What the hell was that by Viciedo?

Dunn is all over Masterson tonight

QUOTE (flavum @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:56 AM) And yeah, I think the free fall has begun. Could get ugly until Sale and Eaton get back. Hopefully Ventura tries to change the lineup around. I'm fine with ADA leading off, but I think Alexei should bat 2nd.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:48 PM) Can we put gordon out of his misery... PLEASE Can we trade him, Konerko and Hawk for a can of pringles?

QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:42 PM) I don't think they can afford to wait 3 or 4 years for this pick to develop unless they plan on signing one of the big 3 free agent starters this winter. Don't get me wrong, I'd be stunned if they took a high school pitcher that high. Everyone you hear speak from the organization seems to hate the idea of taking a high school pitcher as well.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:41 AM) Fantastic effort by the offense so far. Righties have no chance against Masterson. It's sad how much this offense misses Gillaspie.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:35 PM) So, you're ok drafting a high school arm over Hoffman and/or Rodon? I'm fine with Aiken or Kolek

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:33 PM) He was awesome defensively at 1b for the Sox. That was cause Ozzie practiced defense in ST

Please don't get swept by the Cubs again

These teams are freaking awful.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:25 AM) I think the pitching staff looks in trouble when you look at it at what will hopefully be its worst point of the season. I would still be surprised if it looked this bad in a few months. I'd say that the lineup looks like it's in trouble right now too. Eaton looks like he may be a Quentin-post-2009 type who became available because he can't stay healthy, Garcia needed this year and it could well screw him over long term, tons of people want to move Viciedo to DH, and we traded away a valuable chip for a young 3b who is having a ton of trouble at Charlotte right now. The way it looks right now, the positions we have confidence in for 2015 if we're trying to contend are 1b, DH, maybe Catcher if we believe in Flowers, and SS. 2b looks crappy, 3b looks crappy, Garcia will have a spot but that's a "rebuilding" type move, and the OF looks bad. Oh, and about that bench. Welcome to rebuilding. If you're going to stress about the rotation, the lineup looks just about as busted except it has Jose Abreu. With the lineup though, there are pieces (Eaton, Avi, Micah Johnson) that you hope can be fixtures in the starting lineup. That doesn't seem true for the pitching.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:25 AM) May is going to suuuuuuuuck. Hopefully the news on Sale continues to be positive.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:25 AM) Sox bad luck continues...........Dam Agreed just seems like nothing can go right.

Unreal

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2014 -> 12:20 AM) Who should play instead? Leury? Yes, gets Alexei a break and another lefty in the lineup. Has Alexei started every game?

Why even play Alexei against Masterson?

Another huge break!

Nice shift leads to DP

Is the wind blowing in or something? Thought Dunn crushed that. Meanwhile, the offense continues to struggle with RISP.

Abreu's had bad swings against Masterson all year.

Beckham has the entire right side open, yet he pulls the outside sinker.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:56 PM) Well, with Eaton out.... Speaking of that, any updates on Davidson?

Wow, nimble Viciedo!

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 11:54 PM) No Courtney Hawkins again Just saw this, thanks futuresox:) FutureSox.com ‏@FutureSox 2h OF Courtney Hawkins will miss one more game tonight, to finish 3 gm league suspension related to his ejection last Tuesday night.

No Courtney Hawkins again
