I hope Sale is right on target today.

Not a good pitch selection by Flowers. Kinsler makes Sale pay.

I'll never understand how people think Flowers handles this staff well.

Victor Martinez...Professional hitter.

 

I want.

Please limit Sale's innings the rest of the way.

Sale was always due to start giving up more homers.

This game is already over

Good god. I haven't even turned it on, and it's 3-0 already? WTF.

SIGN VM TOP priority sign him in off season.

They've absolutely stopped competing. Hopefully getting some young blood in here in a few days will help out.

And it's a double-edged sword...on one hand, you'll take the losses because of the pick. On the other hand, if the Sox just mail it in like last year, what does that say about the leadership (or lack of leadership) of this team?

We're gonna give Sale 1-2 runs, if we're lucky. That being said, this game is over in the 1st inning.

Eaton is on a roll. Another base hit and he's hitting .312.

I think Eaton will be even better next year. Especially in the power department.

Hawk: Alexei is 7-54 lifetime against Scherzer. Check that, he's 11-40. Check that, he's 7-54.

The Tigers' pitchers try pickoff moves way too often. They deserved both of the pickoff errors this series.

could be a long day for the white sox, how has sale looked his last few starts, one of my friends thinks he maybe hurt, but he is also my same friend who thought alexie ramirez was on steriods.

Sale has gotten much worse since he tweaked his windup and starter throwing 96/97. I think those are the problems.

It doesn't appear we have any. For instance, the fat POS playing 1B today, messing around with the first guy to get a single. Maybe it's just me, but I don't like that stuff. Abreu basically has a non-stop conversation with anyone that speaks Spanish over there too.

That's just part of the game. Did you play baseball as a kid? Every time you're in the field and your friend is standing on the base closest to you, you guys chat.

His fastball command has been poor for about a month. He's been good enough to get away with it, but he's definitely not as crisp as he was earlier in the year.

I cannot STAND all of the grabass that goes on now. Two players can't stand next to each other with patting each other on the ass. It's bulls***.

 

The first base chat---yeah, that's going to happen. But a guy hits a double, and an infielder is yukking it up with the guy as he's throwing the ball back to the pitcher? Nah. Don't like it.

He has lost a fair amount of accuracy since he started throwing harder every game. Both of HRs were belt high strikes to good hitters, those will get hit hard every time no matter how hard they're thrown.

How come when Hawk uses old school stats to judge a player, he is a crazy old man who the game has passed by, but when Stone constantly praises pitchers on their W-L record, there is nothing similar?
