Trayce Thompson has 17 homers this year. Why have I seen some posters here say that they "haven't lost all hope for him just yet?" It seems like he's fulfilling that potential quite well right now. Am I missing something? Poor K/BB ratio?

Quintana has a good mound presence

Hawk is the biggest BS'er in baseball, but he's spot on when he talks about Quintana's poise and mound presence.

That was a strike for clay!

For those of you wanting to be the 1st to say Quintana isn't a good pitcher I say keep waiting. The kid knows what he's doing.

stupid f***ing ump

Never mind. I see his AVG and OBP are barely over .235 and .305, respectively. Oops.

Q just keeps mowing them down... Great job so far. Now if we could get him some runs...

This is starting to remind me of that Dodgers game.

I was just thinking, "How are they going to lose this one late?".

 

 

Paulie's back baby.

is Konerko just a singles hitter now or something

Did Paulie look like he's making better swings that AB? Not on tv here...

Better than him not hitting at all.

He has really simplified his approach.

The power is there but outside of that, the K numbers are atrocious and he can barely hit worth his weight. When he does make solid contact good things usually happen though.

AJ's approach tonight - hack hack hack

Rios is allergic to walks.

That's his approach all the time.

Q's pitch count - 59

Few things make me want to hug a pitcher more than working over Aviles like that.

Still early but Q flirting with a complete game? Day off for the bullpen heading into Detroit would be grrreat.

3 runs. That's all I'm asking for.
