Phase" will be the only thing keeping his average above .215 by season's end. And as I type this, he singles.

How does Guerra have a 2.80 ERA? edit- 3.92 FIP...

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 09:36 PM) Speaking of De Aza, not sure why he didn't pinch-hit for Viciedo And Dunn should've pinch-hit for Konerko against a RHP

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 09:28 PM) You have to give Viciedo credit for patience. He got the slider off the plate he was looking for. you forgot this- at least I hope

well that was fast

Konerko HBP in the groin... HR his next AB?

A. Garcia with a 2B. He got his bat back. Should've been a 3B.

Q's ERA was as low as 2.84 in San Francisco. Now it's 3.48.

God, Lindstrom... lucky Eaton just redeemed himself

QUOTE (beautox @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 08:55 PM) Hes made 12 starts in CF this year and the white sox still want a capable lead off man if Eaton goes down. I don't mind De Aza on this team again next year as a little more than a 4th outfielder. We can pay someone a lot less to put up similar or better production as a 4th OF. I'd take Jordan Danks. He has shown flashes offensively, and his defense is lightyears ahead of De Aza.

Quintana has always been one for unlucky losses... how about a lucky win tonight!

yes Alexei!

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 25, 2014 -> 07:02 PM) Eaton, Abreu, and Avi have been in the same lineup this year just 8 games. What about Eaton/Abreu/Garica/Gillaspie? (assuming Alexei's played every game with that group)

The real question is- when Sierra comes up, who goes down?

Moises Sierra to begin a rehab assignment at AAA Charlotte tonight.

Rodon 6 Ks thru 3

Semien has been on fire lately.
