QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 02:33 PM) It's too late now. Just let LaRoche keep playing. What will it hurt? See if he can either dip below .200 and maybe retire or actually get hot. He should be fined for not going to left field in crucial situations. His hitting philosophy is ridiculous. How the Sox scouts thought that guy could help the team is beyond me. Waste.Of.Money. Well they probably based it on the fact that he was pretty damn good for the previous years. It just didn't work out, like Dunn.

QUOTE (harkness @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:16 AM) I guess I'll take your word for it because no "feed" I saw was conclusive. It's ok man... breath. This team blows and is going nowhere. I rather them just tank for a better draft pick at this point.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:07 AM) Inexcusable 5-9 in this lineup. Legitimately 5 straight number 9 hitters Shuck and Sanchez did good tonight. Ramirez sucks as does Flowers and Saladino but it is what it is. Oh yeah Avi blows.

QUOTE (harkness @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:12 AM) You must have a different camera at home... none of the ones I saw could you tell if the guy's foot was hitting the base. I had the Angels feed. They showed his foot hit the bag before LaRoche's. He was out. I'm sorry you don't like the results but it is what it is.

LaRoche was f***ing out. Ventura should not go out there to argue a blatantly moot point. No off day tomorrow. One more with the Angels. I want the Sox to bleed out, they need talent. Tank the s*** out of this season now!

Why didn't he just bunt it down 3rd?

Well 2016 will be a mirror image of 2015 with Ventura at the helm.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 11:31 PM) Poor Tyler is so slow. Well maybe he should hammer a ball to the gap once in a while or bet yet in the f***ing seats. He's such an oaf, drives me f***ing nuts.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 11:27 PM) Ventura has made some crazy decisions this series. I hope he has just given up and this isn't him trying to actually win. I want him to, he should have been gone but since he has ties to the organization...

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 11:12 PM) Let's start by getting a 3b that can hit with some authority I would take one that can simply hit.

The f***ing 8 hitter. Atleast give it up to Trout or something.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 11:02 PM) Put Shark out there for the 6th but if someone gets on leading off pull him. His magic at can't last much longer . He's been pretty lucky tonight.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 10:45 PM) It's like the hitters didn't know what Weaver would throw tonight Sit on one pitch from Weaver... and crush the s*** out of it.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 19, 2015 -> 10:43 PM) If the contact play was on then to my eyes Sanchez scores . Anyone see it differently ? He chickened out. I rather him get thrown out at home there.

Two RBI opportunities and two hacking at the first pitch. Seriously... the execution is just not there.

I agree. Flowers sucks with the bat but it is what it is. Guys like LaRoche, Abreu and Melky were suppose to bring runs home. Abreu seems to be the most competent at it. That spells a recipe for disaster.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:59 PM) His outing was good. He gave up four runs and pitched well. Does anybody agree with Greg that Danks had a good outing, because he did? What are you guys expecting? Just because the offense can't score 4 runs. I consider 3-4 runs in eight innings a good outing from a pitcher pretty much. A great outing would be 2 runs, maybe even some nights 3. I'm a little surprised nobody has forcefully jumped on the Danks bandwagon to support my positions. It grows a little old that a lot of people think he's trash when he's been OK to good this year overall. p.s. Just cause I like Danks doesn't mean I'm a troll. Fans have their favorite players for whatever reason. I could go through it again but I think everybody knows why I like Danks. A lot of posters are out there in support BTW. El Rockin always is praising guys. I like Danks; so shoot me. Troll.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:47 PM) Mediocre outing at best. Angels don't exactly have a good offense at the moment and those were some meatballs early. Are you going to see Sale pitch on Friday?

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:47 PM) Mediocre outing at best. Angels don't exactly have a good offense at the moment and those were some meatballs early. If Danks didn't give up the two bombs early in the first f***ing inning, his outing was good.

QUOTE (woods of ypres @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:40 PM) Professional troll. Gahhhh you're right. Such f***ing bait and I took it like a noob.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:27 PM) LOL. Did not do well at all? Didn't he pitch into the 8th? He's the least of this team's problems. This team blows and he's been a pleasant surprise. So giving up 5 runs but going deep is good? You're officially bonkers greg.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:18 PM) I'm sick of seeing Jose getting a steady diet of inside s***. That's what having no protection does. Nobody is afraid of putting him on for Melky and Avi. Exactly. I would love to see what Jose number's when he has legit protection behind him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:16 PM) How many ground outs is that tonight? They are pitching well.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 11:10 PM) Not to be a broken record, but another good performance by Danks. Do any of you use mlb.com?? How in the f*** can they run the same f***ing commercials over and over every half inning? It literally is driving me crazy hearing the accent of that race driver; then the Sox highlight reel with Hawk's calls. How can mlb.com advertisers think it's an effective strategy making you listen to the same f***ing commercial up to 20 times a night??? No greg, Danks pitched like s***. He settled down but did not do well at all.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 10:52 PM) Alexei has had some good years here but I really hope they decline his option He's gone.
