Santiago could not have come across better in that interview.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 12:58 AM) For someone with good speed, Rios has to be one of the worst guys out of the box in all of baseball. I think it's all about his swing. I wouldn't say that was a textbook example of great hustle either. Something the announcers have mentioned and I've heard Farmer allude to is just how awful the Sox approach is at the plate and how easy they are to game plan against.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20130615 Hawkins 1-2 with BB and 2 SB so far. Micah Johnson continues to put up big time numbers.

These announcers don't think very much of Viciedo it seems.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 03:15 AM) If he wasn't Buddy Bell's boy, he'd be close to gone at this point. Can we just get rid of both?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 04:11 AM) This team looks content in losing. This team looked like they were obsessed with the short porch in LF tonight. But yes, I agree they're content in losing.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 04:10 AM) Tyler Flowers struck out three times. His average went up though. Good god he is awful. Not sure if you were watching, but it was an infield hit that Carter absolutely should have picked.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 04:08 AM) Looks like we didnt score an earned run. Rock bottom impossibly gets lower and lower. Not one player you can pencil in to the starting lineup 2 years from now and be confident they'll still be here. Really disappointed in Viciedo's horrible season, as that's probably the worst thing of this season so far. Hahn just has to try to clear as much payroll as possible the next year and a half and completely change the core of this offense.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 04:05 AM) "Yeah, it was a great game. Sale pitched his tail off and so did their guy. Just came up short is all. Tip your cap and get 'em tomorrow." Is that what he said?

QUOTE (mike89128 @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 04:04 AM) Sale didn't deserve this. Sale and Crain are too good for this current team

Unless Sale has a no-hitter going into the 9th inning, he better not throw over 115 pitches again this year.

Flowers missed that last pitch by a foot. Continues to be just about the worst late inning hitter I've ever seen. Brutal loss, two straight games where Alexei's defense cost the Sox the game.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 02:57 AM) One time T Flow I can't believe they're in a situation where he has to bat against a RHP closer.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 02:48 AM) So does Robin pinch hit at all this inning ? Should be Gillaspie and Danks for Kepp and Wells Gillaspie does not have much power anywhere else but directly to RF.

Any chance they release Jared Mitchell soon?

It's hard to think of another Sox pitching performance that was less deserving of a loss.

123 pitches and counting...ugh

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 03:40 AM) 15 mil this year. 15 mil next year. Still have to hold out hope he retires after this season.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 03:36 AM) We suck! It takes a special team to bat someone full time against a LHP who's below .100. Dunn now 5-52 on the year.

Quality ABs by Rios, haha

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 02:28 AM) I feel sorry for him. He doesn't deserve this team Well, there's a reason he'll be our only All-Star representative

13K, no earned runs and in line for the loss

Nice focus this team has

7 LOB, Alexei batting a little over .200 with RISP. He's another person that absolutely should be on the trade block.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 03:04 AM) That train has already come and gone. Nothing to do but hold onto him now...the problem still exists that we don't have more than one 25-40 potential homer hitters within 2 years of Chicago in the minors, and that's a very iffy Trayce Thompson. So we're stuck with him. You have absolutely no clue if that's true
