Chicago White Sox

So let me get this straight. We had the following things happen and did not score a single fucking run: Leury walks on five pitches Palka gets his first hit of the season A wild pitch advances the runners to 2nd & 3rd Abreu starts his at-bat 3-0

This lineup is a lot less imposing without Yoan & Timmy. Really need Eloy to drive in two here.

PH Beef for Alonso?

Good god Jose.

Is that the rule??

Palka hit!?!

Palka, now is your chance to earn your paycheck bud!

Keller is such a little b****.

It’s been like 15 games for Eloy, Avi had this problem for like ~2,500 plate appearances.

I’d normally agree, but catcher is the one spot I don’t like fucking around with. Forcing a bad receiver on our young pitchers is a risk simply not worth taking IMO. Also, FWIW, McCann is under team control for one more year if we want him.

I don’t recall seeing this, but I definitely could have missed it.

Pull Eloy & Tim ASAP!!

Looks like it got mostly helmet at least

Holy fuck

The ? wouldn’t be worth it if it had to come easy!

For now, with Moncada up next it may not be tied for long.

A shot in the dark that potentially disrupts the development of our young pitching. I just don’t see how the reward is worth the risk.

Madrigal, 2B Moncada, 3B# Martinez, DH Jimenez, LF Vaugh, 1B Grandal, C# Anderson, SS Robert, CF Basabe, RF#

Does anyone in baseball have more swag than Tim Anderson? Dude will be an absolute star if he keeps this up!

This post deserves more likes!

Because McCann has been Rodon & Giolito’s personal catcher this year and so far both have show some real promise. I’d rather not disrupt that in hopes of Swihart turning into a backup catcher.

What a terrible fucking send right there

Giolito did get his FIP below 4.00 so at least that’s a plus.

That’s good to hear...can’t be anything too serious.

Why are we assuming he’s going to miss time? It literally could have been just a cramp and they decided to play it safe.
