Alexei wouldn't have even gotten a glove on that ball.

Nice job Spanky!

What are your predictions for Rodon today? I say: 5.2 IP, 5 H, 3 ER, 3 BB, 6 K and he goes the no decision. The amount of tough right handed hitters the Tigers have scares me a bit for Rodon, but I think he can handle them ok.

Alexei is seriously going downhill so fast.

That defense is something I would've expected the Sox to do.

YES!!!!!!

Sanchez got a hit. I think I'm dreaming.

Soto is so much better than Flowers.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 23, 2015 -> 07:52 PM) This team has such a crazy lack of power ANYWHERE. Fixed it for you.

Alexei is done.

Melky is one of the worst free agent signings by the Sox EVER.

I don't get why the Twins would move Buxton from the leadoff spot to #9 in the order. He provided a spark last night, why fix something if it ain't broke?

Welcome to the forum! I'm a relatively new member myself, but there is no better place to talk Sox baseball than here.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 23, 2015 -> 10:04 AM) Danks deserves to go, he has made a lot of guys all stars this year. Post of the week. Well done.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 08:31 PM) I would rather see Junior Guerra start Me too. Scott Carroll or even Brad oldass Penny would be better options.

Please get rid of Danks. PLEASE.

Alexei is done. Enough said.

Another out on the basepaths...sheesh.

Danks fuggin blows.

Robertson MIGHT have a chance if he starts to pitch well again. He was dominating for a long time until he hit a road bump a few weeks ago.

I'm 99.9% sure that Sale will be there, but will any other Sox players make it? Maybe Abreu and Robertson could have a chance to get in. What do you guys think? I figured this could be a nice discussion.

QUOTE (jdupps @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 11:11 AM) If the SOX are not willing to trade Sale or Quintana, Abreu is the only position player in our entire system that would return a proven starter and top prospect. It would be interesting to see what the SOX could get for Avi. Since this team has 5 major holes (C,1B,2B,SS,DH) out of 8 moving Abreu or Avi still leaves 4-5 holes just at different positions. How are 1B/DH holes? Abreu and LaRoche aren't terrible.

Were they even that close? I really don't know.

I like Avi batting 2nd. He should get better pitches to hit now that Abreu is behind him.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 12:02 AM) There's no reason to trade Sale, Q, Rodon or Danks. Once again, that's a good foursome for the future. A playoff foursome. Now what they have to do like I said before is try again with the everyday lineup and bullpen. Trade all the guys I've mentioned in many threads as a do-over and also add Duke and Robertson to the trade lineup. You are talking about another chance at acquiring productive ballplayers. Hahn can't keep striking zero on trades. Granted Melky and LaRoche and Lexi, etc., won't bring as much as before but they'll still bring something. Boston is starting DeAza for gawdsakes. Teams need name players and we got em and need to f***ing trade them ASAP! Time is wasting. We're not winning anything with these guys in the future. Trade them now. The words "Danks" and "a good future" should never be used in the same thought.
