White Sox Weekly
OK I know the playoffs are completely different then the regular season but Oakland was barely a challenge in the 1st 2 games. 7 SB in Game 1, 5 in Game 2. Parkman caught Doug Johnson in Game 2. Billingsley we decimated in Game 1. Nelson fared a bit better, but Simmons struggled with walks. Brett is on his way to be the 1st 30-30 White Sox player ever. Sterling Thomas wont be back til around July 1st, somehow I don't know how to add.

Player Spotlight: Garret Jackson
POS: RF/LF B: R T: R #22
How Acq: Drafted in 2012 by the White Sox. Garret is the oldest son of Bo Jackson, former White Sox, Angels & Royals OF. (Actual age may differ) Garret loves playing for the White Sox but he is not quite tje player his father was. While he does hit for a higher avg, he does not have the speed his father had. They both are very familiar with striking out. Bo's highest strike out season was 1989 at 172 K's. Garrets's highest is 198 in 2017. Both led the league. Garret is 30 HR's shy of his father's 141. They are both a 1 time All Star. Garret's best friend is fellow Sox player and son of a former Sox player, Sterling Thomas. Most call Garret Pops since he is a veteran and among the older players on the team that have played their entire career with the Sox. Despite not going to college out of HS, Garret has his Masters from St Mary's in Minnesota. Garret recently signed a 3 yr extension worth 15.3 million that will keep him in a Sox uniform for a few more years.

White Sox Weekly
Had back to back losses to Oakland & Seattle, other then that we have been playing pretty well. Sterling Thomas is back from his 50 game suspension. I still think is was a fluke thing but only time will tell.
July looks to be a fun month. We have the All Star game coming up and should have 5-7 All Stars. Some divisional games, a few vs the AL East and then some more interleague. Looking forward to beating the Cubs in Wrigley Field.

Monthly Standings
Only close race in the American League is in the West with Oakland, Seattle & Texas. National League has a decent race in the NL North and a good race with LA & San Fran in the NL West.
CBF wildcard races are always close even at the half way point in the season. George Springer is having a good season as is Travis Dobson of Hope Jedi. Races seem to be over on the EBL.

He says he also learned a lot by watching Chris Sale before Sale went to the Astros.

Next Series: Boston Red Sox
3 games @ Boston. Boston has an underachieving pitching staff. Their offense isn't as strong as it once was either. Bogaerts is their best offensive player but Jackie Bradley Jr is solid also. They do also have good team speed.
