Post subject: | 8/27-30: Biggies in Baltimore |
The White Sox take a 2 1/2 game AL Central lead to Baltimore's Camden Yards (or is it Oriole Park?) for a big 4-game series with the Wildcard-contending Orioles tonight through Thursday. The O's may not have been relevant since 1997, but Buck Showalter's guys have given the Sox trouble since he took over as manager just over 2 years ago. These are the mound matchups for this important series: TONIGHT: 6:05P: WCIU 26 The U & 670 The SCORE/White Sox Radio Network CHW: 58 Francisco Liriano (LHP; 5-10 Overall w/CHW & MIN, 5.12 ERA) vs. BAL: 16 Wei-Yen Chen (LHP; 12-7, 3.87 ERA) TUESDAY: 6:05P: CSNC & 670 The SCORE/White Sox Radio Network CHW: 49 Chris Sale (LHP; 15-4, 2.67 ERA) vs. BAL: 30 Chris Tillman (RHP; 6-2, 3.71 ERA) WEDNESDAY: 6:05P: WGN (CW9/WGN America) & 670 The SCORE/White Sox Radio Network CHW: 44 Jake Peavy (RHP; 9-9, 3.09 ERA) vs. BAL: 50 Miguel Gonzalez (RHP; 5-3, 3.66 ERA) THURSDAY: 11:35A, WGN & 670 The SCORE/White Sox Radio Network CHW: 62 Jose Quintana (LHP; 5-2, 2.86 ERA) vs. BAL: TBA* *NOTE: TBA could be newly acquired O's lefty Joe Saunders, who Baltimore acquired yesterday in a trade from the Diamondbacks. RHP Matt Lindstrom and cash or a player to be named will go to Arizona. |

Liriano definitely hurt his ankle. You could see him reach down and grab it after that last pitch. Hopefully he just landed on it wrong and there is nothing serious. Now they are saying it may be a cramp in his lower leg. Hydrate young Man. Hydrate. |

I'm with Jesse. Why the hell didn't you throw the ball to first, AJ?!? That looked like a taylor made 5-2-3 double play. |

Post subject: | Re: 8/27-30: Biggies in Baltimore |
It wasn't pretty but that was a hell of a job by Jesse to get 4 outs and only give up 1 run that inning. Now how about scoring a few runs off this bullpen. |

Another big hit for DeWayne. He's been playing some great ball. Offensively and defensively. I'm not sure De Aza gets his job back when he comes off the DL. |

Ugly start to the road trip. That was a win that the O's were just dying to give away, and the Sox couldn't take advantage :\ |

Chris Sale is on the spot tonight as the Southsiders try to bounce back for only their second win in the season series with the O's. Anyway, A roster move will be made after the game to accommodate the return of Dylan Axelrod tomorrow night. He'll be called up from Triple "A" Charlotte to start the game tomorrow night in Baltimore. Jake Peavy starts the BIG Tigers' weekend series in Detroit Friday night. |

Awaiting tonight's lineup, but the Trib's Mark Gonzales has just Tweeted that Gavin Floyd is back on the 15-day DL with a right elbow strain. Dylan Axelrod officially promoted to the big club. |

There's your roster move, SHARKY. It's a good thing rosters expand on saturday. They are going to call up plenty of reserve arms along with a few bench players. Josh Phegley and Dan Johnson should be locks. Brent Morel and Connor Jackson will probably get called up too. Jared Mitchell may get the call to provide some speed off the bench. |

GM Ken Williams didn't name specific names, but should the White Sox make the MLB Playoffs, they've got some decisions to make for sure. Even though he's now on the DL, Gavin Floyd & backup infielder Ray Olmedo might not make the postseason roster if the Sox make it. |

Wolf, just released by the Brewers, will reportedly sign today with the O's, according to multiple MLB sources. |

So was Sale just bad tonight or did his dead arm deal return? |

You sure can count on the Sox to wet the bed on the road. First a sweep in KC, and now getting spanked by the O's. I imagine tomorrow night won't get better with the rookie pitching. |
