  1. Well, once it's predetermined that's it. I don't think it's legal in real life to change something that's been predetermined. I'm pretty certain that in MLB when a manager makes a predetermination, he is not allowed to vary from it. Hold on, I was wrong. The rulebook states if a pitcher is throwing a no hitter thru the 4th inning and has tossed less than 60 pitches, the predetermination can be reversed. But the manager has the final say, because there's no penalty for over-managing.
  2. "It ain't ovah till it's ovah." The SOX aren't the only mediocre team in this PO race.
  3. I'd go with 6 runs. And even that wasn't good enough for that long stretch right after the ASB.
  4. I really thought that the SOX FO picking up Rich Hill would not only get the SOX to the PO's, but also to the WS. Oh, well, hard to be right all the time.
  5. One has to wonder what the SOX record would be now if Duran wasn't having such an exemplary season. He's easily been the SOX best player so far this season.
  6. I believe Rafaela is more comfortable playing CF. Next season when he returns to CF, it should affect his hitting in a positive way. Of course, this can only happen if Story doesn't injure himself before opening day.
  7. There's so much bad pitching (throwing) in MLB. What sets the SOX apart from the many teams with less than quality pitching is the SOX also have less than quality defense to go with it. That's a bad combination.
  8. Twinkies losing also. So it's a battle of mediocrity for the final PO spot.
  9. If the Tigers don't re-sign Skooby Doo, their fans should boycott the team. IMHO.
  10. Slow runners help make great infield defensive plays.
