8/24 Game Thread - White Sox v. Tigers
I'm all for tanking, but hard to argue about Yoan and Timmy having a big impact.

8/24 Game Thread - White Sox v. Tigers
What I loved about the Yoan at bat is he didn't take the 2-0 pitch. He swung hard and did damage. He's been great with bases loaded.

biggest reason why Ricky and Steverson need to be canned the day after this season ends is Yoan is significantly worse now than when he came up last season in every single aspect.

8/24 Games
I completely get the lack of power due to the injury, but you would think that one of him/Madrigal/Sheets/Rutherford would run into a ball (roughly 500 at bats combined between them since their last W-Salem homer), especially considering their home field RF fence is a joke. But hey, at least Omar has them perfecting their ability to bunt.

should have been sent to AAA a few weeks ago. Too late now, as nothing has changed with his approach. He makes strikes on the outer half look like they're 2 feet off the plate.

right side of infield defense has been a joke tonight

quite the sad offensive effort the last two days. There is no doubt in my mind Eloy would be the best hitter on this team right now.

Seems to make up his mind before the pitch if he's going to swing or not. Like with everyone else on W-S besides Gonzalez and Mercedes, the lack of power is very frustrating.

And Iglesias with maybe worst pitch he's ever thrown. What a crock

I also don't get how Cardinals passed on Murphy and went for Adams when they knew Ozuna was hurt.

So nice of Texas and Nats to bail out Theo's awful offseason.

Collins with 2 more strike outs looking tonight. He's the minor league version of Yoan.

Just a poor lack of command on his fastball. Still has a great hook, but can't get ahead of the count to put people away with it.

Nick madrigal tracker
Been watching Madrigal last few days. Way too much soft contact, as he's not getting his front foot down in time. Until they get him stronger and make mechanical changes, he looks like those shortstops from before the steroid era where you could knock the bat out of their hands.

Wellness check at all Applebees in Kansas? In all honesty, hope he's ok.

Hansen looks just awful. At this point, you almost hope it's a minor injury.

In this case, it's literally fans of Riverdale that are upset about who an actress on their favorite show is dating

I remember you saying there were a few out there after the Hader incident

Kopech the latest MLB player with questionable Twitter history
Well he clearly doesn't hate all black people. Anyone comparing these comments to Hader or Josh Allen is just a psycho Cubs fan trying to distract from Murphy being anti-gay people.

I remember someone drafted relatively high by the Sox in the last 10 years who had bad stuff on twitter prior to the draft.

Yeah some girl even tried to inform tmz of this and I guess they weren't interested. If you go back to the Kopech call up thread, this was why I said Tuesday would be very interesting. I even pm'd a few on here about the storm likely to brew. If you search on twitter, certain Riverdale fans have been calling him a racist and homophobe for months.
