2 runs against Mike Pelfrey...so f***ing sad.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 05:33 PM) This is valid but I think Hahn may just being opportunistic here. Even if Shields gets wacked around a bit at the cell, paying him 9M a year to make 32 starts is still worth it here. Can't have enough pitching. I don't even want to think this way, but Shields is 10x more valuable the trade asset that he was with the Padres now that they're paying him. Sox could lose the next 20 games and turn around and trade him for a package better than EJ/Tatis Jr. Yeah, the projection systems hate Latos and Gonzalez. They probably don't like Shields either, but at least we can expect a quality start from him most of the time. You never know with Latos and Gonzalez. This seems like a deal for the long term more than anything. For this year, we have to improve the offense if we want to compete.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 05:18 PM) I think it's a good trade in terms of resources spent to acquire innings pitched. Just feels though like the boat is already sinking and those holes need to be plugged ASAP We're plugging the wrong holes. We haven't been winning because of the bullpen and the inconsistent offense recently. Not because of our starting pitching.

Second half was god awful for the most part. Dempsey with a couple of good attempts on goal, but that was it. Seemed like Pulisic had no chemistry with some of the other forwards on the team as well. Really poor showing.

Colombia up 2-0. USMNT have played well, but two huge mistakes have cost us.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 04:54 PM) Select Mets game thread posts: And the POTD Albers' hit is better than Bartolo's homer. Cause Albers actually had to run the bases.

Albers is not broken anymore?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 01:53 AM) At least you're honest. I think most Bulls fans don't like him for the same reason.

I think almost everyone on this board has been asking this since opening day.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 10:03 AM) Saladino is in the line-up after all today, hitting behind JB Shuck. My god...Robin is obsessed with splitting the righties up in the middle of the lineup isn't he? I don't think that even matters when the guy doing it is JB Shuck.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 12:58 AM) I would prefer if LeBron and Cleveland never win ever again It has nothing to do with Cleveland for me. I just don't like LeBron. #salty4everover2010

Why would you sit Saladino after he just had a great game?

I will never pull for LeBron.

ChokeKC really blew it.

You also have to consider that Robin was basically playing for 1 run in that situation. With the bullpen the way it's been, why the hell would you do that?

Harvey gets hit hard the third time around. It has happened all year. That was exactly what was happening in the 7th and then Ventura gave up an out. That's inexcusable.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 29, 2016 -> 04:33 PM) #VoteRoyals ‏@Royals 9m9 minutes ago Do you need a hug, @whitesox? Edit: I really f***ing hate the Royals. Wow whoever runs their Twitter needs to f*** off.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:47 PM) Already texted someone that Robertson approved of Durant's finish Gotta give Iggy a ton of credit for the defense he played on Durant.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) There was some drama late in the game but overall it seemed kind of boring today. It doesn't help that Fox's soccer coverage pales in comparison to NBC, makes me really appreciate their EPL work. Of course Ronaldo was invisible all game but scored the game winning PK. People's on Ronaldo's dick for scoring a penalty...sigh. Atletico made him invisible tonight. I really don't like Atletico, but it really does suck they've gotten beat twice in extra time the past 3 years.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:39 PM) Awesome game, quite the choke by OKC Who choked worse today? The Sox or the Thunder? lol

OKC completely blew it. I bet LeBron's mad he's gotta face GS again.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:56 PM) Or let Albers pitch with some room for error. Or Jennings.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 28, 2016 -> 04:47 PM) I haven't watched 1 second today. Just checked box score. Do I even want to know anymore I didn't watch til the 9th boy was that a mistake.

Absolutely inexcusable.

It seems like no matter who is on this Royals team, they hit in bunches late in games.
