QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:32 PM) I'm pretty sure you're allowed to block the plate when the ball beats the runner like that. What's the catcher supposed to do ,get out of his way to tag him and allow the runner to try some slick slide maneuver ? That whole "blocking the plate" rule is BS anyway.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:31 PM) I'm sure Garcia will be out there tomorrow. Heck probably moved up in the order. Mistakes gets you a promotion on this team. QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:31 PM) Guys lets not let McEwing let us forget that Avisuck is the reason we lost Of course he'll be starting tomorrow. He's Hahn's pride and joy - Avi the "untouchable."

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:22 PM) If you were on the pro-buy camp, wouldn't you just say that swapping Avi for [good hitter] would win you this game? QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:24 PM) Having a competent defensive OF probably would have saved us 2 runs today. You are both right.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:21 PM) If the power struggle is true, Hahn must be laughing his ass off to KW, who wanted to buy. Hahn should laugh all the way to the unemployment office.

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:20 PM) are you surprised? I'm surprised they drew that well.

f*** this organization.

QUOTE (almagest @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:13 PM) Holy mother... WHY would you send him? Poor coaching.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:14 PM) He is blocking the plate Did Robin say anything?

Nice way to start it off by Alexei. Now let's walk this off.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) He has been really bad at his GM job He certainly has been.

QUOTE (harkness @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 09:36 PM) Sanchez appears to have more pop then Avi and the roach And when he's not hitting at least his defense is valuable.

Sanchez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 06:16 PM) According to attached, they made the valencia decision Friday night. http://www.thestar.com/sports/bluejays/201...el-carrera.html I stand corrected then. Thanks for the link.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 05:50 PM) No they couldn't. The Revere trade did not get finalized until close to the deadline. 90 minutes before the deadline from what I read. Plus teams normally have potential trades set up beforehand contingent on other moves.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 04:10 PM) The front office didn't do anything wrong in this case. They were going to claim him. Actually, they most likely put in a claim but Oakland has priority. Surely they could have contacted the A's Friday afternoon after they got Revere and worked out a trade.

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) Billy Beane knows what he's doing. The only thing he gave up was 500K in salary relief....yep this entire last couple of days have been s***. I wish the Sox had a competent front office.

Hahn should have traded for him Friday. Now the A's will probably get him.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Aug 2, 2015 -> 02:52 PM) Clearly this FO isn't interested in winning they way we're supposed to. I'm tired of Kenny Williams. His comments make it clear he's still in charge and he needs to go. I'm tired of Hahn.

Alexei rules!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 1, 2015 -> 08:15 PM) Not trying to rub it in or be a dick, but how bout giving Mr. Eight Strikeouts Danks his due tonight? Join me in cheering on my guy, JOHN DANKS!!! And nice play Sanchez! Danks pitched a nice game against a good team.

I really like Sanchez!

Melky is so cool!

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2015 -> 06:38 PM) Alexei killed that ball. Glad to see him doing well. I'd like him back next year. QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Aug 1, 2015 -> 06:39 PM) I have always liked Alexei. Same here.

Isn't Flowers due to run into one?

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2015 -> 06:37 PM) Garcia and LaRoche showing the front office why we clearly dont need any more hitters on this team At least LaRoche can pitch.
