I would never have guessed this team would be boring. But it's as boring as can be.

It’s either 43 days of service time or 1 day, I can’t remember, but it doesn’t matter with Mendick, he qualifies for lifetime healthcare.

These guys are bigger and stronger than ever, and they seem to get hurt more in every sport than ever as well John Kruk was right. You can’t pull fat.

Mendick said his goal is to be ready for spring training. Surgery isn’t set yet, but it’s happening.

Yeah but Mendick is clearly out 60 days. Why not just put him on it? Maybe there is some insurance or something that kicks in when a guy goes on it, maybe a longer rehab assignment, I have no idea, because it seems pretty unnecessary.

Big Energy actually had a nice series against Toronto. And Tony loves Leury although with Engel out he may see mor time in the OF. I dont know what to make of Sosa. Wasn't very highly thought of, but not many White Sox, especially middle infielders put up the numbers he put up in Birmingham. Maybe they finally developed someone.

My question would be why place Eloy on the 60 day when Mendick is clearly out for the season? Is there something where he can't be placed on it after he is eligible to be reinstated?

This is interesting. I’ve probably caught between 20-25 balls during my time. Once , 4 consecutive games. I haven’t got one since pre Covid, but I have got them at Guaranteed Rate, Minneapolis and Wrigley, and the balls the Sox used were muddier by a pretty large margin.

Between HS varsity, college and pro ball, Crochet has a little less than 300 innings under his belt, and arm issues at least 3 times, one surgery. Anyone who thinks he qill be a quality starter are way too high. He probably misses most of next season. Just hope he's not one who comes back and sucks. A lockdown lefty reliever is still a win at his draft slot.

Same for LH starters throwing 95. It's his motion that screws people up.

130 IP in 3 years of college with 13 starts. Already with several arm issues. What makes anyone think he could possibly hold up as a MLB starter?

It seems when he is struggling, he doesn't get his front foot down in time.

And thats why Tony is a HOF baseball person.

Probably didn't make a difference, but it could have, and for what? Do the White Sox believe hammys are 2 day injuries? If they do, they are wackadoos.

It took way longer than it should, but they made the right call.

They hold out the hope for Moncada probably because Hahn failed to pick up a LH impact bat. It was needed when Moncada and Grandal were healthy but theycheaped it out and went with Sheets. RH really had an horrific offseason.

It's almost as if the team who says it's WS or bust, is trying to save money by constantly playing short and not calling up a minimum wage guy.

Especially when they know Moncada tends to struggle when he's not near 100 %. If they play him in a couple of days is there anyone except the White Sox thinking he won't be favoring it, and won't either suck or hurt it worse? If I'm JR I would sit the strength and conditioning guys, the training staff and KW and RH down and tell them if Moncada doesn't go on the IL, but has a another issue or a continuing issue with the same hammy, heads are rolling g. He would be ILd in 10 seconds.

Hair bun had his knee drained. There was an injury there.

It's silly. Moncada is hurt and unavailable, yet they would rather play short for at least a week so they could possibly bring him back before 10 days. Just do the inevitable and IL him.

Sox got down to 13 pitchers last week. So Moncada goes on DL or Harrison gets DFAd or Haseley goes back to Charlotte.

Moncada will be put on the IL most lik6.

Big Energy makes way too many plate appearances when the Sox absolutely need something from the at bat.

The Astros own broadcasts aren't as Homer as this one.

These 92 mph heaters are concerning me. Although no one has hit him hard yet.
