Jose Abreu

wow

Not definitive, again

was he safe or something?

I've always liked Dyson. Decent hitter and the second fastest player in baseball. I wish KC gave him more chances before their outfield was Gordon/Cain/Aoki.

Moises is hitting .279 with us now

Sierra's doing it all. Hitting, fielding, and his dugout antics.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 08:29 PM) He should have bunted though! there was literally no one on the left side! The other day, Colby Rasmus actually did this and was safe. For some reason, Colby Lewis, who was pitching, got really pissed. It was 2-0 Toronto in the 5th, so Lewis didn't really have a reason to be mad.

In a couple days, Beckham's average will be lower than Dunn's.

Sierra, what an arm

Great AB Conor

GameDay says the 0-1 to Conor was a 71 MPH eephus?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 08:11 PM) He was at High A last year. Two leagues above rookie ball. My mistake. It's still incredible.

The fact that Nieto is hitting .268 vs Major League pitching without playing above High-A is incredible.

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 4m Jose Abreu has the same amount of homers (29) as Billy Butler, Alex Gordon, Eric Hosmer and Salvador Perez have combined. #WhiteSox

Someone replied "2nd best pitcher in baseball?" Stark: Actually has a better career WHIP than Kershaw!

Jayson Stark: How great has Chris Sale been? He's 9-1, 2.03, with 2 blown saves. And his only loss is a 1-0 game where he K'd 10 and BB'd none.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 11:24 AM) Danks for Eric Jagielo and Aaron Judge. Just sweep their entire 2013 1st RD class. But seriously, I would love to have Aaron Judge. A gigantic OF who has been drawing a ton of walks so far. Jagielo would be cool but unrealistic

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 22, 2014 -> 11:23 AM) I wonder if he has a running joke going with somebody to work in a "big word" during his media time. Cacophony, and now ubiquitous? Somethings up. He does. He uses a word like that in every post-game interview.

So, uh... any AJ news?

Gillaspie has 300 plate appearances but still does not qualify for batting average leaders. When will he qualify?

well I guess nobody seems to be celebrating Nieto as our starting catcher for the next few days

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 21, 2014 -> 11:09 PM) Great win. Sox need to get even with the punk Royals. That was our first win over KC in the Cell this year. Must back it up with more wins. The Royals seem to throw at our hitters a lot. Guthrie really did a disservice to his hitters cause Sale can throw that baseball pretty damn hard. Valencia had to be scared to death when that pitch came sailing in on him. Sale deserves credit for getting even and plunking a hitter immediately. Surprised there wasn't a brawl. Maybe one in Game Two if KC hits Eaton leading off the game. This isn't the first time in 2014 in which Sale retaliated by hitting a Royals hitter. First time was early in the season in KC. I think there will be more of the same tomorrow, but a brawl is unlikely. Especially because they don't have Mike Aviles anymore.

Flowers' wife is giving birth to their second child, so he will probably miss a few games

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 21, 2014 -> 10:41 PM) Anyone remember when Tyler 1st started wearing those magical glasses?? Dude has doubled his double total in his last 7 games with 5, just 10 overall. I know it was shortly before the break, but I don't know the exact game/series. He certainly has been hitting better since.

Hard to tell in the other one but this may be his best this year (from last week):
