This team isn't winning a World Series.

 

 

Of course, you would have said the same thing about the White Sox on September 15th, 2005.

 

Or numerous times about the Cardinals in 2006 or 2011.

I can't believe they got 30,000 people to pay good money to watch this crap.

The nibbler!!!!!! Is it odd that both of our dumbest players have bad plays and we go to the s***ter? De aza needs to go, period

Jones should go down, regroup and regain his confidence and control.

 

Flowers should go down because he is not a major league player.

 

Didn't expect him to hit much.

 

But he's terrible on blocking balls in the dirt -- and flat out misses more balls than I can believe.

Maybe now some people will realize just how important AJ was to this team.

 

 

Still don't think we should have overpaid him, but, with how the offense has struggled this season, anything resembling AJ's bat from 2012 would have been a huge help.

 

The odds of a repeat were pretty low...and then you were going to be putting off determining the future at that position by yet another season.

 

Of course, AJ's been injured as well.

Wow thanks for that really useful post.

Yeah I sometimes do that. My bad.

Right around the 80 pitch mark.

 

So much for the idea of getting to the Cubs' bullpen.

30,631 on a holiday.

 

Wow...can't believe it almost ended up under 30K, and a good 10,000 of them are cheering for the Cubs.

Let's face it, 26,000 is a huge crowd for the Sox this season.

.500 is the upside of this team. Robin is doing a helluva job to have the Sox right there.

Meh. I feel confident with Sale, Peavy, and Danks going for us to win the next 3. Quitnana is just a damn nibbler.

We could be Royals' fans....4-17 stretch now, 21-27 after starting out 17-10. 9 consecutive home losses.

 

 

 

St. Louis has the majors’ best record at 33-17.

 

The western portion of the I-70 Series concludes Tuesday night before the teams shift to Busch Stadium for games Wednesday and Thursday.

 

From there, the Royals head to Texas, which has the American League’s best record, for three weekend games.

 

Yeah. This was just the start to a tough week.

 

“We’re fine,” third baseman Miguel Tejada declared. “Everybody can see that when we take the field every day, we’re playing hard and everybody knows we’re going to win the game.

 

“What can we do right now? Just play hard and try to make something happen. One day, it’s going to go our way, and we’re going to start to roll.”

 

It wasn’t Monday.

AJ was better handling pitchers and better defensively as well as with the bat. Flowers has done nothing well and he doesn't appear to be very durable either. Plus AJ was the real on field leader of that team.

It's time for Omo to be preferred over Jones. Nate is an outing or two away from Charlotte. He has got to get things going.

Hawks and sox both look like crap.

All indications are that the team was happy to see him leave, and IMO Flowers is the better pitch caller which is why guys like Peavy pretty much demanded to throw to him. Let AJ stay in the past.

santiago should be pitching over him and axelrod to be honest. let quintana and axelrod be the 5th and 6th starter.

Nah. We need to limit our talented pieces to the bullpen.

That is not what he said

Sox seem to make everyone's first shutout or best game ever highlight.

Edited by Soxfest

Is there a Blackhawk message board? I wanna read the meltdown. Hawks playing horribly in 2nd period.

K some more De Aza :angry:
