3 lefties now face Colome instead of three righties......seems like a decent plan after seeing how 4--6 in the lineup fared last night.

At some point Keuchel needs to be trusted to throw 100 pitches especially if you know the next day is a bullpen day. The Twins suck and Keuchel should be able to pitch 6 innings and 100 pitches against them. The Twins bullpen aced the Sox the last two days that is the issue.

1-3 in the lineup are 2-12 with 8 Ks any further analysis of this game is worthless that is where it starts and ends Offense sucked the last two days. Kopech hasn't been lights out this month to warrant the weeping and gnashing of teeth over him not coming in for the 6th and now it looks like Kimbrel and Hendricks will pitch the 8th and 9th Every issue with this team all season is the lack of offensive consistency and not the manager.

Keep him out until September 1 and then pitch him 3 times in September.

Oddly on the southside of the city we didn't even get rain or wind.

It's a lot easier to pitch when there are zero expectations

The cubs have little base to build on from the trades. They have no core of Moncada, Kopech, Robert, Cease, Dunning, Jimenez, Giolito, Anderson, Abreu, etc. on which to build. Soon after the rebuild was declared you could squint and see potential with the Sox. What is there with the cubs? Madrigal and Armstrong?????

That was my point

Real sound game. Pitching was insane. Offense needs to improve as it's taxing the pen.

As much as we can criticize bullpen usage. This offense sucking does not allow to use Kopech Kimbrel Hendricks or Bummer if losing. Use any of them Thursday when losing and we got problems yesterday and today as we will have tomorrow.

The splits warrant this offensively. Defensively.......I hope they strike out a lot of guys.

That is the most cost runs I have ever seen on that site. Holy crap.

Go all left handed as much as possible Goodwin in center Sheets in right Lamb in left Moncada at third Garcia at short Hernandez at second Collins catch Terrible defense but strike everyone out

He is worthless right now

Which I'm guessing his father reminds him to do

For some odd reason I thought Sheets would do that.

I like this match up for sheets

Goodwin is something

Tempera but they will go with Crochet.

Of the 3 Abreu is tolerable. Anderson and Moncada are just bad.

Said yesterday in game thread felt like Kimbrel would blow it at Wrigley just because that's how it's going. At some point the inability of Moncada Abreu and Anderson to produce will need to be addressed.

Yoan and Anderson are not a threat currently.

Left side of the White Sox defense is the worst part of this team right now. Neither has a chance at the plate. Thankfully their defense is pretty good.

The lack of offense is not on Tony. Seby didn't bunt today, how'd that turn out?
