According to chicagosports.com, Eaton's going to be out at least a few days. The hits keep on coming...just not by the offense.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:52 AM) It's cool how Petricka is now out for days whilst Cleto is nice and rested You never know when you'll need Cleto to be your closer.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:48 AM) Why is Petrika in his third inning in a two run game? Nice work Robin. This roster is in shambles right now. So many ineffective players that are causing those performing well to get overexposed.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:44 AM) Petricka being forced to "wear it" tonight in order to rest the bullpen. I think we've seen multiple innings for the relievers more this year already than in all of 2005. Cleto probably should have started this inning.

Again, Sox bite and claw to score a run...while Rangers lead off the inning with long ball.

Another hit for Micah

Good start to the season for Alexei...give him the day off tomorrow.

Nice Tank! How about an extra base hit??

Hawk is insane for thinking Conor should have scored on that.

Should be an interesting lineup tomorrow with Eaton likely out. Not quite sure who will lead off.

Just can't get a ball over the fence.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 03:08 AM) That makes no sense at all. You're cool with him deciding to swing no matter where the pitch is? He had to literally bend over to hit the first one, the second was well low also. Didn't see his first AB, but no issues with this last AB.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:03 AM) Two IDIOTIC bases loaded at bats by Alexei tonight. He's been crushing first pitch fastballs this year...no problem with his approach there.

Ugh, this offense is brutal right now.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:49 AM) I feel like Semien is in Beckham mode. Looks like he is just popping everything up after hitting a lot during spring. Hopefully this is just one of those bad stretches every team has during the year. Haven't seen enough of what made him successful last year, but it seems like he's having a lot of trouble getting his swing started on time. He's only been able to get the head of the bat out and hit the ball with authority a few times.

Big Semien fan, but holy cow is he awful right now.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:45 AM) Nooooooo... But probably. I would rather see if Mitchell can find some kind of luck I'd rather see Mitchell also, but they probably want someone who can play CF. Maybe Gorkys?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:43 AM) 2014 is going from bad to worse in a hurry, hell a 0-7 road trip would not shock me right now. The balloon popped as soon as Bradley Jr. doubled off of Leury. There was actually good energy it seemed around the team.

Hamstring issues for Eaton, as he tweaked it last night. I wonder who they would call up if he goes on the DL? Tekotte?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 01:40 AM) That reminded me of a physics problem of a small mass bouncing off a much larger mass elastically. I was thinking of a different reason

And Eaton got hurt after that stupid play by him.

Well, that would have been something if Avi hit that grounder.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 02:37 AM) None of our LFs want to hit the damn ball I hate the Avi injury so much

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 20, 2014 -> 01:34 AM) I hear ya.........just not getting any clutch hits. Not getting nearly enough extra base hits.
