QUOTE (Scoots @ Jun 29, 2017 -> 01:33 AM) I think him losing his best friend to gun violence has messed him up quite a bit. People keep saying this, but he was bad earlier in the year before that happened. His hitting is actually way better since.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jun 29, 2017 -> 01:32 AM) The Sox need to find a decent framer to pair up Rodon for the long-term. Absolutely

Sadly predictable, at least velocity is good

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 29, 2017 -> 12:28 AM) 100k posts and you still know less than most. Congrats. What do you disagree with

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jun 29, 2017 -> 12:24 AM) A big league SS needs to make that play. He's so clearly not. Bad hands, inaccurate arm and poor fundamentals/instincts

Anderson is pathetic on defense. Really needs to get sent down

Nice velocity so far. Omar is a bad fit for Rodon with his poor ability on low pitches

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Jun 29, 2017 -> 01:05 AM) RE Tettleton Many unusual things happened to power numbers in the early 1990s Does this mean Collins will be in Little Big League 2

Brewers just lost Chase Anderson to an oblique injury. Too bad they aren't all-in

Moncada slumping again. I keep saying it, but Charlotte is a total mess

Going to be emotional seeing Rodon pitch after he was part of the In Memoriam to start the season.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 06:38 PM) As a 22 year old, Carlton Fisk hit .229 with a .763 OPS in AA. 2 years later he was ROY hitting .293 with a .909 OPS. Good stuff thanks

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 06:16 PM) For those with the ability to see into the future with such clarity, can I get the winning powerball numbers for the next drawing? Say he does hit around .210 this year. Who is the last Major Leaguer to hit that poorly in their first year of pro ball out of college and turn into a productive hitter? Actual question and not a statement.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 04:48 PM) I still think Quintana has been screwed by the unannounced raising of the strike zone (low strikes getting called less frequently) that has caused him to experiment with other areas (high and inside). He seems to have corrected this by including the changeup more low? Think it was the 4th last night where I was sure he was going to give up a big hit because West refused to call anything low for him.

QUOTE (aryzner @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 05:22 PM) Not saying Eaton is/was a great teammate (thinking of the whole Drake LaRoche thing) but wasn't Montero one of the most vocal guys from the Dbacks bashing Eaton when he was sent to the Sox? Yes

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 04:54 PM) If he were hitting .330 and 15HR, I would not be complaining. Been saying that all year, rather he show he can project to be a big league hitter and core piece going forward. If the worst case scenario was that he was a slugging DH, that's better than what we are seeing at this moment.

Wow is Montero a horrible teammate

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 03:37 AM) Yay? Sure why not

Wow congrats to Abreu. Some good at bats late and who knows, maybe it makes Yankees want DRob

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 04:29 AM) This Hanson guy isn't very good IMO. Probably isn't but he's been pretty darn good for the Sox

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 03:23 AM) Anderson needs to get on base here, not try to jack a HR. The question is ... can he get on base here? Ha yeah right

Impressive way to possibly lose

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 02:47 AM) Didn't the defense let him down in his last outing? I'm not too concerned. Two cheap infield hits, two hard hit balls

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 03:45 AM) Swihart is worthless at this point Oh I know but Sox have tried to get him for years. I just want to see people blame KW

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 28, 2017 -> 03:40 AM) He was so hot before the A's series. Now he's something like 1 for 18 or so. Poor Avi. Back to lousiness. Maybe he let the two-error inning turn him back into the old Avi. Once that idiot Ozzie took credit for his improvement, his season has gone to hell.
