Gillaspie needs to stand closer to the plate against LHP.

QUOTE (Joxer_Daly @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:17 PM) Tank!!! WTF, man?? What happened?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 11:07 PM) Stiff neck for Konerko Clearly a result of tipping his cap too much this season

So why was Wells used and not Wise?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:03 PM) Konerko out They say why?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:02 PM) Oh boy. Had to flip channel, what happened?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:59 PM) He actually was doing pretty well out there last year until he said he preferred to play LF. Since that came out, he has looked pretty bad defensively. Even in LF. Agreed, it's just one more thing that's carried over from the end of last year into this year.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 09:58 PM) He can get it in another uniform. Sure seems like he will be

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 09:56 PM) Not to me he sucked ass in LF . He just doesn't have the experience in LF it seems

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 09:55 PM) De Aza is not a everyday player he is a 4th OF. He could be a very effective LF/#8 or 9 hitter.

Oakland/Beane does such a great job of getting platoon players like Freiman that can beat up on a particular type of pitcher and not get exposed against their weakness.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:50 PM) Wow Alejandro did that ever look awful. Why does Quintana suck so much the 3rd time thru the order? Lack of adjustments by the catcher?

De Aza is not long for this organization if they're going to keep Viciedo in LF. Just like they knew Rios wasn't a CF, it seems they know he's not one either.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:48 PM) I think he's at least in part at the "Fun bad" point. Particularly with that rundown Stoney's been the angrier one today.

Once again, Quintana struggling the 3rd time thru the order.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:45 PM) And as usual, the Sox have no idea how to properly execute a rundown. How did these guys do it last year? Honestly, it seems like a fluke now, as everything else we've seen the last 5 years or so shows this is a terrible fundamental team.

Alexei now has gone 193 at bats without a home run.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 09:22 PM) He can be reunited with Paddy, Molina and Zach Stewart. I doubt Molina and Stewart will still be around by then

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 09:18 PM) It's hysterical that a supposed home run hitting team is 13th in the league in homers. Put it this way...the Tigers have 2 less homers in the 4th inning today than 3/4 of our infield have all season.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:18 PM) Credit to the Jays for eating $20.6 million. But wow, AA's going to lose his job with more moves like this one. I'll take him

So the Sox have 6 homers all year from their 2b, SS and 3b combined.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:11 PM) Frank wanted Viciedo hitting 3rd. I'd go with him 5th with De Aza batting 4th (Alexei leading off, Gillaspie 2nd). Of course, that would still be just about the worst lineup in baseball.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:10 PM) So was Thomas in the pre game I'm not sure what, but I think a big change(s) is coming in the next two weeks.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2013 -> 10:06 PM) Jason Hammel ejected for hitting Tuiasosopo Back-to-back-to-back for Tigers.

Konerko missing these pitches by a foot.
