Do the White Sox have too many talented outfielders? Where would Eloy even play?

Catcher!

That's Heady Lamarr.

Don’t understand having Engel lead you feel and not one bunt attempt for a hit.

Speaking of LaMarre...could he pass Delmonico, Avi and Palka simply with "plus defense" and a 700-725ish OPS?

Probably not, simply due to the fact you shouldn't have Engel and LaMarre in the same OF.

No. Anymore questions?

still plenty of time for Ricky to put Minaya in.

If I was the New York Yankees, I pray for this series to be over. We have been super annoying for them.

This is the exact type of series against say a bad royals club in 2010 that would have soxtalk rant and rave for about 10 pages about how garbage everything is and how everyone needs to go

Eloy will be here next season and Lamarre probably won't.. enjoy him for now.

Lamarre is 30 and not good. Enjoy this game, but don't get fooled.

No shit guys

For some reason, thought LaMarre was 26/27ish.

Oh, well.  On other hand, nobody (in the world) thought Jose Martinez would be a "stud" 1B if you go back a decade ago when he was experiencing all kinds of injury problems in the Sox minor league system.

Well, yeah. They've done a fantastic job of making us look like we don't suck.

Lopez will go 7, Minaya gets the 8th and 9th (and coughs up the lead), meanwhile Burr and Vieira collect so much dust just sitting down for most of 8 days that they become unrecognizable

And half of Soxtalk is pissed about it hurting draft position.

You take that back right now!

Or Covey.

We've now entered the section of the game where the starter's ERA will balloon after beginning the inning with a batter or two and then being pulled for a AAAA bullpen replacement.

Still at 96-97 mph at around 100 pitches.

Will this franchise ever get a break with regards to a ball hitting the dirt before being caught?

Hopefully they Google it and them watch the greatest movie of all time. 

Yankees really messed up not upgrading their first base position at the deadline

"Why would they trade for Abreu when they have Greg Bird??"

Granted, Abreu is on the DL right now, but the idea that Bird isn't worth upgrading was funny to me 

Hey nice fastball!

This is the story of Dr. Lopez and Mr. Jiiiiiiive

Just now, Jose Abreu said:

They really could have used Murphy falling through waivers 

Some pretty nice pitching here.

I think we've settled the question of whether Lopez belongs in the rotation or not...

Pretty amazing to hit over .300 with a 714 OPS (Torreyes).

Great outing Reynaldo. Now please use Burr or Vieira instead of Minaya or Gomez, for once
