  1. Not really. Just responding to the post about moving Pivetta back to starting.
  2. SOX are taking a serious look at Michael Lorenzen of the Tigers. He's started 16 games and his ERA is 3.75 with a WHIP of 1.13. His remaining contract amount is a little over 4 mil, which would still keep the SOX under the luxury tax. Stay tuned. Btw, Lorenzen also has 6 years of experience as a reliever. His lifetime BP ERA is 3.63. Seems like those tires should be kicked.
  3. Pivetta took the express elevator from the outhouse to the penthouse.
  4. Since he's been with the SOX he's always been available when it was his turn. That is amazing nowadays.
  5. He's definitely the closest thing to a 'rubber arm' that the SOX have.
  6. In my life I've been DFA'd a couple times.
  7. He was DFA'd, which is a polite term for being fired.
  8. The record now belongs to Nick.
  9. Pivetta just tied the record for most strike outs by a SOX reliever at 12.
  10. Why? The SOX don't have an over abundance of pitching as it is and he's been awesome in the pen.
  11. Well, unless Bloom wants to trade prospects, the players Bloom wouldn't mind trading don't have much value.
  12. The hardest thing about baseball is hitting a round ball with a round bat. Imho, the 2nd hardest thing is not swearing at the HP chUMP after many bad calls and then getting tossed. For the most part the inept work of HP chUMPS has been an embarrassment to baseball.
  13. The Dodgers' were nice to the SOX by not re-signing both Turner and Martin.
  14. That is correct, sir. Blackburn would be a good pick-up. Think the A's would have any interest in Kike, even if the SOX ate 75% of his remaining salary?
  15. Actually, Pivetta's BP ERA is under 2 and his WHIP is under 1. He didn't do that just against the terrible A's.
  16. I like Sears much better, but he's probably untouchable.
  17. O's and Rays both lost earlier. A SOX win tonight moves them to 8 games back of 1st.
  18. Regarding MLB's top 100 prospects, the SOX have two. Mayer(SS) at #4 and Rafaela(OF) at #73.
  19. Good job by Bernardino. He's been a very pleasant surprise so far this season.
  20. The only thing that makes me a little antsy about tonight's game is it's on the west coast. For SOX fans no further explanation is required.
  21. Duran Dugo Turner Masa(DH) Duvall Casas Arroyo Wong Chang The DU B'S will patrol the OF.
  22. There's probably more people here on this game thread than will be at the game.
  23. I certainly hope that's an ACME chainsaw. ACME products worked very reliably for Wily Coyote.
  24. Personally, I'd rather the SOX trade Kike instead of Duvall. Kike provides much less to the SOX PO hunt. At least Duvall does provide a power hitting RH bat to a predominantly LH line-up. Seriously, what does Kike provide? Most here, myself included, don't even like to see his name in the line-up.
