I was looking at gamescore on my phone and said that Abreu stuck out on 3 pitches.

Six pitches. There was a ball and Abreu fouled off two of them.

Lagaeres finna take some time from Fowler in RF. 

I'd like to see a straight platoon with the two, unless Fowler sucks against righties. I'd also like to see Rengifo start to get some time in RF.

I like that at bat by Adell. Pitcher was struggling and Adell waited for the ball to come to the zone before swinging. On 3-0 he took the pitch and 3-1, with the runner going he laid off the high fastball that would have tied him up last year. He never let the pitcher off the hook and that is big.

I'm listening to the White Sox combo. Pretty generic.

High Praise from the Pitching Ninja!

@Chuckster70 Thoughts on Jose Rojas? Nobody ever seems to talk about him as a decent prospect, which I’m guessing is because of his age? But dude has progressed through the minors nicely. Just looks like he’s been screwed by getting drafted at 23 and then not having a season last year.

The batter never learned the lesson so Shoei kept teaching him what he can't hit.

@Jeff Fletcher had a nice feature on Brandon Marsh but also Jose Rojas today. 

Check this out...

I personally like his bat and his versatility, but he needs to improve his defense around the diamond.

Jo Adell's outfield defense is just awful. 

[Jay]

Geez Adell hit that wall hard.

[jsnpritchett]

Uh-oh.  Another botched play by Adell.  Banged into the wall.  A little gimpy, but looks like he'll be ok.

[Bronson]

Ohtani starting to get hit kinda hard now. 

[bloodbrother]

Few things more dangerous in baseball than Jo Adell trying to field a ball in the OF. I'm just glad it appears he's OK because he hit that wall hard

[Docwaukee]

I think we all need to accept the fact that Adell isn't every going to be a very good defender no matter where you put him.  

[failos]

Wtf is Adell doing?

Listening to the Chicago feed and they were saying Adell had a long way to go and it was a difficult play. That and we are spoiled with Mike Trout that knows every inch of the warning track and how to play it so he makes it looks easy. Hunter made it look easy as well.

It was a bad play.
