May mis-read that ball... First step was in. Ball ended up hitting the warning track. Tell me again how his sole purpose for being here is defense. They teach you in High school that on fly balls your first step is always back.

All ya had to do was hit it to the right side. Get jammed. Whatever. Gosh.

Joseeee Jose Jose Jose...JOSEEEE JOOssseee

Avi now leading the league in average and on base percentage

Turned the game off in the 7th only to see that the Sox came back and won! Nice! Good to see Avi finally turning it around We can only hope he continues. Love our pitching.

May needs to be sent down asap. He does not belong on a major league team, rebuilding or otherwise.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 05:40 PM) this is not news, and nothing we didnt expect, but this is a really, really bad offensive team. Just think, the guys out of our lineup now are Frazier, Melky, and Soto. Next year, all of those guys probably won't be on the team(possibly even Melky and Frazier by August). Our boppers will be Abreu (who is about as good as Carlos Sanchez right now offensively) Davidson and Avi (if they continue to do what they are doing). You might throw Moncada in there if he does what is expected of him. Otherwise, that's it! So, we better get used to this.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 04:37 PM) Hopefully Jacob May gets his first knock today. Go to New York feeling ok. I swear every time I see him or Asche up they either strike out or ground out to 2nd or short.

That foul ball homerun by Jose reminded me of that one Austin Jackson foul ball that he hit at Target field last year that would have been a grand slam. It went right between the foul pole and that wall...like not even 10 inches of space.

Well this sucks. Basically on the other end of the stick compared to our game against Cleveland the other day. Q just has to put this game behind him and look forward to the next one.

QUOTE (Moncada @ Apr 15, 2017 -> 12:29 PM) Davidson is on fire right now and most if not all of his damage has been against right handed pitchers. So why the f*** is he only allowed to play against lefties. He was a top prospect at one point, I would think the sox brass actually would want to see if they found some gold with him. It's just stupid to not give him the most playing time right now. Play him at DH, 1B, and 3B. Kid should be playing a ton so they can gauge whether or not he can be a part of the future or not. I am sure there is a reason...but yeah doesn't make much sense to sit the guy the day after he hits what ended up being the game winning homerun...unless he is sick or something. Probably doesn't do well for a guy's confidence.

Soo, Avi a pretty good candidate for player of the week I'd say.

Matt effing Davidson. His homeruns have been extra exciting because I'm pretty sure all of them so far have given us leads in the games.

Right now, Todd is basically getting paid to play defense, hit the occasional home run, and pop up. Oh and run in to bad luck apparently. I guess you could throw mentor in there as well.

That's not a change hawk, it's a slider

Fantastic AB from Willy here. Keep fighting them off.

Would be a nice time for Abreus first bomb

Don't help him out

Love it. Work the count More Tim! Make the pitchers pitch to you!

Would like to see these rooks start working the count a little more

That umpire got rocked

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 07:55 PM) Tarp is on the field and they'll be in a delay. No other info. Eyeballing the radar, I don't think it's going to be a long delay. I don't think so either

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 07:39 PM) Game not starting on time. I see by the radar it is raining in Minneapolis...do you know if they have determined a start time yet? Is it officially delayed?

Would be nice to see the Sox pounce early on another starter who had a rough first game, much like they did with Tomlin last night. I fir one would like to see Kevin Smith catching and Willy Garcia getting the start in LF (or CF, whatever).

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 14, 2017 -> 12:36 PM) W. Garcia LF L. Garcia CF A. Garcia RF Bring back Freddy!
