Chicago White Sox

Why not Burger here??

Need a jack here

Look, if Tony is trying to rest guys who are otherwise are healthy then he should be ridiculed, but Lopez pitched two yesterday and Kelly might be limited at the moment. I don’t normally defend Tony as I think he’s an abomination, but this is likely more of a roster problem than a usage problem IMO.

Ruiz is bad though

Who though? If Kelly & Lopez are unavailable and Graveman is being saved for the 9th, I’m not sure what better options are available. Trust me, it sucks having those kids out there, but not convinced that Ruiz is any better.

Well sure, but he’s less at fault tonight is my point

Honestly, can’t blame Tony or the bullpen for this one. 13 LOB, a base-running miscue, and blowing a catchable ball are the culprits tonight.

And there goes the lead!

Tim should of had that…fuck fuck fuck

FUCK!

Not good

JFC

Do not walk him!!!

I’m guessing after the All Star break

There goes 50% of our lead

Just get to the fucking playoffs so this rotation has a shot.

Is Stone Pony talking about the Sox or the Blue Jays?

Who would play RF every other game then?

2-0!

JFC…why do we continue to squander these situations

Fully agree. The same applies to healthy Grandal. Yes those two probably get the most hate in game-threads.

It’s unfortunate the extension well dried up before we could have locked up Cease or Kopech.

Yeah, unfortunately Yoan has two things going against him. He doesn’t play the game with passion (which who cares) and has undelivered on his potential despite offering much needed OBP and being a 4 win guy in the past. Can’t really defend him this year, although it’s painfully obvious he’s been hurt all year.

Yup, fat, unathletic Jake Burger is an embarrassment to Major League Baseball players with that career 122 wRC+ and 0.8 over 203 plate appearances. Meanwhile, that Kelenic kid continues to get regular updates in his own dedicated thread despite a career 69 wRC+ and -0.4 over 473 plate appearances. ?

Sure, but he’s barely had any development time and is being forced to play 3B at the major league level because Moncada can’t stay healthy. I get the errors are frustrating, but I’d take my chances on him as the regular 3B any day of the week of Mendick if Moncada were out an extended period of time.
