8/2 Game Thread- Sox vs Twins 6:10 PM CT
QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:58 AM) Part of it is coincidence. Part of it is a kid who should be in AA, still learning the league, pitch selection etc. I think it's more coincidence, but it's funny in the same way the Saturday streak was to start the year. Nieto has played much better this year than I thought he would.

Webb has to learn how to pitch up in the zone better.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:55 AM) Tough to blame Hahn too much with two of the best BP arms going down Have to disagree with you here. Lindstrom wasn't that great even when healthy, and the guys he actually paid for this offseason in the pen have flopped. I can't imagine how bad this pen would have been if Putnam and Petricka didn't step up.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:53 AM) Well we need to congratulate Rick Hahn on this wonderful bullpen. Good lord. I can't imagine what the meathead, casual fan thinks of the Reed for Davidson trade when all they do is look at Reed's save total and Davidson's .198 average in AAA.

Looking like another loss for Nieto's record

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:52 AM) Yea he was in one of those zones where he was feeling in the groove or invincible and wanted so badly to get the go ahead run in scoring position. If he gets to 2nd there, he takes the bat out of the hands of Beckham

Avi 3-5, with one of his outs being a line out to 3rd.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:50 AM) It was extremely close and Hawk was saying it was definitive that Eaton got his right hand in there. Problem is it looks like his right hand came off the base pretty quickly, and his left hand wasn't on the base yet. You also have to love Hawk and Stone not even saying the umps made a decision after the replay.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:49 AM) Well it was off the guy's glove before he could take a step really Ya, which is fine to anticipate it's caught. Doesn't mean you go for it though, especially with Willingham out of the game.

No way should he have tried going to 2nd after not running out of the box. That's the third bad base running play by Eaton in the last 2 innings.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 02:36 AM) Which is why you don't give away outs when you're on offense. You know I hate the bunt, but it's not like Eaton was up bunting. It was a hitter that should be in AA this season.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:34 AM) Bullpen gives it all back again. I'm pretty sure Belisario has like a 50 ERA with Nieto catching.

Belisario would be another DFA candidate if not for the rest of this horrendous bullpen.

And Conor being hesitant going to 2nd on that grounder cost them a run as well.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:29 AM) This is the 1st time I've seen Blowsario. (lucky me) It seems the Twins know he's going for the outside corner. What's up with that? His slider has been so ineffective this year, so they know everything is going to be one speed.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 3, 2014 -> 01:27 AM) In before JoshPR telling Feeky about his unlucky FIP. He's been awful this year, plain and simple. Could possibly get his 8th loss of the season if this goes bad.

Belisario getting booed off the field.

Pull him, seen the Belisario meltdown far too often. He's struggled to avoid the big inning.
