August 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 12, 2014 -> 10:36 PM) missed the game, Sale was lights out it looks like. What did Gordon do? Made a couple very good plays in the field and knocked in the eventual winning run with 2 outs in the 10th after De Aza failed to get the run in from 3rd with 1 out.
August 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 12, 2014 -> 10:34 PM) Sale!!! Dunn!!! Gordo!!! Don't forget my boy Sierra for getting Danks to 3rd with his hit.
August 13, 201411 yr Author Game winning RBI and this.. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?g...p_copy_35321123 That as with the bases loaded and nobody out.
August 13, 201411 yr QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 12, 2014 -> 11:45 PM) That scares Sox fans of having to put up another year of Beckham. Not as scary as another year of this terrible bullpen.
August 13, 201411 yr Good job, Gordon Beckham. You got to flip the finger at those of us who have hated on you tonight. Nice job. Sale ... the master!
August 13, 201411 yr Wish I got to see more of Sale tonight. I'll await the video compilation of his 12 Ks. I think I only saw 2 of them.
August 13, 201411 yr I don't care what anyone believe or what statistics say, if Chris Sale played for an NL team he would be considered hands down the best pitcher in the world.
August 13, 201411 yr Pretty dumb move by Robin putting Adam effing Dunn in right field. He can't play outfield. Ridiculous. It's a good thing Dunn basically won the game with his 2 run homer, but still, it's dumb because Robin did it and he loses all of our games for us.

It's a good thing Dunn basically won the game with his 2 run homer, but still, it's dumb because Robin did it and he loses all of our games for us. Probably part of showcasing him that he can "semi-adequately" play another position besides DH and 1B. He actually has more experience in the outfield than at first, but not recently. Plus, Viciedo has been pretty cold recently (except for hitting a few homers).

It's a good thing Dunn basically won the game with his 2 run homer, but still, it's dumb because Robin did it and he loses all of our games for us. Well he tried to blow it in the first inning by calling for Jose Abreu to hit into a double play, but Jose didn't listen to him and hustled down the first base line.

It's a good thing Dunn basically won the game with his 2 run homer, but still, it's dumb because Robin did it and he loses all of our games for us. I'm sure if you asked him about it, he'd say something dumb like "well we wanted to get Dunn's bat in the lineup against a soft-tossing right-hander." Pssh, when has that EVER worked? Except last night when it worked exactly. Just another example of RV making a right move that could have turned into a wrong move but didn't but should have to fit the narrative and getting LUCKY and should be FIRED.

You have to wonder if Jose got the cold shoulder after that one. Tension in the dugout? Could Abreu request a trade? WHO WILL JERRY REINSDORF CHOOSE? Obviously his man, Robin. Abreu will be waiver traded this month. You heard it here first.

With his unwillingness to listen to the manager you think he'd pass through waivers semi easily so we should be able to trade him to any team.
August 13, 201411 yr I still fault Robin. Abreu didn't practice hitting into DPs enough in Spring Training.
