Okay? And Korey Lee has the same fWAR as Robert, so I guess we are assuming these are all just similar caliber players then.

It sure does.

Royals have some good pitching lined up. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Sox lose all 4 while only scoring like 6 runs total in the series.

Today is the day Andrew Vaughn gets 38 hits in 4 at bats to bring his slash line up to a respectable level.

This is 100% true and honestly annoying as hell.

I think they look a lot better in game/on players than they did in the marketing video and pics.

Man this all access thing is rough. I get the idea, but woof.

No Beni? Guess we gotta wait a little longer to see that #23 Bulls jersey.

Despite the lazy idea behind them, I'm looking forward to seeing the new city connects. I can imagine liking them from a change of pace standpoint the first couple times they were them, but getting sick of them pretty quickly once the novelty wears off.

Cool, have fun with that. No one is claiming he’s figured it out, just willing to entertain the idea that he’s made some strides. Somehow this concept is difficult to grasp. Also, those posters will still be here if Vargas has a sub .600 OPS in a few months because not everyone is as obsessed with appearing smart in front of strangers on the internet.

Uh… The victoriest of all laps!

For sure. Don’t get me wrong, he could still easily end up being a bust and out of baseball in a few years. I just never understand stating something like that as fact so quickly instead of, you know, letting it actually play out.

Nice to see Vargas keep hitting despite being a guaranteed bust and out of baseball in two years or whatever premature nonsense was being spewed here.

The sox have earned zero benefit of the doubt, but at the same time, it's not like Colson is completely helpless in this situation. The org and the player both deserve blame for this.

This is all so dumb. Elko has earned a look, while Vaughn has done nothing to earn more at bats. Elko will probably be bad, but we already know Vaughn is bad. Plus there’s an (extremely) outside chance that Vaughn can fix something in AAA.

I would sooner get a Vaughn Charlotte jersey to help will it into existence.

Well he was half right

Imagine being this miserable. Also, yes, the Chicago White Sox. Well known for ignoring their history and tradition instead if relying on it to distract from the current product.

Completely agree with all of this.

Also one less uninteresting player in the lineup.

Lost in here is the fact that Amaya almost has been given enough at bats to qualify. Just a tremendous job all around.

Vaughn moves in slow motion

Def. He did hit it hard on a line after all.

Using playoff odds in April for why a team is or isn’t a contender is kind of silly. Not to mention it sucks the fun right out of everything. Just use your eyes at this point. The cubs are clearly serious contenders and one of the best teams in baseball right now. It’s not that complicated.
