QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 03:01 AM) I don't care if he hits into a double play, this is Ventura's worst managerial decision yet Hawk is so pissed

Um, why is Carroll still in?

Ha, that's our #2 hitter. Looking forward to next year where hopefully guys who should be in AA are no longer in the lineup.

Sox catchers strike out a ton

6-5 game, Viciedo starting to hammer those hangers

It's scary how similar Axelrod and Carroll's WHIP and average against are when comparing 2013 Axelrod and 2014 Carroll. It's very disappointing to see the same junk in the 5th spot again this season. Hahn has got to put the team in position next year to have better depth.

Carroll is the 2014 version of Axelrod. WHIP all the way up to 1.64

Weaver has nothing on these pitches

Addison Reed still throws meatballs, I see

Conor!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 01:18 AM) Angels own the Sox right now. They should, they have better players

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 01:18 AM) DJ Carrasco was the GOAT long man Sean Lowe was better

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 02:10 AM) This is going to be ugly tonight. This has to be it for him. It's sad how much the pitching in this organization sucks after the big 3.

JD Martinez has been an incredible find for the Tigers this year. Hopefully it's just a short hot streak and not a career rejuvenation like with Jose Bautista.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 01:26 AM) Game 2 lineup: Eaton 8, Garcia 4, Abreu DH, Dunn 3, Ramirez 6, Gillaspie 5, Viciedo 9, De Aza 7, Nieto 2. Carroll pitches. Haha, what?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 01:19 AM) Tim Anderson--fractured wrist 4-6 weeks. Of course...awful week of injuries for the best hitting/pitching prospect in the organization.

Disappointing game, especially given the quick 3-0 lead. Abreu continues to be a one man show.

Joe Smith is engaged to Allie LaForce

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:55 PM) If you would have asked me I would have said Rich Hills been out of the league for 4 years. On the mound for the AJ/Barrett game

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:55 PM) If the Angels add a couple bullpen arms, they can win it all. They also probably need another starter. Bad news for them is their farm system is horrendous.

G. Richards was someone the Sox were linked to in the supplemental round of the 2009 draft, but they took Phegley instead

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:40 PM) Weaver pitching game 2? Just forfeit and save the bullets. Besides Nieto hitting his first homer

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:35 PM) A closer in Charlotte isn"t going to get a lot of work. Ha, good point. Just have him pitch every other game or down there.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:32 PM) Unless they are better at getting him control and command in Charlotte, I don't see the point. He walks a ton and leads the team in wild pitches. He doesn't have to give up hits to give up runs. More consistent innings where hopefully he can work on things instead of dealing with the stress of the majors. The velocity is there, but his release point isn't.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:29 PM) Remember when people were b****ing about Webb not pitching the 8th inning? Still think best bet is sending him to Charlotte and allow him to close.
