QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 12:36 PM) It was Bayless, not Mayo. And would you rather Brooks be in the game? The Bucks have been destroying him all series, and Hinrich has been invisible QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 12:41 PM) After reading that post I had to guess he wanted Hinrich in? Was Hinrich available? For my two cents, I go really big. With 1.5 seconds left, you don't have to worry about the drive. I would have ran out Noah, Mirotic, Taj, Snell, and Jimmy. Get a lot of length out there to get hands in faces.

The best revenge of all... The walk off.

Walk off style b****es!!!

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 10:44 AM) Neither of those moves make any sense to me. Surkamp is the 4th lefty on as of now. With the way Jennings and Duke are going, no need for him. Carroll is here for innings and nothing else.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 11:17 AM) lol, I know that. I just don't see the point of appealing both starters. Then both of them will just get moved back to be on the same schedule. I feel it would make sense to appeal one although I am not too familiar with the appeal process that makes no sense. The whole point is they can game the system so they only have to cover one start, instead of two, if they work it right around an off day. They way they just set up the system does exactly that.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 11:13 AM) Sox changed the rotation...AGAIN.. Noesi, Samardzija, Sale in Baltimore. If Samardjiza pitches the 28th, and then drops his appeal, he would be out on games for the 29, 30, 1, 2, 3. Then the 4th is an off day. He could slot into the 5th of May. Sale pitches the 29th then drops his appear and is out the 30, 1, 2, 3, and 5th, and comes back the 6th. You'd only need to cover one start on the 3rd.

Love that DH.

So that was the first time in NHL history that a team has had two different goalies win a game in relief in the same series.

Coming out of the huddle of the last play of the Bulls game, I asked out loud why Derrick Rose was on the floor for a defensive possession at the end of the game. I am still waiting for my answer. Dude didn't even get screened. He just lost Mayo. Embarrassingly bad.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 25, 2015 -> 11:26 AM) Ah, good point. Or Shark appeals and Sale doesn't? I am sure MLB will act swiftly to disallow the Sox to game the system. This has been done for years now. The Sox are hardly the first to take advantage of it.

We haven't even hit May Day yet. Let the season develop a little bit.

You can bet they appeal and drop appeals so that Sale and Samardjiza aren't suspended at the same time.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 02:21 PM) Exactly my point. Shark, Sale, have to be better. This is about who is managing these elements.....team-wide. When s*** like this happens, we don't need loose cannons deciding how many future games we're potentially going to forfeit. Wish this team could just go out and consistently start beating people's brains in on the field two or three days in a row - but I guess at this point it's just too much to ask. So they need fire and passion, but not when their teammates get targeted. Got it.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 02:19 PM) Now you're saying Eaton had absolutely nothing to do with it....hard to believe, knowing Eaton. Sure, we can say 80/20 or 70/30, but nobody can claim to be completely blameless. And nobody forced him to turn around and go back towards Ventura, either. The baseball "code" I guess. He ran to 1st base first, then when he turned around and came back, Ventura was already walking towards him. The very act of his walking to his dugout would have put him right into Ventura's path.

asey Stern ‏@CaseyStern 24m24 minutes ago Ned Yost told us clearly understood why Eaton was heated,called Ventura action after comebacker "a funky move" @MLBNetworkRadio #Royals #MLB

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 02:00 PM) it's what he DIDN'T say that bothers me. I don't know. I'm really f***ing pissed today. With all due respect, you have no idea what he said, or didn't say, to his team. You are assuming he said nothing, beacuse he said nothing publicly.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 01:54 PM) More disappointed in the stupid decisions made by Sale the last 10 months or so, dating back to the cheating accusation in Detroit I agree totally. He is one of the most important players on our team, and he needs to start acting like it.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 01:55 PM) That's not my assumption, necessarily. I'm giving you my observation. I see nothing from this team in terms of fire or cohesion, and that does come from the top down. Do you see any evidence to the contrary? A team with no fire or cohesion was just involved in a bench clearning incident, with multiple guys going after guys on the other team, led by the same Robin Ventura who charged after Nolan Ryan after being headhunted. Yeah, just because Ventura doesn't put on a floor show like Ozzie did for the media, doesn't mean anything. You just saw both fire and cohesion last night, as that entire team left the bench looking for blood to protect one of their own. If that isn't fire and cohesion, I don't know what is.
