Chicago White Sox

Dunning is a fucking stud!!

Three Ks!!!

After one inning: Dunning: 11 pitches, 7 strikes, 1 K, 0 BB, 1 H, 0 R Mize: 14 pitches, 8 strikes, 2 K, 0 BB, 1 H

Let’s just hope it’s not a bomb!

Lol...what the hell was that?!

Did you see Zack’s pitch calling? Dane has full trust in him.

The chemistry between Dane & Collins is very strong, hopefully Zack can be his personal catcher for years to come

Great first for Dane!

Stone’s chemistry with Jason seems better as of late.

Dunnong!!!

Or at least looks like he’s played RF before and makes a solid effort

Sounds good to me!

Mazara is really bad out there.

I’m not sure what to expect from Jerry at this point, but now and this off-season would be great times to absorb some contracts. Hard to imagine that Grandal & Keuchel blew all our “unprecedented financial flexibility” but it does seem Jerry is crying poor to the media.

Fantastic fucking news!!

If you’re willing to take on money, I bet we could get something useful.

Thanks...glad you enjoyed it!

Dreams can come true!!

The hate Collins’ defense gets on this board is well beyond rationale.

He didn’t tag up when he could have. Didn’t ultimately matter because he ended up scoring from second base anyways.

I don’t even live in Chicago anymore, but that would be awesome. The Sox deserve to be on a dedicated-sports station.

No idea who is this Tom guy is, but love this tweet! Look at that Dunnong death stare, what an absolute bulldog!

Alright boys, today is the third game of four against the Tigers and the Sox have a chance to take the series with a win today. The Sox have won three straight and have vaulted themselves to the 7th playoff spot, sitting 1.5 game behind the Indians for 2nd place in the Central. With a series against a tough Cubs team this weekend, we can’t afford to take our feet off the neck of a weak Tigers’ club yet. We need to keep beating up these bottom dwellers and building ourselves a little cushion. Today’s pitching matchup should be a fascinating one. Two well regarded pitching prospects are finally making their major league debuts. For the Sox that would be Dane Dunning, a former top 100 prospect (before TJS) who was outstanding in the minors. While he doesn’t have elite fastball velocity, his combination of pitchability, a diverse set of quality offerings, & a bulldog mentality creates a pitcher who is far greater than the sum of their individual parts. IMO, he has a real chance of becoming a legit #3 starter in the majors. As for the Tigers, they will be starting right-handed Casey Mize, the 1st overall pick of the 2018 draft and consensus top 20 overall prospect. Mize is a kid with real “ace” upside, throwing four above average pitches and actually being able to command all of them. His main weapon is a 70 grade splitter that Jim Callis once referred to as “one of the most devastating pitches in baseball”. Let’s hope the Sox have done their homework on him, as I can see both his splitter & slider poising real challenges for us. Again, today should be a fun one. With Robert likely out, we should see Luis Gonzalez’ first major league start. He had himself a memorable major league debut last night that included a missed catch, an outfield assist, a HBP, a mini base-running blunder, and a run scored. Can he top himself tonight? We shall see, but we could definitely use an unsung hero tonight against what could be a tough pitcher for our RH bats. Let’s fucking go boys!!!!

Dude really needs to slow his roll

We’re officially back in the playoff mix!
