Hawk giving the WGN call--if there's a better all around shortstop than Alexei...

Easy decision to take Jackson out of the rotation. He made the decision for them.

I kinda hope the Sox put up 7 runs quick, and Edwin has a so-so start to make it an easy decision to take him out. I'm just worried they'll actually take Humber, our best starter so far, out of the rotation. 7 quality starts out of 9, and move him to the bullpen? No f***ing way.

No fractures or eye damage for Beckham, so that's good.

At least the Tigers and Indians lost. So frustrating.

Should have been a comfortable win. Another wasted quality start.

Shock the world, Alexei.

Should have scored 6 runs tonight. We wouldn't be watching this now. Now Jackson will start tomorrow with the 6-man going to 5-man on his mind. Should be good. Then Danks vs Romero on Sunday.

There's no way Humber comes out of the rotation right now. That can't happen. Why not see what happens with Buehrle tonight? If he has a rough one, maybe you skip him next time, and keep everyone else on 5 days rest. If not, Jackson has to be the guy to go to the bullpen.

Indians, Sox, and Tigers all have 30 quality starts. Indians 23-7 Tigers 20-10 Sox 18-12 Masterson and Tomlin are 18 for 19 in QS. That's not going to last, and that's why they'll come back to earth.

Real nice outing for Griffith, which is...new.

No drama. No drama, please.

The kids call him Rzep.

I hate that rule...but it goes both ways.

Relying on wild pitches again. hey, whatever works.

Most frustrating Sox team I've ever seen.

Absolutely, Sale should be in the minors starting. I have no idea what they're thinking there, especially with Ohman and Thornton as setup guys. They don't need three lefties without one of them being the closer.

I'd almost like to see some type of phantom injury for Dunn. Give him a couple weeks off. Send him home for a week to clear his head. I never would have guessed he would be this bad for this long. Unreal.

Kuhn 2-3, walk in the leadoff spot. Keep him there.

This is going to be sad.

I'm surprised Morrow is sporting a 5+ ERA, but hopefully he's bad. We kicked his ass last year up there.

It's incredible, they're this close to making it through April and May without one rain out. Especially this season, which has had 30+ rain outs.

Split a 4-gamer there last year.
