Anderson with a big error. Two on one out; a good team like the O's figures to take advantage of that error at this middle part of the game.

I'm not extremely confident we gonna win this game. Man on first none out.

Double plays suck.

Great half inning. Would be nice for the future to get Rodon to be able to go seven every night. Our bullpen can sometimes handle the eighth and ninth. Very rarely can we cover three innings.

Third walk for Anderson!!!

Nice home run by Saladino. He should be playing every single day. White Sox scouts should be ashamed they haven't demanded he play every day. The guy is a hitter.

Frazier with a helluva play at third. He's pretty like-able at times. He definitely is better than Dunn.

Too bad Rodon's defense let him down in the first. Should be a no hitter right now with five K's.

Lotta pitches by Tillman. He was on fire the last couple batters, though. 1-0 Sox after one.

Eaton fails. Got to move the runner there. Man on second, one out, Sox up 1-0.

Nice double by Melky. He pulled it but didn't hit into the shift. Nice stroke.

Nice double by Anderson. Great swing there.

Buck vs. Robin in a managerial battle is not a pretty matchup. Rodon shows why he remains a top prospect. Only the Sox could have Sale, Q, Rodon and Shields and suck.

Lotta pitches doesn't bode well with our bullpen, but at least please get out of this jam.

Should be out of the inning if not for horrendous defense.

This is a bad matchup for the Sox. It's got to be one of those rare games in Vegas where the visitors have to be favored. This smells like a 6-0 or 6-1 loss if Rodon pitches well, possibly one of those 8-0 or 9-0 losses at home if Rodon blows tonight. This is one of those 60 you just pencil in as an L.

Next hahn is probably going to do interviews and that can take some time. Plus if they have guys thats on other teams like bench coaches to interview they have to get permission from the team. Not a just hire someone and be done kinda decision. again realize jerry is probably going to have some say in it. Heck robin was offered the job and he had no previous experience and didnt want the job. Ugh. I don't like the process. Whoever you think is THE guy, think about it now and make it happen quickly after the season. Cutting the list to five and interviewing them will guarantee us s***. The Royals did that and got Trey Hillman. He interviewed the best and had a vision. You all know I want Leyland or LaRussa. Talk them into returning with $$$$. What about Girardi? Surely the Yanks are sick of him by now. Or Gardy?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 07:04 PM) More BS from Sox management SOS. I hope Hahn has somebody in mind for manager. He shouldn't care if Robin finds out he's already looking. There's no reason to worry about offending Robin. Decide who you want as manager and announce it right after the season. This mess isn't all Robin's fault, but the dysfunctional losses and weird stretches of baseball dictate his removal.

Any news on protests/riots in Chicago? Looks like Chicago natives at least are not interested in rioting over incidents like this one, thank goodness.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 07:40 PM) Guys guys guys, the media made Carson into this bad guy. Yet you guys have no interest in seeing what he had to say on Hannity. The best and brightest cannot run for President anymore cause the media will not rest until all opponents of the favored Democratic candidate have been appropriately buried and tagged as nutjobs/totally unfit for office.

If the Sox bust up their solid to excellent rotation it's going to take a long long long time to re-build that part of the team. I see no solutions because the defense is still bad, the bullpen reeks and the offense is bad. Too many holes that can only be filled with first-round draft picks (if they pan out). I see a long long stint of futility coming.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 03:21 AM) You a partially corrdct. The version of football we know is dying. There is far too much money in the NFL for them not to have it. They will always find a way to keep it going. But aside from kids in Texas and Alabama, whose going to be out there to play the game? I guess those states could produce enough NFL players. Parents simply cannot allow their kids to play this sport. You basically are assuring your child a shorter life and brain misery, possibly dementia. The sport is dead in 10-20 years unless as I said Texas churns out enough talent to fill NFL rosters.

QUOTE (Tony @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 07:41 AM) It's easy to pick up 1 or 2 things and call someone a nut job, yet you can't name me one thing that makes him "remarkable", aside from appearing on FoxNews and having a medical degree. I'm waiting... Well, I guess I'm going to have to replay the interview, cause during the whole interview I was incredibly impressed. I remember that. At this time I can't remember specific lines, since my mind is mush after watching a lot of political shoutfest shows this week as well as Olympic crap. I am a huge Carson fan now.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 04:29 AM) With the Sox loss tonight, they remain with the 12th pick. 1 GB of the Royals for 11th 1.5 GB of the Phillies for 10th (If they hold on to win) 13 GB of the Braves for the 1st pick Don't even worry about the Royals. They will storm past us following NINE more head to head meetings. Phils have a better team than we do, also. I think we could get the third or fourth pick before all is said and done. Our team is that bad.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 03:41 AM) Sox were in the game until Robin brought in Kahnle with predictable results. Says a few things: 1. The state of the Sox bullpen that this guy is even on the roster (and you can throw Turner in there as well) 2. The state of the Sox minor league system that there are basically no other options. It is what it is, isn't it? Mark We've had so many bad relievers the past few seasons it's hard to believe. I don't follow all teams closely but I assume all lousy teams have some incredibly bad pitchers in the bullpen. I don't know how players don't have higher batting averages than they do with all this crap taking the mound nowadays. And fourth and fifth starters? Some of them are so so bad.
