Me too, but the NL East is a tough division as well

They'll both give the 62 Mets a run for their money.

Hell no, but based on what I've seen so far, they should still lose 100 games. The O's are probably going to be the worst team since the 2003 Tigers. If the O's played in the ALC and the Sox in the ALE, I'd think it would be close. However, a lot of individual players are taking steps forward so the Sox could end up with 70-75 wins.

No shit sherlock, but the results are still bad. The Sox defense is a fucking joke. The bolded is why yesterday was so frustrating.

Yeah, sinkerballers are no bueno. I saw Nova getting absolutely crushed on sinkers in the bottom of the strike zone. Sinkers=Bad. I believe they're 5-10 years behind the rest of baseball in their analytics dept. Don Cooper is a relic. He used to be a great pitching coach, but by 2012ish the game had passed him by. Giolito is a great example, He had a ++ curve when he got here, and Cooper taught him a slider. Now his slider is still a pretty good pitch, but with the way he pitches, his high fastball that he throws by hitters would be better paired with a curve than a slider. Giolito has completely lost the feel for his curveball since learning the slider.

Did you watch yesterday's doubleheader? They're closer to KC Miami and Baltimore than they are to the rest of baseball. They needed a minor miracle just to salvage a split with the O's, and they split their season series. IIRC they've split with KC and Detroit so far as well.

Fry will be fine. Ruiz needs to go. Was surprised by Bummer. He can stay for now. I would have rather Ruiz and Covey go down, because we need to see if Fulmer is anything. Fulmer can be the long man for the rest of the year.

Yeah, 15 years ago. Kenny hasn't made a good move since the 2007-08 offseason. Hahn has been bad for a while. Kenny should have been whacked with the conclusion of the 2009 season. Hahn should have been whacked on 7/1/2016. My gripe is and always has been that the guy that wasted Sale, Quintana, Abreu and Eaton shouldn't have been allowed to rebuild this team.

What does this mean? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI

Not to mention he couldn't put a decent team around Chris Sale, Jose Quintana and Jose Abreu, when Quintana and Abreu were at their peak.

This is the thread to b**** about how bad Hahn is at his job. Rick Hahn Sucks. Anyone could have traded Chris Sale for a haul. https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/video/white-sox-60-ivan-nova-rocked-baltimore-and-adam-engel-robbed

This. So much this. As much as I think Ozzie would be a great manager for this group, the chances are zero.

QFT. But seriously, he burned that bridge and pissed on the ashes. There's no chance that it happens.

Lmfaoooooo

If they didn't choke the 1st game away it would feel much better.

This is the better question. SOX WIN!

^^^^^ I turned it back on and find their failure mildly amusing

No way, Jose. The bullpen is a tire fire of epic proportions

One can only hope.

Not really. It was ye olde swinging bunt.

Those who said Moncada would bunt were only half right.

Rally Engel is a thing? Ew.

This x infinity. THANK YOU
