QUOTE (joegraz @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 04:27 PM) just tuned in...why the *** is Hawk in the booth? I thought he was doing away games only. It is an away game.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 04:13 PM) Move Danks out for good. And who do you replace him with? Like it or not Danks is the best option for the 5th spot right now.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 01:28 PM) His WAR/162 was over 3 last year. That's because he had a crazy high DRS value last year, at +12 in just 60 games. At a full season's pace that would have been the second-best defensive season by a 3B since they started tracking DRS. I like Saladino, but that was likely to be unsustainable. And even with historically good defense he still wasn't coming close to 4 WAR over a full season.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 01:18 PM) 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) I don't think it's highly debatable that Saladino likely never puts up a 4 WAR season.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 11, 2016 -> 12:53 PM) Nice to see the Pirates with an early 3-0 lead on the Tigers. They are playing 2 home/2 away this week. The 20 interleague games can be a big factor in winning a division. 12-8 is very good. 8-12 is very bad. Nice to see Verlander get pounded. The Pirates would have more runs too if they didn't run into 2 outs already.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) Arrieta with more homers hit than allowed over last 22 starts. Well that didn't last long.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 02:47 PM) They didn't name the kid Drake? f*** that, that's not family first The name of the kid is in the first post of this thread.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 10, 2016 -> 12:14 AM) Where did you hear that? That's so annoying https://mobile.twitter.com/ChicagoSports/st...6174564352?s=09

Bumgarner hits a homerun off Kershaw again today. Great reaction by Kershaw. http://i.imgur.com/N870cS9.gifv

Jackson a bit unlucky today.

Albers wasn't throwing 94 last year was he?

That inning was just masterful by Albers.

I like the movement on Albers' pitches.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 9, 2016 -> 02:44 PM) Time for the offense to pick him up. He's pitched fine after a shaky start. Left that one too much over the plate and Napoli put a good swing on it That pitch was outside, Napoli just got a good swing on it.

Damnit that wasn't even a bad pitch.

92 mph fastball and then 96 mph fastball. Great sequence there by Sale.

Should have figured a guy who grew up in Florida would have trouble pitching in this weather.

Danks got screwed on that ball four call and by Avila.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 01:18 PM) Where at? Yeah I'm curious too, still sunny in Des Plaines.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 12:32 PM) if ligament tear in knee that requires surgery, he gone for 2016 If that is the case are his catching days pretty much done?

It's actually relatively nice out right now.

Calling it right now, Danks finishes the season with an ERA around 4.20-4.30, and we're more happy than disappointed with him this year. His 2nd half last year was no fluke.

Hell even Avi had a decent game in the field. Shout out to Lawrie for two great plays.

It feels like there's a world of difference between 3-1 and 2-2. Great win.
