bjm676 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 25, 2016 -> 02:53 PM) Every struggling SP rights the ship against the hitless wonders. Hahn needs to upgrade now. Matt Harvey for Mets on Monday. That will put him back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 25, 2016 -> 02:53 PM) I've been saying it all week, but: Eaton Jackson Frazier Cabrera Abreu Lawrie Garcia Catcher Saladino And Abreu can move back to 3 if he keeps hitting This. This right here. Why Robin doesn't use your lineup suggestion is bafflling to me. It's almost like he doesn't want to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan85 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 The funniest thing I read on this board thus far this week is when somebody wrote that the bottom of our lineup the other game of Avila, Saladino, and Jackson (in no particular order) looked like a "poop sandwich" I thought that was a very good analogy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Normally I am one to preach patience, but this is no longer a slump. A slump lasts a week or two. Good teams bounce back. The Sox haven't. Given recent history, I think is just who they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 QUOTE (Scoots @ May 25, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) Where was the team we saw in April? Where in the hell did it go? I just don't understand. I get that its a long season and teams are going to go into a funk, but how long is this going to last? Is this the true Sox team? I really hope not, but it seems like it is. The pitching came back to life. The hitting sucked most of April as well but our pitching was so damn good we won close games nearly every night. I said in a lot of winner threads that we couldn't keep winning this 2-1, 3-2, 1-0 ball games. The pitching was bound to come back to average and the hitting still sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Which isn't to say I expect them to lose 8/10 for the rest of the season. They have been pretty unlucky lately. They are, however, almost certainly a below average to bad team, offensively. The pitching will probably be fine, but scoring 0-3 runs a game won't net many wins.

Harry Chappas Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Arietta was on the ropes a couple of times and got out of it and Kris Bryant just iced it. I know nobody cares about the cub but it is just frustrating to watch an offense bailout a pitcher while Sale crumbled, could get out of an inning and the offense retained its turtle posture. Same as today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really dislike Rollins' game that much, but I do dislike him batting 2nd, especially when he is being outperformed by Saladino. You don't give your 2nd worst hitter in the lineup (Avila being worst) the 2nd most plate appearances over the course of a season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
