On a side note, I will ALWAYS be a James Baldwin fan.

I'm not putting this at the feet of anyone, but the players (and 2ndly the training staff), at least the part highlighted above. We've never gotten even remotely enough on field time from the guys that were supposed to be the heart of this team on the field.

Kinda says all you need to know about this "core", right there.

I don't like Elvis and all, but what a stupid PH move there, knowing what it would result in. And Andrus is one of the few guys who is actually hitting, now that the season is long over.

Nothing like getting out-homered at home, against the worst team in baseball.

IBB for Colas? Pretty sure no one called that....ever in 2023.

Sad that I hate even seeing him hit, what a turnaround from the excitement early on.

Beni tied with Yoan in HRs, and almost twice as many RBIs. End the Moncada experiment.

Yep, ordered one to be delivered here. Buehrle will always be a guy I'm a big fan of, and that era of the Sox in general.

Colas isn't playing? Well, no reason to watch this one on Gameday, for me.

Thanks for the links. That last part made me go look at Lance Lynn's numbers in LA....if there isn't a clear sign of the difference between 2 organizations, analytically and development wise, I don't know what is.

This feels familiar.

I would have been fine with that, too. But...you don't put in Grandal there....this isn't 2021.

Grandal over Moncada as the PHer there?

My guy did it....officially passed TA in OPS, as a 1st year 24 year old rookie. Hah, GG Timmy.

1 more loss after today, to hit that magical 30 games under. Grifol staying? He clearly knows how to manage a bullpen. 40 pitches for Santos, first season up. 4d Chess here.

LOL... 0-2, hit him. What a mess someone has to fix.

Well, this is less than good, if you're still rooting for any Sox wins, that is.

5 stolen bases so far for Seattle. No reason to try and control that part of the game or anything.

OPS TA - 573 Colas - 569 He's going to catch and pass our star short stop.

So glad we didn't bother to trade Bummer, such a needed core performer.

.226/4/22, 614 OPS

Bob seriously...stfu about that.

There's embarrassing, and then there is the Chicago White Sox... https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2023/08/22/mariners-white-sox-luis-castillo-47-straight-fastballs-fans-roast-chicago "The Chicago White Sox have had a dreadful season and they might have hit rock bottom at home Monday night when Mariners ace Luis Castillo did something we’ve never seen before at the major league level - he threw the same pitch 47 times in a row."
