Glad I missed nothing today...

This is the biggest whaa  whaa whaa.. end to a season. It's not even a dramatic collapse its a peter out to nothing collapse..

Here we go.  Sox get a 2nd run so we can get our only run in the 9th.

I’ve been busy all day, but I’m on board with signing or trading for an all star quality bat under the right circumstances.

Short term contract for a slugger is worth considering if Elias is allowed to increase payroll. 

Too many redundant RHH hackers. Few quality at bats.

Yeah, he walks the guy before you so you make a swing on a pitch a foot inside. This is the difference between guys like Hays who came up with no swing decision training and the new guys. Kinda wonder what kind of hitter Hays or Mountcastle could have been.

So you're saying, plate discipline CAN be taught!?

[eddie83]

Kevin needs to give us another Yankees update.

I think it's something that can be trained for, but probably has to be during the developmental stage of a hitter. I don't know if a Mountcastle or Hays can be taught at this stage. They are who they are, but if you can get a guy when they first arrive, give them all the offseason training, the VR stuff, and make it a priority to get promoted, then I do think it can be developed.

This game has all the makings of one of those improbable walk off home runs for a win. If Perez can hold them here, I strangely I have a good feeling about how this ends.

[tntoriole]

If White Sox beat As and we lose .. lead over them down to 1/2 game.  Losing 5/7 on the homestand is pretty definitive. 

[Tony-OH]

Perez losing his composure a bit this inning.

[mrbig1]

Look who's coming to bat.

[O's84]

Definitely close enough to be called.
