  1. I always thought Robertson was really good. What amazes me is Zach Duke turning into a quality reliever after being somewhere between a stiff and mediocre for 8 years.
  2. QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 06:37 PM) Petricka will do his rehab for Charlotte. Penny and Lindstrom hit the DL today. If either Penny or Lindstrom become a factor on this roster, the Sox are in deep trouble.
  3. QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 04:24 PM) Sorry if it was posted, how many years left does robin have on his contract? IMO, the sox will never fire him but I could see them not renewing his contract when it's up QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 04:25 PM) IIRC we were never told. We knew he originally had a 3 year deal but then we were told after year 2 he signed a "contract extension" but the length was never given. Not even Baseball Prospectus knows the end date and they usually have access to hard to find contract info.
  4. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 05:57 PM) Noeisi hasn't shown he can save a bullpen yet. I know there is a lot of Danks hate, but if Noesi didn't have those shadows last Friday, he might not have lasted 2 innings. Water seeks its own level. In baseball terms ... Noesi and a ~5.00 ERA.
  5. QUOTE (SCCWS @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 05:25 PM) My problem with Robin is he didn't play the percentages. As many have said, Eaton does not know how to bunt and should never have been asked to do so. The percentages say it was a bad decision. But the bigger problem is he had 2 of his best RBI men this year in Flowers and Beckham on the bench. Robin should have gone with the percentages there and hit for Melky and Jose and we would have at least tied the game. Besides Flowers at 1st and BecKham in left would have made for some exciting extra innings Wait a minute. Are you testing out Letterman's opening monologue for tonight?
  6. A college sophomore scores for the US against Mexico. Not a proud night for El Tri.
  7. QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 05:18 PM) So when I mentioned no David Luiz as a bad thing for PSG, I was definitely wrong. Suarez made Luiz his b**** in the second half. He got nutmegged twice. 50M euros to get nutmegged for 2 goals after he goes to Russia for a miracle cure on his hamstring.
  8. Maybe the Indians think they can get more than 10,000 at lunch time. At least it won't be 40 degrees like it would be at night
  9. A snooze fest between Real Madrid and Atletico in the Champions League today. I suspect tomorrow's game between PSG and Barcelona could be much more entertaining.
  10. Tonight Boston scored 3 in the 7th inning on no hits, 3 errors, 2 HBPs, and a brain fart by Desmond when he was on the infield grass and threw to first with a runner halfway between third and home ... which happened to be the winning run.
  11. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 10:28 PM) and to think Joe Nathan is getting paid roughly the same this year. Stud closers are worth 10+ million and Robertson is one of them no doubt. His stats and stuff reflect that. Unless he suddenly loses command, it's hard to see him not being at least average closer or better through his deal. It's not like he'd be awful if he lost a couple ticks on his fastball. At some time before his contract ends, he is bound to lose a little off his fast ball, but he still could wind up with more than 1 K per inning with a low walk ratio.
  12. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 10:13 PM) Robertson seems to try to be Buehrle fast. Get the sign and chuck it. Trust your stuff.
