FWIW, I wonder how Mervis would have done out of the gate this year had we not have traded for Busch.... or Tauchman in CF and Bellinger at 1B.

White Sox had a 5-2 lead going to bottom of the 8th. Twins just walked it off. 6-5 the final

Twins just walked it off. 6-5 the final Right after the 8th. inning when the White Sox took the 5-2 lead in a cut-away post game co-host Ozzie Guillen said (basically) "it's over" & his co-host said "don't jinx them" & the rest is enjoyable history..

Could have a fun afternoon game on our hands as the Dbacks take on the Turds in Jordan Montgomery’s return to Busch. Hope he dominates them in the grandest fashion. First pitch is 12:15p central time.
The Cards are the only team in the central with a negative run differential at -30. Losers.

That’s perfect. I hate Ozzie, always so loud and so annoying.

Not yet, mind you, but at some point this year maybe. I already do ....kind of . I have a friend that I went to high school with who I'm friends with on Facebook and he's a Sox fan and the last few years when the Sox were highly regarded and among the WS favorites when the Cubs would lose a game he would change his profile picture to a picture of the El on the tracks . It took me a while to catch on , lol. This is a guy I used to go back and forth with shooting barbs at each other but in kind hearted fun. I congratulated him on the Sox rise while the Cubs were starting a rebuild and I said the Sox should be a team to watch for years to come and I liked the talent Hahn was collecting and that they'd be hard for me not to like. Well so far I've kept quiet because I feel sorry for him , don't see any baseball posts coming from him anymore so I have been contemplating just simply asking him " what happened to your White Sox" but I feel bad for him. He was really pumped up about his team for a while and so far I've still restrained mnyself from rubbing it in, but it's getting harder by the day.

I used to love that , especially in games vs the Cubs ........dead silence for a solid minute and then you'd hear him mumble mercy or dad gummit, or something you couldn't even understand and then back to dead silence. On the old Intentional talk with Rose and Millar on MLBnetwork they used to have a Hawk segement and play all his rumblings and silent air episodes.

Cardinals demote Jordan Walker to AAA. Still just 21 (for a few more short weeks), Walker is slashing just .155/.239/.259/.497 on the season. He’ll undoubtedly be back but I think he serves as a good reminder that top prospects don’t always come up and just rake right off the bat no matter how talented they are.

Looks like the magic pixie dust isn't working for them anymore

Looks like the magic pixie dust isn't working for them anymore Orioles Jackson Holliday is hitting .059 with a NEGATIVE 47 OPS+ so far. I'd still trade them for him right now for a ton of prospects though.

O's don't sound like they are worried too much and there is no way they would even think about trading him.
