Radical idea -- Alcala finishes this thing.

right now , he is the BEST option

[stringer bell]

There are a lot of good things about Miranda as an offensive player, but he is really slow. 

[Fatbat]

Would have been nice to give Festa more early runs so he could get the win.

Anybody still wanna defend Rocco burning Duran on Wednesday?

Certainly. But not in this venue.

In other news, the White Sox will be mathematically eliminated from the playoffs in about 15 minutes, and before the opening of the Minnesota State Fair.

Eh, Miranda needs to get it to the outfield...not blessed with good footspeed. I wonder if a month with a track coach...oh, well.

It can work, by the way. I remember a guy in high school, below average footspeed. He actually did take track lessons one summer (rich daddy). Came to senior soccer season, suddenly he was the fastest guy on the team. He must have added 5 mph to his sprint speed.

Great comment by Molitor “so everyone knew a bunt was coming and it still worked, imagine what would happen if it wasn’t expected!”

burned Rocco!!!

I don't think Rocco can hear him since he has his job.

[USAFChief]

BTW, meant to mention,  as bad as Castro's baserunning gaffe, I'm more upset neither Larnach or Lewis could get a GD RBI there.

Keep an eye on Baltimore too. A win here brings us within 2 of them as well

They are currently on track for 39 wins on the season, if they finish with 38, it will be the worst winning percentage in modern baseball history.
