QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 31, 2015 -> 01:07 AM) for some reason I feel like I've been considering the Dodgers an elite team this year, but they really aren't quite as good as I thought Awful 1-2 in their lineup doesn't help. Puig also has sucked and their trade deadline acquisitions have been horrendous. As for tonight, Arrieta is making them look silly. He's been the best pitcher in baseball the last month.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 06:45 PM) 2 weeks ago they mailed it in. Once Sale imploded against Boston, the season has seemed to be over. They lost any and all momentum they had.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 07:44 PM) Well if you ever had a doubt what a team that mailed it in looks like, take a good look Being at the game last night, it was the most lethargic I've ever seen a Sox team. From Samardzija's demeanor pre-game to hustling on/off the field between innings, it was pretty shocking.

This team is simply awful. Might as well lose as many games as possible now.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 06:37 PM) I really hope Avi can improve his O game. Like why the f*** is he always hitting ground balls. His swing path is and has always been awful

Team looks focused again coming out of the gates. Heck of a job Ventura and Cooper are doing.

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 04:59 AM) Catching a game in Toronto next Sunday as part of my honeymoon (getting married Friday), excited to watch the Jays. Plan on picking up a Buerhle shirsey. Prices as expected are much higher since the last time I caught a Sox game there in 2009 when we were able to walk up and get club level for under $50 Canadian. Stubhub is all $30-40 for the Upper Deck right now and where we sat then is around $100 American. Back then the exchange rate was pretty close where as now our dollar is stronger than Canada's. Had to watch Roy Halladay own us that day... we jumped to a 2-0 lead on Halladay then got shut out which brought back bad memories from the year before in 2008 (infamous blow up doll clubhouse scandal broke that day!) when Halladay out-dueled Contreras who actually pitched the whole game and lost 3-2. If you can work out a deal for a suite in the hotel overlooking the field, I highly recommend it!

At least they face a lefty tomorrow. Hopefully they remove Samardzija from the rotation

What a terrible at bat by Sanchez

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 03:49 AM) How come u guys don't like Swirsk? Glad Saladino got that hit. He'd been struggling. Eaton walked to bring tying run to the plate and you would have never known by his tone

Hey nice swing by Saladino

Feel free to show the slightest bit of excitement Chuck.

Shouldn't have 2nd worst hitter batting 2nd

QUOTE (Saufley @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 12:20 AM) It has become so bad and such a joke that I don't even care anymore!! RV is an awful manager! It would even be worse if he was being told how to manage this team by KW or RH. Just fire all 3

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 11:18 PM) Rightfully so. I can't stand Samardzija at this point and can't wait for him to be gone. Please god don't accept the QO

Booing has started

Man does he freaking suck. Give his starts to Johnson.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 08:43 PM) No trayce again. What a terrible organization

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 05:58 PM) That's because of his s***ty first two months. He's had a fine year. Over the last 30 days, he's 167th out of 179 for qualified fWAR

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 04:15 PM) Melky isn't producing? He's got 61 RBIs on a s*** bad offense. His HR total should be a little higher but whatever. He's not a problem. 141st out of 155 qualified hitters in terms of fWAR. He's sucked this year.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 04:05 AM) Good thing Thompson didn't play tonight Probably don't want him to prove he's been than Avi

Good thing they have benched their hottest hitter 2 of their last 3 games. Shutout in both

Saladino looks like a utility player

Offense is just awful. Seems like only Abreu can hit a homer in this lineup

What the hell type of swing is that by Avi? I just pray they get rid of him this offseason. This team is healthy and two of the worst players in baseball are batting 4/5 in the lineup. Fail by Hahn.
