QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) I thought Quintana got a ND in his start? correct

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 01:27 PM) I don't think it's highly debatable that Saladino likely never puts up a 4 WAR season. His WAR/162 was over 3 last year.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 01:16 PM) We need more of a sample size on JR though. That 2014 Rollins season is better than anything you can get from Saladino even from his fully realized ceiling. So you have to exhaust the small chance you can still get that '14 production from him. And it takes more than a handful of atbats to determine it. That is highly debatable. (The defensive value Saladino brings plus his hitting that probably wouldn't be too much worse may be better than Rollins' overall production)

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 12:46 PM) Panik has outplayed Weise lately. And Ladd is fine, going to practice tomorrow. Isn't Weise famous for "flipping the switch" come playoff time, though?

I like Navarro starting against the righty.

Don't worry guys, I'm wearing my Quintana shirsey today. Bad luck averted.

The MN lineup isn't that bad. Really 6-8 are the weaknesses.

It's Sale who is horrible in Minnesota (at least in 2015), not Quintana, right?

The Twins' first W this year will likely be against us...

Abreu

Garcia

Eaton

Bad luck Quintana may start a couple innings, then have it be wasted due to a delay

A 60% chance of rain at 2 is the only time that there is more than a 50% chance of it

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 10:30 AM) And then was the number 1 overall draft pick. My point was he was overlooked for being too small in his youth and then was the #1 pick.

QUOTE (Tex @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 10:31 AM) There doesn't seem to be a winning formula in lineups. A manager who tries to "ride the hot bat" and freely makes adjustments is accused of making players uncomfortable, the players don't know their roll from day to day, etc. A manager who dogmatically keeps the same line up each day gets blasted for leaving a guy in who isn't performing. Not taking advantage of hot hitters . . . This isn't about going to the hot hand. I'm willing to bet that Jackson finishes the season with a higher OBP than Rollins, which is why I want them switched/moved (I put Eaton second originally because he has more power than Jackson but that wasn't a well-liked idea).

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 10:26 AM) This is dumb. Put Saladino at 2B and Lawrie at DH. I don't think Saladino plays 2B. And where would Sands go? Who would play SS?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 9, 2016 -> 09:46 PM) From what I read about him, your typical overlooked for being too small. Sounds a lot like the story of a guy who just scored 106 points for us (referring to his days where he didn't make the USA youth team despite dominating competition)

Ynoa? He has made one AA appearance and is a high-A pitcher. Why not Carroll/Turner/Aumont? Is it an options thing?

QUOTE (gosoxgo2005 @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 08:12 AM) If the sox are contending for a playoff spot at the end of the year, Jackson is hitting 9th If the Sox are contending for a playoff spot at the end of the year, Rollins is not hitting 2nd

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 9, 2016 -> 05:21 PM) BTW there was a crack in the left corner of the big board today's apparently Trvor Bauer was flying his drone and crashed into it. I hope they stick him with the bill and not the taxpayers. Where did you hear that? That's so annoying

At the very least, can we agree that Jackson should be moved up/Rollins should be moved down?

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 9, 2016 -> 04:24 PM) Great game on the field. One of the worst fan experiences I had, and it's been a growing trend. Sox have a lot of work to do. Going to six games has been like sitting in a traffic jam recently. At least they gave out certificates for free/discounted future tickets
