And a lead off walk. What is going on with Sale?

Alexei and LaRoche have just been brutal

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ May 6, 2015 -> 08:15 PM) Believe me, I know. I wish we had a coach who would adjust the line up when it isn't working.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ May 6, 2015 -> 08:08 PM) 1. Rose has yet to take a free throw in this series. That needs to change. 2. Bulls had a gameplan in Game 1. Cavs adjusted. Show off your ego next game Thibs..... 3. If Rose-Butler-Noah are in this game when the game is over, Thibs deserves everything he gets. Thibs won't change anything. Come on man

QUOTE (fathom @ May 6, 2015 -> 08:02 PM) Sale just sucks right now. He's overthrowing that changeup every time It shouldn't have been gone on a guy who can't turn on a fastball at the moment

I hate Tyler Flowers pitch calling. He is so bad

So how long does Thibs watch Gasol get outworked by Thompson before he makes an adjustment? I wish we had a coach who would change things when they aren't working

Wth man

Sweet swingin!

At least we made him work

Another 1st inning run

Looks like we are wearing the same jerseys tonight. Good move!

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 6, 2015 -> 01:24 AM) Sanchez has 0 and is hitting a robust .414 in AAA. Send Micah down. Sanchez has 3 in AAA right now

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ May 5, 2015 -> 11:04 PM) and that's OK And if we blow the save and go to extra innings?

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ May 5, 2015 -> 10:48 PM) Here's the thing. A decision needs to be made on Bonifacio. If he's unusable as a defensive replacement for Micah, than he really has very little utility outside of PR and occasional platoon. Find a way to move him, and call up Sanchez. And LaRoche should be at 1B in the 9th, too. You can't put LaRoche at 1B in the 9th, that takes away the DH.

We won a game!!

Damn it Micah, stop making me look bad

Wow, I thought Valverde was back on the Tigers for a second

Great inning by Duke. It's Robertson time!!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 5, 2015 -> 09:28 PM) Det pen has been great. That or our hitters haven't had good ABs

We have 1 hit since Greene left.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 5, 2015 -> 09:15 PM) Sure, but I just prefer to look at the game from a more nuanced point of view. There are metrics and ulterior indicators available that can stimulate a better understanding of the game. I use them, others don't. I am not faulting fans for not taking the time to understand these things. Everyone's got a busy life of their own. And I prefer to watch the game and not use advanced stats. We all have our ways. I understand why people like using those metrics but I just don't and I don't think they are all stupid. Mainly just BABIP because I feel like it is a stat telling me how lucky or unlucky a hitter is getting with his balls in play

Jeff is giving hits up to some crappy players

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 5, 2015 -> 09:06 PM) It all evens out though. For instance, we should see plenty of improvement from Adam Eaton who could serve as a catalyst for the offense in front of Melky/Abreu/LaRoche. That'd better serve us than Avi hitting singles in front of the crappy bottom of the order. If the guys you mentioned above start getting one base more those Avi singles will turn into Avi RBI singles. Nobody expects Eaton to hit under .200 all year, that is just baseball. Players slump, run into bad luck, get really lucky, see the ball well at times, etc. The game is full of streaks. That is why we all love the game.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 5, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) Some people don't give a rat's arse about that. You're just basically raining on our parade of seeing the one Sox player with a high BA. Let us enjoy the one good high average guy while it last. Yes it's due to drop thank u very much . All we hear is this guy is sucking and the one guy not sucking you're saying wait he will suck. Some of you guys just can't just watch and enjoy the game because it's baseball and the Sox. That's enough for some of us without repeatedly hearing it's a mirage. Basically what he said
