3 bad AB's after some momentum. geez

That is just the definition of this team this year.. Should have been another run easily with man on 2nd nobody out for the 1-2-3 hitters

I guess I now know why gamethreads focus on the negative. Avila is toast, since that conversation a double and threw out a guy. After the Saladino lovefest, 2 ks.

Who needs runs? We got this.

Sounds about right.

I think Saladino's AB would have been a lot different if Eaton did his job and got the runner over.

Sale is pulling a Roy Halladay. Sure, he can strike you out. But he's leaning towards quick, soft-contact. I like it.

10 pitch inning for Sale. Sitting at 85 pitches through 6.

Another efficient inning. Go 8 and then let Robertson finish it.

85 pitches. Unlikely he goes the distance.

Saladino just needs to calm down in his ABs. Short and sweet, that's all he needs.

When Chris Sale wants you to make weak contact, he makes you make weak contact. It's amazing how efficient he's been the past two starts. I'd like to see more Ks, but if he starts throwing 7-8 inning outings, I'm fine with it.

Yes, but the kiss of death is praising a player apparently. Although Avi and Danks have been able to beat the curse. Sale sucks. Let's see how that works.

If Sale gives them 8 innings and Robertson closes the door the bullpen should be pretty rejuvenated after Rodon's catastrophe.

Is it raining on the south side? Cubs game was delayed.

85 pitches. Unlikely he goes the distance.

Obviously Robertson for the 9th....who fills the gap today, you think?

 

 

Sale has had very few stressful pitches today.

Cubs are in St. Louis.

The Cubs are in STL, so unless the south side goes all the way down to Effingham now the Sox are probably fine.

Oops. Never mind.

Sale can go 110+ if he's feeling it, he'll go 8 full if he's cruising.

Duke?

Some reason i thought they were home. My bad.

I've been thinking of comps for Frazier, and I think 2006 Crede is an ideal/realistic upside.
