James Shields...

Neat.

Someone we can trade at the deadline, when we're selling. Re-exchange him for a downgrade in prospects that we gave up just now.

Fuck this

We NEED to find a way to take the rubber match in this series today.

If we can't stop this torpedo'ing spiral we're on, and take a series at home versus a team that has lost 9 of 10. I don't think it's ever stopping.

Rodon, please...

KC owns us and were prolly licking their chops at fixing their ills in this series.

I would have to agree. Just hoping we can find a way. However, Yordano has been pretty bad... Would love to get to him early, and perhaps take the pressure off of Rodon a bit.

The prob with KC is you have to get on them early and by ALOT due to their nearly unhittable pen and their gawd awful propensity in being able to come back on us.

I'm still hurting from blowing that 7 run lead during last series. It's like KC is in our pitchers' heads. Unreal.

Rodon struggling horribly with his command early... SHOCKING

I can already tell how this one is going to go.

FINALLY...

This team shows some balls. Down 7-0, I was cursing the season over myself.

Turned it back on at 7-2. Great comeback, real ballsy. They weren't going to be denied, no matter how long they played. Too many walks, too many errors... but god dammit, I'll take it.

Hopefully NOW, we have something to build off of. LET'S WIN A DAMN SERIES. FOR CHRISSAKE.

Give it up for the pen, totally saving another Shields shitshow. 7 innings 2 runs to let the offense catch up.

Danks was better than this clown... lol.

One more outing like that, and I don't know man... Do we just cut our losses? This can't go on. I'm sure they'll give him a ton of chances, but I mean... we can't just have an automatic loss in our rotation. Hell, DFA this jag off and call back up Latos. haha

He's signed for 3 more yrs ha. They will either put him on the dl or I'd take him as a reliever. 1 inning of his best might change his career

we had this same problem with dunn. paid him too much money so he had to play and hurt the team. same problem with peavy, same problem with floyd, same problem with danks, same problem with the roach, possibly the same with frazier and now the same yet again with shields. they are such really bad judges of ability. i'd really love to know who in the organization scouted shields .... RECENTLY and thought he still had it.

this is why this team will need to be sold or they will never seriously compete again. a HORRID organization!

Wow ... Putnam loads the bases with no outs in bottom of 9th and Zach Duke just bailed his ass out!

Wow. That was a scary 8th, but that ball was not gone.

Can we close this out in the 9th for three straight in Boston, and get back to .500? We're through the heart of their order. I still have a weird feeling though...

An insurance run, or two, would be nice with Robertson gong out there. Always drama with that guy ... makes me a friggen nervous wreck EVERY save opp.

Yeah. Hopefully Abreu comes through with a big hit.
