This game is giving me the ick.

i think this is fair.

I'd consider trading Jimenez. Horrible defender, horrible runner, and at-best slightly above average DH.

I was wondering the same thing. This quote doesn't really make sense absent other details.

Soroka has by far the worst FIP of all qualified pitchers in baseball. The combination of below average velocity and bottom of the barrel control is a big problem. If he can throw more strikes I guess it's possible for him to become something of a poor-to-fair starter rather than a horrible starter.

I just can't get upset about Tommy Pham, TOMMY PHAM... getting a day off. This is not what is holding us back.

Lenyn Sosa has basically refused to take a walk during his professional career. Especially in his time at the major league level. PLEASE avoid these types of players in the rebuild to the extent possible.

Crochet's SOs/9 leads the entire league*. Hope he gets a nice start. *I assume this is among qualified starters.

Debuting my new avatar...

We probably aren't going to win this game. (if this franchise isn't going to put much effort in to win games, I don't think I should put much effort into my posts)

Do we really think Vaughn is worse than Sheets at first? Really?

FYI - It looks like Korey Lee is throwing runners out at the league average. Around 23% of the time. But Maldonado has only thrown out 1 runner all year to a very poor caught stealing rate. Another great reason to keep Korey in the line-up as much as possible.

Weird report... he's given up 5 homeruns already and has a FIP of 6.00.

Eder has pitched less than 9 innings and Jake Burger's sample size is also super small. So let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I thought this was a discussion about Colas? P.S. Did he actually get optioned? Or bad reporting?

A reminder that Gavin Sheets has only 33 plate appearances this year.

Who will be the 2024 White Sox All-Star Representative?

This might make you feel good to say, but he's one of the best we got. *gulps*

Random thoughts... Gavin Sheets WAS a high draft pick, and Jose Valentin was decidedly better than replacement level.

This is going on 4 years of this message board debating whether it's the players faults, trainers faults, coaches fault, whether guys are too muscular, etc. etc. etc. I'm just ready to start with a whole new group of dudes.

This is a desastre personal...

Damn...

Who cares.

What actually happened to Eloy? Did he get hurt running to first base again?

Not made up: "To generate the playoff odds, we take the current standings, the remaining schedule, and each team's projected performance. We use those inputs to simulate the remaining season 20,000 times. We aggregate these outcomes to find the probability of winning the division or a Wild Card spot, along with winning the World Series and various playoff rounds. If a team has a 90% chance to make the playoffs it means that 18,000 out of the 20,000 simulated seasons end with the team making the playoffs." MLB Playoff Odds | FanGraphs Baseball
