Yesterday and today aren't close games

Robert is no a number 2 hitter. Grifol has had a real bad start.

Welp this game is a mirror image of yesterday.

He is the new Leury.

Robert waving at balls a foot outside and in the dirt are worse but that's why they will continue to struggle

Maybe they should lay off balls they cannot hit before someone breaks a leg.

The white sox swing at way too may pitches they have zero chance of hitting and.....well.....spring training bullpen means nothing.

My guess is that's where the animosity starts from. They have to pay for the replacement.

No reason to throw him a strike.

3/31 GT: Sox @ Astros (Lynn v Javier) 7PM, NBCSN
Grandal is a better LHH without the shift. Zavala should only start against LHP

3/30 OPENING DAY GT: Sox @ Astros (Cease v Valdez) 6PM ESPN
In that spot if he does, Alvarez is on first if he swings with a drop third strike. As Bart Simpson likes to day, damned if you do, damned if you don't if he bounces it nad gets the swing. See Bummer, Aaron

Leury Garcia released
I could see him being a minor league instructor within the next month.

I was thinking Correa, Springer, Altuve and Brantly but didn't dig too deep. I know Correa and Springer were gone last year.

Opening Day Winner!
The pitch clock gets Cease out of his own head. He has no choice but to focus on the next pitch. Hopefully Kopech is the same. The relay was perfect on Moncada. Considering nobody tried last year, I liked the Robert infield single and Yoan trying to stretch an E3 groundout into a triple. Bummer needs to figure his s%*# out quick. Lopez needs to not be cute. I hated the ESPN crew. You'd think with the Perez/Grifol backstory and coffee in cars the Sox would have garnered a little more respect. That being said I agreed with the sentiment that Lopez needed to make them score two runs off of well placed 100 MPH heat and his heat was well placed. Bobby Jenks was unhittable because he had the amazing yellow hammer but his 100 was straight and over the plate too often. My daily hate of the SCORE was that dumbass Haugh was comparing Stroman's game to Cease. He is an idiot.

This Astros lineup this evening will be much different than the one that handed Lynn his lunch in the past.

Zero offense and shitty bullpen maybe Tony wasn't the issue.

Romy over Eloy is the best thing about that. A tough leftie is exactly when you want to sit Colas.

2023 Spring Training Thread
As soon as Harper comes back he is gone.

Happy Opening Day Fellas
Are you going to name him 7 ?...oddly enough that's Seinfeld Mickey Mantle reference but is relevant to the current White Sox I just want to not be angry every day when it comes to the White Sox

Roster Cuts Thread
I love that his mom was happy and then states something along the line of you better work hard to stay there. Keep the man grounded.

Leury Garcia released
Leury became one of those guys that LaRussa inexplicably fell in love with. Before senility came into question, it used to work itself out.

Hawk did not retire
Hawk was an egomaniac and narcissist. How could a person come back to work for a team after destroying an organization. In the early 80's the depth of baseball knowledge in that organization was absolutely insane. Hawk blew that up and yet JR hired him back. That being said he was a great announcer up until the final few years. I was at a fundraiser where he was last year and he did not seem very healthy or coherent. He was not broadcasting at the end like Vin Scully and his time had come. My guess is he was pushed out by Brooks. JR and Hawk seemed to be pals from way back and now Hawk is pinning his ending on Brooks and it's warping his view of the organization. Hawk and AJ are very tight. If Hawk's beliefs were grounded in rationale thoughts, I am not certain AJ would still as involved with the White Sox. Pretty sure AJ replaces Stone when the time comes. When it comes to the White Sox and JR and KW, there seems to be void at the top similar to the Bears until recently.
