QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 01:59 PM) What I am asking is if they hired your dream manager for the 2012 season and the rosters were exactly the same, how much more winning does this team do? For Hahn and KW or both to fire Robin now, they would be putting their necks on the line because if the team didn't suddenly improve, the arrow points at them. Would anyone blame them for not doing that? Robin is the scapegoat for this season if they fail. If they fire him and still fail, it goes up the ladder. You are not going to get an answer because they can't tell you anything. What they can do is gripe and proclaim their gloom and doom anger at any player, coach or manager or team owner, who happens to make themselves a target for the day. I actually think some posters thrive on that behavior. I tend to look at the standings and see we are just 3 1/2 games behind at this point and management is trying to add pieces. I look forward to Shields start tonite. If he can sart out his Sox tenure with a win that will be a plus and might add a spark. There is plenty of baseball left this season. Look at KC with a six game losing streak itself. No one is going to run away with this division

I see Shields start tomorrow to be critical in that if he can deliver a win it might jumpstart these guys. I can see a trade for Jay Bruce being possible but offense hasn't been the worse problem we have had

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 02:53 AM) How does Cooper keep his job? The pitching has been atrocious, I feel your pain and frustration. how many free runners divthet allow. I figured in the last couple games against the Mets that we won They gave up twenty free passes. Tonight us just another meltdown. Free runners, bad pitches and bad plays

Taylor hitting .200 and k's mucho a lot and Albers grooves it to him

Shuck has no power and is hitting less than . 125

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 02:05 AM) But at least we've held the leading hitter in baseball without a hit!!! Dreaded third time through the line-up KO's Latos. Now who's the fifth starter to replace Latos, since Gonzalez has to be our 4th starter with Rodon out (for now)? Rodon is out for only one start

There are no words for this. Jennings is no Match for Harper. Three wslks given up by Latos scored

Latos us bound and determined to lose this game. Robin us taking him out

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 01:34 AM) Gonna have to score 10 to win today. Latos does not want to cooperate

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 01:17 AM) Who's the blonde? (my audio is off) Zack Dukes wife to

Abreu and Frazier hit and we can roll with anyone

Keep walking people Latos and we will be toast again

Frustrating offense already. Now a guy batting. 130 has to show Frazier and Lawrie how to take bad pitches

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 09:02 PM) Though I will say that I would expect with Gonzalez at the back of the pen, that Purke goes back to Charlotte for another position player (Sanchez is my guess) soon. That makes sense and if they keep Purke up that doesn't make sense. I would guess Sanchez for his glove but he struggled with the big club so far

You can't live in the past. What is happening this season and what happened each season for the last 11 plus years can't be compared apples to apples. That is just depressing and basically giving up. We have four teams bunched up in the Central and four months left to play. No one has pulled away or shown signs of doing so. We have just as good a chance of winning this division as any other team. We can do it!

Lawrie

The former Expos need to be beat

If Shields can win that Wednesday start it could put a charge into this team

Let's win on Tuesday and start to climb to the top

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 08:18 PM) Beckham was pretty damn good his first year. Yes and that was the year he played out of position and did a great job at 3b

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 08:09 PM) I believe he was referring to your consistent jumbling and misspelling of words, so although you took it the wrong way, I don't believe the point of your post helped your cause any either. Do I ask for forgiveness or sumthin?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 08:04 PM) Coats is a good reminder to take AAA stats in perspective. I am not sure when the last time we have had a minor league player brought up that has made a quick impact.

When Coats decides to strike out he doesn't believe in wasting any time LOL

QUOTE (soxfan85 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 07:47 PM) Can I have some of the drugs you are on? It's called being a fan and supporting the team. If you don't have it I can't help you
