Just want to highlight this absurdity.
Yea but now he has 20/20 vision.

Fletcher is a guy that from just reading about him and looking at his stats I thought might be a decent pickup. Then you look at his statcast data and watch him play a couple times and there is just nothing there physically. He's 19th percentile running speed and about the same on all the important EV numbers. He has a strong arm but FFS that's not a carrying tool when you can't hit the ball over 300 feet and can't run.
Who is scouting these guys? Whoever it is should be fired.

Another kid that came up and for the most part just sucked ass. I don't even think it's the players at this point it's the org. It happens too often to be anything but. The core is rotten and the fruit rots around it.

Atta boy.
Narrowly avoiding shutout losses...not sure if that's good or bad at this point.
Now Grifol has to praise Lee for fighting until the end, lol.
He did a great job putting Lee at DH on a team that has 3 too many and a catcher with an OPS of 295. Assclown Pedro.

That's why physical profile matters more than ever in today's game. And launch angle. Ballplayer.

john sounds like he's about to cry and stone is ready to just quit mid season it appears.
Lee is a ballplayer.

vaughn chasing trash again.

I'm a Detroit Lions, UM sports, Bulls, Sox, and then dad was a ND, Bears, Sox, Blackhawks fan. I don't follow the hockey so much so can't tell you anything there but I think this season is probably approaching the Millen era Lions season as the ultimate top 5 or so failures in modern (so post like 1975) big time money American sports.
That Lions team was maybe the worst pro team of all time in our era, but this Sox team is up there. The 2003 Tigers are up there as well. Detroit appears way too often on this list but thankfully I managed to avoid becoming a Pistons and Tigers fan. Lions got me tho.
That Lions team was uniquely bad and cursed, we'll see if this White Sox team can top it.

He could at least stop acting like we're just about to turn the corner. Don't praise Sox fans and how smart and passionate they are and then blow smoke up their ass
Bingo. What he just said about Vaughn and Beni was more nonsense and smoke blowing. Dude is carrying more water than lake Michigan.

He seems to be one of these "new generation" social media guys who is hyper-concerned about internet views/likes/comments and making a name for himself. Like if Dave Portnoy was a broadcaster, the equivalent of that.
Benetti at least had the obvious talent, especially in basketball and college football.
I don't see that honestly. I see a guy that is just completely in over his head and whose paycheck depends on polishing a turd. Bad combo to listen to 150 odd nights a year.

Looks like about 5k showed up to watch this horse s%*#.

John is a fucking moron. He has no fucking clue what he's watching. Doesn't even know who is running at 3rd. I'm sorry the guy is in over his head and absolutely clueless about everything regarding baseball, Sox fans, and what it means to be a good play by play guy night in and night out.

What did he say?
paraphrasing but again he goes with "the media" and "there's been a lot of talk about Pedro's harsh words" and then he goes onto how pedro is doing everything he can like varying the lineups, manufacturing runs (wut) and is trying REALLY HARD. STFU!

Maybe Manoah was lactating. Jeesh, what an unathletic looking guy
He's a jerk loser anyways. f*** him.

Fletcher isn't a MLB player. Nothing in his physical profile checks out. That's as hard as he can hit it. WHO THE f*** IS SCOUTING THESE BUMS?

Holy f***. So it wasn't just some regional scout or some s%*# it was 1) our new assistant GM and 2) a guy that should have been intimately familiar with all of Fletcher's flaws.
What. The. f***.
