  1. The long layoff may have had a negative effect on Paxton. It can be a bigger problem to some pitchers more than others.
  2. With the SOX current rotation it's almost mandatory the SOX have to win when Bello and Paxton pitch.
  3. Cora: "OK fellas, we're down by 5 in the 4th. I'm putting the 'white flag' on the mound"
  4. One could argue he's the best hitter on this SOX team.
  5. I really like Turner, but there is one thing about him that angers me. He's 38 and not 33.
  6. Quick question; did you ever play baseball in your life? I mean real baseball, not the video game.
  7. Cubs actually didn't have the pitching advantage today. Paxton is having a bad game with the help of the SOX s***** defense. Btw, 'SOX s***** defense' is redundant.
  8. Walks plus bad defense=playing from behind.
  9. Defense? What's that? It's a bunch of wooden slats that surround a yard.
  10. Pitching is never very good; it's a team's dreadful offense that makes it seem so.
  11. Getting the Cubs' feed and learned that Masa hits the ball on the ground 56% of the time. The league average is 43%. However, he's slugging .489 and the league average is .422.
  12. Duran Masa Turner(DH) Devers Dugo Casas Arroyo Wong Kike(SS) He's baaaack. Don't understand how a manager, who stresses defense, inserts Kike at SS again. Oh, well, maybe Kike will shine today; who knows?
  13. Paxton vs Stroman(RH) The Cubs start another RH pitcher, which definitely favors the SOX. Stroman is having a very good season, but so was Hendricks before last night's game. Bello and Paxton have been a great 1-2 punch in the SOX rotation. Go SOX!
  14. Based on the tie breaker, the Yankems are officially now in last place in the AL East. I know it's still early, but I just enjoyed posting that.
  15. What's really hurt the MLB talent pool for quite a while now is the fact that African Americans just aren't that involved in baseball anymore.
  16. A few years ago there was an idea that the Rays could play half their home games in Tampa and the other half in Montreal. I don't believe that's part of the new plan.
  17. Seriously, how many more shite teams does MLB need? Isn't there enough already? Oh, well, money trumps quality.
  18. Good win. Sad Jansen had to be used, but, it is what it is.
  19. Part of that excess of talent I posted above.
  20. Looks like Montreal obtaining a MLB franchise is getting closer to a reality. With all the excess talent in MLB, why not?
  21. This season has caused injury paranoia for SOX fans.
  22. Yankems losing 6-2 in top of 8th. O's and Jays both won. Rays postponed.
  23. I actually notice. It's like Haley's Comet.
  24. Well, I believe he's getting paid league minimum.
  25. When there's no wind in Chicago, that harkens the end of the world.
