QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:34 PM) Yep, we let him get the game to the Royals 'pen, so a nice 0-3 start looking squarely at this team. Well he'll probably be out next inning, and I'd rather face him than their pen.

Can anyone give me a description of the catch?

C'mon, if you had told me Danks would have only given up 1 run through 4 I'd think we'd have a nice lead right now.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 02:01 PM) It's 4 innings into his 1st start. Also he's been getting hit hard, his defense is bailing him out.

Abreu with 3 hits on the year, all for extra bases, what a stud.

If Yost wants to keep having guys bunt (especially when those guys have been killing us), feel free to keep doing it. I love the gimme outs.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:39 PM) Yes. There is no reason to pass on a pitch you can hit hard just to work a count. You may not get another anywhere near as good to hit. Especially with their bullpen. We don't need to make Volquez's pitch count run high, just get good wood on him.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 01:39 PM) Probably the first game. I haven't seen higher than 91 I don't think On Gameday I saw 92.

How fast was Danks' fastball last year?

Only 5 pitches that inning for Volquez but I don't care, I'd rather face him than their bullpen. If you see a good pitch swing away.

Could have been worse, please hit Volquez now.

I can't wait to leave KC.

Gameday showing 92 mph, is that right?

What's the challenge? I can't see the game.

I'm somehow feeling more confident about this game than I felt about the last two going in. I know Danks sucks but he seems to do well against KC, and Volquez is not very good, we should be able to rough him up.

We just need to pound Volquez tomorrow.

Hitting is down across the league and here we give up 17 runs in 2 games, and I'll be shocked if we don't give up 5+ tomorrow.

Really hope we don't go home 0-3, Danks better have something tomorrow.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:16 PM) That won the AL last season. Yeah but that was because their offense hit way better in the playoffs than they did all season. Their offense was not good last year.

Every out is a struggle, and this is against a team with a below-average lineup. Christ.

I just want one reliever who can throw strikes, is that too much to ask for?

This game is sooo slow, I miss Mark Buehrle.

Avi looks really good at the plate today.

Can we ever have an easy inning in the field?

Sigh, why can't we beat the Royals.
