July 12, 20169 yr "justice" will be done for Jose when the White Sox score some damn runs when he pitches. /s Kappa
July 12, 20169 yr I would agree with the author this is the baseball gods taking care of Q. Very nice he made the team despite his team's pathetic support of him. Hope he gets to pitch in the game. I doubt he will, though. It'd be nice to have Ned go with Sale, then a righty, then Q third.

Yost has already said he plans to use five starters for the first five innings, with Quintana in the fifth slot.

July 12, 20169 yr QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 08:57 PM) And those announcers are moronic and sound stupid. Not really. Also, they talk about batting average, homers and RBIs. Sometimes OBP is listed on the screen but you rarely if ever hear an announcer say what a guy's on base percentage is. Sabes people are still considered like Trekkies, cultish.

I know you never let facts get in the way of a good arguement, but here's an article from 3 years ago talking about some announcers bringing in more advanced stats when they call the games. Link

The best announcing team in Chicago talks OBP and "sabes" all the time.

Link Robert Ford is the former Royals postgame show guy who is a big Sabes guy. I truly don't think other announcers dabble in Sabes at all. I mean they might mention SOME Sabes stat once a month. Royals announcers don't do it. Hawk would rather be slugged in the head with a bat than discuss Sabes stuff.
