I can't remember a GM with a worse record for one decade who actually managed to blow up a budding rebuild...heck most fantasy owners could have fared better with the same budget.

LaRoche Melky Bonifacio Beckham and whoever the catcher was...Robertson only somewhat decent move.

Next five years and then traded to a more competitive organization with the ability to hand out a $200~250 million extension.

I honestly would rather have Mark Johnson and Royce Clayton at the bottom of the order. He at least flirted with the Mendoza Line.

Now everyone is a lot more familiar with Pollock's limitations. That outlier 3.0 fWAR with the Dodgers last year certainly isn't carrying over on either side of the ball.

Isn't it THIC or THICC? We could use the Colombian reggaeton artist formerly known as Jose Hard Luck Quintana about right now.

Isn't that the very definition of sports, live unscripted action, see something you've never seen before entertainment? Whatever the Sox are right now it's NOT that. It might be verging on embarrassment by the end of Sunday.

Wow yet another steal against us.

The attitude of the Big 4 Cubans seems to be taking over the team..at least offensively base running fielding-wise. Anderson too. At least he's hitting the ball all over the park recently. Heck Vaughn's managed to be pulled down into the malaise too.

But Hernandez memorably had their number over multiple games. This is no shocker.

No reason to even throw a fastball against the Sox unless way behind in the count and zero confidence in locating off speed stuff. Hernandez ranging from 92-97. (Lol. Cano is outhitting and fielding entire Sox team these last two games.) We still can't begin to judge veteran players.

Sox hitters were under .200 against him and sub 600 OPS over 46 ab's entering this one so wouldn't be a surprise at all regardless of his other starts. Some pitchers just have a team's number.

That's a good question. Which defensive metric would actually pick up on that throw that eventually led to two runs scoring but never reflected in a box score...?
-
5/19 Sox @ Royals | 1:10PM CT | Velasquez vs Hernandez
Somehow we are 4-6 in 5th/sub starts. Covey had what, one win? He had one really great effort against the Indians...but one of the worst W/L records in recent memory.

Just about as expected when you see the call at first overturned. Hunter Dozier entered this series 4/58 life time against Sox...remember that massive collision with Abreu?

So Kopech Keuchel and Cueto (extra day) or Cease (normal rest) this weekend in NY, right? Any indications which way they are leaning after Cease gave up a bunch last time against them?

He must have been reallocated to Katz's staff...
-
5/19 Sox @ Royals | 1:10PM CT | Velasquez vs Hernandez
Well, current Sox hitters are under .200 against him (9/46) lifetime with a sub 600 OPS back when offensive numbers were closer to normal. Has pretty much owned us except for one competitive game...

"Slight" difference in weather conditions and baseball though. Remember the 2020 season started at peak of summer.

Hahn’s 2022 Offseason (So Far)
We might have missed out on LaStella for 2B. SFG front office doesn't make many mistakes. They now have so many LH hitters they can afford to send down Luis Gonzalez when he's hitting .349. "Tommy is one of the better plate appearances in baseball, it's as simple as that," Kapler said. "He has great discipline, fouls pitches off, (is) extremely competitive in the batter's box. Kind of the epitome of what we want our hitters to do: Make a lot of contact, drive the baseball occasionally, draw a walk here and there and keep the line moving, which Tommy does exceptionally well.' Total opposite of the White Sox approach pretty much.

You've heard of hyperbole I'm pretty certain.

5/18 Sox @ Royals | 7:10PM CT
Robert, Anderson, Giolito, Cease, Kopech, Moncada, Lynn (after return), Graveman, Hendriks, Vaughn. That's ten.
