Can we just have an opener for Giolito from now on?

You can't control hits like that, but he had HORRIBLE command which he can control. That inning is on him.

This first inning nonsense has to stop.

Wainright looks fine

Gio with no command again

They didn't make the postseason last year, and they were a LOT better in 2016-2018 than they are now.

Lindor has been terrible so far and has the 5th highest batting average on their team hitting .227. Third highest slugging percentage at .387. Only three hitters on that team have a positive WAR so far. Jose Ramirez is the only player with an OPS above .800. They've scored the second fewest runs in baseball at 62. That is a BAD offense. Even if Lindor and Santana were hitting they only have three or four good hitters. Domingo Santana hasn't been good since 2017. Reyes was a part time player for a bad San Diego team. I don't think they're going to carry a 2.57 team ERA for the rest of the year so they'd better start hitting - to only be 10-9 while giving up ~2.5 runs a game is bad.

We played them poorly but that is not a good team beyond Beiber/Plesac.

Abreu seems to be swinging at everything right now

McCann DEFINITELY figured something out last year. He's just been great.

Strikeouts are not homeruns come on now

Let's just hit homers all game.

Tim Anderson has become such a good player.

This is SO much better. I'm sure what Keuchel said helped a lot but Timmy coming back is so great. I didn't realize how much we need him until he was out.

There's the Carson Fulmer we know and love.

That was a GREAT at-bat by Eloy.

Moncada doesn't look right.

Could be. I'd assume more than one player, though.

I wonder who he's talking about? Abreu? Grandal? Moncada? Eloy? Leury? Someone else? This is Grandal's game. Quite a few said he would frustrate some people when he was signed.

Good for Keuchel. He knows what winning teams look like.

Hopefully they turn it around tomorrow. Encouraging seeing Eloy hit the ball hard a bunch. Needs to get the ball in the air more though. If he starts hitting hopefully that’s the catalyst. Otherwise, woof. This was a stinker.

The White Sox won 99 games and went 11-1 in the postseason in 2005 and we thought they were gonna blow it that year for sure. They looked pretty bad after the all star break. Also, check message boards for any team that won 100 last year. Guarantee you'll see the same kinds of posts we're seeing right now after 17 games.

Everything to the warning track lately.

I was wondering how Abreu hit that high fastball on the ground and then bam! He's hurt.

They're pressing right now.
