Jose Rodriguez 2/2 with 2 doubles

Jesus that’s awful. It did seem he was rather unceremoniously let go.

I don’t know how this is possible but Kanny started with 3 straight hits including a lead off double for Jose Rodriguez and didn’t score a run?

Feels like we are just in a countdown until “Teven Jenkins will start season on IR with back tightness”

Dame was awful in the olympics. Was damn proud watching Zach. His defense and efficiency were exactly what was needed.

So Nice to have em going

Mieses with a hit and has already raised that BA to .218 in like a week

It’s just baseball. There are 162 of these things.

You can feel bad about it without going to the pathetic depths of that game thread

Sosa double, and I am very excited for Thompson day

Buncha Whiney crybabies

Man you guys are pathetic.

Just watching that, nothing felt more guaranteed than that outcome. All year, no matter the pitcher.

Ha actually happy about this.

So Guariman has been hitting in DSL. He's 2 for 2 with a triple today, now 9/23 (.391) with more walks than strikeouts! He's only 17 and actually was a pretty big bonus. From @Y2Jimmy0 Guariman is a Venezuelan catcher with some quality defensive skills. A bonus of $475,000 is fairly significant and the backstop provides some raw pop as well. Raw power is one of the traits the White Sox have looked for under the leadership of Marco Paddy. http://www.futuresox.com/2020/12/29/2020-2021-white-sox-international-signing-preview/

As much as I would love to point to ole jimbo, I think it's more to do with Lauri. I just think back to that incredible run he had in feb 2019, culminating with an epic game vs the hawks where he set career highs, and then all the sudden basically his season ends due to his heart. I think that (reasonably so) scared him and maybe has caused him from going full bore in games, and why he may want to park on the 3 point line rather than banging down low.

yeah, very happy we aren't on like a $70m extension for him. Still can't believe how timid he became.

I think ultimately the Charlotte news was good news. Their offer sheet being 2 years is not enough for a S&T, so it was really just a match or no match decision. That probably would have been a match scenario except with news Lauri wants out I can't see bulls doing that. Now we don't really need to worry, I don't see a team that has the space for signing him outright under the cap. So there will be a S&T. If Lauri wants to start, I can't really see a team other than Minny but..they just did the Prince trade. I think Lauri is better, but, that trade was last week

Incredible chart

well I know nothing

Nice, yeah. I forgot about him, he had a decent Badler writeup on his 55 grade present power when he was just 16. Would be nice to see him turn it on late. Also Goosenberg homer! That was finally a nice ACL box score.

Well the Lauri to CHA intrigue was short-lived. Oubre to Hornets for 2 years 26 mill, probably identifical to what they would have offered Lauri if it didn't work out. At this point, really hard to see what team goes after him.

Holy smokes

With his walk, hackenburg still hitting 1.000

Debut for Goosenburg (go wildcats)
