Weird game. Always nice to visit the park though - and good turnout. Still about 5 moments in that game that made me want to break something.

Looked like a good crowd, Bailey. And yes, virtually every Sox game, there are multiple moments where I feel like breaking things. I refrain...;)

Is there anybody else we can replace Alexei with? Watching him has become a horror show. -1.0 WAR! Was nice to hear Hawk blast the defense last night. They certainly deserved it.

The plan to replace Alexei is Tim Anderson. At AA right now.

I swear he's on drugs, I mean, there is no explanation in my puny little brain how to explain the night and day difference from last year to this year, both in the field and at the plate. I know the wide throw last night on the botched DP ball...but the throw in from Melky that hit Torii Hunter, Alexi just pulled his glove away? WTF was he thinking?

At that point, I would've yanked him. Move Gordon over to short, bring Gillaspie in at 3rd, lefty on the mound or not. To hell with embarassment, to hell with his salary, sit his arse for a couple games and let him figure it out.

This has been driving me crazy for a while now, what is Soto doing when he throws the ball back to the pitcher and wipes his hand on the ground? Every time.

Alexei and Eaton to the bench today. To late to send the message. Both guys make a ton of bad baseball decisions. This Eaton contract may end up being the demise of Hahn.

No, Eaton started, drilled a dinger to right first AB, then singled next time up. Alexi? I swear there's something wrong with him.

Yeah heard Eaton wrong on the radio. Love the homer and single, but man he has made so many bad baseball plays this year. Hard to be excited about a guy when basic fundamentals are missed all of the time.

Ready to turn my attention to NBA summer league at this point. Wake me up at the trade deadline.

I'm contemplating watching the Cubbies/Cards game tonight. Maybe after a few more beers, I'll change my mind and turn on some tunes...

Didn't catch any of the game, but filtering through some recap. Sounds like this one's on Robin. What's new?

Robin/Shark share the blame. Jeff threw it by Miggy...plain and simple. Victor Martinez saw that, knew what Jeff was up to...and nailed it to the right center gap. The Tiggers announcer was absolutely correct...Shmardzija quit pitching and started throwing...

Peter Christensen @draftcheat
When your 3-hole hitter is Melky Cabrera and he's asked to lay down a bunt but can't, your team should be disbanded. #FreeChrisSale


Collin Whitchurch ‏@cowhitchurch
Cards broadcast even busted them out. "Third-place hitter in a 1-1 game and he's bunting."


Robin has to go.

Bailey, last night's game, although a W, was almost depressing to watch. Kept running through my head...wonder who/what we'll get when we trade Sale...

The way he is playing now/his contract situation, I don't think they would ever get the proper return on Sale. He is that good. But could you get enough for him to fill a lot of the holes and make the team that much better.
