Mike Shirley? If he has any siblings, hire them, too. He has done a very good job with the draft the last couple of years. 

Also for the record, I don't know anything about him. I just thought it was funny they brought up how he was hired, especially with our recent hiring history.

No this is Mike Shirley, the guy in the booth right now. He's been with the Sox forever but he said he was "lucky" that he got hired, he was friends with someone in the front office. 

Ah, I stopped watching the games a week OK or so, just come here to BS with you guys for comic relief. All the guys in the FO are clowns, they are all JR hires after all.

He could have just lied and said it was an extensive interview process. Read the room, Shirley!

It's like these guys are just allergic to getting runs in from scoring position. 

it really is a good changeup

There's your run, Drew. Hold 'em.

Have you tried the Goose Island Tropical Beer Hug? It's an Imperial IPA, like the Voodoo Ranger, but isn't syrupy at all. Much better brew imo. 

nice play lenyn

Drew Thorpe is an absolute joy to watch pitch.

8 swinging strikes in 5 innings. He's missing enough bats. 

What a cool day for Thorpes grandpa

Thorpe seems like one of those guys that will have mostly good starts and a few where he'll get absolutely lit up, and that is if everything goes right. A right handed Buehrle. (obviously not as many innings) 

EDIT: Spoke too soon.

s%*# I jinxed it

Still a QS. 1 run deficit will be hard to overcome tho

One mistake but still a quality start. Well done Drew.

It's fine. He's given up 2 over 6IP. He's in his 4th big league start.
