Thank you Abreu!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:01 PM) Here come the dead Astros Um they scored a lot of runs against the Red Sox

QUOTE (StrykerSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 07:48 PM) Better defense, but is Rollins that bad? We'll disagree about the bat. Until last year, Rollins was a 3 WAR player on offense. Saladino will never do that. Watch the games, he is so slow and his reaction time is awful.. Rollins is also an aging vet that will never be a 3 WAR player again probably even a 1-2 WAR again.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 17, 2016 -> 07:12 PM) Well, Beck screwed that up. I see no reason why Johnson or Turner wouldn't be the spot start on the DH.

QUOTE (StrykerSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 07:42 PM) Mock all you want. I'm just tired of people who think playing Saladino over Rollins is some brilliant and obvious decision. Saladino has done nothing to earn that sort of admiration. I think you are thinking people are saying he is an all star. We simply think he provides better defense with the same kind of bat Rollins does

This team is slowly starting to frustrate me

Dumb shift

Rodon is pitching instead of trying to aim the ball and pitch to contact and that is when he is best

One day maybe I can wake up before 6 AM and start a game thread. Let's start winning again!

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ May 17, 2016 -> 12:55 AM) Don't look now but Trayce Thompson is lighting it up for the Dodgers- 2 HR's tonight. I realize he was a key part to the Toddfather deal but really wish we could've kept him somehow. I agree. He would have been better then Jackson IMO. Too bad there wasn't a different player we could have thrown in the deal besides Thompson

If he is better then Sands and Schuck this is great

Also, with so many people in line at once how is that not a huge security threat?

I traveled right around New Years and Late Feb/Early March and never really had problems with TSA lines. But I can see why Chicago airports are much worse then STL

Hawkins was 2-4, 2B, HR. Has a hit every game since coming off the DL

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 16, 2016 -> 08:54 PM) . I look for Ishikawa to be released. Jacob May just went on the DL

Home plate umps have been really bad this year, it is getting brutal to watch at this point

QUOTE (DirtySox @ May 16, 2016 -> 07:29 PM) Fulmer with command issues again. 4 BBs through 4 IP. 5 IP but 0 runs allowed. Not the best way to go about it

Davidson has really turned it around. Now hitting over .270

The coughing scene with Elrich tonight on Silicon Valley was great lol

Does anyone find it funny that the Rangers had Bush, the guy who spent time in prison, hit Bautista?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 15, 2016 -> 06:07 PM) Slide looked legal to me. What slide were you watching? Bautista should have been punched in the face for that dirty slide that could have really hurt Odor (see Utley's slide in the postseason)

At least all the other AL central teams suck right now

Damn these last few losses have been really tough. We have had a couple games where we gave up multiple leads during the game, the bullpen is coming back down to earth and it is tough to watch right now. Hopefully another off day and coming back home can change things up a bit

Avila sure took his time but had a good throw
