July 29, 201510 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:30 PM) Man, wasn't that an amazing bomb? Where'd they get this Kang guy. Wish the Sox had him. Signed as a FA out of South Korea, not a very expensive contract. It would have been a perfect move for the White Sox to sign him for 3B/SS, but they preferred Gillaspie/Beckham/Bonifacio. There sure were a lot of doubters who felt Kang wouldn't be able to hold his own offensively in the big leagues, and he's put himself into the Top 3-5 of the NL Rookie of the Year consideration.

Yep, he would've been great. There may be another Korean 3B coming over, possibly - can't remember the name - hope we're scouting them.
July 29, 201510 yr Suddenly the Sox and Rays have a big series against each other next week. Should be: Odorizzi vs Quintana Archer vs Sale Ramirez vs Rodon Edited July 29, 201510 yr by flavum

July 29, 201510 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 09:24 PM) Cool. Perkins not a lockdown reliever these days. Hitters 9 for their last 20 against him. Don't forget Twins/Pirates early game tmrw, Erwin Santana and Liriano against his former team. And just announced, Thursday night will be JA Happ (Mariners) against Phil Hughes, the last game before trade deadline.

July 29, 201510 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 12:28 PM) Rays up on Tigers 1-0, bottom 6 Twins no score after 1 We want the Tigers to win this one, right?

July 29, 201510 yr We want the Tigers to win this one, right? I think so. First of all, the Tigers are behind the Rays in the standings. Secondly, the Sox get more shots at the Tigers to take them down themselves.
July 29, 201510 yr Author QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 12:36 PM) We want the Tigers to win this one, right? The way I look at is, we want anybody above us in the standings to lose. Don't worry about anyone behind us right now. 2-1 DET in the 7th
July 29, 201510 yr I hope the Tigers win, so they buy and continue to suck after that. We win tonight and gain a game on the Rays in WC
