I'll be at the game today. If you're there, say HI. I'll be wearing the paper bag over my head.

Here's why I don't buy the "Moncada attitude" argument He's playing A+ defense at 3B. If this were some kind of work ethic or attitude problem, his entire game would suffer, not just his hitting. It's either a physical issue, an issue with how he's being coached, a confidence problem, or some combination of those three.

Velasquez .1 inning, 3H 2bb. Another great offseason acquisition.

Zero excuse to not play Sosa every day at 2B or SS. I truly despise that rotting piece of shit corpse excuse for a manager. Keep trotting out the player with a solid 41 wRC+ Tony.

Gee Steve, you weren't whining about TA in 2020.

Tony La Russa is the absolute worst.

Because burger sucks at 3B and Moncada is very good at 3B and this team already sucks defensively. This has been covered extensively.

Carlos Perez should get a shot if Seby and Grandal continue to suck.

I bet he sits everyone Monday

He looks like he’s never swung a bat in his life. Burger deserves to be playing over this asshole.

Is he saying they were better under Renteria?

The fact this guy is still employed is a microcosm of what is wrong with this franchise. Never has it been more evident this team needs new ownership ASAP.

Leaving the abbreviation spring training we all knew that JR being the idiot he is allowed Hahn to put together a horrible roster and that Tony is the worst manager in baseball who has the worst hitting coach in baseball in the dugout. I expected a third place or worse finish and that's where we are at. These brave players are playing hard and giving us their best each day but low talent and no motivation is tough to overcome without great coaching. I feel sorry they are playing in such a horrible organization who values profits over their salaries. So I expect a loss each day. I'm not going to get upset when they are meeting expectations. When they win it's a miracle that will be celebrated. If they somehow can make the playoffs they will be the Miracle Mets x2.

That’s what’s so baffling to me. His D is A++ on most nights. He’s still locked in defensively despite his struggles at the plate. And calling them struggles is quite generous. He looks absolutely lost with a bat in his hands, clueless even. I have no explanation to accurately or adequately explain what is wrong, be it physical, mental, psychological, coaching, or what. I don’t know how someone plays GG caliber D night in & night out and looks, *looks* like they utterly don’t give a shit at the plate. Partying all night doesn’t explain the polar opposites in his play on both sides of the field.

Lambert's ERA is under 1 this year as a reliever. Hitters have a .516 OPS against him.

The offense immediately erupted since the change! Thanks @Kalapse!

Great to see the Sox lineup doing exactly what they should against a mediocre pitcher

Watching Yoan try to hit right now is brutal

I am too, and I’m left handed!

If they are looking for a guy to just stand there and take strikes…I’m available.

Predictable, but what a fricking joke. It's August. Leury sucks. This isn't some April slump, it is who he is. Meanwhile, you waste a kid's development time. If you're not gonna play him, why is he there? Please God, get rid of TLR before he destroys the entire rebuild.

Lets see how a guy with a 7 era can shut us down today

Lenyn should play all 3 TA suspended games at SS but we all know Tony will play his boy Leury.

Two years ago he just got here and barely had a chance to install his offensive philosophy. More importantly, two years ago there was a juiced ball and that allowed for different approaches to be successful. This is classic Steven Stone water carrying and the dude needs to simply STFU when it comes to his Twitter usage. I seriously doubt there is another professional sports announcer who spends the bulk of his time ripping his team’s fanbase.

Man when are you gonna learn to stop telling everyone what is gonna happen so definitively

Listing out 18 random names that have nothing to do with any topic that was previously being talked about doesn’t count as “legitimate discussion.”

2 damned hits?? 2? Two?? Fire this no talent ass clown into the sun already. And take most of the coaching staff with you. FFS. What the bloody fuck are we doing here?!

1 run on 77 hits

Pollock with an RBI from the leadoff spot

At least Moncada's chain game is strong!

This is 100% wrong. MLB heard his appeal and reduced his suspension there Qnon.

If I had three White Sox wishes, one would be to flip Lenyn’s name with Tony’s in the first sentence.

I lost my optimism enjoyed in 2019 and 2020, when Jerry fired Ricky, and instead of conducting a legitimate manager search ended up hiring this drunken senile disgraceful buffoon. Sox fans were locked into a full porta-pot and rolled down an enormous hill on October 29, 2020, a date which will live in infamy. I get why some may have continued to share optimism the past two seasons, primarily due to their love of the core players, and hoping the team could succeed despite the shitshow management and ownership. The pathetic ownership and stewardship of the other four AL Central teams also gave fans legitimate hope that this team could finish as the tallest midget, or earn one of six farcical wild card births, and win a wild card series if everything worked out. Anything is possible until a team is eliminated, but any cause for optimism now is based on blind faith and hope against logic and what fans have witnessed the past two seasons. This is the burden Sox fans have carried since the day they were born, but it didn’t have to be this way.

The sad part is Lenyn just started heating up at AAA too. But alas, need to give the worst player more playing time.

When would you like this to start, @caulfield12?

what a dope.

You are probably spot on with this post. With that said, I'm still hoping that somehow, someway, this miserable team can catch fire. Time is running out so if they're going to kick it in gear they need to do so now as it's been way overdue.

Leury start, another loss

Tony would have benched TA for a game of the DH anyway, so this is effectively a 1 game suspension.

Too late!

Yes you can! Such as: His teammates don't care and aren't hustling. He is doing his best but he can't motivate or get others to do the same. His manager has created a toxic and negative team culture, which is why many of the players do not hustle, try harder or care. Pretty much in a polite and round about way, Jose just threw several players and his manager under the bus!

6-5 so far, great work team

Over/under 4 at bats while he’s up?

Why not try Burger at third moncada and second. They see nothing wrong with this team.

It wasn’t a disagreement it was you telling me I was wrong. I don’t care what you think about the movie, I enjoyed it a lot.

Maybe instead of jeers and boos we should just laugh them off the field every day. I follow them for entertainment and honestly, this team could pass more as a comedy act than as excellence entertainment wise. And I don’t mean Globetrotters kind of comedy. I mean 67 Mets kind of comedy.

Im positive he’s full of shit, but hopefully a blind squirrel finds nut situation.

2017 CHW: .256 AVG, .314 OBP, .417 SLG 2022 CHW: .258 AVG, .312 OBP, .386 SLG Thats right, our offense is on par, if not worse, than the team we fielded after waving the white flag and starting a massive rebuild. WHY ISNT ANYONE BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE HERE?
