Jose Abreu

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 12:16 AM) This is an absolute must win game if the Sox want to stay in this thing. Our ace against their ace. Sale better have his good stuff. A loss pretty much means we are done IMO. Feel free to post your predictions for each pitcher. I'm going to guess: Sale - 7.1 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 11 K Archer - 7 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 9 K The Sox win 3-2 and Sale gets his 10th win of the season. I'll say: Sale- 6.1 IP, 9 H, 4 R (3 ER), 0 BB, 7 K Archer- 8 IP, 5 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, 10 K Sox lose 5-3 despite an Abreu 3-run HR.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 12:57 AM) It's the highest level of blasphemy to include the above (bolded) combination of names in one sentence- not unlike mentioning Lord Voldemort by name in Harry Potter. It really is blasphemous- he forgot all about my man Ryan Bukvich!

I still think it's Opening Day. We all had such high hopes, coming in with all the offseason moves... we were at least expecting a close game, but what was the score, 11-0 or something? Just crushed Soxtalk's spirits, more than today did

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:27 PM) He just cost the White Sox any chance of getting the wild card. He MUST be fired. I mean if he uses 1/10th of his brainpower he does not send Lexi there. He just has to go. Don't get me wrong, I know it was a terrible move and I think he should be fired, not just for this but for all of his horrendous decisions this year. But we're the White Sox. We won't fire him.

Opening Day is still the worst for me.

Let's be real... McEwing won't/shouldnt' be fired over this.

I miss Jeff Cox

Sanchize has had many clutch hits this year. One came a couple innings ago, there was the bases clearing triple at Detroit, etc... let's see if he can do it again

wow...

PH Trayce, let him steal the show lol

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) He has been really bad at his GM job QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:11 PM) I really disagree with that. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=95864

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:10 PM) With Betances and Miller already there? To be fair, they were about to trade for Kimbrel

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 09:54 PM) Amazing how many bad relievers the Sox have had the last several seasons. Can somebody make a list of all our bad relievers and rank them lousy to pathetic? Belisario is definitely #1

Sanchize!

LaRoche vs LHP! Yay!

Forgive me if this has been said, but Jose Abreu sure loves hitting at home vs Tampa Bay.

Eaton

Signing him to a big, long-term contract could kill our future lineup. Especially if he performs the way he has this year. I'll pass.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 12m12 minutes ago Melky Cabrera at same time Jose Abreu and Adam Eaton shared player of week honors hit: .483/.516/.828 w/ HR and 8 RBIs in 31 PAs. #WhiteSox

Shocked that Melky hasn't won one of these.

Chicago White Sox ‏@whitesox 45s45 seconds ago White Sox have recalled outfielder Trayce Thompson from @KnightsBaseball.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 2, 2015 -> 09:54 PM) KC has had problems with Sox, Indians, A's, Blue Jays. They are too cocky. Don't forget the Angels! And "too cocky" is quite the understatement

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 2, 2015 -> 06:19 PM) The infamous Civic Day. http://www.officeholidays.com/countries/canada/civic_day.php From reading that book about the two guys who go to thirty stadiums in thirty days, it was Canada Day that was the hardest to acqcuire tickets for... The last time they had a home game on this holiday, they didn't even draw 25,000 for a Roy Halladay start in 2008 when the team was 56-56. Civic Day? If I didn't click the link, I'd have thought that Canadians have a day dedicated to Honda Civics.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 2, 2015 -> 06:34 PM) Donaldson always crowds the plate...should they just give him the whole inner half for fear of upsetting him? No, but intentionally throwing at him 3 times isn't necessary. Working inside is one thing, throwing at a guy's face multiple times is another.
