QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:34 PM) Volquez next start he will get rocked. The thing is, the Sox hit the s*** out of the ball the first few innings. His defense bailed him out. He's now in a groove and is full of confidence. Just goes to show you have to jump on pitchers.

60 pitches through 6. This is straight up depressing.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:27 PM) Can anyone give me a description of the catch? Full extension for a ball that was behind him.

Hawkgasm time.

It seems like whenever we hit a ball hard, it just goes right to someone.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:12 PM) who are you defying? The rest of this board.

Mark Buehrle with Chris Sale stuff...oh boy that's scary.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:05 PM) Really? Because one is inherently better at hitting a baseball and getting on base than the other? Gordon is their best hitter. Hitting your best hitter 6th seems silly.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:02 PM) No, about the KC's pitching coach's ability. Just seeing him turn Frasor into a stud last year was impressive. He turned it around in Texas honestly.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:59 PM) i can't believe how good volquez's stuff looks. He's always had good stuff.

Volquez isn't even going to throw 40 pitches to get through 4 innings.

Eaton's been swinging at a lot of bad pitches so far.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:55 PM) Yep, I was talking to a good baseball man today, and he said to me "given the way baseball has changed since the steroid era, maybe KC is just a damn good team now" They defy almost every new-school principle offensively. But they're the golden boys of advanced metrics when it comes to defense. Oh and that bullpen.

That's why you don't bunt with a guy who's hitting .500.

At least Yost gave us the out for Escobar. The way he's hitting, why not actually let him hit?

Here we go again...

Just when you thought Danks was turning the corner...

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:46 PM) I'm tired of Lorenzo Cain, dude. He's pretty much Torii Hunter part II.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) so hawk is watching high school dance competitions now

That's two home runs in a normal park without the wind blowing in.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:40 PM) On Gameday I saw 92. That was on the CSN broadcast as well. He threw a 90 MPH fastball right before that.

Danks with a low 90s fastball would be decent John Danks again. I can't wait to have that guy back.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:38 PM) Haven't there been reports that KC's radar gun is a little hot though? I'd believe it if Danks is throwing 92 out of nowhere.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:37 PM) How fast was Danks' fastball last year? 87-88 on average. He's sitting in the low 90s right now.

Is it just adrenaline or is Danks actually going to throw harder this year?
