yeah these texas series losses drag on me because on friday it really felt like things were coming around, and when we were up 5-0 saturday I thought they were back. Offensively it's so much better with Abreu/Vaughn and Burger dragging the team most nights. If bullpen can prevent collapses we'll see whta happens.

I don't think it exists for dalquist. It's weird because fangraphs has a lot of minor league data for swinging strike data (you can find giolito's minor league percentages) but it doesn't have batted ball stats on Dalquist. Maybe if he ever gets up to AAA the statcast data will be available.

These opener 2 IP + Martin games have worked well

Yessss

Very Dalquistian start from Dalquist.

I'll say this for harrison, the middle infield defense with Mendick/Harrison the last few weeks has actually stabilized. But Mendick is just rock solid so it should be fine. In general I appreciate how Mendick just makes all the throws (even if I find his arm weak)

Seems Faedo had a scouting report on Engel.

He did have a nice at bat late last night

@Harry Chappas you are an excellent GT creator

I don't know how you put up numbers Mclaurin has in those offenses if you aren't a number one. I get he's atypical build, but so was AB.

No DSL today ?

do people care about pinning these? I can't tell if it's nice or if I'm just creating another thing in my life where I will constantly disappoint.

Great Jose Rodriguez night. Why does Quezada only play like once a week?

Dayummmmmm

Boy, Moncada is just so out of sorts. Would rather he go back to his 2018 swing at nothing form for a few weeks than this.

Looks like he’s mastered his fastball now. That was part 1.

I truly just don't believe hiring a manager is as hard as the white sox make it out to be.

Liam Hendriks has a flexor strain. “It’s a matter of how he responds to treatment over the next few days before we come up with an exact timetable,” White Sox GM Rick Hahn said. “But the preliminary estimate is three weeks.” @ptatcis that news any different or more clarifying?

I don't believe Hendriks has had TJS before.

GOOD GOD

So Quinn did not show up to mandatory ota.

Really? I feel like HS baseball is different. Starting pitchers go 5 IP+, middle of the order bats end up with 5-6 HRs. It's baseball-like. I always enjoyed HS baseball around here.

Well shoot I don't think they will pull it off. Gonna need some real magic (other team committing extraordinary amounts of errors and walks)

I know, it's a beautiful star I orbit around. It's insane. BUt it's similar to people that love sudoku. I get this box score, I look, there will be like 25 runs scored. You'll say to yourself "wow must have been some big performances" but then basically every hitter just has a single. But there will be like 30 errors you can't see. Then you'll look at the hitters and they all struck out like 15 times, but the opposing pitchers will all have horrendous numbers barely striking out anyone. I just want to be the scorekeeper at the games. It has to be just stupefying and hilarious and beautiful watching this baseball-like game.

This DSL game rules. DSL White Sox losing 10-9. They have 12 Walks and 9 hits, and no extra base hits. A DSL game extraordinaire. My gut says DSL White Sox pull it out.
