QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:19 PM) Why even play Alexei against Masterson? You would think after have 50+ at bats against someone you would learn how he pitches you and know his stuff

What a horrible horrible swing and at bat.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:17 PM) I mean, if this is him with less movement than his first start, can he maintain this level of success for a while? Probably not every time he doesn't have as good as stuff as the first time. But he has also faced 2 poor hitting teams.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:15 PM) I guess a valid question is...is this a bad start for him? Certainly he will have worse starts where he gives up a lot of earned runs and hits but he doesn't have his good stuff this outing but is still getting outs and not letting up runs. More of a scrappy good out.

Carroll hasn't had as much movement on his pitches this time out. He is still battling and doing a good job out there.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:07 PM) Is the wind blowing in or something? Thought Dunn crushed that. Meanwhile, the offense continues to struggle with RISP. I think they said it was blowing out to right field

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:06 PM) Abreu's had bad swings against Masterson all year. Must be a cuban thing

swinging at the slider away yet again

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:55 PM) Just saw this, thanks futuresox:) FutureSox.com ‏@FutureSox 2h OF Courtney Hawkins will miss one more game tonight, to finish 3 gm league suspension related to his ejection last Tuesday night. Yeah, was about to say that. I didn't know he was suspended until earlier

QUOTE (Baron @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:47 PM) Right because the Indians have been playing great baseball when this series started Do you know our history with the Indians? Especially in Cleveland

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:45 PM) It's beginning to feel a lot like last year, minus Abreu. Yeah, Tigers and Indians were the last two teams I would want to face at the end of the month/beginning of the month

Oh man this defense.......

QUOTE (Baron @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:40 PM) Why the f*** is Flowers running Hit and Run call by the great Robin Ventura

I hate Robin

I feel bad for Carroll who can't get any good defense behind him

Why can't we f***ing catch the ball!?!?! Jesus

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:30 PM) Looking like last night all over with soft doubles. I didn't get to see the game last night but the way Hawk and Stone were talking, all they had were soft hits

Giambi needs to retire

What a weak double.

Viciedo is 0-15 now against Masterson, wow

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 3, 2014 -> 05:11 PM) Who should be there? Danks? Semien? Those guys have been raking. Well Semien didn't do too bad in the 1 spot the couple times he has been up there, and he works the count much better. I think I would of went with Semien-Ramirez just to see how it went

I know someone said it before by why are 2 of the worst hitters batting 1 and 2?

There is a guy I want us to draft in the later rounds: Matt Tellor out of Southeast Missouri State. He is a senior 1B. Currently batting .380, 14 Home Runs, 59 RBI's, 15 doubles, .659 Slugging %, .435 OBP He is currently top 5 in the nation in both Home Runs and RBI's Oh and he is a switch hitter. I go to the same school as him and have seen him play a lot. The ball jumps off his bat from both sides of the plate.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 3, 2014 -> 01:36 PM) Nate Jones has been placed on the 60-day DL to make room. I think Jones coming back this season is looking grim. Wow, what the hell is wrong with him? Is Sierra going to replace Eaton on the roster now?

QUOTE (flavum @ May 3, 2014 -> 01:04 PM) De Aza LF Beckham 2B Abreu 1B Dunn DH Viciedo RF Ramirez SS Danks CF Flowers C Semien 3B Bourn CF Swisher 1B Brantley LF Santana C Chisenhall 3B Cabrera SS Giambi DH Murphy RF Ramirez 2B Carroll will be facing all lefties today.. That is so strange
