YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Considering that Sale didn't have anything close to his good stuff, he did a hell of a job. Plus he lowered his ERA from 3.34 to 3.20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he lowered his ERA from 3.34 to 3.20. Wish he could have gotten a W for the Cy race, too. But I'll take the 14 point drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 02:59 AM) The Sox have had their chances against this bum. But when you have s***ty players in the line up you expect s***ty results. This game is a good lesson for our front office if they think they can avoid an overhaul of the lineup. They cannot. Guys whose production must be upgraded or they must be replaced: Melky, Flowers, Avi, Eaton, Saladino, Sanchez, LaRoche. Only acceptable at bats might be Thompson, Lexi (counting on bounceback year), maybe Avi, maybe Soto as backup. QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 27, 2015 -> 03:00 AM) 119 pitches thru 6. Robin, if you put him back out for the 7th, you are an idiot. It's not up to Robin; it's up to Sale. He gets mad when they yank him. ... Wow Robin had the stones to yank him (updated).

Nate is not great (I'll give him a break like I do Danks, though, in guttily coming back from injury). I ALWAYS blame the Pitcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkness99 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 The thing is if this team could have made a little winning streak they could have had a chance. tonight is a reminder of how much of a failure the coaching staff is. A game they really needed against a bad team. And this is what they produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nights they are DOA offensively coupled with the nights they play like clowns (defense, baserunning) is what has made them a bad bad baseball team.

I think he would have made them a little better, but not enough to get them in the playoffs. This organization is doomed with the current FO/coaching staff in place.
