Jorge Lopez is this year's Craig Kimbrel

Davis Martin coming out of nowhere and actually being useful is a nice development. You might have to consider him for the back end of the rotation next year if we cut a lot of payroll.

You just had a feeling the knee issues were gonna f*** with his arm and shoulder.

Better hope Oscar Colas is the s%*#, Yoan regains his talent again, Giolito gets his velocity back, and Eloy stays healthy. Cause next year is probably gonna suck if those guys don't get right.

White Sox pitchers: oh so, throw him breaking pitches in the zone?

Cairo not bunting and us not scoring basically forced Hinch to bunt because they were only playing for 1 run.

I'm fairly convinced that this team would be in first place had Tony stepped away at the ASB.

Yoan with his patented 0-5 after looking like a world beater the day before.

Cairo has the team playing better as a whole. It's not his fault Tony managed the Sox to below .500 for most of the season. They're playing .600 ball under Cairo, which is what most of us expected this year. s%*# happens in baseball, which is why you can't put yourself in this position where you can't afford to lose at all for the last 20 or so games in a season. You're just not gonna win every game in baseball.

Should have walked Reyes to set up a force at home. You'd have to face Baez regardless.

Probably afraid of spiking it.

Liam's error cost us the game and most likely the season.

Now you have to walk Reyes. Sets up the Baez and Liam matchup again.

Liam can't get it by him.

The Astros did it 2 days ago. But they only gave up 1 run.

The Tigers are gonna metaphorically end our season...just sad.

Diekman already pitched. It'll probably be Bummer if it's not Liam.

The one guy I expected to actually do something didn't.

Yeah we ain't scoring.

Regardless of the result here you have to throw Liam in the bottom of the inning.

And that's why you bunt.

I almost want Harrison to bunt here. I think you can depend on Elvis to make contact to get the runner in from 3rd.

I don't think you could have played the matchups better there. We had a bunch of guys with heavy left handed platoon advantages hitting in the 9th. It didn't work out, but the move made sense.

He's the runner on 2nd. You have to pinch run for him if we get there.

He's not real good against Detroit either.
