Luis Robert grade 3 strain/torn Hip Flexor, est. out 12-16 weeks
Vaughn with another hit. Good reason to get Leury a couple of starts in Cincinnati.

Tony was able to put together a line up that was able to muster 4 hits yesterday and already has 3 hits today.

He checked with the HOF before taking the job.. if it could ruin his HOF credentials he admitted he wouldn't have taken the job.

So how do you know this was Yermins first late arrival? I have no problem benching a rookie for being late before his head balloons, but don't be lazy and just insert a guy who was deemed not good enough to be in the line up into the 5 hole.

Jake Lamb batting 5th is genius. I don't want to sound like a very spoiled White Sox fan, I am just so happy the Sox have a HOF baseball person who recognizes the greatness of Lamb.

Luis Robert grade 3 strain/torn Hip Flexor, est. out 12-16 weeks
It seemed apparent nothing was broken. Something was pulled or strained. I just hope he can get back before June.

Luis Robert grade 3 strain/torn Hip Flexor, est. out 12-16 weeks
I don't understand the good news.evenif its mild, which it didn't appear to be, he is going to be out several weeks. He still could miss a couple of months.

This Robert injury has Jason flustered. He doesn't know how many outs there are or what day it is.

I don’t mind Phil, but did he just call Jimbo a spoiled White Sox fan? How can anyone be a spoiled White Sox fan?

Indians @ Sox 5/1--3:00 Central
As bad as Grandal has hit, his OPS is higher than McCann’s. McCann has always had a problem hitting righties. He was great with the Sox, but I don’t think he is a 125-135 game starting catcher. He wasn’t a good framer until last year, but then he had what many are criticizing Grandal about. A problem with catchers interference.

The TLR Manager Thread
If Robin Ventura or Ricky Reneria were making the same decisions Tony has made, no one would be defending them. Someone , maybe Hahn or KW or JR himself needs to tell Tony that especially from the left side Leury isn't a HOF baseball person brother. He isn't legit.

The Andrew Vaughn LF Thread
LaRussa had guys like Ralph Garr and Ron Kittle playing LF. Above average to him is a low bar.

The Andrew Vaughn LF Thread
Vaughn is OK in LF. Eventually, probably next season, he will play more 1B. I would imagine Eloy will be back in LF. Eloy was actually looking a little better defensively the last half of last year. They just have to keep him away from walls and nets. What's really going to be nice is when Vaughn starts hitting for more power. It's coming.

Madrigal on base again. God is he awful.

I thought Cabrera said respect the game?

It’s 14 innings. Players can’t handle that.

NFL 2021 offseason thread
The point being, he ranked them correctly. He thinks Mond is the second or third best QB in this draft.

Luis back, Crochet IL, Mendick 27th man
The way Crochet goes down injured makes me wonder if the Sox sent him down to stretch out to be a starter, would he ever make it back?
-
NFL 2021 offseason thread
I agree with that.

NFL 2021 offseason thread
Chris Simms gets a lot of flack, but he nailed Herbert, nailed Josh Allen, and nailed Mahomes. He really likes Mond. OTOH, he's due for a big miss.

The TLR Manager Thread
Whether Gio spoke to him or not, it was obvious just watching the game the guy was gassed. After the double to Ramos to tie the game, how can anyone defend leaving him out there? Was there even a mound visit? They might have lost the game anyway, but for a guy with a reputation as being the master at running a bullpen, and supposedly having the best or one of the best bullpens in baseball, the Sox sure have blown a lot of games late this season already. Some by the bullpen, and this one by being afraid to use it. I still think Tony is trying to score points with his players by trying to help them accumulate individual numbers. He clearly has used Hendriks just to pad the save total, I think part of his motivation for not getting Gio once they tied it was for Gio's win column.

Grandal Vs. McCann
Grandal hardly played in spring training. You knew he would start slow. JAMES MCCANN SIGNED A $40 MILLION CONTRACT. HE IS GONE AND NOT COMING BACK. It always has amused me that the same people who called the Sox morons for signing him in the first place, when Kevan Smith is on the roster, call them morons for not paying a back up catcher $40 million.

The TLR Manager Thread
Bottom line is most White Sox fans who are old enough to have lived through Tony's first stint with the White Sox , are far more surprised he has this reputation of making teams better. None of mismanagement is a surprise. This was a guy who Tom Paciorek, the mild mannered Wimpy, once said couldn't manage a lemonade stand. He's clearly slowed down. You can tell that in his speech. Call it ageism or whatever, but he shouldn't have been hired, his drinking and driving gave them an out, they didn't take it, and at the end of the year, I can almost guarantee he will call it a day.
