If you're not going to share, don't dangle.
The important part is that we know that he knows.


I 100% read this as tongue in cheek, which is what I think he was going for. I mostly lurk, but I really appreciate what 2015 brings to the thread as well.

Robert blew their chance to get more. Terrible first-pitch half-swing at an outside pitch to pop up with a guy on third and less than two outs.

1-0 T4 but Kirby at least over 45 pitches.

Also fun -- on Cora.



Did anyone read this book? I just finished my last book and I'm looking for one.

Is it any good because that part has me definitely intrigued.
You want to read a book written by the guy who "broke" the baseball cheating scandal on the Astros about the cheating scandal?


Oh **** that was written by Drellich? Won't get a penny from me.
I love how the book cover says, "The Rise and Fall of the Houston Astros" and that it came out about 3 months after we won a championship. ****ing idiot.

This is super random but I have a spot open on my team in a Bocce ball league in Houston for this fall... if anyone wants to play, it's at Nettbar on Thursday nights.

Kopech removed after 4 because of some issue with his arm in warmups. Not sure that's the worst thing because he was probably a time bomb. Sox have to stop wasting scoring chances though.

That was strange watching live. He just air mailed that warm up pitch and was gone

as he was walking off the mound the inning before he was looking at his arm and trying to stretch it. Looked like he felt someting strange.

Fair. And that's another reason why I'm going to reel back on the info. I don't know why these things rub me the wrong way but they do.

On a completely unrelated note... I can't think of a worse team to rely on for a win than the White Sox yet here we are
There's no crying in baseball. Post or don't but it's going to be normal for you to get trolled if you do continue to post "insider info". Its just how it works on message boards.

Do now we have 3 1b men? I wonder if we will see Abreu and Singleton platoon and Diaz DH with Yordan in LF, Chas in CF.

If that back isnt right we will all know it on the first AB/swing

I actually feel good about him being back.

Maybe taking time off and getting the back right can get him back to more what's typical for him and he's refreshed and ready for a playoff push.

One can hope. But that makes too much sense.

Wow that was fast. My question is... if this was bothering him back in spring training, why didn't he take a couple weeks off sooner?

It's not how it should work on here with known entities. But some people just have to be a ****** I guess

I don't. A lingering back injury for months most likely isn't 100% after just 10 days. And that's without the doubt of taking a full cut at the plate or stretching for a play at first.

I don't mind and don't disagree, but I wish they'd have given him some rehab games. Singleton and Diaz are doing fine.

I wonder if Dusty gives Abreu an extra day, like he's said he does to most guys, or inserts him right away at 1B.

Do not get us started. We will let bygones be bygones and not linger on his past choices. Let's just hope he's healthy.

Dusty just makes up whatever he wants to say to justify whatever he feels like doing at the time. I wouldn't expect his rules to be consistent.

I bet with a lefty on the mound we don't see Singleton or Diaz, today. The question is whether we get Meyers or Dubon in CF (or Julks at all).

Huge HR by Trayce Thompson. 3-0 Sox in the 6th with Kirby about done.
