fathom Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 02:07 AM) I'm sold on him for 2017. I still don't like the idea of the long-term deal (I know many aren't suggesting that). No rush at all. I also think he would love to stay if they decide during next year to extend him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 09:03 PM) Big hit for Anderson's confidence there...scuffling recently. Garcia up to .336 First pitch Avi saw that AB was a fastball inside, I know he fouled it straight back but his hands were very quick. I don't remember him ever doing that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Andrew Miller actually gave up lead against LAD. .500 if they lose tonight. Gave up four runs, whoa. Gary SANCHEZ homer #11. Judge at .344. Aiyo! Martes with very strong start against Rangers. Edited June 15, 2017 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Astros remind me of 2005 WSox and 2016 Cubs. Everything coming up roses for them. Martes was garbage in AAA and then does well in the majors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thad Bosley Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The whole Sox Math and prize shelf seems so beneath Steve Stone. He's been around too long to have to play into such an amateurish bit like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Haha he is so awful. Not much more to see with him this year.

Probably want to give some of his starts to the young guys I don't disagree, I just don't think any contending teams will want him. Like you said, he's awful, and not cheap. It probably depends on whether Hahn can trade Q or Shields, or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Omar Minaya warming. Sox want to deal Holland and Shields first, obviously. Walk to Schoop was ludicrous. Tentativeness...just like Quintana, nibbling and getting away from what worked. Had him 0-2, then it was quickly 4-2. He tells you what he's thinking by how he pitches. Too careful with Schoop.
