QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 10:46 PM) Lol how is it unacceptable? He technically has another QS because of the error that led to the 4th run. Rodon gave up 2 bombs yesterday, yet lost 2-1. Is that unacceptable? Please. I don't know how to spell it out but a 2-Run HR and followed by a solo shot in the same inning does not equal two scattered solo shots. You put your team down 3-0 hole and we know how this offense is.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Aug 18, 2015 -> 10:44 PM) Since the 1st inning Danks has pitched pretty well. He settled in but giving up 2 bombs is unacceptable.

Can't wait for next year... I think...

They have two competent CFs that could let him take a few days off.

See this is Danks greg. He is throwing absolutely meat right now.

Geo or Flowers?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 11:51 PM) Would be nice to see Danks hit their leadoff hitter tomorrow just to set a tone. Actually Rodon was so much in command he probably could have hit a guy tonight to get it out of the way. A benchclearing brawl would be OK for this team. Suspensions won't matter. Danks may be due for a bad outing anyway if he gets ejected after hitting the leadoff hitter. No. Let Samardzija do it if anyone.

Tyler Flowers ruined the night. He left 5 guys on base himself... Let that sink in for a minute.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 11:33 PM) I'm one of those posters. I admit when I was wrong unlike some of those who have destroyed Danks on this board. Danks has had a good run but he will regress, he always does. It's not his fault per se, he just hasn't been the same since his injury.

Sanchez will bat next inning.

Well well well how do the SOX get back in this game?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 11:15 PM) His stuff is good tonight, they're just attacking him earlier in the count. A start like tonight is more impressive to me than his start at Wrigley last month where he had horrible command but got lucky. 6+ DP

Seriously, TFlo sucks. He has had 3 opportunities for RBIs so far.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 09:52 PM) Trayce looks so dangerous at the plate His 1HR 1RBI strikes fear into opposing pitchers...

I can't even get mad about the solo jack; he challenged him and got rocked. Lesson learned.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 09:30 PM) The bottom of this lineup really kills us It's just Flowers. I've seen him up with men on and he just utterly fails.

And once Sale starts not acting like a brat when things go his way, he'll be even better. He beats himself and overthrows which probably led to a lot of continuation hits and those costly HRs.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Aug 17, 2015 -> 09:14 AM) Really? You honestly think a manager can make a 12 win difference. Come on. You just got gregg'ed!

I don't think anyone doubts the cubs have improved vastly as a team. I just think there are teams in the NL that are way better than them.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 09:48 PM) I think most teams would rather face half of those guys than Sale. Sale was dealing before Bogarets hit him in Boston.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 10:09 PM) I would have just cut Gordon. You want to piss Hawk off?

I hope they just sit LaRoche and have Shuck and Thompson do DH duties. Rotate Avi Cabrera Eaton Shuck and Thompson... s***tt Have Thompson lead off against lefties. DH Eaton

Don't listen to stupid ignorant meathead trolls. It's bad for your health.

48 million... wow just wow

Roberston is such a f***ing clown.
