Chicago White Sox

Bye Magglio!

I will say I’m proudly wearing a Jose Abreu t-shirt that even some random dude at a Jimmy John’s in Nashville complimented earlier today.

Dude is fucking locked in!?!

Abreu!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dreaded leadoff walk for Grandal!

Nice work Gio, let’s get another run here!

You’re assuming a 10 day IL stint will cure his problems, I think we have assume they will be a problem the rest of the way no matter what.

Pull him!

Fully agree

I think he’d better in shorter appearances.

They need to move him to the pen and see how he looks when limited to one inning at a time.

Holy fuck!!!

I FUCKING LOVE LOPEZ!!!

His velocity will go up, but will the fastball command improve? That’s the question...

Probably injured

Lopez looking great so far!!

Here we go...hopefully can put some pressure on the Professor right out of the gate!

Now they will...way to go!

If Leury is basically our for the season (not sure about his status for the post-season), I would definitely consider Brock as a super utility guy to give us a bit more depth.

This is the good karma this thread desperately needed after SouthSider admitted he put profit over our beloved White Sox!

What’s funny is it was our DH & RF spots that killed us last year and we all said “if we could just get two win players at those spots we’d be set next year”. I can’t blame Hahn specifically for Edwin since I was 100% in support of that move and still believe he’ll come around, but to be sitting at -0.2 WAR at that those spots is just sad.

Current wRC+ & fWAR stats for our starters through what should normally be the 1/6 point of the season. Obviously there will some be regression for certain guys (both good & bad), but the fact is Yoan, Timmy, Robert, & Eloy are all legit young stars that we have locked up for the next four to seven years. The “window” has officially fucking opened. Anderson: 204 / 1.2 Moncada: 125 / 1.2 Grandal: 103 / 0.4 Abreu: 141 / 0.7 Jiménez: 145 / 0.8 Encarnacion: 64 / 0.0 Robert: 133 / 1.1 Mazara: 69 / -0.2 Mendick: 97 / 0.3

Agree, but I could never put money against my own team. Winning a few bucks at the expense of my team wouldn’t feel like a win at all to me.

You’re betting against your own team?

It’s a pretty wild thought and too bad it didn’t happen.
