  1. Don Everly of the Everly Brothers a few days ago. Part of one of the greatest duos in the formative years of rock.
  2. For better or worse, nearly all of the hospitals and clinics in Illinois are requiring them for our students to do their internships there. It's around 80% right now and I expect it to go up.
  3. Really? Quintana. The guy they picked up as a minor league FA and anyone can turn him into a MLB start and a legitimate silver slugger OF.
  4. I saw the title and immediately saw penicillin. My first though "what kind of infection did he have" ?
  5. But he's not hitting home runs. Right now he is Madrigal with better defense/ green
  6. If he needs it, now is the time to do it. They wouldn't give him this much time off he he wasn't having issues.
  7. To be fair, someone could have voted for no but wanted him skipped frequently or the Sox to go to a 6 man rotation. These options would have still given him .ore rest and decreased his innings without "shutting him down" Its was one of the options I was thinking about.
  8. These lat injuries are fairly new since Peavy had his. Its more of this dumbass follow throughs that are more lateral instead of at the plate, i think. It gets velocity on the pitch but it's taking a toll on the arm.
  9. No they don't. The get a capable backup or 2. No one acquires enough players planning for nearly half the lineup for half a season.
  10. You can't plan for half your lineup to miss 3 months or more of the season either. No team can.
  11. Well if they were confident in the players they had in system then they really didn't need to do it from outside the system in the off season. Regardless of where or when the the players came from, it has worked out pretty well to cover for significant injuries.
  12. I'll take it. Give this team a chance in the WS.
  13. Bad at creating depth? They lost 3 starting players for at least 3 months of the season and another for over two months. That's nearly half the lineup and they are still running away with the division. The players they brought up as depth performed well.
  14. One of the few movies in recent memory that I actually turned off.
  15. In all sports, coaches/ mangers have input on the roster. If it works posters compliment the person they like, if it doesn't they blame the guy they don't like. In reality none of these decisions are made in a vacuum by a single person. It is made by the group. I know people today love to blame a single person but that just isn't the way it works.
  16. He's coming off a serious injury that kept him out for months?
  17. I disagree. Cruz has shown he is hits the the Sox extremely well.
  18. Just got home How is there 7 hits and only 1 run in 3 innings? 7 hits and 1 run doesn't cut it.
  19. Unfortunately, thats what general fans are used to in other sports and baseball may need to do it to bring the game to new fans.
  20. Advice for the series. Pitch around Cruz in any important situation.
