Not even making Mills work. This can easily be a losing series as mills and Hendricks will handle them the same way.

He just dismantled Toronto

Thank God Kimbrel was brought in and Dallas sucked. What ever would Soxtalk be able to b**** about. Crochet looked like crap, Wright sucks, I don't think Garcia got a hit Abreu had a terrible 8th. Kimbrel warmed to come in when it was a four fun lead, Ruiz was not ready. They came back from down 6 it was a great game. Let's start talking about how Grandal needs to be benched for the playoffs because the Dodgers did.

Anybody that is not a SOX fan looks at them and can easily see them hosting a parade. Myself and Soxtalk can't see them holding off Cleveland or maybe even the Tigers.

Bad luck and bad play Saturday gave Tampa that game. Sunday just plain sucked. Other than that, I believe the opposing team got a save in the other 5 losses so they were right there. Some here maybe me a little feared the lead would be 5 after all of this. Well it is 9 or 10. A tough little stretch mid month in September but there are a lot of off days the rest of the way. The starting pitching handled Toronto in Toronto. SOX Win!

What is he supposed to. The bullpen isn't getting it done, there is no magic bullpen arm. Maybe leave Rodon in but in reality with a 9-2 if your bullpen cannot hold the lead you deserve to lose and there is nothing the manager can do about it.

Kopech has had the two worst performances out of the pen. Today and against Cleveland. His last three outings have been horrific. Anyone questioning anything ever with the bullpen is not paying attention. Hopefully they can right the ship but resting the starting staff is taking a toll on the overall team performance.

Stone off all week. He and Farmer don't/didn't travel to Canada.

Perfect time for him to come back. Play two this weekend. One next week. 2 the following weekend See how it feels and ease on through the month.

The team is fine. The talent is there and have the most important thing, starting pitching.

What the fuck is he going to do?

The hitting philosophy of this organization is maddening and has been for years.

Starting pitching has given up 3 runs in 20 innings. While the pen has given up runs the defense sucks. Leury misplayed the line drive then poof game over.....iced by Moncada

Made zero adjustments to robbie Ray after striking out 13 last time.

No fan can ever complain about bullpen usage every guy out there is a crapshoot.

The 8th inning of a game in August and October are vastly different. The trade could be a disaster but until the White Sox season is over there is no evaluating it. Neither of the guys traded for Kimbrel were moving the needle on this season as one is hurt and the other was most likely about to get his locker moved to Charlotte.

I don't do much research and kind of muddle along in life other than the vast amount of energy I put into the Whtie Sox but the thing I picked up on is that while fully vaccinated and wearing a mask I can get COVID but it should be similar to the common cold. I am OK with that.

If Anderson is back tomorrow why not give Hernandez tomorrow off? I suppose they want to load up on LHH but for this game and if so play Hernandez over Mendick.

Berrios handles the Sox rather easily and I am certain there will be no adjustments made to rectify this situation this evening.

What do you consider to be the reason they can continually get shut down by mediocore starting pitching for what seems like two months? Do you really watch this team and believe there is an organizational philosophy in play? They have talent I am not saying they do not. I'm just saying there appears to me to be a lack of planning on how to attack a pitcher.

I said other things and defended my stance. You can disagree and that's fine. I'm not saying they all suck just that I disagree with their daily game plan as I view it. There is a reason the starters against NY and Oakland were not allowed to go deep into games yet a guy like Patino can breeze along with no adjustments as he was a one pitch pitcher.

I'm not saying they suck it's just the same approach across the board that results in wild inconsistencies.

The white sox don't have any of what I consider to be professional hitters. Seems everyone guesses a lot, swinging at anything close and getting themselves out. While the raw numbers can look good a team like Oakland makes a pitcher work and get better results.

This offense straight up sucks?

and a whole lot more strike outs
