The Cubs better hope they can grab the Arrieta game.

The Cubs are shaking in their cleats over the prospect of facing Shark and his 4.62 ERA.

About as much as the Sox are over facing salad-tossing Hendricks. I expect the Sox batting averages to get very healthy in that game.

Also KC has way more talent

I disagree with that. Quad City Shithead twisted himself into knots trying to explain how the Royals were better at almost every spot. He somehow had Hosmer as better than Abreu. Mike Moustakas is Gordon Beckham if Beckham had gotten hot for a month on a World Series team.

Moustakas is better than Saladino.
Perez, Escobar, Gordon, Infante, Cain are also better.

Abreu is better than Hosmer but Hosmer/Morales is probably better than Abreu/La Roche

KC has better starting pitching and a way better bullpen.

I don't know if Moustakas is better than Saladino or not. Moustakas is pretty ordinary. He's having a good year though. Gordon is only better than Cabrera based on his left field defense. I guess it depends how important one thinks that is. Perez is better than Flowers. The middle infielders are a wash. Cain is better than Eaton. Rios and Garcia? Just shoot me. Obviously KC has the better bullpen. I don't really see how you could say their starting pitching is better though. Their opening day guy got sent to the minors. Cueto gives them a boost. I think most people would still take the White Sox five.

Moustakas is great defensively and has pop. He's better than Saladino right now.

Middle infielders are not a wash if you're talking 2015. Alexei is not same guy. Gordon and Melky are pretty similiar offensively and Gordon is waaaay better defensively at this point.

Maybe I overrate Cueto, because I think he's awesome and I think he and Sale pretty much cancel each other out

I think the next 4 goes to the Royals doesnt it? Guess it depends on which Samardizija you have

Jeff Simarga? Who is this joker the White Sox are throwing out there today? They rent this guy from the Schaumburg Boomers for the day to make a spot start? Make sure the '27 Cubs don't ruin Sale's ERA?

The Sox have maybe 2 position players that are equal to the Royals (Melky, Abreu)

Sale Cueto is close to a wash and the Royals have a better 2-5

And the Bullpen is not even close.

Gotta love Frank. Never changes

It's a southside softball game. Hendricks is not sharp.
