QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:34 PM) The Red Sox announcers wondering what's up with the stir the pot thing Melky's doing...he's kind of taken that thing over from Eaton and Beckham and made it his own. Apparently, the Blue Jays have a similar tradition of sorts. I thought it was Eaton and Sanchez? Either way, someone should tell them what it is

Melky Cabrera has increased his average from .236 to .279 since June 20th.

"First 5,000 girls ages 12 and under will receive..." Don't think we'll get more than 5k girls

Damn Melky! 3-3

Red Sox hitters could use this:

9 pitches, 6 outs

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:29 PM) We have one in the dugout, does that count? Doesn't seem Vincent Van Gogh has had the positive impact KW envisioned...although he has made Avisail an aggressive albeit ineffective basestealer. It would be nice if Eaton had Avi's attitude in that regard. Vincent Van Gogh

7 pitches, 5 outs in the last 1.2 IP

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:23 PM) Who comes in for Bonifacio next time he's up to hit? Shuck? I'd say Shuck. They might do Flowers since it's a LHP. Or Sanchez.

That was a really quick half inning

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:19 PM) Bonifacio is the DH tonight. They can pinch hit for him in his next appearance but I think the pitcher takes that spot afterward. Nope, that's only if you move the DH to the field.

Hope he's ok, that looked painful

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:15 PM) It is why you, I and others said you had to stay patient with him. Their was a history of success their and the eye test didn't see any noticeable fall-out in terms of his skills. He is regressing back to the mean (in this case, a very good thing). I presume we'd see the same with LaRoche (with slight decline due to normal aging), however, that might be impacted by his health as I think he's hurting. We know his pride is hurting, based on his earlier quote!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:11 PM) 6 games in a row with at least 2 hits for Melky. Also 8 straight games with an RBI

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 07:11 PM) Cabrera 14 for his last 24.... .583 En fuego. Está quemando!

Papa John's from April-mid July was probably thrilled with their 5 runs, half off promotion since we probably only got 5 runs like 5 times up to that point. But now, they're probably regretting it and wondering if they can raise it to 10

Chuck Garfien ‏@ChuckGarfien 47s47 seconds ago Coming into tonight, Abreu, Cabrera, Bonifacio, and Soto were a combined 0-12 vs. Wade Miley with 6 strikeouts. They went 4-4 in 1st inning.

5-2.

The White Sox have scored 15 runs in 10 innings so far without LaRoche.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 06:28 PM) A 14 inning World Series game thread didn't get 75 pages. *at 50 posts per page Yeah, but this site probably had 1/4 the members it has now.

Tom Fornelli ‏@TomFornelli 12m12 minutes ago The White Sox have scored 11.7% of their total runs on the season in the last 5+ games.

First pitch delayed 10 mins due to Pedro Martinez ceremony. Expected this.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:49 PM) What are going to do when Rodon hits his innings? Does he have a hard limit?

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:47 PM) @ChrisCotillo: David DeJesus also traded to Angels. What the hell, they have 6 f***ing outfielders now... unless this is a sarcastic post lol

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 28, 2015 -> 05:45 PM) Don't understand why they needed Murphy and Victorino. Murphy is a nice upgrade over Matt Joyce (and Victorino for that matter). Because overkill
