  1. With the lack of pitching on this club it's hard to believe they're over .500.
  2. Even if the SOX get shut out again tomorrow, their average runs per game won't be affected.
  3. Well, maybe the SOX can hit the pen. Glad to see Wojie depart, but he did pitch a game we can only wish our starters were able to do.
  4. I believe Mancini distinguished himself with 2 dingers and 3 RBI.
  5. I think the SOX just want to get out of the heat.
  6. Cashner is an acceptable #5 pitcher. However, with Porcello the SOX already had one.
  7. The deadline is approaching. No time to wait for a decent game.
  8. SOX definitely cooled off since last night. Not easy to do when the temperature is near 100 degrees.
  9. 3rd hard hit ball by Devers.
  10. Cashner was one run away from a quality start. Mancini pretty much ruined the day for him. However, he did pitch a lot better than overpriced Porcello.
  11. Yup, use the FB as a waste pitch and hope the curve doesn't hang.
  12. I blame the O's starter and first reliever for that.
  13. Also, baseball provides more cliches than any other sport.
  14. Means and Mancini deserve to be on a better team. Their talents are completely wasted with the O's.
  15. The great thing about baseball is there is no clock. It only takes one inning.
  16. I'd be surprised if DD hasn't been shopping Beni around.
  17. Hopefully, before the deadline.
  18. Well, there's the slight chance that some GM of a non-contending team may, as someone here already mentioned, value Beni, believing a change of scenery might prove beneficial.
  19. Naw, I'm only here for shits and grins.
  20. I also doubt any NL team would be interested in JD.
  21. A package of Beni and JD might garner a decent starter. However, JD's opt out clause may cause some AL teams to hesitate. He might be attractive as a rental for a contending team, but what contending team is going to give up a decent starter?
  22. DD should trade him immediately after his next 3-hit game.
  23. The SOX are not going to get a 'top shelf' pitcher for Beni alone. He'd have to be packaged with someone else and cash. Every game Beni plays his value decreases.
  24. Every at bat decreases the chance that JD will opt out.
  25. Hard to shop 'top shelf' when the SOX farm system looks like GRAPES OF WRATH.
