Who are these guys?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 9, 2013 -> 08:25 PM) Webb continues to struggle in AAA I think heard somebody say (maybe Buddy Bell) that he needs to put more movement on his pitches. Maybe they're working with him on that.

https://soundcloud.com/bristolsoxbaseball/b...rview-by-jordan Not sure if this interesting to anyone, but it's a 22 minute interview with Bell. He always says something that makes me roll my eyes. Definitely in the Jerry Reinsdorf Ring of Loyalty.

The Sox play the same game every day. Good starting pitching, no offense, do something stupid, lose.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20130709 Hawkins sitting.

No Hitter Alert. Verlander starts vs White Sox tonight.

Gimenez has been outrighted to Charlotte.

I like how the Sox were pissed they didn't get their off day today in Florida. f*** em.

13 of the next 32 against the Tigers. That should be a thing. This team is going to lose 100.

Trayce Thompson has an 0-28 going.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:35 PM) How can you tell if somebody has blocked someone else on twitter? https://twitter.com/CHawkins10/status/354418337998057472

Looks like Hawkins blocked the sports writer for the Winston-Salem paper because he pointed out he had a golden sombrero. Nice to see Courtney runs to twitter right after the game to see what everyone is saying about him.

3-0? Really?

Hopefully Hawkins goes to instructional league in the fall, learns some things, and has a better year at Winston-Salem in 2014.

A's DFA'd Adam Rosales. I could see the Sox picking him up. He's not a regular, but versatile, and it doesn't hurt he's from Chicago.

Jacob May homer

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 7, 2013 -> 04:08 PM) I think that's a terrible idea. Outside of Sale, these guys need innings. Sale does to a lesser extent. They haven't announced a makeup date with the Blue Jays yet. Once they do, the Sox have 4 off days after the break.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2013 -> 04:06 PM) They need to come up with a plan to limit the innings/pitches the rest of the way for Sale/Quintana/Santiago. No more of this 120 pitch nonsense. I agree, and depending on what happens the rest of the month, a 6-man rotation shouldn't be out of the question.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2013 -> 04:00 PM) What was worse, 2007 or this? We're four games worse now, have no star offensive players, and haven't played the Tigers yet. This team is going to lose 95 minimum, and may knock on the door of 100 losses.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 7, 2013 -> 03:49 PM) That's a fair point, but no one in baseball saw this coming. Everyone was giddy over what he did at the end of last season. Including the Sox brass who are supposed to know better. Buddy Bell was on the Score yesterday. He's still giddy over Jared Mitchell even though everyone knows he's a bust. Those guys are way too emotional about their favorites. They probably got overly excited about Hawkins' playoff performance last year, and pushed him too hard this year. There was no point in starting him at Winston-Salem.
