:wub:

Rodon was amazing. That's great to see.

Here's what will happen. We'll sweep the Angels, creating even more hype for the Sox/Cubs series. We'll sweep the Cubs, securing the Crosstown Cup and a 57-58 record. Then, we lose 8 in a row.

 

Good to see Rodon dominate and strike out great players (Trout, Pujols). Cool seeing Trayce get his first Hr

Shoutout to Melky, Petricka, and Robertson as well for good games.

Rodon , Thompson. Melky with 2 RBI on his 31st birthday . Sox with just 4 hits , Angels 5 but Angels in the midst of playing terribly on the road. It's not who you play but when you play them .

Thanks, Hawk.

 

But yes. We caught the Yankees in their best offensive spurt of the year, and on the other hand, played the Red Sox when they couldn't do anything right (I know they suck this year but they were in a bad stretch when we played them on the road).

Dare I say Flowers heating up? Looking pretty short & quick lately

God no... just f***ing stop.

Shout out to Abreu for keeping that Trout grounder in the infield.

He's 3 for his last 20.

 

So he is heating up!

He's 3 for his last 20.

 

Kinda think he's predicting a heat up based on how he looked tonight.

Nice win tonight.

While 0-3 is definitely better than his usual 0-4, I wouldn't quite call that heating up.

 

Predicting is all about the future son not the present

The roller coaster is back. Not that I'm complaining. I like when the Sox are in a positive trend. You just have to be ready for the negative trend after it maxes out at four wins in a row and 7 of 8.

As far as Flowers, he is having a lousy year numbers wise; only 29 RBIs and a horrific on base percentage entering tonight but he also had only 259 plate appearances. It's not like he's getting all of the at bats. Soto has a much better on base percentage in his 153 plate appearances. But he's RBI deficient as well with 19.

 

Let's get that sweep tomorrow! Get the easier part of the Cubs rotation this weekend. Angels go on to play the Royals after this .... Baltimore losing right now...

 

Shhhh... Just let me be excited for a night.

Phenomenal pitching.

16 HR and 48 RBI from our catchers isn't bad

Hasn't Sal Perez done that himself?

 

 

I was very, very psyched to get to see Trayce's home run.

Predicting is all about the future son not the present

that isn't predicting. that's throwing s*** at the wall

He was speaking in present tense though...

 

You can put a pot of cold water on a fire and say its heating up . Isn't hot presently but will be

Tough not to be pleased by the play of the young core of late - Avi, Saladino, Thompson, Rodon.

Now now the box score doesn't tell you crap about those laser beams Flowers hit at Featherstix. When was the last time Flowers hit two missile line drives in the same game? When's the last time he made contact in consecutive weeks?? He's red hot gents.

Hasn't Sal Perez done that himself?

As of last week, White Sox catchers have a higher WAR than KC catchers, and Soto had a higher WAR than Perez.

 

This was the firat time ever all 15 home teams won.
