Josimar Cousin does not look all that great.

I think it could go either way. Similar to Eder, at times his command jumps. If he throws strikes, he has the stuff to be a starter. If he doesn't, he could be good in the pen. He has been very good this year, so I'd say it's trending in the right direction.

Ky Bush done. 6IP 6H 3R 3ER 1bb 6K. The hits were mostly bunched. He pitched better than that line indicates.

Schultz is out of the game 3.1 2H 2R 0ER 1BB 6K. Sloppy play by the Dash, including 2WP by their reliever hurt.

2 more Ks for Schultz in the 3rd. Weak grounder for the other out.

Schultz in the second was much better. 2K's.

Schultz labored in the first. K, HBP, error on Gonzalez, walk. Then a K and a ground out to get out of it.

I think this game is gonna be over before you get to the car.

Leone hurt himself on ball 4.

I don't have anything against the guy as a human being when I say, hopefully this is the end of Leone's White Sox career.

Why would anyone voluntarily put Dominic Leone in to pitch the 8th of a tie game?

Eh, I think he took a shot on sorting through some guys. Lopez, Soroka, and Shewmake kinda suck. The jury is out on Shuster and Gowens, but it was probably worth it. I mean any 40 man crunch is a short-term problem. Half their roster is gonna be out of baseball in a year.

Shewmake is making whatever decision the Sox are soon going to have to make on him very, very easy.

I was in that camp, but he was such a menace on defense that he was eventually gonna run into somebody. Add to it that Pedro hates the young guys, I can understand why they might want to go with a clean slate. That said, it is hard to imagine Ramos hitting right away. He has been in-between for most of the year. Hopefully, his current hot streak indicates he's found his approach and is going to stick with it.

This is so bad for my favorite team: The Birmingham Barons. The Sox are a lost cause. Sign Rance Mulliniks and be done with it.

The only thing we know for sure is it cannot be Dominic Leone. He has shown them nothing in Spring or in April and yet... Leone must have a drawer full of damning stuff on the entire management structure.

Gonzalez out on an absolute bullet to the first baseman. Continue to be encouraged.

Schultz is done. Shane Murphy makes his season debut in relief.

Gonzalez 2-2 2b, 1b

Grifol is "steady." The Sox under him have sucked in cold weather, hot weather, earl in the season, late in the season. Young players have sucked, old players have sucked. teady as they come.

Sox win 3 of 4 and Kanny had the tying and go ahead runs on in the ninth. There is a lot of pitching in the system, so they are in most every game. It is a refreshing change from the last few years. Maybe after the draft and ACL season ends, they will be able to get rid of the useless 35+ veterans and mix in some actual prospects.

Eder with a nice night 7IP 4H 2R 2ER 2bb 9k.

Pham is startin in cf. The of defense is going to be historic.

Please collect all the washed up and never were 30+ year old outfielders. Forget Birmingham being the future of the Sox. I bet they could beat the mlb team is a 7 game series now.
