Sox vs St Louis Covids Game 1 8/15 thread, noon start
They need wins over cubs so it makes sense. I thought they would go 3 today and 3 Wednesday with both starters.

Cubs 2020
Carrasco is a high risk individual and two of the starting pitchers decided to put him at risk. That may tear them down.

8/12 Game Thread Sox@ Detroit finale noon start
I don't pay anyone anything but the White Sox may. They don't seem to want to get Collins in there. 4/$40M seems like something they should be able to stomach.

Grandal and McCann are a luxury that the White Sox can afford and cannot afford to lose going forward. Don't go insane but go a little crazy retaining McCann. Both are older guys and neither would be expected to catch more than 100 games year.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER
Come on you cubbies!!!

8/12 Game Thread Sox@ Detroit finale noon start
I think I recall that Jeff Torborg making defensive switches in as early as the 6th inning. Eloy should not be in the game in the 7th if he is not due up in the 8th on the road.

Mendick should have batted second today I said it earlier. Not that Mendick is all that great but Eloy has no business being there.

Lack of organizational awareness to detail that defense is important.

Why is Jimenez batting second and not Mendick? It seems like Renteria is trolling us.

MLB COVID-19 outbreaks: None of as Sept 18
That makes too much sense. A bubble playoff in November would be awesome as opposed to playing outdoors at the end of October. Follow the NHL model. This is the MLB that won't work.

Accountability Starts Monday, August 10th, 2020
Detroit will make the playoffs the Sox won't and Hahn will blame injuries, short season and youth. There are numerous at-bats that are just terrible every game where a pitcher does not throw a strike and gets an out or worse a strike out. Yesterday on a 2-0 count Moncada swung at a ball 3 inches off the inside corner and grounded out weakly to third. I do not know if that is player development or what but we have 7 guys in the lineup daily that do that.

8/10 Sox vs Tigers GT
Will be really fucking sad that detroit makes playoffs over white sox. They should just not have a hitting coach as the shitty approach never changes.

COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
My main current COVID issue is how people cannot grasp the concept of risk mitigation. All any practice is trying to do is limit the spread. Closing a beach because there are 500 people on top of one another is vastly different than a restaurant that is asked to try their best to be socially distant.

White Sox vs Indians 8/9 game thread Sunday Night Baseball
I can't get past how unprepared this organization appears to be to win. Garcia first pitch pop out to second. He should have been hit for when perez came in.

Good think garcia is leading off tonight.

White Sox vs Indians 8/9 game thread Sunday Night Baseball
It is becoming more and more apparent to me that the white sox still believe that everything is done by feel and why organizations like cleveland and minnesote will beat them consistnely. Th white sox will have three guys swing for the fences to end this game in the 10th Heuer to me is a better option than Colome

So who's the next manager?
Watching the Indians and Brewers you see an organizational philosophy at play especially with how a pitching staff is constructed and used, With the White Sox it still seems like a simplistic approach that mirrros baseball in the 70s, I think the game has passed Cooper and Renteria by. The way the Brewers currently use Burnes is how Rodon should have been used this year. Instead you get the cookie cutter Cooper useage. Let the starter go 100 pitches before looking at potential matchups.

8.8.20 GT | Clevelanders @ White Sox | 1:10PM CT
The White Sox offense is to blame. Terrible at bats all game. Bieber may strike out 20 tomorrow while throwing under 100 pitches.

8/6/20 vs. BrewCrew @ 7:10PMCT
I agree with you but in Renteria's defense he should have had 2 out and nobody on in the 5th. Someone should have been up in the pen. Gio is painful to watch pitch. Seems like every inning is 30 minutes and every count goes 3-2 with a WHIP of 2+

Rodon leaves game early, Dunning next up?
Should use an opener for Cease to limit stacking lefties against him.

What a difference a week and 3 days in Kansas City make.

I kept forgetting about Nomar and now I forgot about Anderson. Stone Pony all that lineup needs is Yaz....Mercy.
