Glancing at the batting averages and OPS of the Sox lineup might be the most depressing part of my day.

Getting blown out by the Heat without Butler should be a giant wake up call. But probably not to the Bulls FO.

Go look on Savant, his slowest fastball was 91.5. And he was throwing in the low 90s towards the end of the start.

He wasn't throwing nearly as hard this start and got down to as low as 91. I hope it's just a bad start and not his arm already fatiguing from the workload.

So is Crochet already fatigued?

First the double dunk. Now this.

Jimmy probably isn't playing Friday. Caruso also doubtful though. If they can't beat a Butler-less Heat team they aren't gonna compete with the Celtics anyways.

This was Coby's breakout out game to a national audience.

How does a guy of his size only throw 90? You don't necessarily need velocity to be effective, but it definitely puts a huge limit on his ceiling.

The Royals are just feasting on the Sox. Half their wins are against us.

The Sox are last in baseball in homers. 2nd to last in slugging. Last in barrels. 2nd to last in hits, only the Twins have less hits, but they have almost twice the amount of homers. This team can't hit and they have no power. It's the ultimate snooze fest.

The embarrassment is only worth it if there are actual changes that come out of the team being terrible.

The title is clickbait

He just missed that. Nastrini definitely thought he gave up a grand slam when that left the bat.

He doesn't even hit lefties anymore.

That's every game with this team pretty much.

That run is on the ump and Maldonado.

Maldonado is so worried about throwing the guy out at 2nd that he give a s%*# how he catches the pitch.

I would say almost doubling your PPG while maintaining your efficiency is a drastic improvement. He's going to finish top 3 for MIP. There was a good 2 month period where you could argue he should win it, but he's really dropped off since Siakam sat on him.

150 games on the IL, definitely.

He more or less maintained his efficiency while playing 13 more minutes a game. His usage went up 6%. He doubled the amount of shots he took. Teams started to game plan around defending him. He was also close to a 59% TS% before he got hurt. Coby's a streaky player, but there's no doubt he drastically improved this year while playing a much bigger role.

Ayo's actually been better than Coby since Siakam almost broke Coby on a chase down block. Plus I'm sure the minutes are catching up with him. He and DeRozan play more minutes than just about anyone in the NBA.

The Sox are the equivalent of the Wizards or Pistons. What's funny is that those 2 teams have beaten the Bulls 3 times this year.

He was crazy good in the 8th. The 9th looks bad in comparison actually lol

Alright, if I gotta listen to Southside Standup everytime after a win, I'm fine with losing.
