  1. My choices are to either watch White Sox baseball or actually do work. How are the White Sox making this such a difficult choice??
  2. Is the implication that "scalping the Indians" did sound right? 🤨
  3. Sox hitters are 1st in xWOBA, and only 21st in wOBA. (.295 vs .383) Sox pitchers are 12th in xWOBA and 6th in wOBA. (.328 vs .291) We've gotten a little lucky on the pitching side, but its been surprisingly serviceable. Meanwhile we have been tremendously unlucky on offense. Still good enough to win all three series. Very promising start.
  4. Wait.... 3B are allowed to make that catch without hobbling off the field like they pulled 3 different muscles?? 😳
  5. See, this shit is why we can't have actual conversations about women announcers. We've gone from a completely legitimate "this particular woman sucks at announcing" to "separate but also unequal" in like 4 posts.
  6. He was our 5th pitcher for a couple months. The guy can play anywhere!
  7. Ah, what a question! How does one value a person? Kantian Deontology would argue that no value could ever be put on a human, but more Utilitarian efforts exist. FEMA, for example, estimates a life is worth $7.5 million, but makes no allowance for different people being worth more than any other. And of course, in a purely economic vacuum, even a minor player like Leury Garcia probably contributes more to the 10+ billion dollars that the MLB pulls in than his salary implies. Truly a questions for the ages. And I'll tell my boss the same thing if he asks how much I'm worth.
  8. Honestly, isn't that the dream? Make bank, be completely secure in your job, and then be able to mail it in every day? Shit, I might go buy a Garcia jersey right now. The People's Utility Player!
  9. It should be illegal to post clips of that inning without the Benny Hill theme.
  10. Dallas looks to have better control but his lack of a strikeout pitch is still a major issue
  11. Just like we all predicted. The former cy young winning soft tossing lefty is getting hammered ugh.
  12. Luis getting hard contact 2/3 ABs, including a HR, off of a pitcher with this particular arsenal is SUPER exciting
  13. While true, there were two balls that are home runs on any game after May 1st. Without the cold and the wind, VV would have given up 6 runs today.
  14. If VV starts every 5 days Chicago Weather will rack up enough DRS to win a gold glove by May
