QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 10:02 PM) Cubs fan literally just said: we put up 6 in 5 innings on your ace! Arrieta and Lester are true aces, your ace SUCKS! Dear God... Jokes on the Cubs fans because Shark isn't our ace

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 11:04 PM) And give credit where it is due...Johnny Danks has looked ....ugh it hurts to say...pretty good lately. His last 7 starts were better than just about anything Samardz has done all year, overall. In the back of my mind, I see KW and Hahn telling each other "With this much struggling this year, Samardzija will be way easier to sign for 6-7 years in the off season!!" At one point I was think Eric Johnson or Montas would be up as starters in 2016 (maybe Fullmer) and Danks would be gone. But, I wouldn't be sad to see Smard go and Danks stay and one of our rookies take a spot in the rotation.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 09:59 PM) This clown has given up more HRs than anyone else in the staff now, too. AND sporting that 4.77 ERA. We should be sending many floral arrangements to Samard's house, for not taking the contract before the season started. You sure can't see him as a #2 or #3 guy with an ERA of 4 3/4

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) Jesus christ, I restart my computer and the Sox take the lead on a HR, computer restarts and Coghlan homers again. I have lost confidence in Jeff. The guy sems way to streaky. EWe get a stretch of real good games and then stretches he blows like a beached whale

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 10:52 PM) Is Jeff going to step up or give the lead back? That is the $64K question. I am not brimming with confidence

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 08:43 PM) Next time we get a DH, we might want to find a hitter actually accustomed to and comfortable sitting on the bench or simply junk it for the rotating/resting 4-5 guys idea... we tried that once and it failed. I am sure they are reluctant to do it again. I think Laroche who is a gold glove fielder might be better playing the field. Maybe?!

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 08:26 PM) Nothing like a 30 pitch first inning Are these pitchers really ready for the first inning/start of the game? There is something missing here and ain't first inning runs allowed either

Ramirez

Let's get a win

Abreu

Let's role Rodon!

Flowers

Let's hope Sale can turn it around and on

I will tell you from a baseball analyst viewpoint that we can't lose three straight to KC and have a chance at anything good. 3 one-run losses. WOW! And to have Shark perform so badly again when we needed him to step up. Interesting to see what Sale does against LA. Our strength was pitching and it has deserted us

Flowers and Soto have done a marginally good job. I would blame our troubles an anemic offense earlier in the year than our catchers. It is difficult for a team to get a good hitting and good defense cathcer in one package, or so it seems. I loved AJP as our catcher and was disappointed he wasn't resigned but the team had down years when he caught too

Abreu

Head home with a victory
