    In the starting lineup and hitting 7th as a DH vs. Skubal…trying to help out Rodon offensively.

    Eloy can’t even hit in AAA. Hard to imagine any teams outside of Top 6-8 payroll ones that could assume that contract risk for whatever remaining upside he has offensively.

    Montas, Q, Rodon and Pilkington all starting tonight. One thing we do pretty well besides stealing bases is ending up losing players with little to nothing to show for it. Q obviously being one of the rare exceptions. But now we’re running the very same risk with Giolito…the Twins dealt Nelson Cruz for their current young ace in Joe Ryan (Abreu deal would be the equivalent) and sold high on Berrios while managing to avoid a bad contract extension and investing that money into Buxton/Correa. They got Sanchez/Urshela back for another contract they wanted to offload in Donaldson. As it stands today, German Marquez and Berrios are the only qualified MLB starters with over 5.00 ERA’s. Berrios is at 5.86, in fact. Giolito is just a couple innings from qualifying to be third worst, although he got screwed by his defense last night. But the odds of Rick Hahn pulling off a similar set of moves as the Twins…about the same as Jackson State making it into the BCS or whatever they’re calling it these days.

    At least the diehard prospect fans had something to be excited about for roughly one week… And now there’s another player we can monitor in the future to see how they bungle his development. He’s not going to be the next Marcus Semien, but leave it to the Sox to keep playing the latest version of Jimmy Rollins while blocking their prospects and still simultaneously not managing to compete or entertain either. Well, I guess we did have two consecutive games of high stepping fun.

    https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/michael-kopech-17709/ You mean we have him for three more seasons…end of 2025. Where are you getting 2030?

    Would love to have their "problems."

    Robert didn’t butcher that play…he just doesn’t get along with walls and pulled up. And the outfield did make a play that should have eventually resulted in a runner being cut down at home. Zavala didn’t make that play, and cost another on the basepaths as it should have been 1st and 2nd, no outs, one run in already.

    What division could they realistically compete in? The four East and West divisions would not be any better because we can at least run much bigger payrolls than the Twins and Guardians, and have a much larger t.v. contract by far. In the AL East, NL East or NL West the Sox would solidly be fourth place teams and already contemplating a fire sale at the deadline.

    Zavala and Sheets and Robert at only 85-90% and that’s your ballgame. Seby cost the team arguably two runs all by himself in the span of just an inning or two. 6 1/2 and 3 1/2 back feels even more because we haven’t shown any confidence in beating the two frontrunners yet. If Zaidi and Kapler really want to rub things in, he will start Rodon on Sunday on normal rest, instead of DeSclafini, who has given up something like 21 runs his last 19 IP. Even the Giants made a mistake with that extension and letting Gausman go.

    Still a game I guess...albeit sense of doom hanging over it.
  12. caulfield12
    Fell out when the glove hit the bag...momentum carried glove there.
  13. caulfield12
    If Robert never returns to 100% this franchise is really doomed. How does that ball get knocked out of a veteran's glove? Bad throw there too.
  14. caulfield12
    Ward at least has been over .300 all season.
  15. caulfield12
    Do we ever manage to catch those throws at home plate AND make a successful tag without losing the ball? Seems like something they might want to practice, maybe.
  16. caulfield12
    Robert doesn't have that extra gear now and scared off a bit by Leury.
  17. caulfield12
    Should at least wait for the 8th for the pen implosion in order to keep everyone up another thirty minutes.
  18. caulfield12
    Last year in Anaheim relief nightmares returning in full force...
  19. caulfield12
    Would have helped to have a 4-2 lead about now...
  20. caulfield12
    Burger Haseley McGuire on bench. No reason he shouldn't be in RF now.
  21. caulfield12
    Doubt it's Burger...they still need his pop.
  22. caulfield12
    Have to score two runs there...at a minimum.
  23. caulfield12
    not even Menechino can exert that much influence so quickly lol
  24. caulfield12
    Sosa 1/12 is going to get him benched by TLR rules.
  25. caulfield12
    Where was Zavala going? Runner from first wasn't going to get to third no matter what.
