QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:38 AM) Me and the guy on All in The Family. We "meatheads." Of course I hate the trade. The Sox truly could use Reed. And Davidson is horrid and the Sox have gotten a great year out of another 3B, Gillaspie, who looks like Wade Boggs, Jr. If Gillaspie could develop some power to go with the liners, he'd be quite a story. Why are we meatheads for HATING that trade? Wasn't referring to you. I was talking about the average person who isn't on a Sox message board and just looks at the stats in the paper, etc.

After thinking about this some more, JR Murphy is a likely candidate as well. I'll be honest, I'm not impressed by his minor league numbers at all.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:20 AM) Spencer Adams 1.0 IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 1K Have there been any reports from the AZL about his velocity?

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:15 AM) How soon do you think he'll be back in the Sox lineup ? I hope they take their time with him, unless they let him play DH. If not, he should be down there at least 2 weeks.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 03:11 AM) Catch a ball in LF and we're probably winners tonight Yep...the defense has been hesitant this series.

PK has owned Perkins of late

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:06 AM) Should have won this f***ing game 8th loss of the year for Belisario

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:58 AM) Part of it is coincidence. Part of it is a kid who should be in AA, still learning the league, pitch selection etc. I think it's more coincidence, but it's funny in the same way the Saturday streak was to start the year. Nieto has played much better this year than I thought he would.

Webb has to learn how to pitch up in the zone better.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:55 AM) Tough to blame Hahn too much with two of the best BP arms going down Have to disagree with you here. Lindstrom wasn't that great even when healthy, and the guys he actually paid for this offseason in the pen have flopped. I can't imagine how bad this pen would have been if Putnam and Petricka didn't step up.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:53 AM) Well we need to congratulate Rick Hahn on this wonderful bullpen. Good lord. I can't imagine what the meathead, casual fan thinks of the Reed for Davidson trade when all they do is look at Reed's save total and Davidson's .198 average in AAA.

Looking like another loss for Nieto's record

This bullpen just sucks in every aspect

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:52 AM) Yea he was in one of those zones where he was feeling in the groove or invincible and wanted so badly to get the go ahead run in scoring position. If he gets to 2nd there, he takes the bat out of the hands of Beckham

Avi 3-5, with one of his outs being a line out to 3rd.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:50 AM) It was extremely close and Hawk was saying it was definitive that Eaton got his right hand in there. Problem is it looks like his right hand came off the base pretty quickly, and his left hand wasn't on the base yet. You also have to love Hawk and Stone not even saying the umps made a decision after the replay.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:49 AM) Well it was off the guy's glove before he could take a step really Ya, which is fine to anticipate it's caught. Doesn't mean you go for it though, especially with Willingham out of the game.

No way should he have tried going to 2nd after not running out of the box. That's the third bad base running play by Eaton in the last 2 innings.

Looks safe to me

well, this team played idiotic baseball this inning.

You need a steal...why not Leury?

ADA chases ball 4

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:36 AM) Which is why you don't give away outs when you're on offense. You know I hate the bunt, but it's not like Eaton was up bunting. It was a hitter that should be in AA this season.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:34 AM) This bullpen needs to be fixed. Hahn absolutely flopped with his bullpen contracts this year.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:34 AM) Bullpen gives it all back again. I'm pretty sure Belisario has like a 50 ERA with Nieto catching.
