Jared Mitchell
The White Sox selected Jared Mitchell, an outfielder from LSU, with the 23rd pick of the first round in tonight's MLB First-Year Player Draft. Mitchell, who the Sox had targeted, projects as a center fielder in the big leagues, and MLB Network analysis identified Mitchell as having the highest projection for a position player in the first round of this draft.
Lineup
Sorry, I was late posting tonight -- my daughter's eighth-grade graduation got in the way -- so I'll skip the lineup. You likely already know that LHP Aaron Poreda was promoted from Class AA Birmingham in time for tonight's game and Bartolo Colon was placed on the disabled list.
Go Sox. Beat Willis and the Tigers tonight... Go Mark..... j.k.

That's pretty funny, j.k. I love it! A.J.'s name is the only one that's Polish 365 days a year, but those other ones aren't half-bad!

They can get down the bunt. They can hit in the clutch. We can't. This is the story of our season so far........j.k.

That loss did not need to happen, and speaks volumes about our team.

You can't have a team issue 10 bases on balls to you and then worry about an umpire's call costing you the game.
Konerko, Pods and JD are playing well. Others have been way too inconsistent.
This was one of those rare occasions where our bullpen failed us.
All we can do is come back tomorrow night and try to even the series.

Kudos to the Boys for coming back (twice) last night. It looked like DeWayne was safe to me too. Keep playing hard and we still might be OK this year. Can we beat Verlander today? We should/ could be 3-0 instead of 1-2 so far this series....Go Sox....j.k.
