South Side Hit Men

Chicago and Lance Lynn coming to town. Byron Buxton “Yes please”.

Chicago Baseball = Mired in mediocrity for a quarter of a century.

Brian Shaw lowers ERA under 10.

You can see the unsold season tickets in the remaining tickets for the Cubs series, a few hundred sold since I looked at this last week. https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/04005D7EC4363E53?tfl=Chicago_White_Sox-Tickets-White_Sox_Ticket_Information-ticket_grid-x0-Desktop-Landscape&adobe_mc=MCMID=14505932877399500000272204933552964990&MCORGID=A65F776A5245B01B0A490D44%40AdobeOrg&TS=1689992738

Would have been out of the inning if they played Colas as an everyday player like he should be, instead of a platoon player with non outfielders like Remillard playing RF for the first times in his professional career this season. Because White Sox. I used to blame this on Tony, but this has continued under Pedro because Hahn is absolute garbage at his job and cannot properly manage his active or 40 man roster.

Tony wouldn't stand for it. Kopech and Crochet in 2021 Bullpen. An assist to Jerry for the 102 game 2020 lockout to prevent Crochet from minor league work.

Neither Robert or Eloy swung at a strike with a chance to tie it. Disappointing.

May as well let Lynn go 7 innings tonight, only at 70 pitches.

As bad as the Sox are, I can't believe the Sox are within 2 games of Pittsburgh, which were in first place as late as June 15.

Keep plugging away Tim, and you can escape this pisshole next week.

Could have also signed a solid SP instead of going cheap for one year and end up pissing away another $37M on a rushed mid-season extension after which he has sucked ass including the 2021 playoffs. But Tony liked him in the Cardinals organization, and Hahn wanted him even before Tony, so the bird brain trust going to bird brain.

Liam likely out until 2025, Wouldn't be surprised if Crochet is lost for the same period. Another Lance Lynn Home Run, now 7-1. Fire Rick Hahn.

Can't believe some people here were advocating for Hahn to sign Lynn in 2024.

Sheets .658. 7 ABs vs. LHP (.000 OPS), can't field. Would have been sent down or DFA'd on any legitimate contending team.

Dane Dunning $0.7M 8-2 2.82 ERA 1.111 WHIP

s%*#, the Barbie movie might be preferrable to watching a Lance Lynn start.

If they don't bunt to trigger him, this could be Twins 12 Sox 1 relatively quickly. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurants-g43323-c37-Minneapolis_Minnesota.html

Let's all remember the White Sox slotted their rotation after the All Star Break targeting this series. Lance Lynn was their choice to open the weekend. Twins 5 White Sox 1 f*** you Rick Hahn you stupid f***.

Andrew Benintendi on the first pitch makes it clear the Twins are fucking worthless bitches.

I hate the Twins with every fiber in my being. I hope the Sox sweep their miserable asses and make Rocco Baldelli cry. The Sox are sellers next week regardless, would be 13 games under .500 after a sweep. Let’s do this!
