QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 12:34 PM) Any details? His pick to click was for all the police in Baltimore who were put in a tough situation to watch businesses burn, etc.....went on to mention how disturbing it was to watch TV, seemingly trying to get some dialogue going with Stone, and it was just silence as Stone obviously wanted nothing to do with it.

Ha! Stoney wants nothing to do with this conversation.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 01:01 PM) How long is it going to take until someone speaks out for the Sox. I think this is a situation where we can really benefit from having Rick Hahn (JD) as GM but please, someone start the conversation. The O's have handled this terribly regardless of the situation. I wholly believe that the Sox are likely raising hell behind closed doors. Unfortunately, it's going to take MLB to make a decision public. The Sox would look REAALLLYY insensitive to seemingly put baseball above the concerns of a pretty major riot.

Forfeiture should absolutely be on the table. The Sox are likely to get absolutely screwed if these games have to be made-up on off days. The Sox are in a tricky situation...it would lead to horrible PR if the Sox complained about this in the press but, as a baseball fan, they have every right to be livid about this.

Is RV awake over there?

It shouldn't, but seeing Addison Russel go 0-5 with 3k's helps soften the Rodon blow a bit. If he'd had a big game I would've been extra glad that I don't live in Chicago the next few days.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:23 PM) Just so you know, the bench does not call pitches. Is that why Tyler looks over at the bench every time before throwing down his signs?

QUOTE (ptatc @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:26 PM) They cannot start him and then have his innings limitin August. I agreed with the decision to put him in the pen before tonight. I did not foresee our totes awesome manager putting him in a pressure situation for his major league debut in a tight game. They literally threw the game to watch Rodon pitch. If that was the goal, they should've just started him. If the goal was to acclimate him to the bigs, he shouldn't have been inserted into a pressure situation like he was tonight. It's management 101, baseball or not...you put your people in positions to succeed.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:17 PM) He was a friday night pitcher in college, and is the #3 pick overall. I dont believe confidence will be his problem. Confidence in this organization. You don't think he's going to look back on his performance, as all athletes do, and not wonder why in the hell he was put in when he was? Pissed he's coming out of the pen?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 09:15 PM) I feel like we just threw this game with no care just so Rodon could pitch. And if that was the plan, why not give him a start? Now you've wasted a QS from Noesi, shattered Rodon's confidence, and lost a game to a division foe. I just don't know what to think of this org.

They're just sitting dead red. This is some of the worst coaching for a debut I've ever seen.

Can we have a f***ing slider, please? Change? Jesus.

I barely know anything about Carlos but I do recall reading that his fb is what he has the most trouble locating. So why in the f*** is the dugout or Tyler calling nothing but fb's when he's struggling with the zone?

Bad situation to bring him in and nerves were obviously at play. I'm still excited to see him...he threw a couple of nice sliders

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 08:40 PM) Predictions everyone? I'll say walk to load the bases and then K strikeout to end the inning Pumped to see this kid finally on the bump in a regular season game

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 03:39 PM) Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 1m1 minute ago Robin Ventura: "You think about (challenging) anyway if you get a maybe, yeah you think about doing it. I didn’t even get a maybe." What-****ing-ever. Who cares whose fault it was the most. It's just a rotten loss. I'm bummed, but mostly I'm still puzzled how the ump missed that. He was right on top of it. Leadership 101, pass the buck. Errr...

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 17, 2015 -> 03:32 PM) Is that a player publicly calling out his manager within an hour of the game ending? That's quite a look into the locker room mentality of this team, imo. Alexei has been around long enough to know what he was doing in that interview.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 08:35 PM) Working perfect for me tonight, and I'm watching on my PS4 in California. Thanks, bud. Hopefully it'll be fixed tomorrow.

Sorry if this is redundant but I really don't want to read the whole game thread....is anyone else having issues with MLB.tv? I've been on the phone with those jackasses for 90 minutes and their only solution was a factory restore on my PS4 even though it's not working on my laptop or iphone either.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 04:31 PM) but it did go by and johnson wasnt there to get it. And hit Alexei in the head with the throw? Alexei shouldn't have been over there.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 04:23 PM) Not to mention he loves... LOVES Ozzie. Said he wouldn't name names, but there was a series in Tampa when the same Sox players was drilled 3 times and the Sox never retaliated. Hawk said he went into the manager's office and asked if the Sox were going to do anything about it. The manager said he was "filing it".....Hawk and Steve then joked that that file must've gotten lost because no retaliation ever came.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 04:21 PM) Could only be him or Guillen. I'm guessing Manuel. Yeah, you're right....Ray came about in 1998, same year Jerry was hired.

So who is Hawk talking about? Jerry Manuel?

This home plate umpire is brutal.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 6, 2015 -> 03:48 PM) Only 3 hits very disappointing. Apparently 5 hits is amazing.
