QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 06:16 PM) The FO deserves to get fired. So does most of the team staff. Clean house. If they fired Kenny, Buddy, Rick, Haber, and the coaching staff, who would be there to hire the people to hire? It's not a good situation right now. Train wreck.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 06:09 PM) Why doesn't MLB have the 10 run rule again? There should be an option to call it after 7. Save pen arms for the next day and not have to use position players, which is bad trend in baseball.

Ventura should pull the team off the field, forfeit, resign, and catch a plane to California. It's over. Not all of it is his fault, but it's over.

Ranaudo should start next time with Shields DLd to work on whatever- being a junk baller.

He would get to see his kids on Fathers Day. So that's something.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) KW was never this bad when he was GM. Hahn is great at contracts, but completely overmatched in every other aspect. He may have bad results, but Kenny is right there approving everything. And he sucked too past 2007. They both need to go, but it should start with Kenny.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 05:26 PM) Hahn shouldn't be allowed to make another move. He's done enough damage to this org So you're positive this is all him and not his boss that he reports to? Nobody is harder on Hahn than you. And it's never lumping KW with him. Why is that?

Jerry Reinsdorf made this. Getting exactly what he deserves. Unfortunately the fans that care have to take it- or not.

Nice to see Fisher come right out and go 2-4. Hope the hitting projections for him pan out and we have a good one here.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 08:49 AM) So 6-16 against KC, DET and CLE. Robin, please step into my office because you're f***ing fired! If they fall to 6-18 vs the other three and 5.5 out in the division, and just as much or more for the second wildcard, there really is no other move than to fire Ventura. The percentages for them to make the playoffs with or without him would be way down there, so they might as well give Renteria the keys as an interim.

Shields vs Salazar Could be the last time I start a game thread for the year, so force it for tomorrow...yeah right.

6pm local start tomorrow. Shadows should help the Sox hitters. Eyeroll

If they get to Sunday night and they're 2-7 against the Indians and Royals, and 2-4 vs the Tigers, do they really have any more moves left?

Burdi signed today. What time can he be in Cleveland?

Pulp is gross

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2016 -> 08:59 PM) Fitting that an 0-2 pitch does it. Fire Ventura Started thinking today give it to the break, but a sweep in Cleveland could change that. Question is, would they do that mid- trip?

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 17, 2016 -> 08:59 PM) they saved Q, I guess that's the most important thing. No actually that's not important at all.

I was afraid of that. Damn.

Need to win this now. Let's go!

Yes!

Shields tomorrow. Let's hope he can build off of his last couple innings. I'm grasping.

Looking forward to being on the losing end of Fulmer-Fulmer match ups for years to come.

Notice Hawk doesn't say anything about the first pitch to Abreu.
