The Sox are what their record says they are. We know. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even with the long-term injuries to Robert and Jimenez last year, they were one of the healthiest teams in baseball. Fully healthy? Yeah probably not. In terms of not losing key players for long stretches? I think they can get a little more lucky in that regard in the 2H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whitesoxwin 10 Posted June 20 Looking for the White Sox to start a winning streak tonight. Getting Anderson back is huge, hopefully the bats stay hot and Lynn pitches a solid game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScooterMcGuire 1,471 Posted June 20 I'm really not feeling good about this series. I hope I'm wrong but this just feels like it's gonna be another series loss or sweep to another good team. Having TA back will be nice and is sorely needed, but we have much bigger issues than that, sadly. Who's getting injured in this series? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fathom 11,216 Posted June 20 Just put Yoan on the IL. They’re nuts if they think he will be fine in 24-48 hours. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balta1701 5,270 Posted June 20 What in the world do they think will change between now and the start of the game tonight? Come on someone after in charge and make a bloody decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JPR 36 Posted June 20 (edited) This is universal in all of pro sports today, players have to learn the difference between pain and injury. Mike Singletary could fight through pain and illnesss, so could Jordan. Take the hair bun who tweaks his knee and is like I’m done let me throw a ball at the grass to show my frustration but pitches with zero ill effects days later. Only to go off, using his pitching arm, to abuse products in the dugout (like the genius that he is) after he blows the game yesterday. Players are too soft, just cuz you experience pain doesn’t mean you shut it down. You fight through it like Jordan did. Either the Sox training staff is one of the worst in the past 30 years or players are too soft nowadays. What’s next, I got a hang nail and can’t pitch. Let me just brush my hair in the dugout and put it in a man bun please? Time for these players to play like men and quit wincing at the smallest form of pain. Or fire the training staff, one or the other has to happen to get anywhere. Edited June 20 by JPR 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Texsox 1,717 Posted June 20 I'm not excited about $5.60 a gallon gas but it's great to be back in Illinois and easy, legal, wagering. I'm thinking the over for today. Lynn could really get lit up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is something we aren't being told, because none of this adds up on the surface. Maybe they are trying to rush someone to Chicago, but don't know if they can get them here in time? Can't think of what else it could be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
