QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 02:45 AM) I'm amazed at how many baseball players today like Wilkins have no chance of hitting the ball against a pitcher who throws from the same side they hit. I mean is Wilkins EVER going to be able to hit against a lefty? Gillaspie's splits are much more concerning, IMO

Andy Wilkins is one of the more overmatched prospects the Sox have called up in a long time. As I've said before, it worries me that AAAA players like Wilkins, Danks and Phegley dominated at Charlotte this year, but Davidson couldn't hit at all.

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 02:40 AM) This is about as bad a game as I have ever seen. I was thinking this was the equivalent of the first quarter of the Bears game from Sunday

Avi is so fast once he gets going

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 03:33 AM) JD Martinez 3-run homer with 2 outs. Tigers got this division. He's been better than Miguel Cabrera this year. What an unbelievable signing for the Tigers

Looking forward to seeing Finnegan pitch tonight for KC

Thanks Brandon Phillips

Tonight has to be like the 4th or 5th time this year Arrieta has had a no-hitter after 5 innings.

Awful start by Bassitt tonight. He has to make drastic improvements to his command to start at this level.

Bassitt has mediocre command of his fastball. I'm not the biggest fan of his mechanics.

It's amazing to me Ventura isn't more on the hot seat with all the bad base running and defensive mistakes. Record aside, this is two straight years of horribly played baseball.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 16, 2014 -> 03:40 AM) To me it's more thinking of protected. I can care less where we pick from 5-11, as long as it's protected. Barring any high schoolers surprising, the top talent in next year's draft isn't as strong as this years. I'm a big time prospect whore, but I don't want to see us picking top 3 again as it means we haven't improved at all as an organization. I'm in total agreement...I'm fine if they stay in the range they're at, but I would hate to see the Sox lose their protection for a few meaningless wins the last two weeks.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2014 -> 04:38 AM) That was such bad baseball by the Sox late. Wild pitches. Lousy defense. Amazing. Tyler Flowers was awful behind the plate the last few innings

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Sep 16, 2014 -> 03:36 AM) Trying to think draft pick. Failing. But trying. Eaton, Abreu and Avi all had multiple hits tonight. Danks had a great start. What more could you ask for?

Wow, what an incredible way to lose. If I wanted the Sox to win tonight, I'd be furious.

Nothing like a "closer" that gets rocked by lefties. He should be a 7th or 8th inning guy next year, at best.

Wow, quite a way to let them tie it. Flowers with a HORRIBLE effort.

Best main event in Raw history?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 16, 2014 -> 02:32 AM) Tomas will be in the $100M range. Now, I know that this could take away from our budget, but I don't think that we can waste prime years of Sale and Abreu. I think we should go all in this offseason, sign Tomas, and make a trade involving Avisail Garcia and Carlos Sanchez for a proven #2/3 RHSP. I like the idea, but I doubt you could get someone like Latos for that package

Semien really seems to struggle getting the bat through the zone vs righties.

Masterson and Nolasco are the two worst AL starters I've seen this year (of those that have made more than a few starts). I want nothing to do with Masterson going forward.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 16, 2014 -> 12:56 AM) Shields doesn't have it tonight. His stuff seems to be declining, in my opinion.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 12:33 PM) If he was sitting there around picks 9-10 and still thought of fairly highly you wouldn't be interested? Nope, because that means the Astros weren't the only time that thought his ligament issue was potentially devastating.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 04:47 AM) This is the game they needed to steal after losing last week. This season isn't over just yet Cutler manned up 13-14, 112 yards, 3 TD

Wow, what an amazing win
