why are jay and castillo 5th and 6th?

Shocking how little pitching the Sox have. Even for myself who said it could be "historically bad". Now that Rodon is gone, it will be.

They should just DFA them and call up Zeby and Collins.

He's had about three of those already this year.

I've posted this probably half a dozen times but in spring training in Eaton's first year with the club I was sitting about 3 rows back behind the Sox dugout at Camelback watching BP and Adam Eaton was bullshitting so hard with Ventura it was like they were best buds instead of manager and player. If Eaton didn't have a rep as a bit of a wild card in the locker room I really wouldn't have thought much of it but it just seemed sort of odd Ventura was so chummy with the new arrival. I think that Ventura really didn't like managing and probably the social time with the players was the only joy he got from it.

lol, he's done man.

Renteria is the worst strategical manager I've ever seen on the South Side. I thought that was absolutely impossible after Ventura.

Stone knows where his bread is buttered.

It wouldn't even be close. You don't add up 5 nickels and get a dollar. Rutherford is barely a prospect at this point. C+ guy. Fulmer probably has negative value given his 40 man status. You'd have to send over an actual B or higher guy and that would probably be Dunning. On paper I'd do the move because Eaton is a proven contributor even when missing 30-40 games. But I would have some reservations about Eaton as a team mate again.

what's your review of the spanish language teams?

I liked when he was down in the count he reared back and threw a 96 mph fastball with movement over the plate daring that cold, shit lineup to put it in play. It's nice to see a guy come in, have good stuff and attack without nibbling.

Yea and chills sometimes. Benetti should talk to hawk about it or if nothing else adopt his own key.

Love Tilson and Cordell have both brought an element of competence to the OF and that's good.

Discuss.

WINNER! Great win!

TILSON! YES!

I'm not sure what's dumber. Running into the out or that strike 3 call. How does an ump this bad not get a big ole red flag? God damnit man. Continues to feel like we play with one hand tied behind the back.

Oh man! Missed a cookie.

Come on Yoan! Break this one open.

sir this is a game thread.

Does this ump have a dinner date?

Also love how short the bench is now in case of extras.

he's arb eligible.

I agree with all of that. That said, Ricky leaves a lot to be desired in many facets of the game.

that's such delicious literary irony that the same thing that kept them alive killed them in the end. Haha, fuck off Tribe.
