Let's head em on out with a win

Here's to some Lone Star runs for the Sox and they beat Texas

Game time is 6:05 PM MDT and I think Quintana is up to pitch

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 18, 2014 -> 01:05 PM) Now that he's struggling the real worry ought to be that he'll lock himself into the same cycle of overcompensating and making bad adjustments we've seen several guys get into. Minors for more seasoning, but he can hit for more power than L Garcia so kind of mixed feelings on him right noiw

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Apr 17, 2014 -> 07:00 PM) Definitely would not have run out of pitchers had they been able to throw the ball for strikes.(minus lindstrom and webb before he gassed) MLB network guys criticized Robin but you are right too. We need a bullpen that can throw strikes. We had like 11 walks? Ridiculous

I will take Abreu

ALPHA DOG wants Alexei Ramirez tonite

Alright. Sorry folks my computer was on the fritz but let's drink a Lone Star to victory lane

Viciedo

Last the MLB Network guys were praising Dunn. He seems to be seeing he ball real good and working the count. One even said he always though the Big Donkey could hit .300 if he wanted too. But, folks are sourced on Adam and he made a lot of money to struggle and strike out a lot. But, if his approach as changed I think we might see the 40 homers and 100 RBI's with a pretty decent average and lots of walks. That is hard to replace for sure. But, I don't know if Dunn wants to play past 2014 and I certainly don't think the Sox will pay $14 plus million for sure to keep him around. You can't make signing decisions this early anyway but I have a feeling this will be an interesting season.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 10:05 PM) Downs hasn't been able to get anyone out. Veal isn't good. Downs has 1.2 IP 3 ER 4 BB....I'll give him a little more time but I'd sign mijares and put him in AAA for a couple weeks Maybe Coop can fix em? And then again maybe not

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 11:54 PM) Yes, I believe Marcus is already better than Gordon. Semien should be our starting 2b right now. After 14 games you say this? I remember hw Josh Fields was anointed as the next 3Bman of the future based on half a year stats and where did he go?

I have an awfully hard time with the hate Beckham group many of whom were hating on Alexei last season and the off season. Now that clamor has stopped and it's hate Beckham. Gordon is a good talent and is a top notch defender. He seemed to be coming around with the bat and then gets injured. Let's give this stuff time to shake out. I like Semien over L Garcia for the super sub role although some think he might benefit from another tear in the minors. As a super IF sub Semien would get lots of playing time I think

One if by land and two if by sea and we can beat the Bosox easily with your help right here

I like lobster but not as much as beating the Bosox. Do it here

Bake some Boston beans right here

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 01:13 AM) Who should it be? The 64K dollar question for sure. I am guessing Nate Jones but no one has done their job.

QUOTE (The Mighty Mite @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 01:16 AM) Who can we trade to get some bullpen help and while we are at it, we need another starter, Paulino is horrible. I'm thinking maybe we could get something for Beckham when he's healthy, I think Semien can handle second base. You ruined a good post with this inane idea of trading Beckham. Semien hasn't proven anything yet

Did Alexei really just homer to win the game??? !!!

Viciedo Cancelled myself out as I mistakenly picked twice

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 13, 2014 -> 03:38 PM) I'm so mad Paulino ruined my perfect 2-0 start to game threads. Thanks asshole. I warned you. Now get ready for the blanket party

Flowers

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 12, 2014 -> 09:38 PM) L. Garcia just isn't MLB caliber. Not only can he not hit, but his fielding has been significant worse than advertised. I tend to agree with this. I was never much of a L Garcia fan but I thought he could make it as a sub. But, if we need any help it's in the bullpen and maybe a starter to replace Paulino. It might be early but his three starts have not been impressive at all and he hasn't made it past the 5th inning

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 12, 2014 -> 09:44 PM) Cooper has done a terrible job with the bullpen. The bullpen certainly seems to either be a work in progress or just needs to be revamped period. But, throwing strikes would help too
