  1. Lopez will go 7, Minaya gets the 8th and 9th (and coughs up the lead), meanwhile Burr and Vieira collect so much dust just sitting down for most of 8 days that they become unrecognizable
  2. Following tonight's game, the New York Yankees have acquired OF Ryan LaMarre from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for cash considerations or a player to be named later.
  3. I think he'd be best suited for your Soxtalk group located under your username on your posts
  4. Really don't get all the negativity. He allowed some hard contact in the 1st and 2nd but this has been a good start. That inning wasn't his fault with the defense he received. More swings and misses than he's had in awhile, and a lot on the offspeed. Speaking of the offspeed, the command of it has been incredible.
  5. Example 2755283239 of why errors are a meaningless stat. If no play is made on the ball, they can't rule an error.
  6. For all the crap Abreu gets for his defense, he's still a hell of a lot better out there than any other 1B on our roster.
  7. This reminds me of the people who always demand a catcher who's good at framing, good at throwing runners out, good at handling a staff, and good at offense. They act as if we should easily find this player and it's our scouting department's fault for not coming up with him. Yet, there are like, 1-2 catchers who fit all those requirements in all of baseball. Anderson is the least of our problems. You can pencil him in as the #9 hitter on a good team at shortstop and call it a win, especially with what he's getting paid.
  8. Maybe other than catcher, it's the one position where OBP doesn't really matter as much
  9. Eloy Jimenez will prove he's the next Miguel Cabrera or JD Martinez
  10. I know he's on a nice streak but I'm still surprised by the amount of Adam Engel I'm seeing penciled in at center field. I'm still far from sold on him as a starter
  11. I feel like this is the kind of thing where he's day to day with a bruise and then the next day he's placed on the 10 day DL
  12. That should be the case, but (I may be wrong) I feel like they've had opportunities to do this with their 5th starter in recent years but have deliberately gone through a normal, 5 starter rotation with the extra rest early on
  13. I'm not even that mad about Minaya pitching on back to back days. I just want to know why we called up Vieira and Burr to never use them.
  14. How about literally anyone who didn’t go 1.2 innings yesterday? How about Burr, who has now been here for 7 games and made one appearance?
  15. I guess the tank isn’t over while Ricky is managing.
  16. Minaya pitched 1.2 innings yesterday, Burr and Vieira have been used like once each in the past 7 games, and we go to minaya
  17. I thought of that today. 2014 Cubs used a relatively decent second half to lure a big FA and then they won 97 games in 2015. Our second half has been better than theirs was to date
