vs. WHITE SOX, 6/15

[Il BuonO]

Abreu is a good hitter, not easily fooled.

He might not make it through 5 IP at this rate.

That would be considered a QS for our starters.

That's a good observation but his CH is really the pitch he needs. It's become a more dominant secondary over the last few seasons. Always has had better command of it compared to the CU.

Certainly needs all 3. The change has looked closer to being effective from games I've watched (fortunately did not watch last week's massacre). Or at least he'll throw it more. The curve has looked pretty far off.

That would be considered a QS for out starters. 

At least if they give up fewer than 5 runs.

I'd take 5 innings today. Hopefully less than 2 ERs.

He did.

I kinda wish Chris would ditch the slider/cutter. 

[O's84]

Adam no.

[O's84]

Our hitters are swinging at things way out of the zone.  What else is new?

66 pitches not finished 3 yet ...... whew ...... same old story.

The same old story would have the White Sox with 6 or 7 runs on the board, and Tilman already out of the game.

What the hell happened to Manny Machado?

Abducted by aliens and this nothing but a far inferior clone?

Blast off.
