QUOTE (JoshPR @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 05:15 PM) This... from the same people too oh great this silly red herring again. RV has already made a bunch of awful decisions this year. The thing is, sometimes when you have a good team it doesn't really matter. The decision yesterday not to run Rollins on 3-2 or to have Duke face Beltre could easily have cost them the game. The decision to today to let a gassed Duke get the last out two outs in the 6th also could have backfired. However, sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. I"m very happy the Sox appear to at least have a competitive club this year. I'm not happy that at some point RV is going to cost them a couple games. It's just how he does. His bullpen management is awful.

Wow, this team has had some pretty f***ing good luck on double plays this series. I'll take it!

If he's not gonna be used here why is Petricka even on the roster?

RV asleep at the wheel again. He's obviously gassed.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 02:54 PM) Actually it hit Lawrie maybe both but I know it hit Lawrie so not totally Sands fault. It's Sands' fault he has to do a better job reading the throw. He's tagging and 1/3 of the way and when he sees it over the cut he's sprinting to 2nd and in easily. He didn't do any of that.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 02:53 PM) I kinda like the junkbally Latos. Reminds me of latter day Freddy. Little bit, I made the comp to present day Colon earlier in the year.

Nice to see the other team pop up a middle of the pipe 87mph "heater".

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 02:47 PM) Sands getting thrown out probably cost us a run. Sigh... Why was he not tagging and going halfway? Soon as the ball missed the cutoff he should have been into 2nd. Not good running and compounded by the awful decision to go for it once he saw the bobble.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 02:45 PM) 16.3 BB%, 14.5 K% at AAA last year Well there ya go. I'm surprised how MLB pitchers seem to want to nibble around him. I'm sure the book soon will be to challenge him with fastballs up.

Once again the Rangers making a pointless delay.

Ya know, Sands seems to have a pretty good eye.

ok, let's not do a safety squeeze this time.

Good god, not sure what's worse "cinco de miller" or Benetti's awful attempt to "translate" miller into "spanish". Jason needs to turn down the kitsch at times. It's a long year dude.

wow, I got an ex that went to homewood floosmoor. In fact, I'm pretty sure her dad was the assistant principle. This was 10 years ago tho.

really annoys me how Stone never admits he's wrong. THey had no shot, good throw or otherwise.

Nice navarro!

f***ing beltre

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 01:31 PM) Thought that was gone off the bat Me too. RF was surprised as well. He's way out in front, zero power right now. also, Indians have said it's a left hamstring injury for Carrasco. Dunno if that's it. I'd be hesitant until the MRI especially given he was unable to put any weight on it. If it's a hamstring, it's a bad, Jozy Altidore like one in the World Cup a few years ago. I'd expect him to miss at least a couple months.

Jose needs peds or something yikes.

Zero babip luck this series other than that rollins looper.

I had no idea that latos had this good of off speed stuff. He looks good.

Another pointless delay frombthe rangers dugout.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 01:11 PM) Looked like hamstring If it is its a full tear and not much better. Zero weight on the leg was carried off by teammates. He is not coming back any time soon.

I think carlos carrasco just blew out his knee. Very similiar to the garett richards injury. Wow what a bad break for the tribe.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 07:26 PM) why is it that some people panic so quickly and gibe up on players? If Avi Garcia, et al, is batting a buck nothing at the all-star break then maybe we have to make a move. More than half our hitters are batting below the Mendoza Line 18 games into the season including our big two of Abreu and Frazier well those guys have track records of mostly excellence. avi has a track record of mostly suck.
