QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 6, 2018 -> 09:27 AM) True, he looks better than fine He's 4-26 with 11 K's. You can try to talk yourself into him looking "better than fine" due to how many BARRELS he's had or whatever, but he hasn't looked "better than fine."

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 11:51 PM) Personally I don't think anybody but maybe one guy is worried about Moncada on here. Just an emotional game thread, folks. Big deal. He looks fine. I wouldn't have him lead off, but that's just me. He's not a problem. The pen is disgracefully bad. That's why I insist we are still tanking. Had plenty of time in offseason to address it. Sox didn't want to. Took a flier on Soria. Big deal. Soria is who he is. He'll be OK some nights; and get torched others. Will be very unreliable. Big deal. We are still in tank mode. One more season. I wouldn't necessarily say that Moncada "looks fine."

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 08:10 PM) who would you bat leadoff? and honestly...I've had no problem at all with Avi batting 2nd at all. Sanchez for now

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:29 PM) A 23 year old Cuban playing in 35 degrees and snow. Not surprising it wasn’t going to be a stellar day for him. Well I hope all of the playoff games from 2020-2027 are played in domes

0-6 with 4 K’s. That’s really terrible. At this rate I just hope he hits .250

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:15 PM) Why would he bat righty? Because like I just said, Detroit SHOULD bring a lefty in since he sucks ass as a righty. Follow now?

With how awful Moncada is batting righty, I’d put a lefty in.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:04 PM) Another top 5 pick lol. I’ll take it I’d wager almost anything they’re not picking in the top 5 in 2019

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:04 PM) He's just not a shortstop What is he?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:40 PM) Giolito has had some awful luck to start this year. Second game he's gonna pitch tomorrow and will be cold as hell. They don’t play tomorrow

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:36 PM) Leury messed up mentally. It happens when it's 20 degrees out. Thanks, MLB for letting us play today. You wouldn’t have sarcastically thanked the MLB 10 minutes ago. Garcia didn’t run up on that like an a**hole because it’s cold outside. He did it because he made a mental mistake

QUOTE (GermanSoxFan @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:34 PM) What have Kopech and Anderson done that would make them the "opposite" of fantastic people? Are you kidding me Leury? Stories from people who were at Sox Fest, stories from people who have known Kopech for awhile. Again it really doesn’t matter whether they’re good people or not. Be good players and don’t commit any crimes.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:25 PM) He and Giolito by all accounts are just fantastic people. And while the opposite can be said for Kopech and Anderson, I quite frankly don’t give a s*** as long as they produce on the field and don’t break any laws off of it

QUOTE (whtsoxfan @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 06:06 PM) What's the attendance numbers? 33k

Anderson and Davidson each have 2 walks

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 05:32 PM) No he’s not Maybe I should have clarified. He is terrible at baseball. He can’t catch and he can’t hit. Is he not terrible at something else?

Sanchez Anderson Anreu Davidson Garcia Moncada Castillo Delmonico (literally anyone but) Engel

Engel is terrible

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 05:11 PM) Yes they are. But they should have the tarp on the field ASAP if they want any chance of playing the next two days. Aren’t they off tomorrow?

Go back and watch Davidson’s single from earlier. If you didn’t know it was him, you’d think it was Konerko. The swing was identical

What the f*** is a Warwick Saupold

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 05:02 PM) What if Matt Davidson is a good hitter now? Yeah, if he, Anderson and Avi pan out, this isn’t just a championship contender in 2 years, they’re a juggernaut for the next 5.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 04:28 PM) Lol they were chanting "these umps suck...these umps suck..." No, they were chanting “Detroit sucks”

Are these umpires f***ing blind?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 04:23 PM) It's too cold for baseball evidenced by all that snow. Hope nobody pulls a hammy or rips an achilles. Those things happen in warm weather, too. You do know that right?
