Chicago White Sox

Feels like we have no advanced scouting and rely solely on the talent of our players to figure shit out.

This is one of those games where it feels like we’re losing by five even though we’re up 1-0.

You think a guy who batted .280 in AAA has a 20-30 grade hit tool? This Collins hate is really getting out of control.

Moncada is my fucking hero!!

Come the fuck on Cease

It’s a relevant point, but fuck Pnoles.

Exactly.

Thank god we got one at least.

We don’t want him in Nashville ?, but yes they are still the Sounds. That being said, really hope we land an expansion franchise here so there is some hope of the Sox coming to town at some point.

Lol...yes I agree, he’s both an awful tactical & strategic manager. He may very well be great in the clubhouse, which has value, but damn he does some dumb fucking stuff.

I really don’t get benching Grandal tonight. This is basically a Sunday lineup to kick off a series against a tough divisional opponent and coming off two ugly losses. I’m sorry, but Renteria is a truly awful tactical manager.

Didn’t expect what?

In regards to Cespedes, what I mean is he’s advanced enough that you might only need a one year stop-gap (such as Mazara). If we don’t sign Cespedes and don’t have that clear long-term option for RF, then it’s much easier to support signing a bigger name RF. As for the bullpen, the goal should be to have plenty of options and let the best guys win. We saw it this year with Heuer and I think Johnson basically leaps Cordero, etc. to grab a spot. All that being said, I think we need one more high-end guy to pair with Bummer & Heurer. That doesn’t have be Giles, but I chose him due to stuff and age. For the rotation, we definitely need another TOR type to pair with Giolito. We can’t waste prime years of our young positional core why we wait for Cease or Kopech step up. If we’re unable to sign someone (I chose Bauer due to his stated interest to do one-year deals), then we might have to trade for one.

I think next offseason we’ll sign one starter and one reliever. I’m not yet convinced they will add a RF or simply give Mazara another look (that will depend on how he plays down the stretch and whether or not we sign the younger Cespedes). Regardless, here’s how I’d like to see things shake out: Robert, CF Moncada, 3B# Jimenez, LF Abreu, DH Grandal, C# Vaughn, 1B Anderson, SS Mazara, RF* Madrigal, 2B IF: Mendick OF: Engel UT: Garcia# BC: Collins* Baeur Giolito Keuchel* Cease Kopech CL: Giles SU: Bummer* SU: Heuer MR: Lopez MR: Rodon* MR: Marshall MR: Johnson LR: Dunning

What a horrible post. Moncada, Robert, Eloy, Timmy, Madrigal, & Vaughn is six legit position players, plus Grandal is an important piece for the next three years. Call it seven. Giolito, Cease, & Kopech should be rotational staples, so now call it 10. Add in Bummer & Heuer as legit back-end bullpen guys and we’re at 12. No fucking clue how you could compare this to 2015.

Cishek doing his best to keep us in this game!

The fuck you talking about? The Sox have never been a results oriented business.

You’re actually hating on him because he missed tying the game by two feet?

Quality at-bat for Collins despite all the hate he gets around here.

So fucking close!?!

Where the fuck are the fundamentals with this team??! Fucking embarrassing. Collins better hit a dong before another dumb miscue happens.

Here we fucking go

Here we go. Peralta has great stuff, but is more than gettable. Fuck him up Eloy!

Horrible fucking call right there

Believe my friend, believe
