GT 5/29: White Sox (21-25) vs. Astros (30-18)

[RockRaines]

Remember two years ago when I reported the FO wanted Webb as the next closer?

 

Maybe it's finally happening!!!!!

[RockRaines]

I'm ready

Go.

He is really good if he can throw strikes. Bur he gets like the big kid in little,league that throws gas but walks everybody and throws wild pitches.

[Feeky Magee]

Noesi was the other option?

Putnam?

[fathom]

If Sanchez is going to swing first pitch, needs to do something more than a 20 hopper to 2nd. I still wonder if we see Davidson at 3rd and Beckham at 2nd in a month or so.

Hate to say I told u so, but Beckham HAS to be in this starting lineup! Beckham is so much better than the hitless wonders we've had at 2B. Congrats on the deep blast! Tie game.

[caulfield12]

Flowers under the Mendoza Line now.

It feels like forever ago when I got that info.

Make him player/coach like Don Kessinger....with Paulie as the bench coach. Or Moises Sierra.

Flowers under the Mendoza Line now.

I mean. What makes him a major league catcher? He does nothing well.

 

Chris Widger was better.

Abreu hurt...yuck. Didn't look very healthy on that chopper over his head in the 6th.

[caulfield12]

Abreu hurt?

 

Flowers at 1b?

 

This should be interesting.

[Balta1701]

Great. We can totally spare the bat.

Abreu must be hurt but no trainers over by him. Very strange.

[Balta1701]

The good news is, no matter how bad it actually is, we can be assured Abreu will be in the lineup the next 3 days.

[RockRaines]

Hurt mentally maybe.

[RockRaines]

Would Flowers be the worst offensive 1B in the entire league?

[fathom]

This seems very odd that Webb is still in.

[caulfield12]

Maybe we should draft Tucker's brother...

[greg775]

Coaches can't make up for the poor talent on the field no matter how good they are.

 

The GM put great talent on the field and there's no way anyone can question the job this GM did putting this team together.

 

How is that unclear to you?

I disagree with your second paragraph. GM hit the jackpot with Robertson and Beckham and maybe Duke. Verdict not so positive on Melky and LaRoche and Boni. Many on here know I despised Dunn but I see little difference between he and LaRoche. Dunn actually might be, gulp, better, if he signed on for one year at 2 mill a year.

Him or 46 year old Raul Ibanez.

 

Julio Franco can still outhim in Japan.

Or bring back Kessinger right now. He's still allive and may want to redeem himself.

 

p.s. Lexi loves that spin; worked that time. Nice play ss.

[fathom]

finger issue for Abreu it appears. probably injured it on that blooper earlier in the game.

[RockRaines]

Carter, part of the all KW team.
