Getz Billy Carlson, Mason Adams, and Boston Smith probably could have netted a legitimate starter at the deadline. That would be sparing the bullpen right now and we could trust Taylor, Newcomb, etc. Venable has made wild decisions, but the staff is held together with duct tape

Castillo is as bad of a deadline deal as I can remember

No team grabs defeat from the jaws of victory in crunch time like the White Sox

Agreed. If he gets credit for acquiring players like Vargas and Peters and the team doing better than expected this season, he should also have to eat s%*# for one of the worst trade deadlines in MLB history. And no, it’s not too early to judge those deadline trades. They haven’t done jack squat for this season, which is the exact purpose of deadline trades.

Rather have a DH on Sunday. More time for relievers to recover.

DH has a better chance at a split historically screw the bullpen lol that really might be THE end...unless you want Castillo or Acuna pitching

Holy Crap....Newcomb has imploded lately.

Getz

Who is more responsible for this tragic ending to what was earlier in the year a reason for this team and its fans to hold their heads high and feel a sense of elation that has now burnt itself into a hellish nightmare. Getz or Venable?

Yeah he’s never going to play for the big league team.

I’m not so sure. Some poster said that the Sox historically choke in September, while the Guardians actually play better when they are down and out and take the division. He got s%*# on for that post, but it doesn’t seem so crazy now…

He’s clearly blocked and will never play SS for the Sox unless Bonemer and Cholowsky are busts and in that case you have a whole other issue on your hand

Cle 9-8 Hou 8-9 Tex 7-10 Tor 6-11 Bal 6-11

but they hold it for at least one month generating interest lol

As much as I like Billy Carlson's potential, I don't know why he wasn't moved for a legit starter.

I mean, what's the difference? Either your starter gives up the runs, or the bullpen that is incredibly overworked gives up the runs. They don't have any legit starters. Starting pitchers should be able to give you 5-6 innings. I would love to see how many pitches their starters have thrown compared to everyone else. It has to be bottom 3.

This is where even a bad Castillo should have been able to give you 6 innings, 4 runs. Instead, he’s just wasting a roster spot.

Gifted 6 runs but yeah should won this one. Pitching fucked us

Benintendi was $75 million not $85 Grandal contract #2

Fedde, Martin, and Burke can all go 7 easy if you're cool with being down a 5 spot

Do the White Sox even have a starting pitcher? Can any of them even throw more than 60 pitches? They have an entire team of long relievers. This pitching staff is absolutely pathetic.

No it's a refund.

Sunk cost fallacy

Half those runs were scored off tigers errors. The offense went got 1 hit from the 4th inning on and went 1-2-3 in the 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th inning with 6ks in those ABs. The offense rolled over. Not excusing the pitching staff but the offense disappeared after the 3rd inning
