f*** it play Sanchez or Saladino at DH. Anyone but Avi because he can't do a darn thing for this team

Avi doesn't do anything well.

Swung at the same pitch three f***ing times. Get him out of here!

Good god Avi

Let's see how Avi won't get these runners in

He was due for an error

Rodon sucks today

This is April Rodon.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 06:15 PM) Rodon continues to disappoint He's very young and still maturing.

What a throw considering he dove then had to get up with a runner in his way.

Brett! Helluva play! That's smart baseball

Only give up a run if need be. Let's go Carlos!

I'm greedy sweep the Yanks and Braves and go into the break on nice win streak Looking forward to a dominate outing for Rodon. Started out good against Minnesota then had a rough 6th inning.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 04:08 PM) With all the ridiculous things you post all the time, the most hilarious thing is your continual defense of Rios. It also completely goes against your entire philosophy, it's a complete mystery. Being on a team that won the World Series doesn't mean that player was any good. And the fact that De Aza (-1.1 WAR this year) is still playing isn't an actual argument for anything. IIRC De Aza was awful is why we didn't get anything. Rios had a bloated contract and is why we got him from Toronto for nothing. Basically what we did too.

Just want to make sure he doesn't come up and walk everyone and their mother and be a disaster. We'll see how he does in AA.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 02:17 PM) There definitely appears to be a plan. If he struggles, I wouldn't rush him.

Definitely on the fast track we'll see how he does.

I don't see the Bulls really being in it and I just think Wades camp is using them as leverage.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 12:02 PM) Sox will not be trading for Ryan Braun. Thank god!

Morneau buys us a little time. Reddick or Lucroy would tickle me to death. Then add a reliever or two. Plus we'll have options in the minors, so reinforcements are on the way.

I posted this this weekend in one of the recaps in future sox. I find it hard to believe but not impossible.

@ChuckGarfien Most hits in the American League in the last 7 days: Tim Anderson 12 Josh Donaldson 12 Jose Ramirez 12 Kendrys Morales 12 Tim is a multi-hit game machine right now. So awesome to have a hitter come up and produce. His defense has been better than advertised. Plus as he said, he's playing on professional fields now not minor league fields. I honestly think he'll improve his BB rate as he gets older and matures. He's held off on some pitches that Avi always swings at. He may never take a ton of BBs but he gets on base and his speed is a legit threat that will scare some teams once he learns these pitchers moves and starts swiping bases at a good clip.

There was no harm in trading for shields. Paying some of that contract may make some mad but if he pitches like has his last three starts its worth it.

Trading for a controllable bat is ideal. Wonder what SD would want for Myers?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 4, 2016 -> 10:55 PM) 1) at the Yankees needing to improve the back end of the bullpen. 2) Sox backend is fine. It's Albers, Ynoa and Beck that need replacing. Sucks that Cat Albers is MIA I want a couple of arms by the deadline
