That lineup...wow

4/9 in the lineup were in AAA about a month ago

Maybe Skole can become our latest instant sensation ala Palkamania and Rondon.

The line can be “Take a Dip of Skole”

Let’s strive mightily to win 

Digging on Jose Jr. Keep it going. RHP Ricardo Pinto DFA. Never knew him. Came over from PHI two months ago. Welcome Matt Skole good health to Matt Davidson. 

Fuck sake this line up. Who the hell is Matt Skole? 

Ok. Let's go Sox, need games from Moncada / Abreu / Anderson for fantasy purposes.

When Adam Engel is batting 7th, you know things have gone terribly wrong.

A year ago, one could argue 8/9 should have been in AAA!

The Indians beat the Astros yesterday for a 2-2 series , this could be uncomfortable .

If you were paying attention in spring training Skole and Cordell were hitting really well. But in reality he hasn't shown much since being the Nationals Minor League player of the year in 2012 at high A ball. When he was 23 he tore his UCL and fractured a wrist in a collision at 1st base and he really hasn't done too well since then.  He's a power hitting lefty 1B /DH type who has a good eye but also K's a lot. He's 28 now and basically your typical AAA player.

He's hit much better in May for the Knights hitting .281 with 5 HR's and an .858 OPS. His splits are pretty equal against lefties and righties.

I'm shocked they got the benefit of a call from New York. 

Lol@ the guys watching and posting about the Cubs game in the Sox game thread.

Those 1st 3 Indian hitters are all having great seasons ( Lindor, Brantly and Ramirez ). Covey nice inning.

Skole!

Nice first swing by Skole

It's gotta feel good to get that first Major League hit out of the way quickly. Now he can relax. No matter what happens with your next 3 AB's, you got that knock and can feel good.

Is it me or covey have a lil more giddy up on the fastball lately
