QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 12:33 PM) 2011 called and said great move. 2011 saw Linceum and Latos in this hypothetical rotation and freaked out, saying that this they are best 1-2 combo in baseball.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 12:24 PM) Lincecum whispers are mounting they are?

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 09:03 AM) Sox are only averaging 2 hour and 53 minute game times this year if you take out the extra inning game. To watch the last 10-15 minutes of the game I would say more like 8:45 if there are no delays. That's true, I didn't factor the extra inning game time. Thanks

QUOTE (oldsox @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 09:56 AM) You're right. He does look much thinner. Anorexia maybe? Maybe he just wanted to lose weight... I don't think losing 10 pounds makes you anorexic. It's possible, but I doubt it

Planning my 15 minute break at work around watching the end of this game. Any suggestions/guesses? 915-930? Or do you think it will be later? I guess it depends on how many runs you expect to be scored.

His ERA from 2013-2015 was oddly consistent.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Apr 29, 2016 -> 05:17 AM) You can tell the guy cares and wishes he could be passable for this exciting team, but he just doesn't have ML stuff anymore. Rich or not, Danks is a guy I feel bad for but it's time for a change. Agreed. At the end of the day, money is just a secondary reinforcer and it's hard for me to not feel bad for him after the Hayes tweets.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 08:23 PM) Sad that this game ruins our amazing team pitching stats. agreed

Games like these are why I don't believe in the Pythagorean W/L model.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 07:58 PM) Danks next three starts if he makes them: 5-4 vs Red Sox 5-9 at Rangers 5-15 at Yankees Excited to see Erik Johnson face Boston next week.

f***

good double steal and AB

one swing and we could be tied

that's one way to end a 10-pitch AB

Goodbye winning streak. Goodbye Danks.

Do we have to use an option on Sanchez?

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 01:14 PM) Also, losing our lockdown closer = Sox are still cursed in Baltimore. Luckily, it looks like all 3 games could be rained out.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 01:14 PM) Well s***. I guess we'll get a look at Nate Jones being closer. How long is the bereavement list? 3 days? No less than 3, no more than 7

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 28, 2016 -> 09:15 AM) Four teams in MLB, including the Sox, have a lower ERA- than the 1993 Braves, who hit 75. Sox are the only AL team. Maybe one of the four pulls it off full season. What does that mean?

I'm worried about Baltimore's offense against us. But, I was also worried about Texas' and Toronto's offenses against us.

Sox pitcher ERAs thru 22: Albers- 0.00 Latos- 0.74 Jones- 0.84 Robertson- 0.87 Petricka- 1.35 Jennings- 1.42 Quintana- 1.47 Sale- 1.66 Duke- 2.25 Putnam- 3.12 Rodon- 4.05 Danks- 6.23

QUOTE (joegraz @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) How long since our last 6 game winning streak? July 2015

QUOTE (chi4lyfe @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) Now that it's safe, here's a fun little research assignment: Find the last time a Toronto team has beaten a Chicago team. Any sport. WHITE SOX WINNA, BABY! Would have to be the Leafs, no?

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 08:56 PM) Eh I dont have a problem using DRob here... Toronto can score a lot of runs in a hurry. you pull Webb/Jennings/whoever out if they allow a runner to enter scoring position.
