Boom! Gurriel must have heard me calling him mediocre when he has no power in the other thread. Doesn't that always happen. LOL And I'm good with it!

Looked up the definition of hitter....answer was Jose Altuve. A .347 average now.

We might never see another hitter like Altuve. Who are you right now?

So much for him not having much power. So imagine if he gets it back and you have the tough decision of who to play out of him, Abreu, and Gattis? That's WS depth. I agree that is WS depth. But last year we won the WS without Abreu. I know he is a good player but I am concerned about who it would take to get him in a trade. If it is some blocked guys that's fine. But if it is one of our main guys lurking then no deal.

This game could have significant implications for Runs Scored in June, and hence who gets kaboomed and who doesn't. Let's watch carefully.

Scored more runs in the 2nd then they did in the first 21 innings of this series.

[br We barely got by NY last year and they're even better this year. And don't think they won't improve with trades this summer. I don't want to trade all our top guys, but we could part with a few good prospects. Especially since a deal like that helps us for next year too.

Maybe give George the rest of the afternoon off to cool down a little.

Cole has still been extremely good this entire season. He has however been giving up a lot of walks and home runs recently.

This start for Hammel is reminding me of the kamikaze start James Shields made against us in Chicago back in April

This start for Hammel is reminding me of the kamikaze start James Shields made against us in Chicago back in April When looking at the COT's contracts on the White Sox, he is pulling in 21 mill this season. Talk about eating a contract at the end of a signing.
