BaconOnAStick Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Too many dollar$ make$ that impossible. Nah, this is the last year of Danks contract. There's no "well what about next year??" anymore; the Sox can drop him out of the rotation no problem. They're gonna pay him anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know the fans despise him with the exception of a couple of us. So Hahn should please the fans then and turn him into Matt Thornton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black_Jack29 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Danks has several games like this every year. He also has several quality starts per year. That's why he's a #5. Yet, many folks here seem to think that he's supposed to pitch like Sale just because it's Opening Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 According to Hawk Jose Ramirez can just hit after his double in the 1st. Just saw his average was .219 last year.. <_ . garcia must be the greatest hitter out there> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's quite a gulf between "Chris Sale" and "5 runs in 2 innings".. to be fair Danks has settled down. The problem this offense is going to score more than 5 runs very rarely this year. The Sox are gonna have to win games by holding teams to low scores, not by scoring a lot themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did you actually expect Danks to out-pitch Salazar today? If not, why is this outcome such as disappointment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
