  1. OTOH, Hamilton should only be in the line-up in the unlikely event of a SOX player getting injured.
  2. Don't ruin the anticipation by having Grissom play.
  3. One thing one can't take away from Bobby D is his ability to catch high or wide throws to 1st base.
  4. The Giants' catcher must be completely surprised when the thrower on the mound actually hits the target. This Harrison guy perfectly exemplifies the difference between pitching and throwing.
  5. This chUMP is definitely not a pitcher's chUMP, but, at least, he's consistent.
  6. Zach is Short on offense, but I wonder if he's a good bunter?
  7. I'm still a firm believer that the #24 should have been retired when Dewey retired. Unbelievable.
  8. The Giants' thrower on the mound is at 93-94mph; SOX are swinging and missing as if his pitches were at 98-99mph.
  9. Cooper, Smith and now Short were all acquired for cash considerations, which is obviously a lot less risky than trading prospects.
  10. To make room for utility fielder Short the SOX optioned Valdez to WOO. Short can play every position except catcher and pitcher, but can't hit a lick. Short was acquired from the Mets for cash considerations. He was DFA'd by the Mets to make room for J.D. Martinez. I thought the SOX would option Hamilton, but it appears they kept Hamilton because he can also play SS and he's faster on the bases (PR). Good luck to Valdez; he had a big hit yesterday and had made some very good defensive plays at 2nd of late.
  11. Well, Vegas, you gotta shot today to get your second 5 game winning streak of the season. Everyone here wishes you luck.
  12. All 3 have been great bang for the buck. The SOX had a previous Crawford who was a terrible bang for the buck.
  13. Very good start by Kutter. 2 runs in 7 innings, but, unfortunately, his ERA goes up.
  14. "Who's on 1st?" "Who's the 1st baseman along with what, where and when."
  15. No matter what you would have said in March I'd still say "you are crazy." Just like the rest of us.
  16. Wong better be good. The SOX traded Betts for him.
  17. It took 2 first basemen to replace Bobby Dee.
  18. Obviously, clowns are not limited to circuses. Moreno probably also thought that Ohtani would commit seppuka if he had a bad season.
  19. Abreu has been possessed by Dewey Evans. Can one be possessed by a living person?
