Chicago White Sox

You clearly haven’t visited Palka’s Fangraphs page this year.

Could definitely be a muscle strain or cramp in the leg. Just don’t see how it could be hip related.

Looked like he couldn’t put weight on his ankle after his delivery without pain. I’m no expert here, but it certainly looked like an ankle injury from my untrained eye.

I think it’s just frustration. If it was serious, I’d hope they wouldn’t let him walk off the field on his own.

Holy fuck

What the fuck is going on with his ankle??

Yeah, he’s definitely got everything going right now.

KKKK

My bad! I’ve just been so impressed with his command today I was hoping he could go walkless!

No walks!

Three K’s in the 1st! Nice work Lucas!

Outside of that HBP, so far so good for Lucas today!

That Kanny lineup is K’ing like crazy.

He’s dominated like crazy since we drafted him. Does anyone know what kind of stuff he has? I’m assuming he’s a soft tosser just based on his age & draft position, but I’ve seen nothing specific on that end.

100% agree. At this point, I care more about the handling of the young arms than the potential offensive upside Swihart might bring to the table.

? ? ?

Like I said a couple days ago, with Machado, Joc, and a legit SP (instead of Santana) this team could have made a run at this shitty divison. Unfortunately that didn’t happen and we just have too many holes to realistically land a playoff spot.

Oh I don’t disagree and have liked what I’ve seen out of Alonso, but your post made it seem like he’s some positive BABIP regression away from like a 150 wRC+ season.

To be fair, he’s also walking ~20% of the time and that’s not going to last.

Moncada! Leury! Moncada! Alonso! Lopez! Bullpen! Let’s get that fucking ? tomorrow!!!!!

Lol...that was awesome.

Frare ain’t on the roster, but otherwise I agree.

Isn’t 2020 a team option if he doesn’t reach the 550 plate appearance threshold? If so, there’s no reason to let it automatically gets. He’s more valuable to us and other teams if 2020 is not guaranteed.

Rough night for Timmy.

Zero tools? Do you actually understand what tools are? And JFC, he’s a former HS pick (a raw one no less) who has less than 600 professional at-bats. It should surprise no one his results have been poor so far. That being said, this idea that he can’t get better is just plain stupid.
