QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 01:17 PM) You really love Avi, don't you? Or at least you used to. I used to go to war with you and Rock on Avi, hah. Yea man, cheers to the new season, I'm trying to be less of an asshole this year. Lots of great opinions here no reason to be so aggro.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 01:04 PM) People are going to say this is an overreaction, but stuff like this is exactly why Robin shouldnt be the manager. He's weakening the OF defense in a stadium with a massive outfield for a pitcher that will likely have a lot of balls put in play against him. Not only that, but you're keeping your 2 current weakest hitters in the lineup and sitting the one that is actually hitting and has experience against this pitcher? Not to mention you're moving Melky up to the 2 hole despite a complete absence of on base ability thus far this season? Just absolutely clueless IMO. No argument here. It's his 4th year. We've seen quite a few days like this.

they really love Avi.

Still some positive tonight had a decent number of baserunners and good counts and Rodon pitched well. Defense was solid.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 01:08 AM) From the little of the game I could catch - looked like the blue had a f***ed up zone on our hitters. Drastically changed some big counts. certainly f***ed up that avila AB.

Nice start Carlos.

melky is trash

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 11:28 PM) Um, not start going on a line drive? Knowing where the fielders are? nah his secondary is 10-12 feet off the bag at least he's f***ed.

wow, bad luck.

Sox getting all the love on a great ESPN2 broadcast. Glad I switched over. They showed Rollins flat footed on that missed dive and had a great shot earlier of Jose and Q mucking it up hard in the dugout. Jose was doing some sort of play acting and was pretty into it.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 11:04 PM) What are FNGs First...name...gallon what are you a f***ing new guy?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 11:02 PM) So this year 7 of the 8 Sox RBI are by FNG's. it's been nice. You know usually the FNG's suck.

eaton does this all year f*** i don't care if he sits alone in the dugout and lunch table.

QUOTE (RaySox @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 10:59 PM) Imagine Avi on that lol probably would have slid and dropped it.

Eaton made it look easy, nice!

Carlos is a wild SOB at times.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 10:56 PM) Rollins had to have hit to Davis in the air like that on purpose. I'm flabbergasted that anyone on a major league roster could have that bad of an arm. Arm was my best tool other than for a hot moment power and i can still chuck it better than maybe 2-3 MLB OF in any given year. I guess if you can do everything else well and you can't throw for s*** you either go to LF or 1B.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 10:56 PM) David vs Eaton throwing contest Somehow if you combined their launch angles you might have a solid arm.

not a great start for Jose but no reason to worry.

we have smart hitters for once it seems if a guy is wild they let him get into trouble. Look at Rollins! Perfect. Takes a pitch then gets one he can get in the air.

Jackson looks rejuvenated a bit. Hopefully RV can keep him fresh. Good job Adam gets the job done.

f*** YEA AJAX!

Not like Gray looks great either.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 10:51 PM) Yes, he dominated those last 2 batters. It's amazing how big league hitters will abuse a pitcher who is not on. Hopefully we can get to Sonny but he looks good. Sometimes you get away with a meatball fastball when it's coming 93-95 but Rodon tends to miss up which is bad. He was lucky last year somewhat on HR.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 6, 2016 -> 10:48 PM) Was he doing a bad pun for can ha? No, imagine a hawk sound board and you hit "can of corn" that's what he said then you see EAton doesn't even run back and yea. It wasn't a cheap HR either.
