[Arismendy Mota]

Yeah I know he's a little bit old for the league, but still impressive numbers nonetheless. Also, wasn't DLS 21 when he had his great season?

 

Edit: Nevermind, he was 20.

[Arismendy Mota]

Wow. Lost in the Silverio hype, this guy has put up some nice numbers: 7-2, 1.81 ERA, 89 IP, 67 hits, 26 runs (19 ER), 19 BB, 80 K, 0 HR, 0.96 WHIP.

[8/24 Games]

Peavy with 51 pitches thru 3 innings.

[Anyone else here scared of these next 20 up and coming games?]

Not scared at all.

 

If they want to make the playoffs, aren't these the same type of teams they would have to face anyway? Besides, the Sox seem to play up to the level of their competition, so maybe they come in focused & ready. Though it would be nice to play that way vs. some of the also-rans as well.

[8/23 Games]

16 of Phegley's 35 hits have been for extra bases (7 2B, 9 HR). His 3/5 performance moves him up from .224 to .236.

[2009 AL Central Thread]

Boo. Nathan blows the save in the 9th, but Soria blows it in the 10th and the Twins win 5-4. However, seeing that Nathan needed almost 55 pitches to get through those last 2 innings, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he won't be available tomorrow.

[8/21 games]

..... Your fired. Game 2 was PPD. They finished Game 1.

 

What can I say? The Sox had enough losing teams tonight, I didn't want to put another one on there.

[8/21 games]

Charlotte beat Durham 4-3

 

Fields went yard, Flowers with a double in the game. Also Peavy pushed back a day to Monday.

 

B-ham loses game 1 of DH

 

But winning the 2nd game 4-0

 

Viciedo in the lineup and currently 1/2.

 

Winston-Salem game was ppd.

 

Kanny wins big 10-4

 

Mitchell 2-4 with a double, KW Jr & Short with homers

 

Bristol gets destroyed 9-0

 

Holmberg lit up.

 

Great Falls at Idaho Falls

[Mark Buehrle's changeup voted best in the American League]

Jamie Shields' change has to be up their too.

 

Ranked 2nd behind Buehrle's. Jered Weaver was 3rd.

[8/20 Games]

Shoemaker 2/2 with a walk & double for Bristol. Average at .366.

[Mark Buehrle's changeup voted best in the American League]

This kind of surprises me. Arod? Josh Hamilton? Ichiro?

 

Ichiro was voted best bunter, and 2nd best hitter (Mauer). Arod was 2nd in overall power (Morneau).

[Mark Buehrle's changeup voted best in the American League]

Baseball America polled the managers of the American League, and they tabbed Buehrle's changeup the best. He was voted 2nd best control artist (behind Halladay), & 2nd best pickoff move (behind Pettitte). Jim Thome was voted 3rd best in strike-zone judgement (behind Abreu & Mauer).

[Dexter Carter's 1st Start in Fort Wayne]

YIKES! Dex's line tonight: 0.1P, 8 runs, 6 hits, 1 BB, 1 K.

 

Also looks like Poreda is scuffling a bit too since the trade. Yesterday's start vs. Iowa: 5 IP, 3 runs (2 ER), 6 hits, 3 BB, 4 K's, 87 pitches (53 strikes).

[8/19 Games]

Shelby with a nice 3/4 game in the 2nd game of the DH for B-Ham.

 

Although is Viciedo banged up? He didn't play in either game.

[8/19 Games]

There's that other guy in Charlotte's rotation who's a little more likely to take that SP opening.

 

Good point. Torres is due for another crack at the rotation.

[8/19 Games]

Gilmore 1/3 with an RBI double. After the horrififc first half of the year, he's slowly getting that average up. Now at .261. Now he's gotta show the power that was mentioned when he came in the Javy deal.

[8/19 Games]

Arrgh. Hudson done after 5 innings. He's gotta get that pitch count down! 92 pitches thru 5 innings is Contreras-like. Still, 1 run, 2 BB, 4 K's is a decent night's work. But that pitch count is gonna get him.

[A White Sox Winner]

Aren't we 3-0 vs. Greinke now? f***ing unreal.

 

I think 2-2. I know Greinke beat them on the 3rd game of the year, and the first time the Sox went to KC, but I'm not sure beyond that.

[A White Sox Winner]

Whew! Needed that one.

 

Props to JC.

 

CQ, Alex, & The One with homers!

[GAMETHREAD:Chicago White Sox(61-59) vs Kansas City Royals(47-72) 1:05]

Well that was nice.

[GAMETHREAD:Chicago White Sox(61-59) vs Kansas City Royals(47-72) 1:05]

Not related to today's game, but Charlotte's starter tonight is listed as TBD. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't today Hudson's day to throw?

 

Or I could be looking too much into this.
