I am glad that I was wrong about the Sox needing 6 runs to win. I forgot they were playing the Rays. Nice job by Porcello after an inauspicious start. He is earning his pay now.
-
I hope the offense can get going on Moore. At least 6 runs will be needed to win this one, I suspect.
-
I'll defer to Jacko on this.

I am of the opinion that this tear did not happen while shagging balls in BP the other night. I suspect that the injury was gradual and as such may have been present when he was brought on. I am not an expert, however. I have just suffered through meniscus pain for years and then had surgery. Rehab for me took over 4 months. But my meniscus looked like an inverted bottle cap when scope photos were taken. Mine was worse, I guess. Still, 3 weeks sound very optimistic to me. 6 weeks? I don't know about that either. This sucks. Doc, what can you add?

Lovely. Both of our big BP acquisitions are on the DL and won't help this team this year.
-
Brentz is here and Chris Merrero is playing solid ball with pop. A AAAA type, but probably a serviceable sub for a short stint.
-
Yup. This deficiency has been largely overlooked because of his problems tipping and of course the injury to his knee. If he is healthy and can only offer two quality pitches they had better be special ones. Neither is special at this time. E-Rod, regardless of his seeming success last year, remains a work in process.
-
And the Sox still have a good farm system.
-
Kimmi did you see his post game interview? He seems very reserved and quiet. That's okay. The Sox will corrupt him!!! -
I doubt that without a major acquisition that the Thunder return to the playoffs soon. In fact, it is speculated that the team will fall off enough to promote moving them to another city. I would have preferred to have KD remain on OKC too. Good for the team and the city, and possibly the league. I can understand wanting to try something new after 9 years of banging your head against the wall. Ultimately, the Celts did not get him ( this year ) so I don't care. f*** him and all the ass-clown Warriors fans. Fair weather blow hards. I bet not a one of them has heard of Al Attles, Nate Thurmond and players of that era.

Chicago is in the Central Time Zone. It's still June out there.
-
Plus since he would be going from the National to the American League you can add another .5 to his ERA. Not great. But, if either of Hellickson or Moore could be had at reasonable cost I would do it. All they have to do is pitch 5-6 innings of decent ball and that would constitute an upward trend for our 4 and 5 slots. I say get them both! Then we will have 3 former Rays in our rotation. How unique!
-
Ah, the exuberance of youth.
-
I'm still waiting for Brentz to turn into a pumkin. If it never happens, I'm good with it.
-
"Be strong Danial. Be Strong."

It was obvious at 60 pitches that O'Sullivan had nothing left. Farrell being Farrell there cost the Sox the lead.
-
O'Sullivan should have been out of this inning without a run scored. Now he is making too many pitches.
-
Really dumb and sloppy play by the Sox has cost runs. Xander getting picked off at third and Mookie's "throw" to second. Ugh. Talk about playing down to your opponent.
-
Go Sox!!!!!!!
-
Good stuff Harmony. I hope that you receive a response. You know, as the outstanding group of superfans that Talksox comprises, we should send hundreds of e-mails to the Sox FO telling them what we think. Like lobbyists only we pay with our cable bills. We should work on this!
-
I don't understand why it has to be known if Buch was offered or not. The Mariners wanted Miley otherwise they would not have accepted the deal.
-
Good comp. Westbrook is the new Penny. Although better.
-
Evan Turner got 4/70. Hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha!!!! he had a nice year, finally. $17 mil a year for a role playing 6-7 man?
-
I'll answer that. NO. Paul is a pussy while the Big O was somewhat the Jacky Robinson of the NBA and one of the best shooting guards of all time and a great defensive player. No one f***ed with Oscar Robinson. I saw him play many times while he was in Milwaukee. I would say that he was one of the four best guards I ever saw play. Paul is not even close. It's laughable to compare them but have fun with it.
