    I wonder what they feed them down on the farm?
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Surprisingly, that article didn't mention the real 'elephant in the room,' the starting pitching, which more than any other factor makes the SOX damn lucky to be where they are.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    We won't finish the remaining 13 games against the Rays until after the trade deadline. Should be interesting what the standings will look like at that time.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Sometimes, as I've said many times before, you have to tip your cap to the opposition's pitching. If we're gonna praise Pivetta's performance tonight, and rightly so, we've gotta recognize the other team's pitching performance.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    He threw a wild pitch; it happens. I'm not worried about Barnes. Now starting pitching? That I'm worried about. That's the elephant in the room.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Before the Tampa series I posted that I would be very happy if the SOX went 3-3 against the Rays and Yankems. Now I would be ecstatic.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    There were a lot of 'killers' in this game.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    If he was automatic, wouldn't that make him a cyborg?
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    And he leads the team in stolen bases.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Great start wasted. Obviously, wasn't the SOX night. Rays are a well-balanced team and I certainly hope they don't obtain Scherzer.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Before I forget. Pivetta's stuff tonight can be described by a word I've very seldom used for SOX starters. NASTY!
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    More than likely. Base running is something else the SOX aren't dazzling at.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Now that the Rays got a hit, the last time the SOX had a combined no-hitter was a game started by Babe Ruth. He walked the first batter and then got ejected. A pitcher named Shore came in and finished the no-hitter. This info courtesy of the Rays' announcer.

    Mausoleums don't usually have chairs.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Nice play, VAZ. Chair and all.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    C'mon, MAX. You don't have to defend Cora all the time. He's not god; at least I don't think he is. Is there like a Cora Cult out there?
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Great point. I'm a firm believer that excessive weight room usage causes more injuries.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    True, it actually means 'babying.'
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    My fault; I told Dugo to cut back on his weight room visits.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Maybe modern players are.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    No. Coddling is treating the players as if they're made of porcelain.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Maybe with your pitcher throwing a no-no, a manager might want to put a better defenseman at 1st base? Looks like Cora forgot Marwin's on the team.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    If only!
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Coddling Cora.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    WTF, Cora.
