  1. eh, rather struggle now than in two months. teams run hot and cold; it's not a terrible time to get a little cold.
  2. It's like when Jason kept saying he was still concerned with the Twins while they were 97 games under 500, with the worst bullpen in baseball and no starting pitching. The Indians have given up. Honestly, even though it's nice to have wrapped things up this early part of me is bummed because none of the games really matter which takes away some excitement. This series was a lot of fun because there was intensity to them, but there won't be many series with that intensity. When Grandal gets back the lineup gets way more complete and even more dangerous. The key is getting hot near the end of the season, not now. Go through your cold stretch now if you want to; every team has them.
  3. Kimbrel was more expensive than Bryant. The problem is Hahn and company have a hard on for big name relievers and think it's wise to invest heavily there.
  4. The division is won. It's not really a question. I get that White SOx fans are irrationally negative due to the past, but this take is one of the most comical by far. The White Sox are 19 games over 500 while the next best in the division is 2 games under. No one else in the division has a positive run differential, the closest is -34. The AL Central is full of bad teams. The White Sox are not anywhere near a bad team. They are just getting healthy too, so this take and concern is just terrible.
  5. nah, you always get a woody when the Sox lose games but "could have come back." You seem to really enjoy those losses. It's odd, no doubt.
  6. Weird take, they've clawed back and made for an exciting finish despite having some bad luck with RISP. They don't appear to be coasting to me, they're just not getting the big hit and the bullpen gets canned everyday.
  7. Before yesterday, Hernandez had like a 785 OPS with really good defense. So yes, up until yesterday he had been damn good even if he's been scuffling a bit of late.
  8. you're celebration of White Sox losses is always weird as shit. No reason to be upset about stranding 100 runners and the bullpen giving up runs every single game lol.
  9. Cesar Hernandez has been great, but holy cow was today one of the worst games a player could ever play.
  10. Good thing we didn't challenge a clear safe call.
  11. Sox outplayed the Yankees tonight. Wasn't that close but sox just didn't capitalize. It happens. They play this game 10 times sox win 7+.
  12. We are much better. Our offense is better and our SP is much better.
  13. @fathomcouldn't we have asked to have those guys taken off second and third in tims at bat?
  14. Luis hits the ball so hard and now Vaughn gets to win it. This is crazy
  15. I absolutely blame the FO for buying high on a guy while selling low on two of their own guys. Kimbrel was worth a bag of balls this past off season
  16. I'm feeling good about this team, not bad, with how this offense has come back and started destroying the ball. Losses happen, I take away a lot of positives. Left some guys on base tonight but that's just bad sequencing luck. Offense is back and only will get better with yaz.
  17. Crochet and kopech and.. dare I say it, bummer are back and ready to dominate. Who knew that you can find bullpen help for pretty cheap contract wise.
  18. The kimbrel is great hendriks is trash stans are a weird group.
  19. Can we get some more threads about how unhittable our bullpen is now?
  20. Mariano was amazing and did it forever, but over a 7ish year sample kimbrel was the best to ever do it.
  21. Prime kimbrel was not capable of a bad 30 game stretch. He was the best reliever I've ever seen in my life. The end of his red Sox tenure was always an adventure. He was still good but he wasn't that that guy anymore. The walks spiked and he became more vulnerable. I hope he has the most dominant post season ever, and he's clearly still capable of having completely dominant stretches but it's not a shoe in anymore like it was from 2010-2017. Now he's at risk of bad stretches like other human pitchers.
