  1. Watch our starting pitching start acing and our bullpen start sucking again
  2. Lot of bulls*** in thus inning but don't walk Ichiro either
  3. Ghost of Lindstrom still present.
  4. QUOTE (flavum @ May 24, 2014 -> 03:24 PM) That's a problem that needs to be addressed. Yeah I mean I get it kind of. Probably the only pen with 1 lefty...but still
  5. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 24, 2014 -> 03:19 PM) Adam's been hot, but he got overmatched by that lefty. I hated Thornton as a Sox. He looked good there. I'd probably still take him over Downs. Downs is leading the league in appearances. That's funny.
  6. He said he tipped that?
  7. Wow some awful abs for Garcia today
  8. This should be a no hitter right now
  9. Anyone know if I can get a full replay of this game online?
  10. Yeah you can't overturn that
  11. That's a break...or not
  12. QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 24, 2014 -> 10:48 AM) Not really. Gillaspie getting a rest against a LHP and get Semien some at bats. You could argue Sierra over Leury in LF but anybody is better than De Aza right now so its moot. Nieto too. I mean I see the logic behind every move but it's still ugly name wise.
  13. QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 23, 2014 -> 11:14 PM) what was the attendance? 28k a lot of them Yankee fans
  14. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 23, 2014 -> 10:48 PM) Fathom where are you sitting at the game? Did you get freebies or buy? What's the atmosphere like tonight? Drunks or normal fans? I'm first row by the tarp. It's freezing so atmosphere is very subdued. 28k
  15. Anyone see that error by the fan on Gillaspie foul to the tarp? Hope that made tv.
  16. Did he tip that? At the game, didn't look like it. I'm freezing.
  17. QUOTE (CyAcosta41 @ May 23, 2014 -> 12:57 PM) Bingo. And that's why the signability issue is NOT overblown. Because with Boras (Appel, Bobby Seay, Jeff Weaver), the likelihood of shenanigans in the original signing process is exponentially higher than with any other agent. Given the rarity of a 1-3 pick for this franchise, I don't believe the Hahn/Reinsdorf braintrust will risk drafting a Boras guy UNLESS he's clearly THE guy. As good as Rodon is and MIGHT be, there are many who have concerns about him beyond any Boras-factor, mostly centering around over-reliance on his slider and whether his overall repertoire is "all that" if the slider isn't a part of the equation. Then, there's that "second contract" thing. The Boras approach of virtually always going to the open market couldn't be more opposite from the Sox business plan. Again, I think this raises an enormous red flag about the player, UNLESS he's far and away THE guy. And I don't think the Sox believe he is. It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Personally, I would be shocked if Miami doesn't select Rodon if Houston passes on him. My feel is that the Sox dream draft is Rodon and Kolek off the board at 1-1 and 1-2 (in no particular order). For different reasons, I don't think the Sox want either one of these guys. If that's the case, then Rodon/Kolek being gone give them the FIRST pick in the draft (subjectively speaking). We're not going to be here often (if at all) during Hahn's tenure. I sure hope we get it right. Again, none of those guys are comparable to Rodon getting drafted at 3 (assuming you meant Jered which was the biggest fiasco ever but still not comparable). Boras will pull shenanigans and probably not sign until the last minute, but he's not risking his client who has already lost mph on his pitches back to school on so little monetary improvement when he's the 3rd pick already.
