Hate to beat a dead horse, but this exactly why I hate the Shields trade.

 

Bench is razor thin - we have nothing to call up. OFers like Coats, and Shuck...Avi.

 

What has this 5-9 hit in the last month? I'd be shocked if it's even .190.

 

They eat $15M to toss Danks, only to toss another $3M on Latos, take on $5M this year for Shields (and another 2/years $22M)....That's $23M THIS YEAR over a #5 that could get something able to hit weight in at least 5 spot for EVERY DAY.

 

Pathetic.

And Royals are great at home too. Hard to compete with that unless you have a similar home record.

 

But they're also 12 games under .500 on the road. Balances out.

 

If the Indians' fans get swept up in the euphoria of first place and the Cavs' championship and start to believe again in that organization, they will start to get a significant home field bounce.

 

They've always played well at home these last 4-5 years even without good attendance, fwiw.

 

 

Some prediction models have the Tigers over the Royals, and they're going to be 2 games clear of us as well (see 2nd WC thread).

Sox piss their pants at home and lose when crowd is over 28.000

Don't forget Rollins and Jacob Turner...

I certainly expect them to trade him. To Hahn/Ventura and the rest, OPS .700 from a vet >>>>>> OPS .650 from a young player with room to grow.

And trading for Bruce is just the kind of fool move I expect Hahn to make.

Not sure what kind of player he'll be, but I've liked what I've seen.

To sit him like this amongst this team of stiffs is just ridiculous.

 

I see Colton Wong is now playing CF. That's a concept that's just beyond the grasp of the White Sox.

I'd like to see him get more playing time at 2nd. His defense is much better and his bat is just as good. give the young kid the spot.

 

Or we could just trade him and watch him turn into a solid player like simien?

Why not bring jacob may up? atleast we would be able to keep eaton in RF and have a very good defensive CF. It's better than shuck or Coats.

Who'd have thought that Junior Guerra would be 4-1 as a starter with a 3.67 ERA?

 

Thompson is finally fading a bit with the Dodgers and Puig is back again, so his PT will decrease, but it's crazy how a change of environment will work wonders for some players and everything will click. Also helps when the organization you play for has 100% confidence (and patience) in you...where you can't lose your position after a week or two of bad at-bats.

 

Others, like Erik Johnson, he gone.

 

 

Tie Game again.

 

We're bad fans for being in the thread, though, because the White Sox WERE losing and now it's tied again.

Indians finished home record in June 11-0 must be nice.

 

That's what bother me about this team is after April they are only good for two in a row. It's been that way for some time.
