QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 7, 2014 -> 08:42 PM) Lol. That was two feet off the line. Good 3b have that easily. He needed to stay on his feet and backhand it and step on 3rd.. I think he thought the ball was hit harder and his first reaction was to dive for hit.

Oh this team sometimes...

Bad move by Abreu.

Does Danks not want to win??

QUOTE (Iguchicago @ May 7, 2014 -> 08:28 PM) Boston didn't really help Marcus there. He wasn't even looking. Yeah, the 1B coach needs to be more involved. I don't think Boston is that good over there.

Thank you Gordon Beckham!! Please tell me you are turning things around!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 7, 2014 -> 08:27 PM) Semien plz go to AAA tonight call Conor up see ya. Danks is already gone for Conor

What the hell is wrong with our base running

Wood is the perfect pitcher for these Cubans to kill

I like Nieto's swing.. I think he can be pretty good with some more time.

Nice job by Abreu!

Looks like Danks doesn't have confidence in his change up. Should have thrown it on 3-2

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 7, 2014 -> 07:43 PM) So Danks still hasn't given up a hit, yet we have several posts saying he has nothing and one poster saying he can hit him. He really hasn't had much. He is facing the Cubs...

ESPN guys talking about Sale and how he looked good in his 55 pitch bullpen session. Will pitch a simulated game Saturday. Showed a little video of him and he looks good.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 7, 2014 -> 07:36 PM) seriously, john danks has f***ing nothing. If the Cubs can't hit him, they should probably cancel the rest of their MLB season.' lol, and a swing through a grooved 87mph fastball. Man, I could hit that. He really doesn't have much control over his pitches... I couldn't even tell you if he has thrown a cutter well

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 7, 2014 -> 07:30 PM) Nice to see so early in game. Imagine if Beckham took some pitches.

Damn.. Good first inning though. Especially after those first two at bats

Last 4 AB's have been great

Cubans will just take this game over!!! We need some more!

I love having Abreu-Viciedo-Ramirez batting back to back to back

How is Abreu not killing these fastballs down the middle and on the outside portion of the plate? He hit the curveball though! Nice!

So with Beckham batting lead off why is De Aza batting 2nd?

Lead off hitter reaching for a pitch for only a 2 pitch at bat..

Danks really doesn't have good stuff anymore.. It just looks soft and he can't control it very well.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 7, 2014 -> 06:10 PM) I'm making a last minute decision to head down to Comiskey. Hopefully Danks doesn't have one of those 1st innings where he lets up 2-4 runs. I wish I had this luxury.
