  1. Getting pitching from the SOX farm system is rarer than finding a pearl in an oyster.
  2. This would be a great time for Whitlock to renegotiate his contract.
  3. His approach at the plate is much better in that he's been more selective at what he's swinging at.
  4. It's tough for Cora having two DH's on his team.
  5. Never mind, I just checked. Devers becomes a FA after the 2023 season. He MUST be extended!
  6. Mr Moon, when does Devers' current contract expire?
  7. It does seem like we see at least one of those every game.
  8. Well, Ramirez is about 4 years older than Devers, so when Devers is 29, I'm pretty sure his WAR will be higher than 5.
  9. Interesting, Ramirez has a WAR of 5 while Devers has a WAR of 3.5.
  10. He'll be an important part of the BP next season. Typical of the SOX farm system when it comes to pitchers; Houck was drafted in 2017 and in that time in the SOX farm system he comes to the big show with 2 effective pitches-FB and slider. As a reliever he should be OK with those two weapons.
  11. In the golden age of baseball, which isn't coming back, pitchers would be fined for giving up 0-2 base hits.
  12. That was intentionally getting hit. Like how Cora made a big fuss about it. I guess Cora feels that if he gets thrown out of a game, the SOX have no chance of winning.
  13. Houck has great composure on the mound. He may lose his control, but he never loses his cool.
  14. A Nolan Ryan type no-hitter. 9 walks, no hits, 13K's and a pitch count of close to 200.
  15. That was supposed to be a curve ball, but it didn't curve.
  16. That's no straw man in center for Cleveland.
  17. At this point Whitlock will be a starter next season and Houck will be valuable in the pen.
  18. HoUCK is really pressing his LUCK.
  19. If Aruaz is injured, Shaw has 2nd base experience.
  20. Dalbec is pulling the ball, which is a good thing.
  21. DEVERS DEliVERS! 24 and the best player on the team.
  22. If both Kike and Renfroe had been available, are you 100% positive that JD would have only been benched for 1 game?
  23. Is Whit Merrifield the most underrated player in MLB? During the 2018-19 seasons he had a 31 game hitting streak. This season he's stolen 33 bases in a row. He has now played in over 430 consecutive games. All of these are KC Royals' records. Also, this season he has 67 RBI from the lead-off spot, which is 2nd in MLB.
