QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 07:13 PM) It's pretty clear the Sox offense was on a cold spell early in the year. Now they're hot. Hopefully it stays that way. It helps that we've faced some bad pitchers recently. In the last 30 days only Boston has scored more runs in the AL.

Offense has been killing it!

Yankees used their bullpen a lot against the Royals. Nice to see Severino already at 70 pitches.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:52 PM) Chris is getting hit around a little bit right now. Lots of solid contact so far. I wouldn't call that last hit solid contact. But I agree.

Nasty slider. Sorry rookie.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:46 PM) You want good contact out of the 2 spot, Sox don't exactly have a ton of those guys. I'd say Lawrie or AJax can both work better. Lawrie Ks a bit too much for my liking in that spot, but he's been hitting pretty damn well so far. I'm much more confident in his ability to hit a fastball right down the pipe than Rollins. Melky rarely strikes out. He has more walks than strikeouts.

Severino getting no calls on the corners. Also, it seems like his problem is his stuff has too much movement.

QUOTE (Scoots @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:42 PM) White sox have bases loaded every game it seems like Second most ABs with the bases loaded this year, only trailing the Cubs.

Severino has some nasty offspeed stuff, thankfully he can't spot any of it.

Great swing by Avila there.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:30 PM) Eaton misread it. But since he's a +13 defender so far this year, he makes up for it somehow. Up to +15 before the game today.

QUOTE (Scoots @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:20 PM) Yeah couldn't tell for sure but seemed like he wasn't exactly busting it down the line. Seemed like he should have beat that out, play took a long time to develop.

Was Melky walking to first?

QUOTE (ron883 @ May 13, 2016 -> 06:05 PM) Watch out. I made a similar topic and was shunned because of it. If by "similar", you mean "not at all similar", then sure.

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ May 13, 2016 -> 11:46 AM) Except that multiple teams will be trying to outbid one another for him, which means that the winner will likely overpay. The winner will also receive a comp pick for next year, after Reddick departs as a free agent in the winter. So, I'd imagine that Reddick would cost at least a late first-round prospect or a semi-decent ML-ready player (and possibly more than that). The team that trades for Reddick would not get a comp pick, it would be lost in the trade. But yes, Oakland would need something at least equal in value to the pick.

Over the past calendar year Eaton has been a 6 WAR player.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 11, 2016 -> 06:30 PM) 2 out RBI are pretty common. I agree, would it have been preferable if the Rangers scored all those runs with one out? Why is that better? Runs are runs.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 11, 2016 -> 06:33 PM) Ozzie ball was kind of a myth, they really just hit a lot of home runs after Frank got hurt. Yeah it was homeruns and pitching. Smallball really had nothing to do with it, they were one of the most homerun-dependent playoff teams of all-time.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 11, 2016 -> 06:21 PM) Marwin Gonzalez walk-off homer. Indians lose too, but in 16 innings. So after the series from hell we won't lose any ground in the division. I'll take it. Thanks Marwin!

God damn it Kratz.

C'mon Astros, win it here and then I'll feel a lot better about this series.

Come on Correa, walk it off.

Indians already on their 8th pitcher of the game.

Welp, at least we got one, right? Take 2/3 from the Yankees and come home 25-13.

Big pitch here
