Trap avoided

I'll gladly take 3/4. Detroit's overall bad, but they were on a bit of a streak coming into this series. Definitely a big series win to get back on track after the Indians series was looking bleak. Really tough stretch coming up with 10 of the next 13 coming against the Jue Blays, Revil Days and Asstros. Gonna be important to come out of that stretch in good shape.

It is easy for an anonymous poster to question LaRussa's character, but it makes me wonder about theirs.

Tony also is 2nd in losses.

lol.

RH: “Tigers looking to split the series. We are better at every single area but one.” KW: “Yes we are, same as when we face the Twins. Salvador Perez and Trevor Bauer are the only exceptions in our division.” RH: “Tony keeps ordering outs on purpose. Bunts, failed hit and runs, batting injured batters, bashing players for home runs. Playing Leury every single game. Poor bullpen decisions, leaving gassed pitchers out there, even after I went over how best to use our staff.” KW: “He may be the worst manager we ever had, clearly the worst in baseball today.” RH: “He’s going to cost us any chance at a World Series, isn’t he?” KW: “God works in mysterious ways.”

Great thread title. You are a class act and joy to post with, ron! Sox are lucky to have you as a fan.

Please grow up. Your schtick is tired. We are all here to cheer on the Sox. But I won’t be feeding into whatever twisted need you have for attention. Enjoy your trolling good sir.

I for one am rooting for the White Sox to win this game. I had to make the game thread to remove the filth from the previous game thread starter.

65th all time in win percentage. Tied for 6th in World Series - but we should probably dock him the A's World Series due to the rampant cheating. 3rd all time in playoff appearances. And if McDowell is correct, then Tony's entire first White Sox tenure is as tainted as the Astro's recent run. I'd might have given TLR the benefit of the doubt if he actually denied the camera system instead of a weak deflection. So sure, TLR's got the second most numerical wins, built on the backs of steroids and and cameras.

The pen is fine for the most part, they just need to pitch like it. There are some electric arms out there. They just need to get through whatever is going on. The worst thing they can go is overreact to SSS and trade real talent for relievers.

Cease vs Urena. Hopefully we get a nice bounceback game from Cease. Go Sox!

That’s good though! Don’t want to get trapped in the playoffs 😜

You realize the “slap fight” article is from The Heckler. The Heckler is satire ala The Onion.

Absolutely no connection between the two but carry on 😂

Must have something against Adams. 🤔

Yas wants Cease to throw a fastball to Haase...c'mon man.

i wasnt wrong, he has done a great job since

Yermin just doesn’t hit mistakes anymore. Guy needs to bat lower or send him down

Trap game 4. The traps are set. Unsuspecting Sox players marching towards a field full of traps. Good luck fellas.

Your insistence that we all celebrate dear leader is both comical and sick. Seek help.

Actually it isn’t. Fans don’t tune in to root for the manager. With the obvious exception to this strange cadre of TLR worshipers. An aging slugger hitting his 600th is not the same as a washed up hack riding the coat tails of great talent to some post HOF career accolade.

Bob Brenly is taking a week off to reflect on his statements about Stroman and others including Aramis Ramirez who spoke out regarding Brenly's personal attacks. Steve Stone, who has a history of attacking various players and managers, including his current crusade against Yoan Moncada, better check himself before he is also asked to take a time out, either temporary or permanent. https://theathletic.com/2631373/2021/06/03/former-cub-aramis-ramirez-says-bob-brenlys-commentary-was-discriminatory-brenly-to-take-week-off-of-diamondbacks-broadcasts/ Chicago Now Article Link: https://www.chicagonow.com/cubs-den/2015/05/analyzing-bob-brenly-the-way-he-analyzes-starlin-castro/

Missed the game today, but seems his archaic bunting lead to another loss? Yes? How many games has this troglodyte cost us so far? 6? Or is it more? If only all of those past wins stacked up tall meant that TLR is a competent and capable manager here and now today in the year of 2021...

LOL. Please, continue worshiping his past accomplishment all you want. His number of career wins still doesn't change how fucking terrible he is as manager of the Chicago White Sox in 2021.

How about you pay some respect to the soon-to-be 2nd winningest manager ever?

If you want to worship at the altar of TLR's past accomplishment, be my guest. I don't give AF. Doesn't change how bad he is in 2021.

Can we complain about TLR on that congratulatory thread or is that only for his friggin fan boys?

Which is exactly why I am not giving up real talent for a guy who could suck the next day.

Accolades for past accomplishment can’t and don’t change that he is a shitty manager in 2021. But I sure hope they keep his stans warm at night.

CONGRATS Tony! Its not everyday a team has a Hall of Fame manger on their roster. We’re living in a Golden Era of White Sox baseball, appreciate it.

What is the connection between Jerk and sticks, or, perhaps more ominously, Jerks and Ticks?

Hendriks needs to get a hat that fits better. He keeps fidgeting with it for some reason.

didn't even get to 100 pitches, smh dylan

Do you mean Schwab? I didn't like their trading platform at all. When I moved off of Robinhood I moved into Fidelity, I wanted a broker that wasn't relying upon another clearinghouse (etrade, which I used to use years back uses apex). Fidelity is a pretty stable platform, but like most brokers their tech still looks like it was created in the 90s. I'm still amazed that not one of the big players hasnt found a way to develop a better UI.

Dylan Cease sucks.

At 90 pitches I'd let him go with a short hook. Maybe back him up with Crochet.

Cease curve = muy bueno

his breaking stuff is elite, my god

Tim just beating the ball into the ground lately. Seems like teams are going in on him a lot more now.

The intimation here being that Stone has a similar trend of going after non-white players in his most pointed criticisms...

He's on of those guys that hates every single manager and thinks that he could do the job better than they could.

Easily the biggest weakness on the team is Tony

Welcome to fucking Soxtalk! Can be combative.

Loved how classy he was in the postgame making it about the team’s victory when asked. Congratulations Tony!! Couldn’t imagine a better way to dedicate my 100th post!

The White Sox and Cardinals are not rivals... If anything the fan bases like each other more than any other two MLB teams. I've worn a sox cap to multiple Cards games in St Louis and I've been given more hi fives, cheers, and "fuck the cubs" than I can count.
