In before lock.

After tonight, the Sox play 17 of the next 20 away from the Cell. Hope the players don't revolt in protest.

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 01:08 PM) So you guys can't handle a top 5 pitcher who throws a temper tantrum a couple times per year? Need to trade him to show who's the boss? If they find a suitable trade in the next 6 days, great. If they find a suitable trade in the next 6 months, great.

QUOTE (FT35 @ Jul 26, 2016 -> 09:11 AM) I'll never find displeasure in winning...but here we go again with a little hot streak right around the deadline. Could very well alter the course of the decisions that SHOULD be made. That being said...I hope we keep winning--regardless of what moves we make and who is on our roster. I get your point on that, but the Sox are under 5 percent to make the postseason, and they actually have a better chance to win the division than the second wildcard. They're selling if they get right deals.

It sounds a little like the some of the players probably didn't want to wear them just because they didn't like them, and Sale was going to be a great "team leader" by refusing to wear them. He handled it all wrong and should have worn them. On the other hand, they knew this day was coming all season, and they should have had plenty of time to alter the uniform any way he (they) wanted....and even throw bullpen sessions leading up to it. It shouldn't have been a day of game revolt. Terrible.

Comments make him look worse. Big baby.

All of this stuff should be in the CBA. So stupid they have to think about other people in the clubhouse doing their job. It's just an outdated practice anyway.

If you hate the Tigers, yesterday was a disaster for them, so that's good. It's really coming down to 6 teams, for 5 spots...and the Indians are getting one of them. Which brings me back to- there's no point of having five team divisions...and if they ever go to an NFL style 8 divisions of 4 teams, I'm done with baseball. http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings/_/view/wi...rd/group/league

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:37 PM) I don't get what this is saying. There was another tweet saying they're stockpiling SS to make a run at SP in the offseason.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 08:29 PM) He can't be traded until after the World Series, and cannot be a PTBNL in any trade made before that point in time. Uh huh. I know.

Collins pinch hit for. Hugwatch.

You would think compensation would be taken care of where players don't have to think about this stuff. Play, get on the bus, hotel, airport, etc.

Q is awesome. Minnesota on Friday. We shall see.

Griffey quickly thanked the Sox for getting to play in a race every day. No mention of Game 163. Great speech. His dad lost it.

4-6 vs Tigers. Showoffs.

C'mon Spanky. Save the pen.

Benintendi has played 144 pro games-- 35 doubles, 15 triples, 18 homers, 25 sb, .916 OPS Get me that guy. Ball player.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 24, 2016 -> 12:02 PM) So when does the suspension officially start? Saturday to Wedneday. He's pitching Thursday.

So his Cy season goes from 33 starts to 32 starts, and when they shut him down the final series, it'll be 31.

Hahn meeting with the media at 11:45. The Score will probably have some sound 12-12:45.

Carlos Sanchez and Buck Farmer are up as 26th men.
