Stone not happy with Leury's diving into first

Ball was killed by Sheets. Just bad luck there ?

An article from 2020 on Sox plate discipline: https://www.si.com/mlb/whitesox/features/swing-happy-white-sox-prone-to-exposure

Watching the dumb plays towards the end of this video made me sick to my stomach.

What the hell is a "cheap homer"? Is that what his Oakland teams hit when they were roided up? You take advantage of the park dimensions and conditions whenever you can.

This is such a BAD offensive team.

They forget how to hit in the majors. Team full of AAAA players this year.

How in the world did Alcantara turn on that inside corner fastball like that and hit it out in the face of the wind?

How did that go over the netting behind the plate? Thought about getting tickets for this one. Glad I didn't.

I'll just have to complain to my wife again about how poorly the Sox are playing while the site is down.

I'd switch Machado out for Harper, as right field has killed us even more than 3B (though Moncada is well on his way to making both awful). Otherwise I think this is solid. I would also add: 5) Lacking and/or not recognizing proper depth for the outfield and bullpen

No chance against Bautista so far

This organization is fucking idiotic

Dude Robert can't swing the bat DL him and bring someone up this is criminal

As much as I like Liam trading him might be a smart idea. You’ve got some solid bullpen guys who can take the 9th (Graveman, Reylo), you clear up that salary and maybe get some nice pieces.

12.67 left on base per game in their last 3 games ?

Harrison back to missing cookies and making weak contact

I love Abreu but this should be his last year here. There was maybe one strike in that at-bat.

There goes that lead. Cease's control is really off tonight.

Davis is the kind of guy we'd historically trade to Oakland and then he'd go on to be a solid #3 for like 5 years for them.

I'll say that if Ethan Katz had anything to do with Kopech starting today and Cease being skipped then he should be gone too.

WHY IS VAUGHN SWINGING AT THAT FIRST PITCH?!

Ruiz can't throw strikes either.

That was a strike, but I can understand why he didn't get it
