jason and len are painful.

Thank god it won't require surgery. Surgery in the hip introduces all sorts of complexities that we don't want, Robert doesn't want. Sounds more like a grade 2 where there is enough connection for the body, with proper rehab, to heal it naturally. Best news I've had all week, clearly, as it's my first post. GO SOX.

This is a career altering injury potentially. I'm going to take some time off the site and from sports for a few days, maybe longer. Go Sox.

I mean it's not that cut and dry. There is very little evidence to support the conclusion Hahn was running the club until about 2016-17 when the rebuild started. I've said it many times he should have just resigned if he was being overrode on a full rebuild but I'm happy he stayed. Frankly Hahn is proving he's a good GM now that JR and KW are mostly out of his way.

Should be if the honorary starter doesn't have it up an hour out they forfeit it.

TLR knows more about man management in his mid 70s than some of our posters do, mercy. Better to stay silent...

Every metric has this team as one of baseball's best. Sure things can go wrong, but about 1/6 of the way this club looks pretty loaded. Even the fringe guys are doing enough, often enough to help the club win. At this point, and once again -- it's early, the greatest worry perhaps to have is that a richer club decides to give Hahn the keys this offseason.

Getting the club ready to play: A Tactical decisions in game: F Overall grade: C Better than Rickie. The soft bias of low expectations.

@Sox80 as well, Clearly we trade Gio at the deadline for a King's ransom to keep the dynasty rolling long into the late 2020s! ?

Yea watching the replay now there is some good regression going on with Leury. Grandal and him are at least having better ABs. White Sox took 8 walks, helps having guys like Grandal that will take them even when they aren't hitting for shit.

La Russa might need to fuck around and go Michael, Gio, Lance in the WS. That's a fucking trio.

Paging @knightni and @Texsox and @Balta1701 and all the other mods for a QUICK MERGE like you're pulling onto the Dan Ryan after the game.

Don't look now but the "unstoppable Dodgers" are now half a game ahead of the Sox and 1 up (34 to 33, respectively) in the RD department for best in MLB. The Astros at 33 as well.

TLR does way more good things than Renteria did IMO. He also does about the same amount of stupid things Rickie did, which is a lot to take. The proof will be how they play down the stretch and in the playoffs it seems. Keeping a talented team relaxed will be his job.

the mistake by the lake

I was asleep for most of it. Fill in the details. Great win, bullpen looked awesome.

Indians announcers sound disheartened.

He Gawn! This ball game is ovah!

alright fans get up off your asses this is a good win.

He gawn! Nasty!

Bummer looking good.

Jose's footwork at 1B has improved so much since he was a rookie.
