Aoki is so lucky this series. He has been horrible all year too

I-L-L

What an at bat by Conor

Surkamp has been good last hand full of outings.

As a former college player, I was an outfielder (righty), I would of much rathered of faced a righty than a lefty. I honestly don't get it because with lefties at least for me, they have natural run on their fastball and a curve down and in to me is just deadly. But when facing a righty, I could read the fastball cutting or coming back in to me, and much easier to pick up a curve or slider and lay off. It just baffles me.

Wilkins has been beyond awful in his call up.

Eaton is a monster.

I just missed Sale on Intentional Talk.....anybody got a video on it?

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but has anyone ever wondered how many kids AP has? He had a son die last year, and reportedly has beaten 2 different sons with 2 different women. So by that count thats 3 different women he has had children with. Clearly this guy is not a family guy.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 10:27 PM) Nothing like a "closer" that gets rocked by lefties. He should be a 7th or 8th inning guy next year, at best. He really didn't get rocked. Moustakas hit a bloop double, it was a good pitch on the inside half that he just muscled. Aoki was just fair down 3rd base line. Average.

Matt Ater @ater2004 · 46m @elidotcash U ready for ur visit to an actual BASKETBALL school this weekend? #illinination can't wait!

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 06:24 PM) Well, today was a good day for us. We gained a game on.... Houston, Texas, Minnesota, Boston, Arizona. Sox still have the 9th pick, are 11 GB of the #1 pick, are 5.5 GB of the #5 pick, and are still 2.5 games ahead of the Reds for a protected pick. Just letting everyone know, I saw an article the other day, and it said that the top 3 in the draft are far superior than everyone else. They said 4 thru 15 are really up for grabs at this point.

Jeez, Wilkins is useless.

Let's sweep em

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 02:53 AM) This team makes me tear my hair out. This awful season gets even worse with 4 straight meaningless wins, and beating the Twins makes it even worse. This team just continues to kick us in the nuts. After today's 2 meaningless wins..... Sox lost games on....every single damn team in baseball. But below are the teams we lost a full 1 and 1/2 games on.... Houston, Colorado, Minnesota, Boston, Padres The Sox still have the 9th pick, they are 12 GB of the #1 pick, are 5.5 GB of the #5 pick, and are 2.5 games ahead of the Reds for a protected pick. Those wins though are part of the future, I don't mind that at all.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 13, 2014 -> 09:43 PM) Baez and alcantara both with nine homers.....soler's isn't playing very much....seem to be overly cautious with him I believe he has been injured every year he has been in the minors. Mainly hamstring issues, so they give him a day off every 5th day.

QUOTE (chisoxfan310 @ Sep 13, 2014 -> 10:01 PM) Step 1: acquire left handed bat to play left Step 2: move Tank to DH/backup 1B and corner OF Step 3: profit Exactly. If he could hit 260/310/420, I would be happy. He's got 21 HRs and 58 RBIs in not everyday at bats.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 13, 2014 -> 09:22 PM) That he has. Wonder if they keep him as a 2nd lefty (Hoping we acquire a LH SU man) or let him go back to starting. I don't think they have him go back to starting. Even in AAA, it seemed like the 3rd time around he would get roughed up a bit.

Surkamp been pitching well lately.

We can still finish above 500!

Avi absolutely killed that. 4-3 now

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2014 -> 05:12 PM) So hi from the Cubs at Pirates. Will Baez strike out 4 tonight? Will I feel the wind from his swing? Only time will tell. There's 1.

If anyone hasn't seen AP's mug shot, he's smiling in it....

I've been thinking, if the rumored player that we were suppose to get in Pedro Alvarez was/is true, I have a feeling we could get him for very cheap. He has not played at all lately with the Pirates during the most important time of the year, how would you guys feel about getting him for relatively cheap? What would you give up?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 12, 2014 -> 12:50 PM) So do you think he created that himself? A Kentucky writer back in June said that Illinois was the leader for Bragg, thought that could change.
