This is hilarious and tragic / horrific all at once.

This was an obvious mistake, almost everybody could see that..you guys better hope Kenny scares this guy into early retirement with money on the table like Laroche.

Yea, good call...does he have a kid we can use to leverage retirement ?

He ain't walking away from what 40+ million guaranteed.

In 11 outs, James Shields has allowed more runs in Chicago this year than any member of the Cubs' rotation has. #whitesox

Give up a grand slam here. Set a record for badness.

James Shields has allowed as many runs in his last five innings as Clayton Kershaw has allowed in his last 117

JORR says that Shields gave the Sox a great chance to win tonight. couldn't get the W for himself but kept his team in it from the start until the Sox could scratch in a run...

or did Shields give up those 6 runs in 2 innings knowing the bats would play tonight?

Pitcher W/L is anything but straightforward.

What is with these baseball players giving their kids shitty names often with unusual spellings?

This result was highly forseeable and should cost Hahn his job.

He had done a great job of living through and eliminating shit contracts. The promised land was there and then boom, take on another shit contract (although it has been ameliorated)

I'm pretty sure Shields didn't get a win or a loss last night.

I thought Shields deserved the W.

So he didn't pitch badly, because he would have gotten a L if he did. Understood.

Holy shit. DL the guy and have him come back in 3 month. Players don't this well in batting practice.

Whatever pro scout said go get this guy should be fired, not to mention whatever exec approved it (Williams or Hahn).

Even a casual fan could tell all those innings have taken their toll and the guy is done.

A 27M albatross - wow.

I don't like it.

There has to be an injury in here somewhere. He wasn't that bad with SD until his last start with them. This is historically bad. Could he have decided his career is over and he is throwing games until he gets his dfa?

Dude, wtf?

Do they seriously have no one in the minors that is better than their last two #5 starters?

No way Robin should give this guy another start.
