Feeky Magee Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 01:41 PM) yep, can't play with fire there. Danks has pitched well enough to keep team in this game. Interesting definition of pitching well. I'd say more like "got insanely lucky". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Should have never challenged him there. He's the one guy in the lineup who doesn't look like he belongs on the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 How he did it, HELL f***ING YES. He threw a meatball to f***ing Mike Trout. He throws meatballs to every batter he faces. Hardly a worthwhile complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 02:41 PM) The team currently has so many players that shouldn't be in the majors. Truly amazing their record is what it is. It's entirely due to the pitching. How many games has the offense bailed out the pitching, one/two? Danks is frustrating to watch and I'll be excited to have him leave next season, but today atleast, he has done all we could expect. Now if he gives up another 3 runs he'll join the blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few arguments for keeping him in the rotation (and an argument made pre-game by Robin Ventura) is that so far this year his results have been worse than they probably should have been. So it's hard to be that excited when he throws a start with woeful peripherals and gets lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
