Don't get me wrong, I like Benetti way way better than what's his name I forget, but he needs to be paired with someone who can play off his smartassery.

Dan Dickerson seems to get along really well with Gibby, probably because Gibby's not being fronted by a guy two decades younger who's trying to be too clever by half.

Jason uses advanced stats that Gibby really doesn't understand.

Man, Jo Adell is a ****ing train wreck for the Angels.

Andrew Chafin just got his bacon saved by the greatest home run rob you’re going to see this year.

This year’s White Sox might also be the most snake-bit team I’ve ever seen.

Wow. He pulled that ball back from, like, behind him. He skyed!

I literally thought they weren’t going to win another game after the trade deadline. lol

The youth on this team seems to have energized them. Also, like Jason said last night, these guys all played together at lower levels. So there's that team building already in place. Comradarie 

[gehringer_2]

Brieske and Foley both bringing serious heat in this one. Makes every thing else a lot easier.

Me too. But I wasn't factoring in 7 consecutive games vs the White Sox and Angels. The way AJ has been patching the pitching together has been impressive

[Jim Cowan]

If you called 85 wins at the start of the year I like your chances.

[Jim Cowan]

And I know that "pitching wins" is a horsecrap statistic, except for that one Steve Carlton year, but "20 game winner" would look good on Tarik Skubal.

[IdahoBert]

So tomorrow, Thursday, we have Montero, an actual starter. And Friday we have Mize and then Saturday Skubal, both actual starters.

What’s amazing is that he won 27 games that year and his own team, total, won only 59.

at the trade deadline, I was wishing there was a discounted mlb.tv package that covered only the first 2/3 of the season and that I'd bought it instead of the full season.
