  1. That was a comical swing...like the Bugs Bunny cartoons.
  2. Nah. Engel would be it. Wouldn't have mattered anyway. Unless he stole second somehow.
  3. Parkman's stuff guy...future closer if he can command the strike zone.
  4. It's going to be a challenge to keep this losing streak going against KC at home...only AL team with a worse RS/RA allowed differential. The only thing that gets rid of TLR is the media glare of a long long losing streak. The White Sox can easily get new life and recover with a better manager. Nobody can get buried too early in this division.
  5. Looks like Ruiz will be next. Really miss Kelly right now to bridge the gap along with Graveman. Thanks, Hahn!
  6. The Hahn special contract extension...
  7. I said it 100 times and was scoffed at. Talent wins.
  8. Nope not really. Great stuff but just doesn't have the conviction or confidence to consistently execute.
  9. Twins gamble on the $100 million extension to Buxton paying off so far. Can't even feel demoralized at this point. Might as well get LaRussa fired if this is what it takes...
  10. Sigh. Always gets tentative instead of going right after hitters with aggression and confidence.
  11. With Crochet out...your second best option is Tanner Banks. Don't think they will go away from Bummer anytime soon.
  12. What is the percentage of clean innings out of Bummer?
  13. One of the best plays of the year from Urshela. Shades of Corey Koskie.
  14. Anderson with another solid swing but to the wrong part of the ballpark on this day. This feels like a game they give Liam two innings, fwiw...Bummer next apparently.
  15. He might get it if VV and Cueto continue to scuffle...not to mention Keuchel. That said, TLR doesn't seem to like changing bullpen roles once they're established. Mendick every blue moon comes up with swings like that...
  16. 2.85 years, lol. Maybe we need to start a countdown. Sano struggling against fastballs all season long...his major strength career-wise.
  17. Well, at least the real Tim Anderson showed up today. That's the most positive sign. Wow that ball was almost a wind blown double.
  18. Just relying on the bullpen to hold a one run lead doesn't seem like the greatest plan. Stone attempting to give some credit to TLR that he preferred this Lopez match up with the pinch hitter. We shall see.
  19. At least he had a nice swing on that ball pulled down the left field line. Just seem allergic to clutch hits but Giolito at least gave them a fighting chance.
  20. Jermaine Dye and AJ and Carl Everett and Pods and Iguchi weren't in high demand when the Sox picked them up either. That's how you can get excess value rather than overpaying. Jenks? Contreras? 2021 Rodon? Completely given up on by most of MLB front offices...
  21. Well, there's also the quite large basketball player from LSU...Ben Davis.
  22. Well, it can’t get much worse. Only the Royals have a worse RS/RA differential in the AL. -16 to -23. Balt at -12. Chris Archer can’t keep this up, can he? TBD instead of Giolito listed, no Sox lineup posted. Minnesota has theirs up now. Gordon and Urshela the left side of the infield with Arraez at DH and ice cold Sano at 1B.
  23. Well, he should be the most motivated player in baseball next season…
  24. Miguel Cairo is the bench coach. He works along with Jerry Narron, who was bench coach for the Red Sox in 2020.
  25. See, reading comprehension problems… At least 50% of the posters on this board know who he is or are at least familiar with his name and the story about his son turning into one of the better prospects in baseball. Even interns who work in the front offices of Tampa Bay, Oakland, Milwaukee, Houston, LAD, Cleveland, Atlanta, etc., READ and RESEARCH a lot. Obviously, in retrospect, Thomas was the scapegoat for more endemic organizational and player personnel/evaluation issues that are as of today unresolved.
