Eaton and Semien struggling tonight.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 08:47 PM) Johnson is pitching damn well. Velocity really isn't there but his breaking stuff is nasty. His velocity is sitting right where it was last year i've seen 92 consistently and I think i seen 93 once or twice.

1-2-3 nice

Nice AB Dunn

Marvin Hudson your strike zone sucks

nice work erik

Screw us out of a man on first with no outs for Dunn and then strike 3 for bases juiced...what a crock.

WOW where the f*** was that pitch?

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:52 PM) Just in general, as I enjoyed having another player in the lineup that I enjoyed watching his progress. I'm with you I too would love to have seen what Avi could produce but at the same time its refreshing to know that they will have a definitive answer about Viciedo this season and probably Danks as well, is he a 4th OF a 5th OF or just AAAA fodder.

Alexei goes from 4 pitches in 4 ABs to a walk, man of mystery love it!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:45 PM) NY office must be bias against Sox ask Hawk! I don't believe that to be the case, but MLB even said that the NY office doesn't get all the angles of the replay and flat out got the call wrong in the BOS NYY game with regards to the call at 2B.

thanks Umps.....

bet New York didn't get the same replay again...

Appears as if Peavy and AJ can't get on the same page. nice AB for Abreu so far

alexei looking smooth out there another 1-2-3 inning and Erik is at 24 pitches

Aced nice job Eri

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:21 PM) And it is at 87-89. Not much of a difference from his fastball. yeah it normally sits at 87.8mph he also features a 73mph Curveball you can check out more of his stuff and all major league pitchers here

great 1-2-3 inning, his control is much improved from his previous starts and he looks relaxed

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:13 PM) He's thrown 4 pitches. Wait. its a good sign when Flowers isn't sprinting all over the plate trying to catch his pitches.

sawed off sizemore, control looks a bit better today.

Lets go Johnson just need to be serviceable.

QUOTE (God Loves The Infantry @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 05:57 PM) Beckham to Toronto for Romero, straight up. Beckham is owed 4.18M this year, Romero is currently at AAA with a 6.75ERA and his contract status looks like this 14:$7.5M, 15:$7.5M, 16:$13.1M club option ($0.6M buyout). So the sox would be taking on nearly 11.5M in salary obligations. If the Blue Jays were willing to reduce that to say to the 7.5-5.5M in future obligations and throw in a live arm or two, I would strongly consider making that deal.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 08:26 PM) Conor fits approximately 1000x better if he can just learn to play 2B and/or corner OF. LH Keppinger, basically Exactly, I'm a big proponent of Conor but unless he can manage a 630ish OPS against left handers he is a platoon player (which there is nothing wrong with) he adds a good amount of value to this team. Especially if our bench next year is going to shake out looking like this. OF Danks UTL Garcia UTL Gillaspie C Flowers/Nieto that is a solid 1.7-2.5 Win bench with slightly above average defense.

I would think that texas lines up really well with us with their string of recent injuries including Beltre. They've got some really good looking live arms that would be considered C/C+; Wilmer Font, Keone Kela and Victor Payano all come to mind as targets.
