Alcantara looks pretty damn good this week for the Cubs. Very explosive

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 08:49 PM) Yeah, they may have gained a starter in Arrieta, but this version of Wood almost cancels it out Exactly, they better hope Wood stops the bleeding on his season.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 13, 2014 -> 07:41 PM) Hey fathom, what happened to Travis Wood? Yeah, he's having a miserable season. It's strange to me they keep saying he is one of their core building blocks. It's great though, as it's one more question mark they have instead of a sure-fire starter.

Beck with a less than impressive start.

Ravelo playing 3rd tonight...has he played there at all this year?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 04:43 AM) https://twitter.com/SethLakso/status/487804044011118592 Ummm... Is a reliever getting sent down or might Danks be close to being traded?

Is it a bad time to mention Charlotte's relievers gave up 16 runs tonight?

QUOTE (MAX @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 01:37 AM) I'm willing to bet that a lot of the same people who complained that we never go over slot are complaining that we did with Rodon. People should be thrilled that Hahn was willing to do something that would have never been possible 5 years ago

QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 01:29 AM) Mr. Hahn, please send Rienzo to the minors, I can't take this anymore. So excited to see Rodon next year. No doubt he could be in this rotation right now.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 01:09 AM) For a big league 1b? sure. For a minor leaguer who had 75 games out of high school before this season? totally uncalibrated. But wouldn't that number indicate he's not a good fielder (at the moment), and could be a reason for the enormous error totals for the W-S infield this year?

So is it just back luck that our pitching sucks with 2 outs this season?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 02:00 AM) You're actually projecting the long-term defensive development in an important way for a guy who has played 156 games above the level of "high school"? 14 errors in 88 games for a first baseman is quite high, wouldn't you agree?

Wow, Swisher with the bomb off of Noesi. Pretty terrible start for Noesi, who can't get out of the 5th.

Noesi doing a great job of letting Cleveland score every time the Sox score.

Another two out run. This team plays very stupid baseball.

Barnum has 14 errors on the year at first base. Pretty obvious he's not a good fielder. On the bright side, maybe this helps explains some of Anderson's errors.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 01:42 AM) Cleto gave up 5 runs in 1.2 IP. Knights bullpen is a travesty. Kind of stunning how bad Cleto and Boggs have been this year.

Viciedo is 0 for his last 15 with 8 strikeouts...get on the phone Hahn

The struggles of so many pitchers on this team to throw strikes is maddening.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 12:18 AM) Leury rocking a .178/.213/.244 line in almost 100 PA. Safe to say the Rangers are gonna get a better player or players for Rios at this deadline than we did. I have a feeling Saladino or Semien will be taking over his utility role next year. He's just not a big league hitter.

Damage done against Noesi by two players struggling big time

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 11:30 PM) I need more Nieto in my life... He has show a ton more patience lately and has been having solid AB's.. Would much rather have him starting then Flowers. I don't care how young he is He has a pretty damn good line drive swing

Get that man some more at bats

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 10:53 PM) Thanks. I'm gonna watch tonight. Link I sent you is just the trailer...not sure where to find the actual doc

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 10:46 PM) No. I have to though. Link? It's a full length movie...was on ESPN or fox sports a long time ago. Jordan Farmar comes across great in it.
