But we're only 1 game behind the Tigers after tonight!!!

Adam Dunn:

2011: .159, 177K's

2012: .204, 222K's

2013: .219, 189K's

2014: .220, 132K's (Partial season)

Adam LaRoche:

2015: .207, 133Ks

Todd Frazier: .199, 63K's (partial season

 

Keep going after sluggers, Sox. Never fails.

 

Oop another K for Todd. 64 now to go along with his .198 average.

Lost 25 of 35

 

4-13 vs Cle and KC

Avi goes down swinging on pitches outside the strike zone....gets really old really fast.

So when do you fire Ventura? I'm serious when?

Did you leave DET out on purpose, lol?

 

6-14 + 6-0 vs. MN=12-14

If Fathers Day is part of the equation, they may not be there to fire him. Maybe Monday in Boston, or Friday morning in Chicago.

Sox are the b**** of Clev.KC.DET year after year

Better to do it Monday...because having him eat it for Shields if James gets tattooed around again Thursday in Boston is going to seem ridiculous.

 

Then it will seem like this whole situation is more on Hahn than Ventura.

2 under .500 for the first time, believe it or not.

How has Frazier fallen so far so fast?

 

He was hitting under .200 earlier in the season I think.

Lincecum looked good tonight...sigh

Can we get Latos back?

Ventura announcing Shields will start again "He's gonna figure it out."

 

What an inspiring manager.

 

On Frazier's struggles. "He's gotta grind it out."

On the team's struggles: "We just gotta get out there."

 

Another Vince Lombardi, am I right, folks?

We've seen Robin say things after games, and then plans change.

 

Go ahead. Start him on Thursday afternoon at Fenway.

All I can say is WOW.

 

Think Rick is sweating a little bit right now given that he admitted even JR had some question about getting Shields?

I still can't lump Frazier with the Adams. And I don't think the NL/AL thing matters. The Sox just suck, and they bring out the suck in a lot of players. Anderson is next. Wait a month.

 

For the Sox it's beyond obvious.

 

I think the Sox would have a better chance of winning with Shields on the mound of they forfeit.

What is he supposed to say? How can he make veterans like Frazier hit better or pitcher's like Shields do better? What want to know is if we were sold damaged goods with Shields?

If Shields was damaged goods, wouldn't it have been incumbent on Hahn and the medical staff to look very closely over his last MRI or request a new one?

 

Especially when he's in his mid 30's and has already pitched 9 consecutive years with 200+ innings.

 

What's the limit of days with "no take backs"? As soon as you let him pitch in a game, he's yours?

 

We saw a perhaps similar situation with Sirotka/David Wells before 2001, if that's what turns out to be the case.

 

We're the patsies of the Central. Sox are officially a clown team. They've been the worst team in baseball for over a month now. They're not going anywhere.

Time to start a huge rebuild/reload. No need to fire Robin now but work on a manager for next season while trading off everybody except Sale and Quintana and Abreu, same scenario as after last season. Trade everybody you can besides those 3.

If you're going to rebuild, you trade Sale, Quintana, and Abreu.

Ventura puts me too sleep when he talks... and his team has played for 4 years like they are asleep.

 

 

It's not all on him though by any means. It's a bunch of clueless individuals from the very top to the bottom.

Wow just wooww...

 

There is no reason for Shields to start again.. not only is he getting hammered he is destroying our bullpen.

 

For F**** sake are these guys kidding?

 

The incompetence is getting monumental.

Worth it for the hilarious Lawrie GIF.

 

That one and the Quintana HOF plaque are the only thing helping me to maintain my sanity.

 

Going to have to try to track down the Navarro error, supposedly that one is priceless as well.
