Still feel good about this young season, chance for some guys to get their game on track and to start supporting this quality starting staff.

 

It's April 20th...hmm...lets get this west coast road trip started right!

...I wish Danks was pitching...

Could be a good night for Sale. Seattle is only hitting .191 against left handed pitching this year.

 

That's worse than us!

Even though I love pot jokes, this GIF made me lose it. Hahahahaha. Saving this one for future use.

Oh and hell yes, first Sox game this year I get to watch! Yay WGN!

Morel is gonna have to go 0-42 before he's dropped...

I'll be watching tonight, perfect start time!

Can we all agree that if Morel goes 2-20 with 10 K's on this roadtrip, he's got to go down?

Doesn't sound like Manto is going to be concerned about averages until they've had 250-300 at-bats this year, lol.

 

It's going to be a long season if they stick with Morel that long hitting 2nd and striking out about half the time.

Not a chance we will all agree on anything.

 

And I don't agree with what you said. Id give him much more of a chance than that. Probably at least another 100 ab.

What was Robin's infamous career starting streak - something like 0 for 41? I know this isn't Morel's MLB debut, but perhaps personal experience will make Robin more patient than most folks around here will be able to stand. :gosoxretro:

Actually it wasn't robins debut and also it wasn't as bad as people have been lead to believe. Its a myth. I think people attribute the myth to hawk.

Yeah, let's just fall out of it as soon as possible, even with a pitching staff good enough to make the playoffs. Sounds like a plan.

Ventura was 15-65 (.231) in his career when the 0-41 started in his last AB 4-18-90. His AB before the 0-41 started was a HR off Clemens.

Lol. So much drama. The plan is to give the guy a chance to succeed. The 40 ab you proposed is not enough of a chance.

Shocking. Though I prefer old Robin legends to Dwight Evans or Yaz.

The first step would be dropping to 8. If they really want him to start 6-60, then what choice do they have? Just lose with him? At that point, let him go down and figure it out.

 

Now that I've jinxed this sufficiently, he'll go 3-4 tonight.

So there was a 41 ab hitless streak in his first full season. I thought even that part was bull. How many games was it?
