Chicago White Sox

Nope, it’s never fair to ignore that Hamilton has been one of the worst hitters in baseball over the past half decade just because you’re mad Yermin hit a HR on a 3-0 count while up big.

100% fair game...go all out bro. Also fair to question how anyone could actually propose using Billy Hamilton at DH.

Get us a win!

Yup, especially since he has options. Marshall is going to get more rope before they formally cut bait.

I simply said the Sox should try Burger at 2B in AAA and you told me that his agent and the Players Union would lose their shit over a guy coming back from injury being asked to play a different position.

Oh shit, that’s what I asked them to do, but caulfield said it would cause mass outrage!

We need to give Kopech more innings, not less. IMO, adding another starter doesn’t make much sense.

Pretty clear he reads Soxtalk and is likely one of us Isn’t @chitownsportsfan from Seattle? ?

Yeah, I think they resign Lynn and let Rodon go. If QOs still exist in the new CBA then I see them offering Rodon that, but he only returns if he’s willing to accept it. Ultimately that means you have a rotation of Lynn, Giolito, Cease, Kopech, & Keuchel next year with Crochet hopefully moving into a swingman role. If all works well, Garrett would replace Dallas in 2023.

You’d want to trade a cheap 26 year old 4+ win pitcher for prospects in the middle of our competitor window?

Well at least we’ve confirmed he’s a fraud, if we hadn’t already. I still think Escobar ends up on the Sox though.

Good defender at 2B plus the ability to hit HRs against RHP is very useful. Again, ZiPS may be high on Mendick, but I’m not sure that’s a risk worth taking. His offense cratered last year when exposed to regular playing time.

Escobar in the lineup for the D-Backs tonight Looks like Cishek was wrong again!

They address completely different needs though. Personally I think we should be looking to solve both problems as I still think Mendick gets exposed with regular playing time.

I fucking love Grandal!

Maybe not? ?

Pinch run Engel for Vaughn! He can handle 90 fucking feet!

Oh god the shadows are going to get us

Oh god...figured something crazy must have happened when the thread size blew up to 34 pages.

What in the fuck happened in this game? It was 7-2 before I jumped on a call and now we’re in extras??

100%

Everyone’s favorite insider is baaaaack!

Not sure what the deal is there, but he’s played mostly at DH which is obviously not ideal. Hopefully they start giving him more starts at 3B soon.

Who would have guessed on June 15th that Giolito would have a 3.81 ERA and that it would be the worst on the team.

Ramos is studly. Love the mix of power and plate disciple at such a young age. Meanwhile, Delgado had three errors on the night.
