  1. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 04:47 AM) I wouldn't trade Sale or Abreu. Why can't Sox do what I've been advocating for a month? Trade everybody not named Sale, Abreu, Avisail? Or at least trade Melky, Shark, Robertson, Lexi, LaRoche, Duke. I guarantee you Hahn could get a ton of players for these guys. Get the right players and we might have something to look forward to next year. I think the Royals actually might take Melky after the Rios fiasco. We get Colon in a deal for Melky and Beckham or Soto and maybe we're off and running. What's your obsession with Christian Colon? Also, you basically want them to trade everyone they acquired this offseason. Why would you then trust them to make a good trade if you believe a lot of the new additions were bad choices?
  2. Cubs now 6 games better than the Sox. A lot of that is due to better defense and base running.
  3. Why would you pitch to Castro there? 12th walkoff for luckiest team I have seen this year. They had no business winning tonight.
  4. QUOTE (lord chas @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 04:12 AM) Reds load bases in 9th no outs get nothing. here comes the 57th walk off Cubs win Frazier hits top of fence in center. You could see the magic escape coming with the Reds AAA hitters coming up. Cubs have a giant horse shoe up their ass.
  5. Amazing how the Sox get screwed on every borderline instant replay, but the Cubs get the benefit of the doubt.
  6. QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 11:55 PM) I believe that if the Sox are out of it at the deadline not only should they try to bring in some young talent into the system, but I believe that they should be hoping for the highest draft pick possible, that could do some serious wonders for the org. Let me say that I think the team should be in the mix for the division in 2016, but with another high draft pick and what not they could open and prolong their window. Theo Epstein always said that if your team is out of it after the deadline, you might as well hope for the highest draft pick possible. If they fall out of contention and trade away some of the veterans, you won't have to root for them to lose. Their roster would be so weak, the losses would pile up. Don't forget Rodon will likely not pitch the last month or so as well, which means it's possible to have 3/5 of your rotation be something like Danks, Beck and Johnson/Carroll if Samardzija gets traded.
  7. If that's optimism, I'd hate to see what a pessimistic view would be be like.
  8. This team is so disappointing. No one to Blame but the players when they become sellers in a month
  9. I don't think Vince Coleman is going to put 2015 white sox base running consultant on his resume
  10. They keep chasing and jamming themselves on inside pitches.
  11. Big inning for Sale here, the top of Tampa's order has hurt us this series.
  12. Bat goes farther than anything he's hit lately. Pitch right down the plate, and of course he whiffs.
  13. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 06:25 PM) I wish it was only 10 years, Ray Durham last one worth a dam in 1995. Crede for me
  14. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 06:20 PM) It's not like Micah was hitting horribly But his fielding was historically poor
  15. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 06:18 PM) I am afraid like always with the Sox hitting prospects Johnson and Sanchez will be busters. Probably a safe assumption until someone proves you wrong (in the last 10 years or so).
  16. Iassogna has no business being an umpire in the majors.
  17. Sox keep chasing that inside pitch well off the plate.
  18. Sox swinging at some awful pitches here. Avi's average under .290
  19. It's simply astonishing how bad the defense has been.
  20. 1-10, 5K for LaRoche in this series. Surprising considering they faced righties.
  21. The base running was fine there. It was going to be close play at plate if it was good throw.
