I wanted to start one more game thread this season, but not more than one, so I picked Samardzija's start.

Let's see whether the Sharkmeister has really figured it out. Let's get a win tonight

Hell no, at this point in the season I'm rooting for a loss. We need every advantage we can get in the overall draft standings. That means more to the success of this franchise than Shark winning a meaningless game in September. Although really they've all been meaningless since July.

Royals have to be two games better than the Blue Jays over the last 6 games to get home field advantage throughout.

Just for fun, how far into the game will Samardzija be when he throws his 88th pitch tonight?

Sad with the amount of Sanchez we've been seeing over the final week and a half. You already know what he is, why not run Micah out there

Somehow the Sox took three straight at Kauffman vs. KC the last time out. Would be crazy if Sox swept 'em again. KC has no momentum rightnow for the playoffs. Team is embedded in its first real funk. Sox have cured them and other central teams before.

Maybe they want to avoid more injuries with Micah this year and giving him only a few spot starts going forward. No problem with Sanchez getting more at bats, as he's the likely starter at 2nd next year.

That wouldn't be good from a draft/slot allowance perspective. With Rodon not pitching the rest of the way, I'm cool with the Sox losing every game the rest of the way 9-8 with Sale and Q staying healthy and Abreu/Eaton/Trayce/Sanchez/Avi hitting well.

We're 4 games behind the Marlins who have been better lately and play the Rays and Phillies this week. They'd need to win every game and Sox would have to lose every game to finish with the 7th pick. It certainly is possible but I think the Sox will finish with 8th pick.

That would be a good question for the manager to answer.

Hawk, you are a failure at life.

Cain robs Thompson. What a catch.

Cain look at what I found.

Some incredible d that inning. Must be nice.

One of many reasons RV should be fired next Monday.

I heard Hawk say "you can put it on the board!" in excitement, then walked over to the TV five minutes later to see it 0-0. Rewound and saw his s*** call on the Cain catch. Jeez.

RBI 98 for JDA

Sox 1-0

What does the "D" stand for? Dariel I'm assuming?

Avi is so bad

Avi is so bad

We were sold a bill of goods on him from KW/Hahn. He has been a major disappointment.

can you believe KW said he was going to be a 300 hitter/ 30 hr/ 30 SB guy?
