Timmy and Eloy never adjusted in their at-bats -- completely susceptible to sliders away because they're flying open. Tim should know better, as he's ALWAYS been a better hitter when he goes to right-center. Eloy's locked in when he's driving the ball between the alleys, too. 

Robert is the only one of the 3 who saw what was happening and shortened up, despite pulling the ball most of the year. He went to right on the slider.

He has really grown this year.

Would have never guessed Robert would look to have a better hit tool than Eloy.  He’s really impressive

It is amazing that we fired Ricky because of how the team finished last year, and the belief that he couldn't get us over the top, they bring Tony in from the grave because of his history and Hall of Fame self, yet this team has all of the same weaknesses, and the same stumble down the stretch. 

One guy has had as much playoff success as anyone and one had zero.  

They may wimper out of he playoffs in three but I wouldn't think it is because the manager is unaware of how to prepare for the playoffs.

It is maddening that two LHH were on the bench today who should have been given last evening off seeing as how Cobb seemed to struggle v LHH

Yet, the results are what they are.

Feel sorry for Lopez.

He found his niche in the bullpen and TLR showing once again he can"t leave well enough alone,  puts him back into a position of historical failure.

Looks like CWS is going to try to backing into the post-season. Others have tried that with some devastating consequences. 

If CWS does make it to the post season they will be excused early because ownership / management couldn't or wouldn't fortify this team with vetted difference makers.

The time was now.

They failed miserably.

In case you missed it, we had 3 starting pitchers out at once.  We still have one starting pitcher out.  SOMEONE has to start these games.  Kopech, Crochet, and Stiever aren't options.  So who are you advocating for as the 5th starter right now?  Jimmy Lambert?

Then again, this is the guy that wagged his finger at us to tell us that Cleveland was going to pass the Sox in September, so I guess I shouldn't be suprised by this content.
