While I would like to sell some assets (Frazier) to get something for the future. If we do go that route I feel it will be in the off season. Unless they bring back Ventura which wouldn't shock me, having the new manager have a small say wouldn't be the worst idea. Good thing I just got the Show for 15 and can attempt to build a winning team on there.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) He hit .294 with 26 steals last year. Obviously he hasn't been good this year, but a change of scenery could do something for him. Unfortunately hitters don't come here and start to hit haha

QUOTE (FT35 @ Jul 13, 2016 -> 01:19 PM) Correct...but playing him as a regular would sort of eliminate what makes him valuable--his plus defense/versatility off the bench. Unless you plan on sitting someone different everyday to make room for Tyler to be in the lineup everyday. To DH him would be a wash since fielding is what he does well. I guess my point is that I think they are using him well right now in his current role. DHing him could mean they use a rotating DH giving players days off from the field.

It's from top to bottom. This team sucks... but I still love them. But they suck

QUOTE (b-Rye @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 10:46 PM) The 3 year fail more like it. This team has no depth. When Jackson,c Cabrera were gone last week we had the worst lineup baseball by far. no depth whatsoever. Fulmer might be a bust, Anderson looks like Micah Johnson to me, rodon below average, duke/albers/Latos/avilla/Rollins/shuck/sands/Garcia should be dfa'd and guarantee nobody in MLB would add them. Then it's a nothing but aaaa players in our system. Our cheap ass GM should of got some decent players not a bunch of crap players off scrap pile. Imagine Ian desmond, Dexter Fowler, cespedes on this team Our bullpen would still be atrocious, we were never getting Cespedes away from New York. Yes Desmond or Fowler would help the offense, but that wouldn't do much for the starting pitching outside, or the pen. I don't think we are 1 player away from being a solid offensive club either so I imagine adding one of those to this team would have had a slightly higher scoring team with the same results.

3.000 OPS just saying.

Ya'll said DFA Fat Albers... dude has the best OPS in the league. 3.000!

QUOTE (harkness @ May 30, 2016 -> 04:31 PM) He also bunts with his 3rd place hitter.... he does that well. So like I said he is good at losing.

The cycle continues... great starting pitching and can't hit... Tomorrow just gonna be a combination of bad hitting bad pitching? Tune in next time

I remember when we used to be the team that scored runs after the 7th... this team sucks.

Losing games... there's that.

This team has turned from 1st place best AL team into watch how many ways we can suck... Oh we get great starting pitching? We don't hit. We get good to great starting pitching, and we scored 5+? Let bull pen blows it. My guess tomorrow bats come out cold and we score 13 over the next 2 weeks.

I've been trying to keep my head up about the team. The hot start was awesome. The fact that we are 2-9 the last 11 only winning Sales starts really drags me down. We are now in for a long season unless something drastically changes starting tomorrow. We hit when our pitchers are shelled and when they go out and only give up 2 or 3 runs we do nothing at the plate. It's frustrating, we are wasting the best pitcher in AL's prime years.

Hopefully we get our 1st non Sale win in 10 games...

Saladino needs to get rid of that thing on his face

Does Rodon just forget how to pitch with 2 outs? Also my streak on beat the streak is alive thanks Carlos! Edit: Cancel that thought he was about to fall apart like he has been lately with 2 outs. My apologies

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 14, 2016 -> 07:10 PM) Jose's running speed or the bat speed (slider speed right now)...? Not sure why Jose Abreu is the one trying to change Rodon's arm angles/motion...because Rodon is of Cuban-American heritage and therefore he should pitch like Jose or El Duque. Good thing they're not trying to turn him into Juan Marichal, Fernando Valenzuela or Luis Tiant if he was another nationality. Pretty sure he was being facetious

Todd Frazier is on the go pay show on MLB network

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 13, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) I think he was talking about self confidence as a hitter, not his looks. That would make more sense haha

QUOTE (Scoots @ May 13, 2016 -> 08:39 PM) Lol what did he say Something like Avi will be fine, he just needs to mirror to like him more.

Did Hawk just make fun of Avi's looks? Also he looked like vintage Avi that AB. First pitch swinging

Loving what Avis been doing lately. Time for rodon to step it up

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 10, 2016 -> 12:34 AM) I still can't believe we actually pulled this game out. After giving up the lead in the 9th I thought we would lose for sure, this team keeps surprising us and I love winning! I turned it off in the 10th when they had 2 on

Winner winner now for my chicken dinner

Helluva play by AJax. Just wish he could hit half as well as he mans center haha
