Jose Abreu

I think a nice, juicy trade would lift our spirits right now.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 09:14 PM) I'd pitch Danks. That would be funny. Same outcome more than likely. Of all people to say that too, Greg is probably the worst

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 09:13 PM) If they get up by 10, I'd pitch Beckham for team morale. Funny moment for the flight home. Or Leury Garcia. Didn't he pitch last year?

Why play the Star Wars music after a HR, Fenway? How is that at all related?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 09:11 PM) I wish the White Sox blew out teams like this

No way the FO decides to not be buyers because of this. Come on, guys. The overreaction is too extreme.

Looks like Sanchez and Cabrera will both lose their streaks

3.20 ERA? Cy Young just got a lot less realistic. He's got some work to do.

PFF Larrold ‏@Larry_Boa 1m1 minute ago If you were a buyer this morning and a seller tonight because of a fluky bad outing by Chris Sale, I don't even know what to say.

Most of you were saying "Ok, after the Cleveland sweep I'm not convinced. Let's take 3 out of 4 in Boston and then we'll talk." Well, we took 3 out of 4. Winning 8 games in a row is no easy task.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:57 PM) Seriously sell. It was a nice run but you can't expect the team to play red hot baseball. I've been on the sell train for a while now. Really? Is 1 > 7? QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:57 PM) Hope the team comes to play in the next game and stop its streaky ways. Need desperately to win a game after losing four in a row, winning this many in a row, then losing one finally. Can't turn one loss into two, into three. Not with the team buying instead of selling. Agreed

Goodbye, Sale's ERA. I'll miss you.

Red Sox writers are probably drooling over this. "His stock is down, let's write articles about getting him for Sandoval straight-up!"

Well, I guess we're due for a loss. Not gonna overreact and vouch for selling

take him the f*** out!

This will hurt his Cy Young case

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:52 PM) We did face a knuckleballer. That'll throw your rhythm off as a hitter I'm sure. And we had no batting practice

This takes me back to April. Hard to watch

JFC. Bring the infield in. Bases loaded zero outs...

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:50 PM) Relax guys it's only the sixth. Our offense hasn't shown any signs of scoring more runs, though

Sale was probably banking on 8+ runs of support tonight, and I don't blame him

That's great...

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:46 PM) SOB, they're literally right where we are. I have no idea when or how that happened. They're on a nice stretch. Tomas has helped a lot. Still wish we signed him; he and Abreu would be quite the duo.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:43 PM) Huh? the DBacks are buying? I know I was busy today but when did that happen? Pretty sure they're the second hottest team in baseball. Buying seems dumb though. They're not even top-three in their own division (SD about to pass them). As a D'Backs fan, I'm confused by wanting Chapman.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Jul 30, 2015 -> 08:43 PM) I think Fathom originally mentioned post ASB. I don't know why this is debatable. He did originally mention post-ASB, but I asked him if he was watching today's game, because he seemed, at that point, to be sharper today.
