I believe Hahn will be fired. And even if it happens it doesn't matter because he'll be replaced with worse.

This is correct in regards to lopez. He failed as a starter because his head is a mess. Middle long reliever was kind of perfect for him and we should've foreseen some issues messing with that. Sox found the one role he was effective in, shouldve left it alone. But ill admit I thought his stuff was good enough to overcome it.

I've never seen a team with such a short attention span. 4 pretty quality games in Houston then nothing since.

White Sox managers are like Chicago mayors. We replace bad ones with worse.

Hahn should be fired tomorrow for this bullpen alone.

The fundamentals on this team are absolute garbage. So much for all of those "great new drills!" In spring training.

The bullpen is garbage and the bullpen management is worse.

Crazy how they were able to stay healthy during the WBC then fall apart 5 days into the season. Hard to feel an attachment to a team when you never see the same players play. Grifol far from impressive handling things so far. Same old crap.

Gonna need 10 to win this one.

Bingo

Lot of hanging pitches going nowhere with our hitters today.

I think our offense will be fine. I think our starting pitching will be mostly fine. I'm not worried about Kopech I think he comes around. But there are only 2 maybe 3 arms in the pen that instill any confidence and that's a large problem. And post cancer treatment Hendricks should not be considered a sure thing. It'll take time to rebuild strength. But you know the company line will be, "Liam will be back soon and we'll be fine." There is always at least one area Hahn fails to address and it always comes back to bite him. He learns nothing.

Kopech was trash today too. But bullpen was equally atrocious all weekend as our starters pitched brilliantly. The bullpen is expensive trash.

Fire up this thread today! This bullpen is trash.

My God that catch.....

Where is Bummer? Did I miss something or did we use him Thursday and that's it? There have been quite a few high leverage situations where a lefty specialist should've been utilized.

That was a nice baseball game to watch. Sox lose that game last year. Build on it tomorrow.

Nice looking lineup. I like Vaughn hitting 3 with Eloy behind him. Vs a righty swap Tendi or Yoan into the 2 hole and include Colas and we'll have a nice, hopefully consistent lineup.

Personally I'd like to hear from the "release him immediately" crowd...

Ha....it took a lot longer than I expected it to today for someone to throw a garbage race argument out there.

Yeah they can go ahead and trade him whenever

He's not blocking anyone. Neither Romy nor Sosa are ready to be everyday starters. This acquisition allows them to be eased in. You could argue this does them a service by allowing them to further develop without the pressure of performing at a high level immediately. And good clubhouse guy is generally someone with good character who plays the game hard/smart. This signing is a good thing. It's okay to have good things sometimes.

Based on the back and forth of the involved parties here this appears to be nothing more than a white trash custody battle playing out in the public. With mlb not taking any action since opening an investigation back in June it's likely they were gonna drop it and then it was leaked to social media to prevent that. Unless something else major comes out to substantiate, its a waste of time to continue discussing it, imo. And yes the scorecwas highly irresponsible with that interview. If she truly ends up a victim in all of this they've opened her up to litigation with any statements she made that can be picked apart by an attorney. I'm shocked they aired that.

Never would've been but at least it'd be out of the way. They've handled it poorly all the way around.

This all makes me so excited for 2023. Maybe if they'd had soxfest they could've had these pressers there rather than a dark cloud first day of spring training.
