He's one of the worst starters in baseball the last 3 years. He's the textbook definition of an awful starter

No, Chen is definition of an awful starter. Carroll was an awful starter. Humber at the end was the definition of an awful starter. Noesi is an AWFUL starter. No stuff. Meatballs galore. Nibbler. Not an attacker.

Seriously Greg is acting like Danks is 7 years old and playing baseball for fun

I respect guys who come back from injury and battle. You guys are a tough crowd. I stand by my statement he's the LEAST of the Sox problems.

Sanchez has officially hit a wRC+ of 0. 0. Over 102 plate appearances. 0. .141/.200/.174.

He can still go negative correct? Didn't Leury have a negative wRC+ last year?

For context, the next lowest wRC+ for players with over 100 PA is Kristopher Negron's 23.

Oh I'm going to shed a tear now.

 

He didnt come back from an injury after fighting for his country. He's playing baseball and getting paid alot of money to do it. Plus he sucks.

I guess Robertson does need some work.

Leury's was 2, but yes it's possible to go negative

In June, Robertson will have more appearances:

 

1. in save situations

2. Because he needs work.

 

What do y'all think? As of today its 3 save situations versus 2 "needs work".

LOL nobody will comment on the point I made in my post that Danks is the LEAST of the Sox problems. If he sucks, what is the word to describe Noesi and some of the god-awful relievers and No. 5 starters this team has had the past few years? Danks gives up 3 runs in 7 innings and sucks? I beg to differ.

Trade him. ASAP for a batch of good baseball players/prospects. Hahn/KW can get a good haul for Robertson.

You realize his statistics that say he isnt good arent based on one game right? I know how frightened you are with numbers.

Actually, he's among the top of their problems. He's a waste of a roster spot, a waste of around 15 million dollars, and in today's MLB, an ERA over 5 means you are DFA material. THis isn't the steroid era where an ERA over 5 means you are a 5th starter. Check the 5th starters around league, most of them are no worse than 4.5 ERA, if that.

He'd be lucky to return a B level prospect. Nobody pays for closers and in this case "paying" would be getting a legit top 10 prospect from another org. Best they could do would be to foment a bidding war and get another A ball arm thrown in or maybe a MLB ready bullpen piece.

Ok Hawk, we get it. You met David Robertson's family. Now stop f***ing calling him "Luke's dad."

Some hope - LaRoche has to face a righty. And Marte is out if we could somehow tie it up.

Remember when the org spun all that "we are loaded with SS/2B prospects"

 

LMAO. hahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahah.

 

Sanchez has been awful I won't bother defending him but Micah as just as bad, expect in the field. This org can't develop talent for s***. I'm piling on but f*** it, it's time to pile on.

Well here's the actual threatening hitter.

Pathetic at bat by Avi

Nobody wants David Robertson, arguably the best closer in the league??

There's no arguably about it he's no where close.

Avi just lost the last week.

this will be a fitting end with lexi

LOL at hitting right into the shift. What a team player, Mr. LaRoche. Fail.

8 below .500, worst level of the season, and we get to face Cole and the best ERA in the NL tomorrow.

Well, at least it hurts the Cubs. Hopefully Marte is ok. Time for massive changes for the Sox, what a failure by everyone in this organization,

cervelli would have been a good acquisition for this team
