  3. Eloy is the primary DH next year. Vaughn is already a much better LF, and will continue to improve out there. They'll sign/trade for a RF. If the Sox run out an Eloy-Robert-Vaughn OF with any regularity next season (especially just to get Sheets in the DH spot), they're going to get exactly what they deserve. Which is dogshit OF defense and a likely injury to Eloy. Eloy needs to play some LF to keep him happy and so he can pretend in NL ballparks. But if hes the everyday LF next season, they Sox are fucking up.

  4. Leury is a garbage time monster beating up on shitty teams. He will absolutely be exposed in the playoffs if he's put in the lineup every day. 2021 splits Teams over .500: .188/.274/.238 Teams under .500: .301/.364/.441 High Leverage: .191/.273/.213 Med Leverage: .187/.271/.333 Low Leverage: .320/.385/.426

  5. TLA has a clearly stated philosophy about managing April-August to prepare for Sept-Oct. Everyone plays a lot and are put into game situations so that they are ready when called upon when it counts the most. This is not something new for him. Fans "manage" batter to batter, inning to inning, game to game.

  6. TLR has been awful this series. His management of the bullpen has been atrocious. Where was Bummer against Polanco? Burr in the 8 th ina one run game? Not pinch hitting for Collins against the lefty with the bases loaded. Not bringing in Hendricks in game situation in extras yesterday. Pitching Lopez and Foster in the second game. This is a Rentería like performance.

  8. Quck Pitch on MLBN is an hour-long show with highlights from every game, using the tv and radio announcers calls of all the key plays. Runs on a loop overnight until 9am. This morning, on highlights of the 2nd game, as Gavin Sheets is striking out in the 5th inning, one of the Twins announcers said: "That will be the lasting image of Gavin Sheets against Jose Berrios"

  10. I think I looked up our records since Robert, Madrigal, and Grandal got injured and it's kind of crazy. Since Robert injury: 43-25 Since Madrigal injury: 21-13 Since Grandal injury: 9-2 TLR still makes some questionable in-game decisions, but you have to give him a ton of credit for the next-man up mentality of this team and winning despite all these injuries.

  16. cant wait for more TLR apologists to post but a source within the club house says everyone loves drunk uncle Tony; even if that is the case make him the bench coach. Nothing has changed hes still a dog shit in game manager and the game has passed him by.

  20. What I don't understand is the selective outrage. Why aren't people outraged they have to wear a seat belt driving their own car? Why are they not outraged people next to them in a crowded bar cannot smoke? Why are they outraged you are expected to wear pants in public? It's a serious question. What is the line? Is it where you favorite politicians or media figures want to draw it?

  21. The government can ASK all they want, and that is still not an impingement of free speech. You also understand that you have no right to damage other people and call it freedom of speech, right? You want to talk about offensive, let's talk about your Soxtalk act.

  26. Ways you can tell things are going great: 1) Fans in the crowd were electric for a game in July against an opponent the Sox are 18 games ahead of in the standings while the Sox are comfortably in first. 2) This:

  27. Bumped. Those 75 rbi’s aren’t clutch, are they? One of the other threads was that Abreu according to FG was expected to have the biggest drop off in OPS in all of MLB… .823 seems…not too bad.

  38. Going into October without getting help at 2B AND RF would be negligent. We have a special starting staff and a real chance of going all the way. Billy and Goodwin have been stepping up. Same for Burger and Sheets. But you don’t shy away from acquiring a real corner OF because of them.

  41. From Fegan, pretty honest, scary recounting of his rehab. Sounds like having eloy was a big help to keeping him sane: "“First, I spent a month without walking,” Robert said. “Then I started walking little steps. Then when I started running, I was afraid because I couldn’t run 100 percent and I was afraid of, man, I am going to lose one of my best tools. I was concerned in that moment about it. But then my body started reacting in a good way and I started feeling much better.”" https://theathletic.com/2716617/2021/07/19/luis-robert-cleared-for-rehab-assignment-as-white-sox-near-return-to-full-strength/

  42. So let’s see, paragraph 1 and 2…”why would you get mad about the variants, you’re fine from them. Paragraph 3…”the delta variant is already poking holes in the double vaccinated what happens when there’s a more prevalent one”.

  44. Blows my mind that some of our fans still believe: 1. Players will never get hurt 2. There's no such thing as a bench player. Sheets has the potential to believe a LH power bat who can be a passable backup at 1B and corner OF, plus an option at DH and pinch hit. Saying he has no future here is pretty hyperbolic. If he can hit, he'll have a role

  45. You may not, but I do. These people are willing kill thousands of Americans because they are the most selfish people on the face of the earth. You dont get to be a part of the people "making it political" and then at the same time "blame politics." At a certain point I wish that the pro-vaccine would make it political. If you dont get vaccinated you lose privileges. No White Sox games, no airplanes, no Disneyworld without a vaccine. Its time to stop playing nice with people who simply dont care about the rest of humanity. If you are okay with killing people, you dont deserve to get all the good things that the rest of us sacrificed for. There is no freedom issue here. Being a jackass isnt a protected right. You cant smoke weed in the majority of states, where is your "FREEDOM BABY", you cant hire a prostitute in most states "FREEDOM BABY" You cant actually believe a word you wrote, because it doesnt even make sense. The govt isnt forcing people to get vaccinated "FREEDOM BABY" they are merely trying to convince people that getting one is smart, like not drinking and driving. But hey "FREEDOM BABY" lets get rid of all the drunk driving laws because well damnit, so what if I kill 4 people, "MOTHER FUCKING FREEDOM TO DRIVE DRUNK BITCHES US MOTHER FUCKING AAAA." I cant live my life because some selfish bad people would rather kill their fellow Americans than do the right thing. That isnt "FREEDOM BABY", that is "YOURE AN IDIOT BABY". And I am getting angry, I lost an entire year of doing things in my life and it may happen again because selfish horrible people think that wearing a mask and getting a shot somehow infringes on their "FREEDOM BABY." Its garbage and if you are actually the "good" person you think you are, you would see why its stupid. I mean maybe I drive better drunk, how can we really know what will happen if a drink and drive? Maybe if I dont drink Ill get in an accident... 50 percent of the US is a clown show. People around the globe are begging for vaccines and people in the US are refusing them because they are listening to people who I wouldnt hire to answer phones for me. And that is how I really feel.

  48. I'm not sure what people expect from our 3rd/4th string catcher. He handles the pitching staff well according to reports which is all we need from him in the meantime.
