Johnson is starting tonight...Anderson also

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:42 PM) Not only what you said but the contract pretty much cripples any other additions for the year. Maybe Morneau if he can get healthy for July but can the Sox hang in the race til then ? Not only crippled this year but next year also

QUOTE (Knuckles @ May 28, 2016 -> 11:38 PM) Let's take a breather, if I told you before the season, Sox are trading EJ and Tatis JR (who?) for Shields because they are 27-23 you would probably say HELL YEAH. I would say that after Shields couldn't keep the ball in the park last year, he would be a bad fit here

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:30 PM) Jesus Christ. Even I didn't think they could blow a 6 run lead that late. No lead feels safe anymore. In April, a 1 run lead felt like a sure thing.

Rabbit tweeted that Johnson was scratched

Really don't want Dakota Hudson with the first pick (with Law hearing of the Sox wanting college arms). Watch them shock us and take Tyler at 10.

Some tweets by respected baseball writers: Jonah KeriVerified account ‏@jonahkeri 44m44 minutes ago Better leave David Robertson in for 9 more hits, just to be sure Rany Jazayerli ‏@jazayerli 29m29 minutes ago Special shoutout to Robin Ventura, who among other things deliberately walked the bases loaded, ensuring his pitcher had no margin for error Joe Sheehan ‏@joe_sheehan 46m46 minutes ago There's a pretty good "30 For 30" to be done on Robin Ventura's bullpen management the last 18 hours or so.

Joe Ostrowski ‏@JoeO670 29m29 minutes ago White Sox have lost 6 straight series for the first time since 2007

By my count, 27 of Robertson's 29 pitches were fastballs/cutters. That's absolutely ridiculous

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:59 PM) Times like these are where players like Lawrie are supposed to cease the lethargic play and make us start winning again The offense has been fine the last two days. This is all on the bullpen/decision making.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 28, 2016 -> 09:57 PM) He's definitely not at fault today. He managed some things poorly yesterday but millionaire athletes need to do their jobs properly. Fire him. Don't fire him. People greatly overrate the impact of a manager. Just hate that over last two games, only time Nate Jones was used was when trailing.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:55 PM) I questioned bringing Robertson in from the start of that inning . Hate seeing closers used when it's not a closing situation. But i figured hey 6 run lead even if he does wet the bed how often do teams come back from that big of a lead ? Thought if there was ever a time to use Purke this was it. So how often do things like blowing a lead that big in the 9th happen ? Last time was 6 years ago in MLB. Or let Albers pitch with some room for error.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:54 PM) They aren't selling. What if they are ten out come July 31

QUOTE (juddling @ May 28, 2016 -> 09:52 PM) I always hear how JR is loyal to his former players...well i wish some reporter would ask him 'When is it time to be loyal to the fans???" Robin may not be the whole problem but he's a BIG percentage and since you can't fire a whole bullpen the manager needs to go. I think i'm gonna throw names in a hat and pick a new team to root for until RV is gone. JR has done a nice job of making fans of his two teams hate the organizations

QUOTE (Baron @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:51 PM) If they are sellers Rick Hahn might as well pack his bags. He wont be coming back. Probably what needs to happen. Doesn't know how to build a winner or farm system

Bad frame job hurt at the end https://mobile.twitter.com/WhiteSoxUmp/stat...672287169105921

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 28, 2016 -> 09:47 PM) I haven't watched 1 second today. Just checked box score. Do I even want to know anymore Biggest choke job I have ever seen by the Sox

Why trade now when it's just as likely you are sellers in two months

Why was he allowed to pitch to Hosmer? It was obvious his fastball sucked today. Perfect chance to try Purke, and if that went bad, Jones should have been ready. Cooper's pitch calling is comically bad of late. Just so freaking stubborn.

Too bad he didn't trust his initial instincts and reject the job. His entire tenure has been a disaster.

Team lost all its confidence after the Rangers debacle.

Shocked Abreu didn't make the play

Worst loss I can recall

Fitting...changes needs to be made. Decision makers just suck in this franchise

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 28, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Why do you intentially load the bases with a guy with no control? Absolutely insane
