I think Sox might be reading Lynch's mail on the changeups

Well he is about that age and he has a bum wheel on top of it

very good in-zone contact, yes.

Was surprised to look at Pasquantino's FanGraphs page and see that his K rate is way below league average.

trying to bait KC into using a RHP earlier in the game

Pham looking to keep his White Sox OPS north of 1.000 tonight

I still think KC has a nice position player core.

Facial expressions and body language

Let's have this conversation when the White Sox are winning 95+ games, lmao As for a balanced schedule, it would be torturous to me on the east coast to have the Sox playing a bunch more games in the pacific time zone. It would kill the TV ratings for any east coast team.

Also, Statcast data has him suffering horrendous luck as of late. That said, he is legitimately weak against LHP so far. I still would prefer to have him playing just about every day, though.

Has Riley Greene always looked so chunky (for a professional baseball player)?

Doyle with two tough luck outs today. He looks pretty good up there

I was 80% on board with taking Davis out quickly and then went to 100% on board when I checked the metrics and saw he had a big velo drop in that final inning

3.45 ERA, 4.14 FIP, 3.84 xERA, 4.00 SIERA. Pretty consistent across the board IMO

Vasil was different in that his underlying metrics were a lot worse than his ERA. Usually can't get away with walking everybody (and being the worst in MLB at holding runners on) unless you can strike guys out at a Hagen Smith level

Richards has a 3.45 ERA despite constantly being left out to die with no/minimal rest. Underlying metrics are consistent with the ERA too. I know it doesn't look amazing but at some point you have to just say this guy is probably an acceptable major league pitcher

Most likely, today is a scheduled bullpen day for Kay and he wasn't able to do it pregame because of the rain

Chase arguably deserves both the Gold Glove and Silver Slugger for 2B this season

Davis's velo was down 1ish mph from his season averages overall today and all of his pitches were down an extra 2 mph in the 5th inning

Get Luis Castillo loose

Davis hasn't thrown more than 80 pitches since he came back and had short outings before that. Sox are trying not to push him with the way he's worn down over the course of the season. Hoping to keep him feeling fresh going into his last start and the playoffs.

What were you guys worrying about

I don't think Davis looked all that great so I don't mind not letting him go a third time through the order. Of course that is assuming that the bullpen has some guys who know how to pitch.

Teel has really been hanging in there against LHP

Hell yeah
