Thing is, Ventura might be the greatest manager in the world. However, it's not working with this team/organization. They've played horrible baseball ever since they collapsed down the stretch a few years ago. It's beyond time for a change. It's a lot easier to fire coaches than it is every player that isn't performing.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 03:41 AM) Good news is we'll get a nice press conference from Robin telling us he's tired of talking about losing and all the players know this is bad. So it's all good. He needs to start borrowing quotes from Lovie. " This sun will come up tomorrow" or my favorite "We'll go from there" "Melky is my #2 hitter"

Melky's played this year like he's 45 years old. Absolutely no bat speed. He has to cheat on every pitch to even try and pull the ball, which he can only do consistently on offspeed pitches.

Melky is a freaking joke. A complete and total bust.

Not going to see a bigger meatball than that.

With the way things have gone, Melky will single to CF and Soto will get thrown out at home due to a bad slide.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 02:31 AM) I stand by this comment. Hopefully Eaton here can save our asses, but I think pulling Sale was an incredibly stupid decision. Sale's health is more important that finishing with 71 wins instead of 70

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 02:28 AM) Trade the poor guy to a contender. He deserves a shot. Dodgers for Seager, Urias and another arm.

If it was the NBA, he'd be demanding a trade.

This has to be the last game for Ventura and Steverson, right?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 02:26 AM) And Greg called him "The best closer in baseball" yesterday. I laughed. He's the 4th best closer in the division, right?

Flowers inability to block a pitch in the dirt killed the Sox that inning.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 03:22 AM) I just feel bad for Sale. Agreed

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 03:23 AM) Break it up Hahn.... Can Hahn go as well?

Nothing like having an underachieving, high-priced closer on an 100 loss team.

When's Robertson going to stop getting burned on his fastball? Almost all the damage vs him this year has come on that pitch.

Chris Sale should demand a trade.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 03:20 AM) Hahahahhahahaha. Good god. Someone better get fired tonight. What a losing bunch.

Yep, on the fastball. Simply horrible pitch selection. Robertson shaping up to be another bad signing.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 20, 2015 -> 03:18 AM) You can't put a fielder behind the catcher can you? Nope

Robertson vs Gallo is one of the most likely strikeout match-ups in the history of baseball

Didn't look like a particularly hard pitch to keep in front of Flowers

In love with the fastball too much

Nice call to pull Sale. One game isn't worth a high pitch count.

I wonder how injured Avi is? He's not getting his legs into his swing, causing a lack of bat speed.
