Either the GM for coming up with this trash or the mgr for running it out there every day? The tv guys trying to make bubic effort sound cy young like when to me its just another average 10 plus k effort from the Sox batters. This is an absolute joke

Who else is Venable suppose to put out there on the 26 man roster

His answer — littered with both positive and cautious quote fragments — is a bit difficult to decode.

“I feel pretty comfortable,” said Getz. “The way I view starting pitching — how many guys do we have that can take starts throughout a year versus ‘these are five guys.’ We all know that’s not realistic."

“You want arms that are taking starts that aren’t well below replacement level. You need guys that are competent, that can give you quality innings. Obviously, it’s great to have the higher-end guys, and we’re continuing to try to develop that and acquire that. But in the meantime, so and so goes down and can’t make the start — do we have options that can give us a quality start that day?" yahoo.com/sports

Relax and take your son to a Cubs game.

There is only one person who is responsible for this clown show and that is the owner, a fish rots from the head.

Tray doesn’t speak for this site, you are far from the only frustrated fan. Bubic is a good pitcher but you are right in that we shouldn’t be seeing his best personal game when we face him.

Hopefully at some point this season we can point to some good progression and see that everything is starting to come together.

A few random thoughts about the offense. I am disappointed that the offense looks so anemic after looking decent after the all star break last season. Honestly, I did expect a regression from Colson this season just because you do see that in second year players often. Let's see how he adjusts. I am not shocked by the slow start by Murakami as he learns a new league. I do not know if he was normally a slow starter in Japan like we used to see from Abreu. Finally, when your offense is this anemic Sosa should not be sitting on the bench. Give him at bats and he will produce the offensive numbers this team needs. They clearly are not going to play him at 2B and I have no idea why they did not have him in the OF in Spring Training so it looks like he will have to DH. Benintendi is done, just DFA him.
