That Shark trade is probably pissing everyone off. The A's turned Russell into Semien, Phegley and Bassit and the Sox turned Semien, Bassit and Phegley into a 2 WAR rental in a non competing year. Christ on a cookie.

Garcia with a weak GIDP to the right side.

What an awful approach by Avi, leads to an easy 4-6-3 DP

Granted the pitching failed this series but LaRoche and Avi are f***ing terrible ball players.

Avi needs a slumpbuster and another winter ball season and then 500 more PA then they can give up on him. Sucks they can't afford to carry a replacement level Avi but is what it is too many holes elsewhere.

I hate reality

And the Cubs got a potential stud SS in the deal as well

Twins lose. Blow another chance to gain games on him

Another national telecast and another desultory effort by the White Sox.

 

Seems to happen every time.

They need to get Saladino out of the 2nd spot, as he's not doing much of anything over the last 10 days offensively.

Great post! Robin is in love with the new guy who is obviously laboring. Put him eighth or ninth. And give him a fricking day off or 2 a week.

 

New drinking game: take a shot every time Hawk says Kansas City Special

What is up with his Kansas City special? He does say it way too much.

 

Sure glad he threw those 15-20 or so pointless pitches last game out.

Great post! Those things are noticeable. Good job, fathom.

 

Shocker, benches empty in Toronto/KC game. Volquez acting like a psycho yet again.

KC has had problems with Sox, Indians, A's, Blue Jays. They are too cocky.

 

Hopefully LaRoche can pitch 2 out of 3 days

Nice post. Why didn't Leury pitch today??

 

Between last night with DJ on the radio and Stone right there on TV, the Sox announcers are being openly critical of Avi's approach at the plate.

How can he expect to excel all hunched over like he is. He needs to be sent down and re-invent his offensive game (oops I've said that bout Viciedo). Seriously flip flop them for 2 weeks. Viciedo in bigs; Avi in smalls.

 

They should. It sucks. And it's on the coaching staff for not getting his approach right.

His approach blows. Good post.

Don't forget the Angels! And "too cocky" is quite the understatement
