Reverand Bud Black brings his San Diego Padres to the Cell with Ian Kennedy (3-6, 3.59 ERA) to face Robin Ventura and his clutch Chicago White Sox with Johnny Danks (3-4, 4.90 ERA) on the mound.

 

The 1st pitch is at 7:10pm CT and is showing live on CSN Chicago (or MLB.TV for the out of towner like me.)

 

Let's hope that Johnny Danks can lead us to a victory and keep the 3 game winning streak going after the sweep of the Tribe.

 

Let's Go White Sox.

Go glangon, go!

So on mlb now , Brian Kenny is talking about the best defenders based on saber metrics and he said right now Johnny peralta has been the second best defense short stop in baseball. Better than alexei and Simmons ,Hardy etc ? Well if that's what the numbers say then ok then lol

Eaton cf, Beckham 2b, Conor 3b, Tank rf, Dunn 1b, Alexei ss, Semien dh, ADA lf, Nieto c, Danks p

 

Cabrera ss, Denorfia rf, TCQ dh, Headley 3b, Medica lf, Gyorko 2b, Alonso 1b, Maybin cf, Rivera c, Kennedy p

It's weird, but the advanced defensive metrics have ALWAYS liked Peralta. Might be one of those guys with better instincts than range.

Man, imagine how much better that lineup would look with Jose and Avisail in it.

CQ!

Hopefully we see the same Danks we saw last start

Gillaspie >> Headley

Conor should have had that

Good seeing Carlos again

Wow, way different stance for Carlos

No runs that is a plus.

Completely different.

Conor still on fire

Got no hitter out of the way.

Gillaspie >> Headley

Gillaspie >> Jesus Christ of Nazareth

Wow!

One thing I've noticed about Eaton, he's been great at getting to 3-ball counts, but hasn't been walking all that often

Sit down you are out.

Come on Alexei..

Gillaspie >> Jesus Christ of Nazareth

Really dude

Really dude

I mean Jesus saves yeah, but closers are overrated
