Andrew Vaughn was hit by a 94 mph fastball in the wrist. There is no amount of playing both games of a doubleheader that will make your bones stronger.

Colas injury minor from what I’ve been told. Should be back this weekend hopefully. Also, we talked to Andy Barkett for Tuesday’s podcast. New minor league hitting coordinator. I think he’s already paying dividends with some of the performances this year. There seems to finally be an org wide hitting plan which is positive.

It is insanity that in 2022 there's a baseball team with an unpadded brick wall in their outfield

He's certainly going to end up with a lot more than Kelenic. ?

fuck off, ron

Like a QB leading his receiver right into the safety.

If Robert is actually hurt, you can't blame him for that. There's no way to protect yourself running into a brick wall like that.

There's that low baseball IQ we all miss!

@DirtySox and @BamaDoc are certified GOATs

Lol what are you talking about. Did the twins suddenly get good players and a pitching staff? We’ll pass them within a week or two.

Matt foster with some brass balls out there today. Great to see it

Matt fucking Foster won us this game. Never thought I'd be saying that in 2022.

Robertson was one of the few expensive relievers to sign a long-term deal and actually live up to it. Fortunately, Hendriks is looking like another one.

Glad to see Matt Foster vintage 2020 is back.

MATT F THE F STANDS FOR FUCKIN FOSTER

Nothing about the batters coming up said we needed a left handed reliever in this situation.

They just refuse to win a game comfortably at all costs

DFA Harrison and get Yolbert up here.

Piece of shit stadium

Also the speed Kelenic will hit driving to Tacoma on i5 later this month when Lewis is healthy.

Nick is the gift that keeps on giving

The Sox are one of the best in the Majors at hitting the ball hard to center field and the opposite field. But they just don't pull the ball in the air enough. The problem with that approach this year is that barrels to CF are dying due to the weather and the ball. That's a huge reason why the Sox have such good expected stats but shit actual stats. Expected stats don't care which direction the ball is hit, but pulled barrels go for hits way more often than ones to CF. It'll get better when the weather warms up, but the Sox have bigger issues since they simply don't work counts or take pitches as a team.

Suzuki did a nice job on the deke.

Fixed this post for you. You're insufferable.

Would be nice if our lineup showed this amount of patience

Thompson in his last 3 starts: 15 IP, 1 ER, 13 H, 1 BB, 12 K

This whole obsession with Rodon's starts this year is just getting to be too much....Do you think the Padres' fans followed every White Sox start by James Shields? Unless they were looking for a good laugh that is.

Posted! Sorry!

Thanks and sorry all. I had to step away awhile. Poorly played baseball was killing my soul. Think I am better. For those that like the other link format https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/04/2022 Cueto listed for Charlotte. Final tune up or.....? Thanks DirtySox for picking up my slack.

bump

Reset your troll meter to zero, you had a good run, I think it was like 100 posts in a row.

No, please, no.

maybe the Sox should consider drawing some walks then

Sox thought they'd capitalize on a hot start but every team has a Sheets in AAA.

Still don't understand why they retired this - goosebumps every time. Let's sweep this short series and take it to the other Sox.

Gotta love The Slap Factory at the bottom of the order!

You're accustomed to Texas metrics now. Everything's bigger in Texas.

I actually remembered it from YEARS ago when they used it in an ad campaign.

Engel eats the cubs alive for some reason, I don't hate it. I don't love it, but I don't hate it.

Drive 8.1 miles south.

Easy win.

I wonder how much longer Simas will spend in Kanny. He has been a pleasant surprise so far this season.

Cause it was fun for me at least to watch a masterful pitcher orchestrate an entire game. To finish what he started. It was a beautiful part of baseball, knowing you would see an elite pitcher that night try to go deep in the game: I remember driving to the game with my dad, the most important thing would be what pitching matchup we'd see that night. How bout in 05, all those complete games in the postseason. Beautiful artwork on the mound. Pitchers throughout history who could go deep in games: Just look at the Hall of Fame list to list several. The Sox's best teams throughout history have had pitchers who could and would go deep in games. For me ... it's boring to know a pitcher will go 4 to 5 2/3 innings max. And it's sad. Just me. I may be weird but I long for Bob Gibson, Fergie Jenkins, LaMarr Hoyt, Tom Seaver, Mark Buehrle ... so many more to mention. Maybe it's just me, but I prefer the day starting pitchers mattered more than one-inning wonders who take over in the sixth. Somebody important decided that a starting pitcher going through the order a third time was not necessarily a good thing.

Had to step out for a bit to prepare for going to the Hurricanes game tonight. Came back just in time to see DJ Gladney walk it off in the 9th. He finished the day 4 - 5 with a 2B. Krogman finished 2 - 3 with a BB. Solid first game back.

Hes already worth the QO, dont have to wait anymore

Notable twins Luis Alexander Basabe and Luis Alejandro Basabe, which tricked TLR into trading for the wrong Basabe.

To each his own. I guess you are just a better athlete than all of these players who are constantly getting injured.

Make that 2-0 ?
