Cleto was outrighted to Charlotte. Liddi and Purcey released.

Not expecting much good this series. Hopefully steal one and sweep the Astros.

Carlos Sanchez--a homer away from a cycle. I'll take the under.

Ever cut your nipple off for a girl?

That's too bad about Johnson. A huge blow to the Sox if he can't come back and continue to develop.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:26 AM) I can't handle this rollercoaster. I want Kolek now. KOLEK. I agree. 24 days to go. The Sox will get a pitcher we're happy with and that could end up great or a complete bust.

Johnson in trouble in the 2nd. single, single, double, single, single to start. 3-0 two on, nobody out.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 12, 2014 -> 06:56 AM) I hope he comes back on the 24th when I am there (and when it's Chris Sale bobblehead day). You better hope when he throws on Thursday, it's a simulated game. If it's a real game, he'll probably be pitching fives days later...and then another five days vs the Yankees, which is the 25th. At this point, the 25th seems more likely.

For most people, going to a Sox game is something you look at the schedule weeks and months in advance, and choose a game. That usually happens for games in June, July, and August. Not a lot of families are going to wake up on Mother's Day, and go to a Sox game. Maybe when the Sox get better, they'll draw. Until then, 1.6-1.7 mil this year.

Yesterday was the beginning of the end. Flowers running to third. Here comes a 3-6 road trip.

Ventura gets such a pass in this town.

A week ago, I didn't think the Sox had a prayer in Cleveland. Hope it turns out that way today.

3-1 game might as well be 10-1

Gibson managing here in fear of leaving a rookie out there too long. Hope it backfires on them.

Stoney...that was funny

It would be great if they can get the rotation to: Sale, Quintana, Noesi, Danks, Johnson, with the pen they currently have. They just can't go on a 8-game losing streak before that rotation is possible.

Here comes another jinx, but we're looking at another 6 inning/3 run "quality start". Error should have been on De Aza, but....

If the Sox take Kolek, I want Hawk to say he's against it on June 6th.

Barnum (2)

Yeah, that's my fault.

I give the Sox a lot of credit if they can turn Noesi into a reliable starter. That would be a huge deal.

An ERA under 1 is no joke, even in the Southern League.
