Sandoval is capable of throwing 160 pitches…..before his arm literally falls off

Or his ERA getting to 160

I think he already surpassed that

[Bagwell Anderson]

Any status update on Houck?

3 DPs, 5 Ks and a pick-off have kept this game from being 10-0.

Can we capitalize?

THE SOX ARE IN TROUBLE. YES, I CAN CAPITALIZE.

I guess all I needed to do was ask.

I believe he's rehabbing in Portland.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Why question the chUMP when you can challenge?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No reason for the Angels to bring Detmers back out in the 7th.

Neither he nor Crochet will start this year. 
We are stuck watching Sandoval until the playoffs.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The two offensive stars for the Sox so far are Mono and Abreu for raising Detmers' pitch count.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

How long has it been since the AL has been this weak? This is a serious question.

Right now the Central leader is 7 games over.500 and the West leader is 2 games above.500.

[FredLynn]

Where’s the Mick?

[vegasbob]

And the ALE 3rd place team is 14-16 over depending on final tonight

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mono's gas tank has been empty for quite a while.

I remember when he was basically an automatic double.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mickey should have pinched hit for Mono before they could remove this RH.

[Bailey_Fox]

I’ve never been less confident in a hitter than I am for Connor Wong right now.

[FredLynn]

Gaspar should be hitting for Wong here

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wong does hit hard foul balls.

[Bailey_Fox]

Jesus Christ Wong.

It's the fair balls that are soft.

[FredLynn]

Poor managing. Monasterio should have been bunting and Gaspar should have PH for Wong

[Bailey_Fox]

I would rather have ANY other player on the roster hit instead of Connor Wong, I’m being completely genuine.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Major mistake not pinch-hitting Mickey for Mono. The RH Angels reliever would have had to face him. Brain fart by Chad.

Unfortunately, Sandoval is, at best, a #5 or 6 starter, and a waste of $20 million.

Mickey s/h pinched hit for Mono. If Mickey had pinched hit for Wong, the Angels' manager would have brought in a LH.

 

[Tedballgame]

Sox still have a chance to win this game.
