Shouldn't have 2nd worst hitter batting 2nd

QUOTE (Saufley @ Aug 30, 2015 -> 12:20 AM) It has become so bad and such a joke that I don't even care anymore!! RV is an awful manager! It would even be worse if he was being told how to manage this team by KW or RH. Just fire all 3

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 11:18 PM) Rightfully so. I can't stand Samardzija at this point and can't wait for him to be gone. Please god don't accept the QO

Booing has started

Man does he freaking suck. Give his starts to Johnson.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 08:43 PM) No trayce again. What a terrible organization

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 05:58 PM) That's because of his s***ty first two months. He's had a fine year. Over the last 30 days, he's 167th out of 179 for qualified fWAR

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 04:15 PM) Melky isn't producing? He's got 61 RBIs on a s*** bad offense. His HR total should be a little higher but whatever. He's not a problem. 141st out of 155 qualified hitters in terms of fWAR. He's sucked this year.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 04:05 AM) Good thing Thompson didn't play tonight Probably don't want him to prove he's been than Avi

Good thing they have benched their hottest hitter 2 of their last 3 games. Shutout in both

Saladino looks like a utility player

Offense is just awful. Seems like only Abreu can hit a homer in this lineup

What the hell type of swing is that by Avi? I just pray they get rid of him this offseason. This team is healthy and two of the worst players in baseball are batting 4/5 in the lineup. Fail by Hahn.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Aug 29, 2015 -> 03:02 AM) You know damn well what will happen, if this season's midseason run before the trade deadline is any indication. They'll go on a late season run, win 8 of 10 and pick around 13 or 14 instead of the 7-9 range. Samardzija will end up being pitcher of the month in September

Despise the idea of Abreu batting 2nd with someone batting 9th that can't get on base

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 09:24 PM) One thing worth saying is that LaRoche is actually 7 for his last 22 with 2 HR, 3 2b, and 5 RBI in that stretch of 5 starts, and since we're going to be honest here that there is 0% chance the White Sox are going to eat the $13 million on his contract if we can nurse him back to having a decent September and rebuild his confidence in himself that could give him a shot at contributing more next year. No problem with LaRoche playing, especially since they've faced more LHP of late. Personally, don't see a reason to have the three starting outfielders playing every single day it seems.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 09:12 PM) or you DH Trayce instead of DH'ing LaRoche. Why is that so hard for Robin? There's absolutely nothing to be gained from protecting him from righties at this moment.

There are 6 teams in the NL right now that aren't even pretending to be competing (Brewers, Reds, Rockies, Phillies, Marlins, Braves). In the AL, it's hard to suggest there are any teams that are trying to tank the rest of the way.

QUOTE (ron883 @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) This is getting ridiculous. Yep, god forbid Avi, Eaton or Melky get a night off.

QUOTE (beautox @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 02:42 AM) I can appreciate the fact that Trayce isn't getting worked over like most rookies, let alone ones that usually come through this system. 4 good at bats

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 02:39 AM) Ugh Avi is pure s*** right now Try something different with his mechanics. This current approach will never work

Small sample size, but I can't remember last Sox prospect at the plate to look this competent. I love Trayce's balance

I think my biggest pet peeve in watching baseball these days is how often the broadcast doesn't show where the infielders/outfielders are lined up for every hitter. With so many shifts being deployed, they really should give the viewer an idea of where the holes are prior to the ball being put in play.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 12:30 AM) It's pure speculation man. That's why it's fun to discuss and throw crazy ideas out there. Speculate away, I'm a fan of that, but I'm not sure you'd even get Lemahieu in some of these proposed deals.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 28, 2015 -> 12:29 AM) Sounded like he's already decided to go back to Detroit I heard someone on the radio last week say that he has a tendency to say things to get fans on his side
