QUOTE (Knackattack @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 05:35 PM) The emergence of Montas should allow them to save face on that trade and just dump him too. I feel like they've put so much stock into sticking with him despite his overall suckitude because he was our big return for Jake Peavy. Totally agree, I still think you can get a talented, yet underperforming player back for Avi.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 05:33 PM) Man Avi is such a bad defender definitely someone they need to move this offseason, he just sucks

Montas' velocity down 2-3 mph with a runner on base.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 03:33 AM) You mean when Price signs with the Dodgers next season? Haha well done!

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 03:26 AM) I'm not sure, but I'm sure he's a Cub next year. I think the length of the contract will be the point of contention between teams. Has a team ever had both CY winners from the previous year on their roster?

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 12:52 AM) Arrieta is due to get torched. There's no better scenario for me than Arrieta giving up 7 ER in WC game. His stuff is insane right now. Let's hope Cole is on his game

Duke representing the offseason from hell. At least Q keeps boosting his trade stock.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 01:28 AM) He is not much better than that stuff wise. Reaches 93, many scouts call his stuff electric

Nice swing

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 23, 2015 -> 02:23 AM) How would Olt fare against a soft tosser? He's not a SOX product lol Norris isn't soft tosser

DJ and Farmer were pretty critical of Avi's crouch approach tonight

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 10:29 PM) The next two weeks will be filled with how the match up orientated Joe Maddon is perfect for the one game playoff where he can bring two starters, ten relievers and how his brilliance will shine. OMG, zoo day...the greatest thing ever. I'm sure we'll hear that the rest of the week on the radio.

Zobrist doesn't strike me as a guy who would sign with a team so far away from the playoffs.

Much better with the curve

Fastballs galore with Robertson

Johnson's velocity in the 90-91 range tonight according to mlb.com. Seems like he needs to be up a few mph to be more effective.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 12:54 AM) I miss ducksnort. Retire Hawk. KC Special is just so annoying considering that the Royals actually try to play that way. Similar to how Minnesota used to get speedy guys to just chop it off the MetroDome turf.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 12:52 AM) Johnson doesn't give up cheapies. 5 in 17 innings...yikes

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 12:46 AM) 13th pick, here we come! Maybe they can another Hawkins. In a way, I don't mind having a non-top 10 pick just because I don't want them signing one of the big time free agents. I don't feel like they're an Upton or Heyward away from competing.

96 RBI for Abreu

This is actually one of the more intriguing Sox games in a while with Johnson on the mound and Trayce/Micah in the lineup.

Was Trayce's triple a gapper or deep fly?

Slight tear for Yadi, not known if he can return in a few weeks

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 06:30 PM) I'm not saying Trayce Thompson will end up better in the long run...but for 2016, I'd rather see him get 550 at-bats than Avisail Garcia. Just not a fan. I hate Avi's swing so much. How many times can he ground weakly to 3rd base while his knee collapses at the plate?

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 04:49 PM) I'll just bet that Texas will be stalking TCU's/Baylor's coach after this season when they get a new AD. Chip Kelly to Texas makes so much sense
