Chicago White Sox

This offense needs to wake the f*** up

Some details on Drew Thorpe’s start from last night: 91.4 MPH AVG velocity over the course of five innings 91.9 MPH AVG velocity in the 2nd & 3rd innings 94 MPH max velocity hit on 33rd pitch (swinging strike for K) 17 of 43 (40%) 4-seamers thrown 92 MPH or above It’s very clear he’s got a bit more juice now than he did before. Wasn’t throwing max effort all the time, so I think we’ll see this continue go up as he continues to build up strength and decides to dial it up more frequently.

Bump with new thread title to facilitate more conversation on this matter

Kay vs. Holmes. Feels like a very winnable game to me. Holmes isn’t very good and the Braves are mediocre against LHP. Braves also just got swept by the Twins and could be pressing a bit. I like our chances tomorrow if we get the good version of Kay. Let’s fucking go!!

Piggy backing dudes wouldn’t be a bad idea. It’s going to be a battle to get guys tot be finish line and Thorpe is as fresh of an arm as we have. He could be a godsend down the stretch.

Hopefully Sunday.

Oh f*** yeah!! Dude is a major league starter if at that velocity.

We’re jumping to way too many conclusions here. Urquidy had 8 strikeouts in his first three innings and then got zero in his next three as he started going through the order again. Definitely a great start but let’s see how does as the league is better prepared to face him.

Got to put one on just to make us all sweat a little

Thorpe

Taylor here is the right call…we need the W.

Two run cushion. Let’s not confuse them 😁

what are you guys watching on? You must be 10 seconds ahead of me.

Braden HAS to get one in here!!!1

I have liked what I have seen. Metrics still don’t love what he’s doing out there, but that be from earlier season performance.

How about a line drive?

Need to get at least one here and obviously two would be ideal

Yeah, I think he will also get better out there with more reps.

What a catch! Antonacci is a better OF than many give him credit for.

JFC

Don’t stop now!!

nice Vargas…f*** them Cubs

Lineup needs to man up and fucking get on the scoreboard ASAP

Eight K’s in three innings ain’t too shabby

Urquidy earning his paycheck so far!!
