DP ball here from Vaughn?

Anderson not hustling at all out of the box deserves a benching but Grifol probably refuses to put Romy out there.

Apparently Grandal was in original line up... then they decided to hold him off until Tuesday with the off day.

Borchard McGwire Pasqua some of the longest bombs hit there that stand out, AJ. Referencing Alvarez blast last night.

Garden snake of ennui.

Made that one an adventure Gavin.

They did at least reference how much prep time Vaughn and Robert have spent working on hitting off speed pitches... particularly sliders off the plate with Robert.

Terrible with RISP. Had the perfect first pitch FB and let I got go by. Yet again, blown opportunities.

White Sox defense out there... could be an error but scorer won't ever make that call at home.

No consideration for advancing the runner of course... that's what KC specialized in 2014-2015, Grifol.

Now Moncada can't even hit right-handed according to the broadcast?... well guess that wasn't usually his strong side regardless.

Moncada's day-glo neon green is at least resulting in solid defense at third base. But Burger had been surprisingly solid for his last 2-3 weeks before the injury.

Of all games to lose AJ...nobody would have predicted Paul Byrd over Contreras with the run Jose was on at that point.

Anderson costing himself $50-75 million already in an extension contract after next season unless something dramatically changes with Tim's new organization.

The idea that a 5/36 hitter on the season with a .333 ops is the best minor league option available for the middle infield is beyond laughable.

Rays have lost momentum finally with Springs/Rasmussen out for the year and Glasnow suffering a setback in his recovery…other AL East teams are all feeling they have a shot now with Yankees taking down their pen over two consecutive games…including a blown 6-0 lead today at the Stadium.

Isn’t their play this season the same, anti-Sox? What could be more of a turnoff for fans?

They clearly need up the middle star talent... SS/2B, catcher, a CFer that can play any of three positions and starting pitching, starting pitching, starting pitching.

Meanwhile, Luis Robert continues to be far and away the most valuable position player on the team... and the only one with really decent OPS numbers.

Unless they're picks like McDowell Ventura Thomas and Alex Fernandez...Sale/Crochet. Even Vaughn, Fulmer, Collins and Madrigal spent comparatively little or less time in the minors. Same with Gordon Beckham. (But those were capped ceiling collegiate players and not raw high school or JC athletes like Courtney Hawkins and Tim Anderson.)

Isn't that what was said about Torkelson, too?

Would rather have Juan Pierre or Pods... they added a little flair and basic joy for playing the game despite their limitations. Heck, Alejandro DeAza would be better and was one of the best bargain bin picks up by the Sox. Benintendi seems no happier than AJ Pollock last season.

So depressing for Remillard... especially after the false flag puff piece making it look like they perceived him as a legit option internally. Guess you can't do much worse than April Romy this time around.

The problem is you can't just make prospects appear out of thin air without trading early in the season. Too many poor drafts and lack of sound talent evaluation in 2018/19/20. 2021 and the previous year should be filling up the BIRM roster by now along with intl. signings. Will take a while for Mike Shirley draft methods to show full results.

Just listening to Levine complain about White Sox attendance after their abysmal season riddled with a complete breakdown in fundamentals last year makes one's blood boil. He wasn't even accurate about the 2022 attendance numbers...off by over 100,000. Then comparing with the Cubs? Any fans who purchased season tickets again after last year should be considered super fans and something just short of heroic/courageous to maintain any degree of optimism in the face of this type of systemic failure with no plan or clue how to reverse the situation...not even the most outspoken critics of Sox fans from post 2006 through 2019 could blame the fans these past two years. All the blame has to go on JR KW Hahn Getz and the players themselves. Period.
