We scored!!!! Wooooo!! Eaton looks weird

Let's not screw this up

Why did Eaton stop? He had 3rd easy

I like Micah.

Sigh... I had some hope

Lol wow, nothing has changed. Comical

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 5, 2015 -> 02:40 PM) For the most part, they have been hitting cut off men. Eaton airmailed one, but OFs throwing the ball home usually have no shot if you try to hit the cutoff man, unless the 3B coach is sending a guy just to send him. If it is going to be close, throwing it at the cutoff man is a concession. So airmailing it really isn't as bad as it looks as long as the chance is legit. It is bad if there is really not a legit chance of throwing out the runner. Rundowns.........every single team has trouble with rundowns. Gillaspie has booted balls, Abreu, Micah, Avi, it is always going to be an adventure when it is hit towards these guys. Am I the only one who doesn't see it as an adventure when the ball is hit towards Micah? I think he has been doing just fine at 2B (granted I wasn't able to watch this weekend) but I don't think he is the issue on defense. Gillaspie, Flowers, Avi, and Abreu are worse, IMO. I must be one of the only ones who have been happy with the play of Micah so far. I think if the other guys (vets) were hitting better, Micah would be hitting better as well. He also hasn't had a lot of AB's so far, he will only get better.

QUOTE (Condor13 @ May 5, 2015 -> 01:00 PM) HR open for tonight's games. If we are gonna get our offense going it should be tonight. Go Sox!!! Since I stopped picking we haven't hit a home run. I wonder if I should pick tonight

Someone tell me 8-14 isn't that bad and we can get back to .500 quickly

Great win and Derrick is ok. Time to focus on game 2. Can't just be happy we won the first, let's steal another

Starters got to get the lead back up.

QUOTE (shysocks @ May 4, 2015 -> 07:38 PM) Their plan seems to be Pray Gasol Doesn't Make Shots. He is money on those jumpers. They need a different game plan lol

Still no Niko so far.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 4, 2015 -> 01:27 PM) I would like a Bulls victory tonight. That is all.

QUOTE (LDF @ May 4, 2015 -> 01:06 AM) i need someone opinion other than myself. it like he just came out of no where, putting up good stats across the board. is he for real or is he on a hot streak. Just looking at his Stats looks like he had pretty decent years 2011-2013 and had a down year last year in 2014. Like Matt said in his analysis he has always been older for the levels he has been in.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 4, 2015 -> 12:08 AM) The way the org pumped him up he was bound to fail. They f***ing rush everyone of their guys it seems. He was nowhere near MLB ready and we saw it in spring. That Sanchez lingers in AAA while the Sox are close to last in every single defensive metric really pisses me off. Here's what should happen on the off day: Robin out Steverson interim Micah to AAA Sanchez up Gordon is new everyday 3b sanchez is new everyday 2b rodon to aaa ____ up The team needs defense BADLY. I don't think Gordon is any sort of answer but right now he can at least provide defense. He has played 20 games (57 ABs) and he has already failed? Come on man. He is seeing the most pitches on a team full of mainly vets. He has made 1 error (Today) and out of the regulars he is 4th in average and I guarantee if the rest of our offense wasn't horrible he would be playing better. Yeah he is a bit shaky in the field but really hasn't hurt the team with his fielding, IMO and I have no idea why they aren't having him steal nearly every time he is on 1st but he has been a bright spot on this s***ty team. He is not the one to replace in the line up.

Great content! Dan Black is really interesting to me, every time I see a box score he is usually getting on base somehow and hitting well. His walks are of interest especially for this team. Would be interesting to see him up if LaRoche hits the DL

QUOTE (LDF @ May 3, 2015 -> 10:25 PM) I just saw this thread. Releasing him had to be done, he has been horrible and is just a waste of space in our minor league system. Better?

Just saw this. It had to be done

This gives me some hope that maybe Hahn will realize Ventura needs to go

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 3, 2015 -> 04:56 PM) Why wait Monday it should be done. The problem is we would be stuck with Cooper or Parent probably. I doubt we hire someone during the season

I cant believe we got swept by the Twins. Bring up Thompson and Sanchez and put Rodon in the rotation. Bring some life to this damn team.

QUOTE (Lillian @ May 3, 2015 -> 03:25 PM) And Thompson keeps hitting. 3 for 3 today. It's a lot more fun following these Minor Leaguers than the Sox. Bring up the kids to get some life into the team.

I wish we were the Astros

I'm not sure why anyone would think this fight was going to end up being worth the $100. There was about a 5% chance of that at best
