  1. The ineptitude hopefully is capped at trying to start a Remi and Beni poster night promo.
  2. Merkin surely will...he defers to Hahn more than Benetti to Stoney and even Beckham.
  3. Basically every player on CLE last year and on Cincy now. Btw, whoever said Sox will acquire Salvador Perez...he's likely ticketed for the Rays.
  4. The broadcast with Beckham and radio with McKnight for Kasper is about as second rate as the team's play.
  5. The runner was already long gone...not that he was going to have a play at third, but it should have been close at least if he understood the situation right off the bat, instead of analyzing midstream.
  6. You have to be an 850-900 ops strong side hitter to have any value ... since zero is coming on the defensive side.
  7. Has Sheets ever looked at the scouting reports that some of the A's can run pretty darned well? A's announcers blaming problems on the "sun field" lol.
  8. And then who do you start in the second half? He gives you innings and relatively suppresses home at least. Grandal getting picked apart by A's stolen base machine. Why in God's name is Sheets double pumping with that throw???
  9. Merrifield was and is ten times the base stealer...at least at the big league level. XB machine in his prime.
  10. A's announcers simply can't believe Benintendi highest paid player in franchise history...naming all those more famous Sox names from Thomas/Ventura onwards.
  11. Rooker and Outman reigning in the OPS standings lasted about as long as Kelenic.
  12. Sound a lot like Brian Anderson, minus the defense.
  13. Gordon...you pretty much had trouble hitting in ANY situation...let alone with the late afternoon shadows.
  14. https://www.tokyo-dome.co.jp/en/tourists/dome/events.html Doing some scouting lol. Does anyone want to recommend Tokyo Dome games between July 2nd and July 11th... Really wanted to see Roki Sasaki but pretty sure he plays for Orix (or at least a team outside immediate Tokyo area.) Am also going to attempt to make it to the Ichiro Suzuki museum in his boyhood home that his parents used to run but not sure if it's still in operation. I know there's at least 1-2 SoxTalk JPL experts! Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
  15. Might as well bring back that once highly touted Astros 1B again...we can never have enough of those.
  16. 5-14 0-7 43-39 One run games Extra Innings Pythagorean/Expected They’re done. Trade Hader, Soto, Wacha, Snell…listen on everyone else.
  17. https://www.mlb.com/video/seth-lugo-in-play-out-s-to-elly-de-la-cruz-uyglqv?cp=MIXED&p=0&q=PlayerId %3D [665487] Order By Timestamp DESC Tatis Jr. nabs de la Cruz trying to stretch single into a double
  18. Bieber, Snell, Nola, Urias, Giolito...none of those guys are sure things, but almost all of them will get massive contracts as the top FA pitchers on the market. Zero chance any of those guys are getting paid by the White Sox. Not even going to waste time considering Shohei.
  19. One thing is for sure. Had we kept both Rodon and now given Giolito the Jose Berrios extension...the team might actually be WORSE off. Pretty doubtful they would've won the division last year even with a healthy Rodon...and it certainly would have prevented spending on Benintendi too, but the starting lineup would even be worse. You have to produce your own cost-controlled starting pitching...see Cleveland, who could deal pending FA Bieber and still compete if McKenzie could come back. They have the youngest team in badeball this year as well.
