Start him. Fuck it. We have nothing to lose. The way Dallas is pitching is basically an auto 5 run hole by the 4th inning.

I would like to see some crisp baseball this series. Outside of the TB series there hasn't been much of it, and even that one had some WTF moments.

Frankly our best hope is that he's not completely washed and can put up a 1.5 WAR season somehow. Our other options are trash.

Yea I was gonna say most good teams do not have stretches like that. Not that it never happens but that it's a bad sign early for the Sox. There are plenty of arguments for optimism that isn't one of them however.

Is there a chance the system will have a couple back end top 100 ranked guys in the midseason updates? Seems like it right?

This is one of the 80 you're gonna lose. Wait, that's not right.

If the Sox suck this year Jason is going to be insufferable. I mean I already think he is, but my opinion will spread to half this forum or more. He's a total water carrier.

I mean you scored 2 runs in 9 innings. It's not Bummer's fault or TLRs today it's the fucking offense sucks balls.

This is a bad team with no leadership. It can change but right now is what it is.

There are times to hustle and times to take it safe. Bottom of the 9th is time to fucking hustle.

You build your bullpen dead last except in Chicago where you build it first and it still sucks. You'd think 2005 would have hammered into the FO's how silly it is to try and project relievers year to year.

hey guys stop me if you've hard this before: your bullpen is only as good as your offense.

lol that HR raised his OPS to 363

ump putting in about as much effort as the sox hitters.

Corpseball!

I'm starting to think the "true talent" level of this team is 80 wins.

I'd probably prefer Engel to Gavin every single day until Engel is hurt. Gavin just isn't cutting it.

If there was one thing I didn't want to fucking see it was corpseball. This is that.

I'm not sure Vaughn can hit a ball much harder than he did yesterday and that thing went what, 365? Ball is dead.

lol I vaguely remember that, wasn't it just a batter?

Gavin Sheets' days are numbered.

I'm left handed, hit 250 in DIII 12 years ago have two surgically reconstructed knees and I'm about 20lbs over my playing weight but I think I'm ready to play 2B for the White Sox when called.

This is the post ur music thread no? hey rick hahn:

I'm not even talking chase rate as much as punishing pitches in the zone via such a powerful and on balance swing. If he gets a hanging slider first pitch from some RHP reliever hit that shit into the bleachers more often than not and make them throw fastballs.

yea that's the best case. plays 30 games a year there and is such a good bat you tolerate the AA level defense. I like Jake, he has a spot in MLB which is crazy after what he's went through but he's not a full time 2B, he's barely a backup corner IF guy right now.
