LittleHurt05 324 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 08:58 PM) Never? I meant never good in a Sox jersey. And he hadn't been great with the Padres. Obviously he he was pretty solid for a long time between Tampa and KC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScooterMcGuire 1,464 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (Soha @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 10:47 PM) That was odd. Wasn't even close. Yeah that's 2 calls overturned in the same inning...on the same umpire...on calls he made against the away team losing by a ton...like really? Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScooterMcGuire 1,464 Posted August 20, 2017 Nice only 9 more to go lol. 2B away from the cycle for Jose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caulfield12 4,081 Posted August 20, 2017 Between the scout/s who recommend Holland, Shields and Covey...better hope he was also behind Kahnle and Swarzak. And Bourjos actually has been a fairly productive contributor for the Rays, fwiw. On the plus side, Leury, Avi, Delmonico and Davidson (sort of). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

southsider2k5 11,627 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 09:21 PM) Anderson since he signed deal has got a little too comfortable. This is absolute BS with what he has been through this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dick Allen 5,571 Posted August 20, 2017 Goldberg is bad. Hawk said they have used 24 pitchers this year. You are going to get a fair share that shouldn't be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caulfield12 4,081 Posted August 20, 2017 Wonder if they bother recalling Fulmer in Sept?...we'll get Guerrero and Danish, but I'm not sure how sending Adams out against MLB hitters will help, unless Cooper can figure out a way to amp up his velocity.

SoxAce 3,160 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 08:59 PM) There are maybe 4 competent pitchers on this roster. Quite impressive Rodon, Gonzalez, Lopez, Minaya? Hopefully Giolito is the 5th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg775 1,727 Posted August 20, 2017 I know we are rebuilding but the commish should step in and declare Holland unfit for MLB. It's making a farce of baseball. In the greg can be wrong category ... man I was wrong bout Saladino. I loved that guy. He is a miserable hitter. Glad my fave Avi got 2 hits tonight, but Anderson with a rare (of late) 0 for 5. Just getting caught up on the game. Wowsie, Holland is so bad. Fathom could line extra bases off him. Caulfield could whack a single off him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Señor Ding-Dong 0 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 09:29 PM) Pretty sure his range is considered awful also He's got plenty of speed and athleticism, so range isn't the problem. I think it's mostly mental issues with him and perhaps to an extent his mechanics/fundamentals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soxforlife05 7 Posted August 20, 2017 Not sure what they see in Covey. This is one of the worst bullpens I have ever seen on any team. Perfect for the tank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Señor Ding-Dong 0 Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (Scoots @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 09:38 PM) Yeah the regression is not surprising considering...he was one of "those" draftees...wonder if there is a good shortstop the Sox can sign in the first round next summer. How long is Anderson's contract for? With the draft you gotta go BPA. And it's too early to give up on Anderson, though I'm not bullish on him sticking at SS or improving his pitch recognition/patience. His extension is 6 years.
