Way to get into position Eaton

Wow team looks defeated already. How is this acceptable to JR and Hahn

Another quick first inning for the offense. Happened a lot lately

how can a major league manager be so oblivious to splits

I predict he's fired on Monday if they only win 1 game or less on this trip.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 31, 2016 -> 09:04 PM) Robin might be trying to get himself fired.. Let's play the new hit game show: How Will the White Sox Lose Tonight? A) Latos lets up 5+ runs B) Bullpen blows a lead C) We lose a low scoring close game by only scoring 2 runs or less D) Sox make 2+ errors leading to 3+ unearned runs and costs us the game E) Half our team gets food poisoning in the middle of the game because of some churros they ate earlier Mets blowout and hit 4 homers

QUOTE (shipps @ May 31, 2016 -> 09:55 PM) I havent looked at his stats at all for this year but I assuming they arent as bad as todays game which you are basing your opinion on for whether or not to trade for the guy? His peripherals are bad. ERA only good due to best LOB pct of his career

7 runs in 1.2 innings so far for Shields vs Seattle. Just say no to Shields!

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ May 31, 2016 -> 08:56 PM) This is without even the slightest bit of context, though. Fact of the matter is, this team has blown 5 games in the last 3 weeks that they should have won & have won 4 games in their last (20?). Obviously they aren't this bad but to operate under that mindset w/o any sort of context doesn't make much sense to me. They haven't played themselves out of contention though. Way too early to root for losses, etc

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 31, 2016 -> 07:33 PM) Yes. He should always play vs lefties and never vs righties. If Ventura insists on him being the starter, but chooses this as his day off, I riot. And Rollins will be right back in tomorrow against another flame throwing righty

Rollins special was awesome

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 31, 2016 -> 02:12 AM) Holy s*** at that swerve! Perhaps I should have seen that coming but wow that really took me by surprise for whatever reason. Fantastic

What a garbage show so far tonight. Hate how they have booked Rollins since last Raw started

The Cubs are getting insane pitching this year. They are a misplayed blooper away from another possible no-hitter vs Dodgers

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 30, 2016 -> 09:42 PM) NY writer tweeted that Ventura said he had Melky bunt with two on and no outs because they were playing for one run. Wow, just wow. What an idiot Didn't know it was bottom of the 9th

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 30, 2016 -> 09:27 PM) You also have to consider that Robin was basically playing for 1 run in that situation. With the bullpen the way it's been, why the hell would you do that? Last few weeks reminds me of end of 2012. Bad hitting with RISP, strange bunting decisions and poor performances from the pen.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 30, 2016 -> 09:22 PM) You don't want Buddy Bell do you? It won't be him. Let him stay in minors and continue to be awful at his job.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 30, 2016 -> 09:22 PM) Thats a fair point It's very possible this team might just suck and Robin was a magician in April. Not a lot of teams will contend if their offensive anchor (Abreu) forgets he's supposed to be a run producer. No RBI in 11 games for him.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 30, 2016 -> 08:17 PM) Thing is do we really think this team will do any better with someone else? I dont think so. I agree the team is weak mentally.I think its an organization thing. Proof is against the royals. The royals are the new twins. And BTW ozzie managed those teams It's a good question, but can it hurt? Robin has done nothing in his tenure to deserve benefit of the doubt.

QUOTE (Tony @ May 30, 2016 -> 09:10 PM) Seriously, Billy Heywood would NOT have approved. Anyone that quotes that movie gets an applause from me!!

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 30, 2016 -> 08:03 PM) Would love to see what half the people here can do managing. Monday morning quarterbacking is easy Most of these moves of late were second guessed before (bunt, pitching to Hosmer). With that said, even the moves that make sense have back-fired. Team is just mentally weak. Once something bad happens in a game, they fold.

And to add to that Tony, if Frazier doesn't get it done, you set the stage for Mr. -76 wRC+

Sox should be doing everything they can to avoid letting their awful hitting catchers bat late in games. Instead we get them hitting consecutively with Avi and Saladino available

This season ended on Rua's bomb. Team has lost all of its confidence and swagger since.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 30, 2016 -> 08:45 PM) Nice to see our lineup get both Familia and Harvey out of their funks. Hard to see Robin surviving this trip
