still noooooobbooddy out.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Avi is showing signs. Hit that one hard.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 07:37 PM) Donaldson disagrees I mean he's not gonna go out and throw 97 mph and a hundred sliders any more. In many ways he's much smarter now than he was a few years ago and he always has the filthy stuff in reserve.

some moron at bluebirdbanter said sale didn't have very good stuff for such a good pitcher. Uh, ok bro. Tell that to Saunders, lmao

at least we have replay. He's safe but pickup the damn coach.

WTF are you doing.

Avi is seeing the ball nicely tonight.

that is a ridiculous breaking ball. Goodness.

Garcia now at an isolated power of .193. If he can hit 270 with that power and take some walks, he can stick around.

Good hustle AJ.

Good approach here from Navarro.

Wow. Avi!

everyone should be taking until they see a strike.

the weather in the midwest looks like poop this spring, is it even 60 in toronto today?

Melky continues to rip the ball. Man, right at him though.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 07:20 PM) Wow where was that one? 2nd one was inside. The one prior was on the corner IMO.

No pitch trax on WGN? Pathetic.

Lawrie is making a lot of plays.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 05:19 PM) I'm not a Gonzalez fan or a Danks fan but I wonder if some of the people saying Gonzalez got unlucky actually watched the whole game. Looked to me like whatever "bad luck" had had on BABIP it was neutralized by his HR/FB% luck. Could have easily given up 3 bombs instead of just long doubles. He was leaving a lot of balls up and the Jays were crushing them. That said, overall his stuff is better than Danks' if he can sit at 90-91mph on his heater, and he was doing that last night for the most part.

Anybody that follows prospects: does anyone have any good catching prospects in their system? Doesn't seem like anyone really has more than one halfway decent catcher, prospect or otherwise. I saw that this is a deep draft for catchers. Probably would behoove the Sox to invest in one or two.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) Wouldn't mind seeing Jerry Sands take some mighty swings against the knuckler Give Avi another day off. He hit well last night but I'd rather see Sands against the knuckleballer. I feel at least he'll make him throw strikes.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 01:32 PM) Again, it could have easily been worse. Eaton threw out a runner at 3rd with a perfect throw. The next batter hit a bomb. AJax also made a really nice play going a long way in LCF to catch a ball, with runners on second and third who would have scored for sure. That is three runs right there that score in a game against a lesser defensive team. Realistically Gonzalez got a lot of breaks in that game to keep his numbers where they ended up. good to be a Sox fan right now. This defense is simply excellent.

4 years 70 million with a vesting option at say 500 PA for a 5th at another 15-20 million. Would def not go over 5 years any which way you slice it. He won't be a 3B more than another few.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 26, 2016 -> 12:14 AM) That was a nice win. Frazier baby! Why didn't Hawk make the road trip? Is he skipping some of the annoying trips like Toronto? yes, they didn't have his size depends.
