Astros signed LHP Ray King to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Round Rock.
King signed with the White Sox earlier this month, but he made just four appearances for Triple-A Charlotte before moving on again. The Astros could add him to their pen in a couple of weeks. May. 29 – 8:28 pm et

“By the way, Ozzie and I are cool,” Cabrera said. “We’ve always been cool, and we’re always going to be cool.”

“As long as we’re winning, a smile is going to be on my face every day,” said Cabrera, who mentioned he had a talk with Jim Thome prior to Thursday’s game. “Show up for the game and help the team win games. That’s most important for me.

“I’ve got the respect of my teammates. They’ve got my respect. I’m really comfortable. We’re winning games. That’s the only thing that matters to us, is winning games. And this team has such great players. They’re gamers—guys who have been around for a long time, and I admire all those guys.”

Listening to Scully tonight do the Dodger game and talked about the ‘red-hot White Sox.’ Like everything out here in LA, perception is everything.

...is that I lose sight of just how well our boys have been doing even while the lumber sleeps.

The Sox bullpen hasn’t given up an earned run for 10 straight games (27 total innings).

Pierre, Toronto: Under the knife went Fautino De Los Santos – Tommy John surgery. What does it mean for him in the long haul?

SportsNation Keith Law: Gee, the White Sox traded a pitcher who needed surgery right away. I feel like that’s happened before (coughSirotkacough). The lost year of development hurts, because he’s more raw arm than polished pitcher. Probably sets him back two years when it’s all said and done.

Diving stop in the bottom of the 3rd inning on Iwamura’s infield single. Had he not stopped it, the inning could’ve become disastrous for Danks & the Sox. So thank you Crede for that diving stop and the insurance 6th inning HR. Cheers to Joe for our 12th win out of our last 15.

on the white sox:

“They’re a good hitting team.”

1.) That was a moonshot by Konerko
2.) Amazing throw by Upton to get OC at 3rd. I actually don’t blame OC on going 3 there.

but seems like he still labors through innings and piles up pitches mighty fast

...love asking a Cubs bar to put the Sox game on.

Once I saw we were up 4-1 I just knew it was over and put my full attention to getting my drink on.

Love this team.

By the way as much as folks talk about the Rays and White Sox. The East still has to contend with the ridiculous starting pitching of Toronto. Poor Yankees (righttttt). The Bosox will be in a battle all year I think.

Its also hilarious and makes me immensely happy to read Tribe fans still writing stuff like, “geez should we take the White Sox seriously?” duh.

4-4 record is hardly all-star

I only saw the highlights, but I assume that would have made the left field concourse at The Cell?

I loved the shot of JD in the dugout explaining to Paulie how it bounced off the dome.
