    I'll second that.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    It could be worse. This could be an Oakland A's thread.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Is it possible Renfro is the best player in baseball who is traded the most? Is there something wrong with his personality?
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Anything would be better than the baseball repellent they're using now.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Based on how the SOX offense has looked against these last three pitchers, I'm thinking they wouldn't do so well in a slow pitch softball league.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Yup. I mentioned that last night.The west coast is not the SOX best coast.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That Moniak is a maniak.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    When the SOX stop hitting, they come to a complete stop. No California Rolls for them.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    When or if Arroyo is ever healthy again, the SOX should trade him for the 4K version of the movie MASH.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Thanks. Where would this thread be w/o you?
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Duran dropping back to earth like his chute didn't open.

    When do the SOX get to play the crap teams in MLB? Every other team has.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The Rays getting crushed in their home circus tent 20-1 in the 9th. That'll leave a mark on their team ERA. Rays=shite fan base, shite ballpark, shite state.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Based on at least 40 innings pitched so far this season, Kluber has the 5th highest ERA (6.26) in MLB. Pivetta has the 7th highest (6.17).

    Sale, Paxton and Bello are a pretty damn good 1-2-3. Houck had an excellent start last night, but let's see how he fares on his next start. Whitlock is still an unknown quantity. But, imho, those 5 give the SOX the best potential for a 5 man staff. If Kluber was just good enough to be a #5, that would free up either Whit or Houck to join the BP, but I just don't see that happening.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Whatever, Max. You have your view and I have mine. We both like the SOX, so, at least, we agree on that.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That being said, I still want Wong catching most games, mainly because he's got a much better arm than McGuire.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    A catcher provides two services to the pitcher; calling the pitch, which the pitcher can shake off if he's not happy with it and providing a target. It's not really that complicated.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    On the plus side, the SOX have yet to play the dregs in MLB, of which there are many.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I agree that Wong is the better defensive catcher, but it's not fair to blame McGuire for Kluber's failures.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I thought Martin was the set up reliever. Oh, well, I'm just 2nd guessing.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The SOX offensively appear to have delayed jet lag.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Like I posted before; even V-tek couldn't make Kluber effective. Kluber can only be effective when he has near perfect control, which is hard to accomplish consistently.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    After getting out of trouble in the 2nd by striking out Trout, Houck was dominant the next 4. Excellent job!
