The Bullpen
Pallette already had a rough go in the majors for an org that can pull good pitching out of their butts, so he'd be third on that list. Looks like Iriarte has been a little better than Peoples this year (.99 WHIP & 2.16 ERA vs 1.18 WHIP and 2.6 ERA), but both have been real good. Honestly I'd bring them both up.

The Bullpen
Taylor closer, Dominguez later inning guy. They have too many lefties, so drop Eisert from the 40 man and add Ben Peoples from Charlotte. Once Wikelman Gonzalez is back bring him up and replace whoever is doing the worst.

Thank god for Antonacci

Sox @ Tigers 6/21 - 12:40PM
Got to get some offense back. Could have easily won the first game and this one, if not all three. Tigers playing for their season at home and Sox were not up to the task. Oh well, hopefully some home cooking solves this and they can get a couple games on Cleveland.

Yeah 4 last night and 3 today so far are absolutely winnable games. Need to get melton out and get into that bullpen.

Would’ve been nice if the pitching didn’t give up 10

Such a different team on the road.

GT 6/16 Sox @ Yankees 6:05 (CDT)
Just put up 7 runs off him. Leave the bush league stuff to losers like Cole.

At what point do we start to believe?
It's amazing how well the infield is performing. You've got what looks like (in WAR) 5 5 3.5 5 potential across 3B, SS, 2B, 1B. The outfield is vastly improved too. Antonacci is playing like a 3/4 WAR guy. Still waiting to see how Braden holds down RF, but he's obviously who will be out there for a while. Peters is probably playing way over his ability but still - he's a good every day regular right now in CF.

Warm someone up please.

A splitter probably gets him if it's close. He was amped for the fastball.

6/14 GT Sox vs. Dodgers 1:10 (CDT)
I don't think he's nibbling, I just don't think he knows where it's going

Oh good its super wild Dominguez so far this will be stress free!

6/13 GT - White Sox vs. Dodgers (3:10pm CST)
Yeah, this is a REAL tough pitching matchup. Hope they can get into the bullpen quickly.

Sox acquire Nolan Jones
It was a really good team in the first half. They were only a little over .500 in the second half. They were flat-out bad in LF, RF, 2B and DH, especially once the Brian Goodwin magic wore off. They averaged .6 runs less per game in the second half. They only scored 6 total runs in the three games they lost in the ALDS.

- At what point do we start to believe?
It was always gonna take a couple years minimum given the org was a literal smoldering crater when Getz took over. It really looks like he's hiring the right people and building the right infrastructure. Hopefully he can continue to do so to keep this team in the hunt for a long time. - At what point do we start to believe?
