QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:20 PM) 2013 line drive rate: 24.7% 2014 line drive rate before tonight: 24.4% Which stat website do you use

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) Nice to see eaton and beckham with RBIs. I really like Conor right now. Sale is just magnificent. Helluva bunt by Flowers. I don't think I've ever seen him bunt I'm guessing you missed the bottom of the 1st.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:09 PM) Swapping the slider and changeup in terms of amount of use for Sale may have been for his long-term health, but it may have actually made him a better pitcher, considering his changeup has rated higher in run prevention. Small sample size, and there are other factors, but good point

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:06 PM) I swear to god every Sale start this season has had me looking at pitch count early thinking of a perfecto/no-no/complete game. Join the club

After a 20 pitch 1st inning, Sale has thrown just 15 more through 3 total innings. His line: 3.0 IP, 1 BB, 4 SO

Cowgill's AB was proof that Shoemaker has a bigger zone.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:01 PM) Reminds me of Soriano when he K's. I see more of a Mark Reynolds

Long break for Sale, let's hope he's unaffected

beckham!

there's your slump-breaker

QUOTE (1dog @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 09:48 PM) We don't. Please don't say stuff like that. Makes me sad. Isn't there a thread on how some want him back? I don't think I've ever opened it so I guess it might be sarcastic

Alright, solid job by Tyler

With Jones, our 4 righties would be him, Putnam, Webb, and Petricka. That would be lethal.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 09:46 PM) I thought that was confirmed. No? He's "hopeful" to return, nothing confirmed

There we go Alejandro

Speaking of Nate Jones, do you guys think he's out for the year

That Nate Jones commercial may have been the worst thing I've ever seen. These small car dealership commercials try to hard to be funny.

28 pitches thru 2, 3 strikeouts for Sale

back to back strikeouts

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 09:41 PM) That AB will drive a man to recreationally use heroin, I reckon. Nothing new for Josh.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 09:38 PM) He's hitting 30% better than league average. That said, I don't want him resigned. We're gonna need that DH slot with the amount of brutal defenders we have. League average is .251.

Didn't realize Viciedo got demoted to 7th. But no wonder, his average is way down from what it was

Why do we want Dunn re-signed? The guy's still under .235, and all he's doing is blocking younger players from coming up. If his contract expired last year, it'd be cool to have a Semien/Gillaspie 3B/DH split (screw the "DHs must hit home runs" rule).

I feel like this Sneakermaker or whatever gets a bigger zone

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 09:31 PM) Did Alexei think it was 2 outs or what? think he just double-clutched
