I’ll be there with my son. We’ll do our best to bring home the split.

Real talk everyone, I’m currently way better at gamethreads than Ron

Can’t hear you I’m Redditing

Another huge win in extra innings! Great to get the split. Up 2 on CLE

In the moment, this has to be the most Caulfield post ever. Only thing lacking is tangential length

You’re dealing two different versions of him though as he fixed his arm angle post injury and also started using his 4 seamer a fuckton more. Pre injury: 17.2 IP | 7.64 K/9 | 8.66 BB/9 | 0.51 HR/9 | 5.60 ERA | 4.60 xERA | 5.20 FIP | 3.7% 4 seamer Post injury: 13.1 IP | 14.18 K/9 | 3.38 BB/9 | 0.00 HR/9 | 0.00 ERA | 1.15 xERA | 1.08 FIP | 25.5% 4 seamer

That crying kid is possibly going to be the moment that changes this team and their chances of winning it all. Thanks you brat, the Sox are here to contend after all

Cruz was puffing his chest so bad after getting the ground out last inning. Eat s%*#. Also, once again, the Sox demise is greatly exaggerated.

No, Getz's job is to manage the interaction between scouting and development. It's shorthand to say that "Banny's got a type". Sorry if that confuses you. I would imagine scouting and "Banny" are on the same page in that the scouts already know what our developmental strengths and preferences are, and they're making sure dudes look healthy and as advertised. There are entire departments that run numbers on everyone in the league, and asst-GMs who get all the trade talk started. Getz delegates. That's how he ends up announcing that Acuña's a switch hitter. Seriously, if you think that Chris Getz is sitting in the stands of a game in Rancho Cucamonga with a radar gun, you're not even clearing the low bar you've established for your posts.

Colson is one of our best hitters against LHP and is a top 8 SS in the game at 24 with one year experience. Nobody is trading him, including the WS, because you might have Roch in 2028.

Boston Smith w a double followed up with a another Bonemer Hr….please do not trade this dude

Another HR for Bonemer.

Wasn’t pretty, but we got it done! Horrible traffic coming home, but so much easier to sit through after a win.

Of course it had to be the Banana Man to secure the split 🍌 Nice work by your first place Chicago White Sox to turn in a respectable homestand after a rough start. Had to empty both the pen and the bench for these last two, but they got it done. Putting up some fight in the first two kept Bednar unavailable for the Yanks, which ended up paying off. Meanwhile, the Sox staff gave up just two Manfred runs over the last 22 innings. Hat tip to Seranthony especially. 21-15 in one run games this year, after going 15-36 last year. 34 wins at home surpasses the 2025 total with 26 left to play. Win #57 last year was in game 147 last year (in a series win vs. the Rays coincidentally, which I'll take as a good omen for the upcoming series)

Coward wouldn't even show his face today. He was probably getting ready to post another thread about selling if we lost.

Reminds me of the 4 game series in Cleveland.

Didn't wanna go with Clevinger?

Like I said in the game thread. Chris needs to get these boys some new teammates. They deserve it.

Playing BananaBall he probably has seen a pitcher with a shovel.

Somebody go tell the foodies to make up a rumor.

Lmao man I aspire to be as cool as you one day

Who gives a s%*# who gets the "credit". From what we've been told or has leaked Getz's biggest strength is not worrying about credit and simply letting his folks get the job done to the best of their abilities. If Bannister isn't getting it down, he'll be replaced sooner or later. For now it's a moot point. He's not getting let go during the home stretch here and he will have input.

am i the only one that thinks there should be a hip-hop supergroup called "playaz 2 be named later"?

I'd do sick, disgusting, unforgivable things for a win today and a big trade. Even just a rumor...a little taste is all I need.

Unlike some constitutionally weak fans out there, your first place Chicago White Sox just don't quit. 8 walkoffs so far this season, Quero becomes the first Sox with more than one. Big HRs from Sam and Mune to make it possible. Dart got burned on a bad pitch to Jones in the first, but otherwise did a hell of a job keeping the team in the game for the next 5 innings. The pen held the Yankees to just 1 Manfred run for the rest of the game, so that's a combined 11 innings with 0 ER. Special shoutout to Taylor for his 7 outs, and Hicks for his impressive show of testicular fortitude and continued dominance since coming off the IL. No flipping clue who pitches tomorrow, but that's a tomorrow problem. For tonight... CLE won, MIN and DET lost. The Detroit loss was especially brutal, Skubal left with a 7-0 lead with 2 out in the 7th after collecting career K #1000 in his last start before the deadline...Tigers lost 10-9 in 12. They would need a whole new pen if they want to justify keeping him, but I do hope they try and fall short anyway.

Blackburn had allowed 4 HR all season, and only 4 ER since May 16 (0.92 ERA, 2nd best in MLB over that time) before the Sox tagged him for 2 HR/3 ER to tie the game.

And a list of random Twins' shortstops. Greg Gagne, Roy Smalley, Nick Punto and Pat Meares.

Dominguez and Hicks are actually contributing. Colson needs to get his head on straight...amazing they won with him and Vargas struggling so much. Quero at least shows signs of life in late game situations. Great job by pitching staff all around. Burke laying claim to ace/tor/stopper title officially.

Go get some players this weekend Chris. This team deserves it.

The Bananas

I would take until you see a strike.

Definitely need one ASAP! f*** I’ll take a made up one just to have something to talk about!

All of Soxtalk in shambles

Please end this. I can't take more Manfred ball.

Just a guy who gets on base and makes things happen any way no matter who’s on the mound. He should be in against lefties and righties. Just hit him lower against lefties maybe.

Never saw him live, just on TV in the 55 and 56 World Series. My first live game was at Comiskey in July 1955 with my Cub Scout pack.

Hello? Walkoffs!!!

Not sure Colson is swinging well enough to have 3-0 greenlights right now.

Feel like there should be an Illinois rapper named “Illah Noise”

The joke is on you because you’re looking at reddit

Venable sometimes goes overboard on lefty- righty matchups. Sometimes you have to go with the hot hand.

So 6 months from this deal is Saturday. The PTBNLs have to be announced in the next couple days.

....with such a move likely hurting the Cubs being the added bonus.

It's the more fun alternative to him ending up a Dodger

We're still trying to trade that guy that put up 5 WAR and 12 OAA in his first 162 games at the toughest position in the sport? 🙄

I really see a lot of the same strut from Burke that I saw from Jon Garland when he finally realized his potential. Love to see that confidence

We will just accept you being happy with it

It's going to be a fun weekend of me absolutely doing nothing except scrolling on my phone waiting for trades and baseball

What a shame Mune lost 6 weeks with that injury, no telling what kind of records he might have set for any kind of a rookie.
