  1. Yup. I believe he wrote a book about that and never mentioned 'launch angle.'
  2. Nice swing there by Bobby.
  3. Mr Gibson was one mean hombre on the mound. And, like you pointed out, he had some power. The guy looked like he had 1% body fat.
  4. Ted Williams handled the shift quite well. He just hit it over their heads.
  5. There's your 1 run, Pivetta. Now go with it. Words Bob Gibson often heard when he pitched for the offensively challenged Cards.
  6. I thought a pop-up record for both teams was set last night, but I guess not.
  7. If one has to rest the SOX better players, doesn't it make more sense to rest them one at a time? Not questioning Cora because the SOX are in 1st place.
  8. Just rechecked the line-up. Make that blackhole 6-9.
  9. It better be with 2 of the SOX better hitters 'resting' and the black hole from 7-9.
  10. The best thing about this west coast trip is that it's only 6 games and not 9 or 10.
  11. The A's starter has very good stats.
  12. The last place the SOX should look for pitching help is their farm.
  13. Lack of foreign substance perhaps?
  14. Another early exit by the Yankems' Cole today. Here's hoping he achieves the same success with the Yankems as Stanton.
  15. With Andriese, unlike many relievers who will give the team a good performance one day and a not-so-good performance the next, the SOX know exactly what they're going to get, or more accurately, not going to get, when he's called from the pen. Hopefully, Bloom can accept that he made a mistake and remove this liability from the team.
  16. Moving Kike to 1st would be a waste of his excellent throwing arm. When Arroyo returns, Arroyo can play 2nd until he's injured again, Kike goes to CF, and Marwin and Dalbec can platoon at 1st.
  17. Based on the SOX history on the west coast and especially after this game, I would be happy if the SOX finish this short trip 3-3.
  18. Isn't that why Rose got banned?
  19. You can't win them all. That being said you shouldn't just give a game away either.
  20. You don't have to apologize when you're spot on.
  21. He can't. The SOX don't have Weber anymore.
  22. Sorry I brought up 2018.
  23. Just keep walking, Andriese. Right to the airport.
  24. Baseball allows players like Andriese to become millionaires no matter how bad they suck, while real people making minimum wage would be fired.
  25. What was I thinking? In the immortal words of William Bendix: "What a revolting development this is."
