MLB does targeting advertising - so the better question is - what are you googling? Hahah.

Yea well I'd like a 8" pecker.

No out pitch. Almost every tool in his arsenal can be fouled off until the batter sees a better pitch to drive somewhere.

Sox on a pace to hit infinity home runs.

The year he was traded he saw a big drop in his peripherals which he luckily offset with the highest strand rate of his career. If Q was a stock Hahn bought at rock bottom and sold at the top. Hahn has clear weaknesses but trading high is not one of them. It was a heist and most Sox fans knew at the time Q was entering the downside of his career, you could see it in his peripherals that year and just watching him pitch. Lost some of that command on his fastball and he didn't have a huge margin for error.

What outliers? He was remarkably consistent in walk, hit, strikeout rates, etc with the Sox, if anything with slight improvements year to year.

We won the Shields Trade: “James Shields got me to go to a spiked curveball, he threw his curveball a little differently than me, and I wanted to try his out,” Dunning said. “When I tried his, it was a lot more effective and sharp. But I wasn’t throwing it consistently until I went to a spike.” “Yasmani [Grandal] switched up the grip on my changeup. Now it’s a lot more effective. The numbers on it show that it’s getting better. Coaches like Everett Teaford, who has been helping me get carry and ride on my four-seam. Now everything is getting put together, and I feel really good about it.”

it's one thing to lose it's another to lose in the manner they were doing it. that's what I think most of us complainers were b****ing about.

I still laugh at that.

Mazara! Told you to play him

Lol its his 18th career start .

Hahn sold high for a perennial 35hr everyday player and a #3 starter. Couldn't pass that up. Quintana was due to regress with some of his outliers.

Once Mendick dumps a gallon of milk down his pants, we'll start talking

But he did. And so that isn't something you can hand wave away.

Maybe recently, but overall there's always freaking out whenever a loss happens. The shortest game threads are wins. People go nuts over every loss. I'm not picking on any one person just entertained by the whole concept. I truly think most posters here can't just sit and enjoy a game. But I guess that's just passionate fans.

Quintana is the heavy favorite IMO to be the pitching addition this offseason

Gausman must have pitched well against Padres

McCann is a UFA next year. Sox are probably not gonna bring him back. You don't pay Grandal $73 million and then pay a 2nd catcher big money.

Cordero's jersey keeps shrinking by the game....now it's down to Adult Men's Size M.

I like Moncada 2nd a lot more. He is going to work deeper into counts, and give a guy like Anderson a chance to run.

Reading this thread is amazing

Seeing the replay, that was down and in too, and he still managed to hit it 400 feet.

That's the best Nomar's hit a ball this year.

Man Edwin was running HARD 😂

You were saying? 😄

TA7 is going to will this WIN today.

Comerica is a really shitty park, change my mind.

That is pretty much only an out in Detroit and Oakland.

Not a bad start. Wish we would have had runners on base for those dingers though

If my daughter was grade school age, I'd tell Trump I will decide when she goes back to school and otherwise he can just shove it.

Finally, a day game to distract me from work.

Moncada had COVID, showed up 4 days before the season started, and he's played 15 games in the past 15 days. He looks tired and it certainly makes sense. People that were ripping the two off days early just overlooking the grind that this is for a guy who was fatigued.

Everything is obvious in retrospect. Cole Hamels was a washed out veteran pitcher who was TERRIBLE for the Rangers in 2018 and then went to the Cubs and put up a 2.4 WAR in the second half of 2018 for the Cubs. If Shields does that instead of the -2.1. They may have had a chance. Having the White Sox role the dice on the Sale/Quintana/Rodon/Shields/ David Robertson/Nate Jones pitching staff to lead them to the playoffs where anything can happen was not the dumbest move ever made. Throwing in some nobody was meaningless. It didn't work out but the failure led to the rebuild. You take chances in life and shaking your fist at the clouds after the fact really doesn't help.

Is there a division between the American guys and the Latin guys? I'm sensing so.

Huh, weird, I must be missing the quotes where they blow off what he said because he played for the Astros? 🤔

I don't know how you all feel but it might not be bad for us to have the games v cardinals canceled this weekend. It will give guys like Moncada to get healthy and for us to get maybe LOPEZ back without playing games, and maybe Madrigal gets closer to returning.

Our offense seems to be on to something. Wr have a day off tomorrow and could play 3 games against a rusty and depleted team. Give me the 3 games.

The crazy thing is the Sox are 8-3 on the road so far this season.

Colome has been great. Very nice rebound this series.

A month at least

Let's ship your dumb ass with him to the northside

We just don't do the little things well.....or the big things..

Great AB, even better result. Damn this team apparently really needed Timmy back.

Excellent assessment.

Moncada not in lineup- looked gimpy last night, hopefully nothing serious

We could put together a pretty solid 4X100 relay team.

Foster has been a stud

I kinda hated the idea of the extra innings rule at first, but it rewards teams that can execute baseball fundamentals, so I am fine with it. Looking around the league though, three outcome baseball made scoring a runner from 2nd with no outs more difficult than it should.

Robert as a rookie is going to swing and miss and strike out a ton; Anderson has batter bat skills at this point and should lead off which is why he will.
