thankyou Indians.

good job worked a walk but still, the odds were not good before the pitcher went full retard and treated him like Mike Trout.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 02:54 PM) Bonifacio? you can only laugh.

And it's Beckham that gets another PA. Seriously f*** OFF ROBIN.

Why isn't Avi pinch hitting? Seems like Robin is determined to bat Laroche 700 PA this year.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 02:26 PM) I know it's very early, but the Tigers and Royals seem to be the better constructed teams this year. That's def more than fair to say. It's early, but so far the Royals and Tigers are head and shoulders above everyone else in the Central.

it's not exactly like the Tribe are playing a great game either. They are giving the Sox plenty of freaking outs themselves.

QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 02:22 PM) I'm watching the game at Applebee's and I just noticed the White Sox no longer has the players' names on the grey jerseys. DISLIKE!!! would you want your name associated with this garbage baseball? Kidding but wow.

that should not be a hard play for a MLB outfielder.

JESUS CHRIST

Seems like every ump this year has had a strike zone that includes at least an inch on either corner. Go to f***ing robots sick of it.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) Which is what? Cause you aren't making any sense. He's trying to argue that the Sox should just give Boras the additional leverage of a year earlier FA because the history of other Boras clients suggests it doesn't matter. It's a bat s*** insane argument.

good job getting some runs back be nice if they hadn't gifted them 2 in this game.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:59 PM) It was 3-1. And Abreu probably has a better chance of driving himself in than trying to get hit around by his teammates this game anyway It was Laroche was it not? I'm at work I'm not watching every pitch I could be wrong but was it not 3-0 and he swung?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:57 PM) what do you want, all aces? This is the AL verlander had a 4.54 ERA good for an ERA+ of 88. He was one of the worst qualified starters in the AL. So was Danks. 4.5 ERA is not good, even in US Cellular. We all need to revise the numbers in our head due to this decline in offense. I too see 4.5 ERA and think solid 4th starter but you look at the league stats and it's garbage in this era of reduced offense.

come on connor f***ing do something today.

down 4 runs we are swinging away 3-0. This team is just dumb.

Jose hasn't been that great so far.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:51 PM) As a 4th starter he just needs to have that 4.5 ERA and work into the 6th and hope our offense can keep pace. Unless he can get that 6ish ERA down, you're right, he doesn't deserve a spot. But I'm more concerned about the anemic offense so far. Some guys really need to wake the f*** up (hi Melky) A 4.5 ERA in today's game is awful. Even for a 4th starter.

QUOTE (brett05 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:50 PM) Be that as it may, you cannot deny the truth of good Boras clients never seeing that year. Clients usually sign before hand. And the Sox would be foolish to throw away that 7th year leverage for 2 starts in April 2015. Retarded really if we don't care about being PC.

QUOTE (brett05 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:46 PM) Given the number of Boras clients who are good and never see that extra year I'd think not. I'm glad you're not Hahn.

Jesus you had plenty of f***ing time to glove it.

QUOTE (bulokis @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:44 PM) So Rodon and Bryant fall in the same position right? I heard bryan getting called up this friday Yes.

QUOTE (brett05 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) But the Sox aren't keeping him down for service time reasons They have plausible deniability -- but if you think they don't know that keeping him down 3 weeks at any point this season gives them another year of guaranteed control (on a Boras client nonetheless), well, your head is in the sand imo.

FFS this is not putting me in a good mood at the office.
