Why do the Sox always swing at the first pitch in an at-bat? It's so frustrating.

Rodon looks pretty solid thus far.

of course.

Why is Rollins hitting 2nd again? Why is Avi back in the lineup against a right hander?

It's even more impressive knowing how much better these stats would be if Danks wasn't included.

How is SS2K5 always online exactly when the Sox win?

I was at that game. I was there too. We were waiting outside the gates for just about 2 hours, so I'm sure there were thousands of people that didn't want to stand out there for that long, so they just left. Even when they let us in, they "upgraded" us to seats in the shade when it was like 30 degrees out in the sun lol, so naturally we were freezing. We ended up sitting in the sunny part in the outfield, but the whole experience was a clown show. I still had a good time though

If you need 12 pitchers you can still get by if you promote Leury Garcia, who has OF/IF capability. Saladino and him can backup all spots on the diamond besides catching. What year is it? 2008?

Markakis might be an option as well. He has no pop, but he'd be a solid #2 hitter and the Braves would most likely eat a portion of his contract if the Sox gave them a prospect.

I hope the Cubs sign him long term, as it would be great to see them have another albatross contract along with Lester and Heyward.

I have a bad feeling about this series. Hopefully they prove me wrong.

While the Sox don't have good attendance, there are a few reasons why they've drawn so few people so far. 1. Danks has pitched twice at home, and people won't spend their hard earned money to watch him. 2. A game was rained out. 3. The game before that was terrible weather, and the upper deck was closed and many people left as a result. 4. Day games during the week never draw many people.

I hate Jake Arrieta.

He can't be worse than Avi/Sands, so I'm all for this.

I'd demote Avi and Sands and bring up Sanchez and Coats to replace them.

I give Danks A LOT of s***, but he did his job. The offense didn't. Avi needs to be sent down. He looks worse than he ever has in a Sox uniform.

Well this is the worst loss of the year IMO.

Come on Jackson!!!! One time here.

Lawries gonna hit a bomb here.

This offense is complete garbage.

Danks was really lucky to get out of that.

Danks is toast. No doubt about it.

That was pathetic.
