Who gives a s***...just win.

Hand to the forehead.

I'm sure these final 6 outs will be a piece of cake.

Davidson at .204 with four games left. Hang on, man....

I like the Zaleski idea. It hurts nobody, and no one else really lines up to pitch that day.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20140827 Charlotte at 11:05. Birmingham off. Here's Anderson's homer... http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?con...43&sid=milb

This was an irrelevant season as far as wins and losses. Basically, from the time they traded Peavy last year, the rebuild was on and it was going to take at least 18 months. I'm not going to define this season as a success or a failure...it's just games on other team's schedules. But they have a plan, and they know what they have in Abreu and Eaton. They have Chris Sale. They have Rodon coming. The expectations must be higher in 2015.

Why does Hawk think Sanchez looks like Ordonez? He looks more like Avi with the air let out.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 09:05 PM) I'd love to see them lessen Q's work load the rest of the way. Off days, and 6-man with Rodon should accomplish that. 8-31 vs Det 9-8 vs Oak 9-14 vs Min 9-21 at TB 9-27 vs KC (and maybe Rienzo if KC isn't playing for anything)

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 09:03 PM) Got to go more than 6 innings more often, If you want to be considered a #2 starter. Q is a #3 to me. I was just thinking the same thing.

Praying for Eaton to play 150+ next year.

Viciedo should go to Japan and DH.

I'd like to know what percentage of Quintana's starts in his career he's reached 100 pitches before completing 6 innings.

Nevermind. Let's not talk about it.

Quintana starts. Let's talk about it.

Hawkins back in the lineup.

Bell already said Anderson was their "priority player" for the AFL. To me, that means he'll get the majority of the starts at SS while they are there.

Rodon interview. Haven't listened to it yet. http://thegamechicago.com/2014/08/25/white.../#axzz3BQZLWupb

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 25, 2014 -> 01:18 PM) Normally, when you are sent down you can't come back up for at least 10 days, but is there an exception to that rule with the Sept. 1 roster expansion? Otherwise he can't come back up until Sept. 5. Good question, but I think he'll be able to come up next week. The call ups seem to be obvious-- Rodon, Surkamp, Rienzo, Phegley, Semien, Danks. Sierra will come off the DL. I guess the only questions are Wilkins, Mitchell, and Davidson. To me, Davidson doesn't really deserve it, and they can give those ABs to Sanchez and Semien.

Jordan just got optioned to Charlotte.

When Sale or Rodon are on the mound, I'll hope for a win. But 90 losses should net the Sox a nice pick. 13-19 would be fine with me, although what we root for doesn't make a difference. They'll show up and try to win a game, and whatever the final record is, is.

Rodon and Eaton postgame.

Davidson tater #20

Didn't see the Cubs sweeping the Orioles after how good they looked, but they did. 30 interleague games left this season. 24 in AL parks. AL- 145 NL- 125

Too bad they probably can't bring him up for the doubleheader next Saturday.
