also, his swing reminds me of TCQ a bit

sign me up also, has Japan always had outdoor stadiums? I always remember japanese baseball being played indoors for some reason, but after looking up some videos of this guy I found a ton of games played outside

Semien just because Scherzer has pitched a lot of innings this year and he's getting older

Funny how the 5 game series (which ended in 4 games) went nearly identical to the regular season series vs the same opponent organizationally, the Sox aren't even in the same league as teams like Houston/TB, and even Boston/NYY, and they never will be because nepotism reigns in Chicago. the one team that cleaned house from top to bottom won the most recent championship, that wasn't a fluke

you're conflating what I want with what will happen

Abreu (and TA) will retire here, these threads are dumb Guys I would look at possibly moving would be Grandal (I didn't know he was this bad defensively) and possibly Eloy or Vaughn, use them to upgrade at spots like RF and SP I'm not saying trade all 3 guys, but I would definitely look at moving one of them if the return was decent

especially after other guys in the clubhouse didn't go the "it's not my call" route, his hands were tied after Abreu vouched for LaRussa

there aren't going to be any updates on contract offers until after the new CBA right?

lmfao what a choke job

not a big NFL fan but just watching these last few bears games with Fields, he definitely looks talented but he also definitely makes some rookie mistakes also that bears O-Line, oof

I'm not going to defend any of those videos, because they just look terrible. But people need to realize the strike zone is a 3-Dimensional space, it isn't an invisible wall that the ball has to pass through. Even when the bugs are 100% completely ironed out, we will start to realize that some of the pitches we have thought for years were one thing, were actually the opposite.

must be nice to have a starting pitcher who isn't a fucking choker

"LOOK AT ME! PAY ATTENTION TO ME!" edit: who bumped this, you assholes still hilarious though

there was little chance that they would have 3 managers in 3 years, I was hoping tho

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Sox part ways with at least one fan favorite player in some kind of creative trade, they aren't going to be bumping up payroll on guys like Scherzer (wouldn't that be fucking awesome?) or even Semien

was it ever reported what was wrong with Toews?

I think Rodon will be okay, he just faded down the stretch due to hitting an innings limit, people expecting him to throw 160 innings with zero issues after last year are dumb, like really

no dude we just don't have enough good players, ignore the fact that all our veteran hitters almost set the record for singles in a series and our best pitchers looked drunk

I don't care who they sign or trade for in the offseason, the Sox are a poorly run org from top to bottom. the talented players we have look unprepared for long stretches and that's a coaching problem, people wanna keep pretending like throwing money at more players will fix this teams issues, it goes so much deeper than just plugging in good players, the coaches have to get the most out of the talent we have. these guys today looked like they haven't faced McCullers 3 times this year already, that is completely unacceptable in 2021 for a fucking playoff team are we getting the best Moncada? how about Kopech, or Jimenez? What about Grandal? How did Giolito perform, up to par? Keuchel? these guys don't respect their coaches at all and it shows

Lol, that would be the most obvious White Sox move, cheap out on another roster spot

Garbage team making garbage offseason moves, SWEET LFG

lmao at getting anything of value for Moncada, look at his contract.

I just want people to lose their jobs because it'll make me feel better, I don't even care who they fire ?

have a game Timmy

as far as bullpen management today, I would've went to Lynn way before Kopech and Crochet, relying on rookies in that situation was about as dumb as it gets
