Tim Anderson out 4-6 weeks with torn ligament in his hand
Just play whatever young guys we have. Team has been toast a long time and this solidifies team's status as lousy. Best wishes to TA. Injuries suck.

8/9 Game 1 GT: Sox at Royals - Lynn vs. TBD (Tue 310CT)
Sorry to have to predict this: Sox lose two today. Sox do not beat Central teams on a regular basis. Game One to be one of the smallest crowds in KCR history I predict. If they actually count the fans maybe 1000 in the ballpark I predict.

Long Term Contracts
I would never sign a pitcher to a long term deal anymore. Starters that go past five are becoming extinct. In 2-3 years there will be two inning limits basically with relievers going the entire game. Four relievers two innings each plus the closer. No pitcher will be worth unlimited millions of dollars. Pitchers are gonna be like second basemen, a dime a dozen. Just my take. Also pitchers are gonna continue to get hurt, which is part of the reason they'll all be two-inning wonders. Good luck to hitters facing those fresh arms coming at em with guns blazing (fastballs to go with the out pitch in the dirt) the entire game. As far as everyday hitters, a GM has rocks for brains if ever giving out a deal that spans more than 3 seasons. Signing a guy for 8-10 years is just stupid in this day and age.

I guess those of us who value pitching and defense should be elated with this win.

Good job by Liam. He and Cease are by far the Sox two best players IMO.

Sox usually have pretty decent closers. It's the other relievers who traditionally stink.

This would be a nice Liam save.

I would think so. I don't even want to think about it.

Sox trying to hang on in a game they once again hit horrendously. Yasmani seems like a very bad baseball hitter to me. Is anybody high on him still? Poor Moncada also appears hopeless. Six hits is another anemic night.

GT 8/4: Perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist during your windup?
Sox would be well served to have a roster plan in the future. If you want to stockpile DHs and 1Bmen, you are the White Sox front office. There has to be a way to get some guys who can play outfield as well as hit a bit. Also in this day and age of lift and pull they better start teaching these guys in the minors how to lift and pull. You can't win when u lead the league in errors and frankly probably have a lot more since official scorers usually call things hits.

OM gosh. Three of the worst at bats of the season there. Hyperbole. I don't think so but I"m upset, so maybe. I don't know if Tony is OK or not still but why the hell does he want to manage the rest of this season? Tony ... go enjoy some hobbies and let somebody else try to win with this flawed team. Please Tony!

Nice to see Jose this series return to his old form vs. KC. He killed them in the past. Jose is really putting together another Jose-like season despite the early month woes and some people doubting him. Eloy mania is back. If Eloy can stay healthy and get some help from hitting coaches, it's apparent he can hit.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER
Finally doing what the team needs to do vs. Central Division. Beat these very weak teams on a nightly basis. That said, love Eloy and Jose raking. Some other guys got hits, too. Bash the ball.
