Renteria get your moneys worth. This is leadership here.

Sorry to burst your bubble guys, but Q isn't bringing in any talent at the deadline with the way he's pitching this first half.

Only thing Jose has working for him is that outside curve. I believe this will be the first sweep of the year for the Sox against them? Not bad for what we thought they would be honestly.

Turning out to be a typical Q game. Very unlucky, weak contact from Sox offense. Only thing different, Q doesn't look very dominating up there. Unless things turn a corner, everything is going Baltimore's way. Really quite annoying honestly. Kind of like that feeling where you're on a road with a lot of lights, and everyone you get to turns yellow and you're too far away to go through them. And everyone around you is driving like an idiot. That's what this game feels like lol

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:15 PM) Covey is making about $3000 for every day he's on the roster... I still dont feel bad for him lol

QUOTE (fathom @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:06 PM) He's one of the worst starters I've ever seen get multiple starts for the Sox. I feel bad for him Danks? And I dont feel bad for him. Dude has guaranteed a major league roster spot, and he's making millions. Shouldn't be playing in the majors. Time to end the experiment. Results have been proven to be the same over and over again.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 6, 2017 -> 07:59 PM) This should really be it for him. It's not doing anyone any good. Yeah, he has no future with the Sox, and it would probably be easier to dump him if Shields and Rodon werent hurt. On thr other hand, way to come back and strike out Davis after being 2-0. Credit where credit is due I suppose. Then that dumbass balk.

Every time Covey pitches, he reminds me that this is a rebuilding team lol.

Renters better have a talk with them tonight.

Jose needs to be thinking one thing.

They just look lost at the plate. Soft hits. How does this team score 8 runs one game and 1 run the next, seems like it happens quite often.

I wouldn't be against an Anderson bunt, or I wouldn't have before he looked at a fastball right don't the freaking middle.

They better do something here damnit. Don't get my hopes up and crush them lol.

First rule of baseball...catch the ball. Get in front of it. Stop being lazy. They teach you that in little league.

Why was Asche playing in on Davis?

Nice to come home from work to see the boys split it. 15-12. Tied for first in the division. Now on to Baltimore. Definitely a tougher team to face, and with Covey and Pelfrey pitching, not too overly optimistic, but definitely optimistic. Baltimore has lost 2 in a row, so there's that. Will be interesting to see how the Sox play against a "good" team outside of the division.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ May 3, 2017 -> 09:30 PM) Do we have any pitchers who can DH instead of Assche or May? Looking forward to that Delmonico call up.

QUOTE (daggins @ May 3, 2017 -> 09:28 PM) If you want to see what regression looks like, it's getting totally shut down by Nate Karns. He's actually pitching pretty well. Locating his pitches well. You can tell the Sox are disappointed at the plate after they hit it realizing its going to be an out...seems like they have a gameplan at the plate but it isnt working. I was kind of expecting the Sox to have better luck second time through the order, but hasn't happened yet unfortunately.

2nd time through the order...they are seeing Pelfrey better.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 3, 2017 -> 08:54 PM) I never really realized what a high quality defensive 2B looked like before Yolmer came up. He's pretty f'n steady with the glove. Well...the Sox haven't really had horrible 2b. Lawrie wasn't bad, Beckham was actually a very good defender, going back, Iguchi was solid too. We have had a lot of high quality defensive 2b, particularly Beckham.

Does anybody know who Hawk is talking about during picks to click when he says all of those names that picked the click with him. Are they like his friends or something?

It feels like the Sox have the upper edge to win every game that Covey does not pitch...that is a nice feeling!!!

Coveys is lucky to just have given that up

Coveys leaving everything center cut in the middle, batting practice pitches, offspeed pitches with zero deception, how they have not scored yet is beyond me.

This just "feels" like it's going to be a bad game. I feel like the Sox offense is about to take a tumble...also great defense by Davidson
