Cease looking good so far tonight in his fourth inning of work.

Collins bomb!

Charlotte and Birmingham lost game 1 of their double headers. I'm thinking Fulmer is out of gas. Hopefully he bounces next year like Adams and Guerrero did this year.

You can bet this isn't over. I'm sure the tigers have seen footage of the two cheap shots Sanchez took during the brawl. There was a point where Romaine had put his hand on Miggy's side for what appeared to be an effort to calm Miggy down after Miggy spoke with the ump so all looked cool between them. Sounds like Miggy was butthurt when Romaine told Miggy he wasn't f***ing talking to him. Too bad, so sad Miggy.

#100 for the time being, hell move up much more.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Aug 22, 2017 -> 08:26 AM) Get it together people. You're talking about a 22 year old with 1100 AB's in pro baseball. Yeah but that doesn't suit the instant gratification types. Some folks just don't have patience. I don't know about you but despite the defensive growing pains I'm having a blast watching these guys. They're having fun and fun to watch. The losing sucks but I think ya know what I mean.

Pin it!

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Aug 22, 2017 -> 10:41 AM) Exactly. Like what would he have to trade for him exactly? I bet he's there 1B next year or in a COF spot. From a Rockies standpoint, I'd ask for Giolito in a McMahon trade. Both close in age, rank and development. That's probably a much closer proposal than Cease for McMahon.

Not a bad idea. McMahon is ranked #63 on mlb pipeline. Cease is ranked #65, I'd make that swap but I doubt the Rockies would, probably would want Giolito in return. McMahon has had a good season so I'd guess his value is a bit higher than that #63 rank.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Aug 21, 2017 -> 04:25 PM) I saw on Chris Sale's MLB.com player profile that his nickname is now considered to be, "stickman". Lame. That is lame. A tall lanky guy like Sale would have been better off with something like Crooked Man. Condor is still the best and what I know him as.

After watching Sox pitching serve up HR Derby Saturday night, I'm not worried about the Sox winning too many games the rest of the way. Anyone who is unsure should look at the current rotation and bullpen again. Let's not forget the growing pains our young players are going through which sure hasn't been helping the pitching.

The Barons came back with a six spot to go on and win. Eloy 1-3 BB 2B

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 20, 2017 -> 02:39 PM) Yep tape delay Lol, should have known. Wasn't sure if it was Milb f***ing up like they did with two of today's starters.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 20, 2017 -> 03:50 PM) How many around the shift hits does Delmomico need for them to stop shifting so much? The Rangers scouting is running on dial-up speeds due to heat.

Pretty cool for the Rangers to put a congrats to Hawk on the their scoreboard. Got nice round of applause from the fans too.

Am I crazy or did I just see a commercial for tonight's Charlotte game at 7:00?

Griffin's mid sixties curve ball must feel like an eternity for hitters while they wait for it to get to home plate.

Kieboom with a HR off of Cease. Kanny down 2-1

Ha ha, WS scored a run off of two walks, an error and no hits. Take em anyway you can.

Right on. A few of us have been slacking lately so I thought I'd give SoxAce the day off.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20170820 Lehigh Valley @ Charlotte 4:05CT Fulmer listed as starter but that will change. Montgomery @ Birmingham 3:00CT Adams listed as the starter but that too will change since he pitched last night. Winston-Salem @ Potomac 12:05CT Valerio the starter. Kanny @ Hagerstown 1:05CT Cease the starter. GF @ Helena 2:05CT Henzman the starter. AZL cubs @ AZL Sox 9:00CT And that's your official 8/19/17 Chicago White Sox minor league game thread.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 09:35 PM) Dammit. Likely means I'm missing Giolito's start. That sucks. Just cancel what ever you have planned and explain Giolito is making his White Sox debut. They will understand.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 20, 2017 -> 07:09 AM) He is 25 years old, has a minor league track record of giving up runs and not striking many out. He helped the tank, but is horrible. He won't be on any contending team. Covey could provide help next year towards another high deaf pick in '19. Just kidding. I'm not interested in a Pirate style rebuild that takes a few decades.
