A-Train to 35th

Great, just what we need another catcher who can't catch. "but he’ll need to refine his catching technique to become an everyday backstop in the major leagues. "

goodnight

Bring Bummer in and really make my day

You really meant to say the last three years.

No it's real it's the 2023 White Sox

Lance pissed at the bobble, you should be pissed at yourself for allowing the Cubs back in the game you jackass

TLR

no one up in the bullpen, WTF

he's done, get him out now

Ground ball pitcher against the MLB pitcher that gives up the most HR's, this could get ugly.

That was before he had his contract extended

Yet we have a team full of DH's who hit ground balls.

That's really the point of the thread. The Ray's and most teams for that matter, are > the White Sox at player development and coaching.

That's the article that gave me the idea to start the topic. It's been talked about here before, but it's nice to see reported.

I think this speaks volumes about the Sox player development. While Diekman at this point in his career shouldn't need development sometimes wise advise is all it takes. Obviously Tampa knows how to teach new players and simplify things for struggling players they acquire. The sox did Andrew Vaughn no favors by bringing him up to learn a new position in the outfield. He has not taken the next step mainly IMO because the Sox f***ed around with him so much he didn't have time to develop.

Sox instructed Diekman to use all 4 of his pitches which resulted in a 6.52 era in 26 games for the Sox. Tampa gets him and tells him to only throw his 4-seamer and breaker and that resulted in a 2.21 ERA in 25 games, and he hasn't allowed a run in 19 of his last 20 appearances.

Any GM that had the same money restrictions put on Hahn, would fail also. To think that Benintendi is the largest contract ever given out by the Sox tells the story. I agree with your logic on the RP.

Just leave his swing alone please......

Montgomery has missed most of the year with back issues so he clearly has White Sox bust written all over him.

I was at a girls softball game today and they were running hard to 1B on walks. It's all about attitude, you either want to be in the game and play hard or you don't. This team could care less.

Poor Tim, it's everyone else's fault he's playing so bad. Sounds to me like it's getting to him.

or Oscar Colas

Remember when Kenny said someone would be held accountable after the disaster in April-May. Who was that person held accountable??

I'm glad I joined them but had to check in after seeing them give up 6 in the 11th. What a mess.

Make it fourth, I bet Madrigal can play a better SS than TA, 5th if you factor in Elvis's past time at SS. He's delusional.
