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

[fathom]

Wow, filthy sliders by Webb!

[Dick Allen]

Webb makes Carter look silly.

[Buehrle>Wood]

Looked very very generous. I'll take it

[fathom]

Well, if Abreu's out tomorrow, hopefully they can DH Avi

[RockRaines]

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

"Injured"

[Dunt]

Daniel Webb looks GOOD

[RockRaines]

Wow, filthy sliders by Webb!

That's the guy they thought could close full time.

[Dick Allen]

Well, if Abreu's out tomorrow, hopefully they can DH Avi

Supposedly Avi is playing tomorrow regardless.

[fathom]

Eaton with a really strange AB.

[caulfield12]

Guess we don't know how much the personal issues affected Webb last year with his mother's passing.

[Buehrle>Wood]

Didn't realize gregerson went to xavs

[RockRaines]

Supposedly Avi is playing tomorrow regardless.

Avi is the type of guy that will fight you if you mention the DL. I still think he needs more time off from what I hear. The kid is so hungry.

[RockRaines]

He's had arm issues as well.

[fathom]

Looks like it hit the ground

[Balta1701]

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.

That was the point Greg. You have to agree with one of those 2 sentences because they contradict each other. If the GM put plenty of talent on the field then for them to all be this bad then the coaches did a terrible job. If the Coaches did a fine job, then the GM spent $50 million to put a terrible team on the field.

And this organization has proven they listen more to the player than to the doctor, at least with position players

[Balta1701]

Abreu will play, this management has convinced me that's how they work. Play until its torn.

[fathom]

Seems like a ton of ground outs to 1st tonight

Good point. I don't dispute you know your baseball, I just don't always agree with you.

[caulfield12]

Perkins just gave up two run homer to teammate of last season Collabelo in the top of the 9th. Ouch.

 

4-1 lead now 6-4 deficit, time in first might be short-lived.

I don't mind it with him. Look at his recovery last year. I posted that I heard he was coming back and he was right there. Guy is an animal. Transformed his body in the offseason too. We need dedication like that.

[Balta1701]

Good point. I don't dispute you know your baseball, I just don't always agree with you.

Basically...this season continues like this, either the GM or the coaching staff should fall on their sword. I won't complain about either, I won't complain about both, but someone f***ed up seriously.

[greg775]

I'm not in the mood for a walkoff loss. But I fear one is coming cause Sox offense is so challenged.

[greg775]

Cmon Sox, battle.

Let's win a game tonight. Man on first.

And it's Abreu-less now on top of that.
