flavum Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Giants down 2-1 after 5. Bumgarner was scratched with the flu. A SF win would cap a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Top 2 and I'm happy. The only reason being that I've never been a rabid fan and obsessively observed a draft with us picking above 3. The Rodon draft at 3 was the bomb digity and I wanna top it. For shizzle my nizzles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the Sox took advantage of a couple prospects that had helium (Aiken and Kolek) while Rodon's stock was fading and they seemed to understand that Rodon was simply fatigued. We obviously know what happened after that. As frustrating as the guy is, the dude is obviously a special talent. Just gotta hope that if he is as advertised, the Sox can re-sign him when the time comes. Williams was never able to deal with the Boras Corporation. Hahn can.

I remember it well and was alluding to that situation. In real time, it was electric. Wanna experience a top 2 pick now - preferably el numero uno.

flavum Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Thursday: Phillies won, Giants lost, Sox lost, Reds won 31 days left Team (Games left) - Sox Magic Number to have higher pick: 1. Phillies(29) - 33 2. Giants(26) - 29 3. White Sox(30) 4. Reds(28) - 26 5. A's(29) - 25 If the Sox somehow go 14-16, the Reds would have to go 9-19 to have a better pick. The Sox are getting the 2nd or 3rd pick. Big series next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 The rest of the schedule for the Sox looks tough besides Detroit and SF. Hopefully we lose those 2 series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox are getting the 2nd or 3rd pick. Big series next weekend. You've got that right. Sox and Giants both on track for 64 wins. Giants have a tougher schedule. Dropping 2 of 3 or all 3 by either team next weekend could very easily decide who gets #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 It doesn't suck the Sox hold the tiebreaker with the Giants. Simply put, if the Sox go 4-6 three times in a row, they'll have a really high pick next June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaDoc Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I think we are 3 games ahead of Detroit. After their dumps, they may be in this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Brandon Crawford is doing everything he can to give the Sox the 2nd pick. And as I type this, Pence just hit a 2 run triple. 5-2 Giants, bottom 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 If the Giants win, the White Sox will take back the #2 pick. The Phillies will still lead the 1st pick by 2.5 games... WE CAN DO THIS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 07:04 AM) Need to find him a guy who can frame that slider. Framing for those who believe in it probably doesn't affect a very high percentage of calls. Throwing it for a strike more often may get you the benefit of the doubt on close pitches more often from the ump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 10:14 PM) If the Giants win, the White Sox will take back the #2 pick. The Phillies will still lead the 1st pick by 2.5 games... WE CAN DO THIS! Seriously, stop counting games back and watch the win column. We have won 1 game more than the Phillies, 1 game fewer than the Giants. That's where we really sit. For whoever worried about the Tigers a moment ago, they have won 6 more games than us.
