fathom

Team has no concept of the zone

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:35 AM) fathom is right. The Cubs are coming and they're coming soon. Russell isn't even up yet. Rumors he might be up to play 2nd as soon as this weekend. What they really need to have happen is Baez boost his stock again in AAA so they can deal him for young pitching. As for this year, they play with an amazing amount of confidence for a team that hasn't won anything before.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:37 AM) Maybe it's time I change my mind and start thinking this is a good idea. Get rid of Sale and the org won't be tempted to make all-in moves with an org unprepared for them. Thing is, I don think Boston would give up both Betts and Swihart for anyone.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:36 AM) We've had some truly pathetic ABs. This game was over before it started. Just a flat team

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:32 AM) The Chris Sale to Boston "rumors" will surely start again. Well if they want to give us Betts, Swihart, Devers, Rodriguez and more...then go for it

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:30 AM) It's a good question, would you take our last decade including '05 or the Tigers' last decade? Easily ours. Tigers fans can't pop in a 21st century AL central domination DVD

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:28 AM) If they under perform and are out of it by June. Well the shark will be sold. After that who knows. As he should be. Another reason it's important that Q turns his season around.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:25 AM) I could care less if we're popular. But we need to start winning some f***ing games. You want fans to show? Start showing a pulse and win some damn games. Also hire a f***ing legit manager. Yep, the Sox were counting on increased attendance to fund the moves they made. If the Sox suck this year and attendance drops again, then they will almost definitely be cutting payroll.

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:17 AM) And 2 steals for him today. Up to 6 on the season now. Only had 10 all of last year. And only one error! Hopefully he starts walking once a week

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:16 AM) Ugly start for Montas: 5 IP, 5 H, 3 R, 6 BB, 4 SO Feels like it hasn't been a great start to the season for most of the top arms, though I haven't been looking too closely at the numbers. Something I've noticed across the minors is it seems the top pitchers had dominant first starts and subpar second starts

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:17 AM) With the amount of games against your division you have to win divisional games to have a chance. Losing large amounts of games to your divisional foes makes it nearly impossible. The pitching in the division (besides Twins) seems like it's going to be really good. Indians have 4 guys with all-world stuff

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:15 AM) Sad part is the cubs are all they are to be and are playing well. The sox will have zero coverage and interest in about a week. As I said earlier, the Sox have just killed all momentum they had as a franchise. I'm honestly not sure how to get things turned around.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:12 AM) Its early. We keep on playing like this against the division and early will become hey look X team once in a 100 years came back from 20 down to win the division. And Pearl Harbor/in or out threads

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:12 AM) Didn't Abreu get a single with Eaton on base in the first? Sorry thought he walked in the first.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:08 AM) Lol shut out being shut out again. Bauer had bad command and hung a lot of pitches today. Sox don't have a hit with someone on base today.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:07 AM) Wow didn't expect this board to turn on Robin that quick. He brings nothing to the table. Team came out flat this year and already made two of the dumbest decisions a Sox manager has made in a long time.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:03 AM) Most definitely No doubt

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 03:00 AM) This could be the 6th time out of 12 the Sox offense scores 1 run or less. What really sucks is Ventura absolutely should be on the hot seat, but this organization is too loyal.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:58 AM) 1) plz staph 2) what happened? 2 run double on an upper 90s fastball. Reached base 3 more times tonight. That 2-3-4 is incredible.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:56 AM) Oh look, the Tigers won again. 6.5 out

Well Kris Bryant is incredible.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:51 AM) Fixed Definitely true with RF and 3B. This team added some good talent this offseason, but it goes to show how big of a mess they were in prior.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:49 AM) If Ventura goes who replaces him? I have guessed Cooper this year then Gardenhire next

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 01:45 AM) He is worse in the OF than he was in 2014, which was worse than he was in 2013. Hopefully he will hit enough to DH when LaRoche is gone. Should have made him a LF after the injury

So we have a RF who can't hit for power or field.
