Chicago White Sox

One hit in seven innings against the Orioles is beyond fucking embarrassing.

I hate Tony with all of my heart

As other have alluded to, the Sox can’t “right the ship” when they start five major league caliber hitters and only have two quality bullpen arms available on a given night. Getting mostly healthy is therefore critical, but the odds of everyone coming back for this amazing 1983 stretch run is not happening. Reinforcements will be needed. It’s really that simple. At a bare minimum, go get someone like Tyler Naquin to factor into the RF mix and a couple of bullpen arms. If a more impactful LH bat becomes available then great, but we can’t ignore this need altogether. This idea we’ll have too many hitters is insane when we’re losing three players once certain nights. Below is the appropriate level of depth we’ll need to overcome this churn. Anderson, SS Vaughn, DH Robert, CF Abreu, 1B Naquin, RF* Pollock / Eloy, LF Grandal, C* Yoan* / Burger, 3B Sosa, 2B

This team sucks right now

Bennetti trying to will a double play here

He almost collided into his precious Leury so I’d expect Sosa to ride some serious pine this weekend.

Nice at-bat kid!

?

Leury Legend time!

Just need four here…easy peazy.

This is fun.

Zavala HBP. Legend reaches on a dropped third strike. Sosa three run blast. Make it happen baseball gods!

Yeah, throw in the Tony factor and we’re really in trouble.

Zavala, Garcia, & Sosa coming up!

That being said, hopefully Hahn is watching this game to understand why it never made sense to trot out two 1B in the outfield.

I still remember Carlos Lee hitting a HR in his first major league at-bat. Would be awesome for Sosa to do the same.

You mean for the last two weeks?

This season has been brutal to watch, but I take a tiny bit of semblance over the people who argue managers don’t matter being wrong. This team is tied for the division lead with any competent manager despite all the injuries. It’s almost incomprehensible how bad Tony has been this year.

Hard to string to together runs when you only have five major league hitters in your lineup.

Lol

Nothing better than Leury Legend & Big Energy back to back

Promote this kid!

I’ve never seen a baseball club with a team-wide outbreak of “sore legs” before

Fuck this old man. Should have just called up Yogurt if it was going to be a bit role.

Oh boy, hard to blame that on him bulking up.
