QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 28, 2016 -> 07:24 PM) Avile is on the juice. Prune juice

Avi couldn't have hit it harder!

Avila with a good day at the plate

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 28, 2016 -> 08:14 PM) 1-2 fastball down the middle Happening far too often

QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 28, 2016 -> 08:15 PM) They got the run all day on Avila scouting report. Those were on Rodon

Clueless on the slider and throws the fastball. Pitch selection is a joke

Stupid pitch selection once again. It's obvious Rodon has a bad fastball today.

Throw the slider ahead in the count!

3-0 swing and foul pop to catcher. Just such a non-factor

Huge out!

Seems like his command is worse the slower he throws. Let's see if we can finally get a big 3rd out

Rodon has awful command of his fastball once again

Why isn't Rodon throwing hard today? Just turned on and saw its 91

QUOTE (Tony @ May 28, 2016 -> 07:30 PM) Hawk just took a nice little shot at Robin. Watching Alvin and the Chipmunks instead...what he say

Granderson walk off homer tonight. First one since 2005, which was off the Sox. That was a few days before the Sox clinched the ALC

It's pretty freaking awful. The gap between Anderson and Adams or Fulmer is gigantic. Fulmer might be having one of the worst years in the minors for a top 100 prospect.

There was statistically about a 5 pct chance that Perez would walk in that situation. We aren't taking about someone with a good eye at the plate

Can I just say I love Todd Frazier though. Assuming they don't go into a rebuild, I hope they extend him

QUOTE (harkness @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:40 AM) I predict we will finish 3rd in the Division. Hopefully they will make me eat crow... lets try some reverse karma. But yeah I'm expecting 3rd in the division. Tigers are better IMO. Deeper lineup

QUOTE (TitoMB @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:32 AM) It's gonna be Joe Crede. I KNOW it. Renteria, book it

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:30 AM) Do players respect him or take advantage of him? Who knows, all I know is he should have been fired after last year.

QUOTE (Butter Parque @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:29 AM) I'm not saying he isn't, but besides Robertson, he's the highest leverage reliever this team has. Why on earth would you bring in a gas can to face their hottest hitter, when you can just as easily walk him and bring in your better reliever? It's almost as if he has some sort of managing manual he printed out from Wikipedia... "Lefty against lefty, I MUST make this move! Still annoyed Rollins was like 5 feet from 2nd when Escobar was up. How many times so far vs the Sox has he already hit the ball in the 5-6 hole? I get being at DP depth but he was way too far up the middle.

Players respect him

QUOTE (Butter Parque @ May 28, 2016 -> 03:20 AM) Just the idea that Jones did end up pitching in the 7th, but only after the lead was gone. I'm mesmerized by the stupidity involved in that thinking. And you don't worry about walking Perez and his 5 percent walk rate with the bases loaded.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 28, 2016 -> 03:20 AM) That April looks like fool's gold. Honestly it is hard to judge a team after the first month since guys are still finding their groove and getting in the swing of things (no pun intended). Which is why spending a ton of money on Shields would be so stupid right now. Oh well, the farm system is so awful it doesn't matter who they give up outside of Anderson.
