Especially with Jose up, definitely

Any concerns about TA's inability to pull the ball in the air are officially gone

Madrigal has a higher wRC+ than Tim Anderson and until a week ago it was higher than Jose Abreu's as well. The Sox lineup is filled with hitters that fall in the ~110-120 wRC+ range and no one struggles to see why most of those guys are valuable, but for some reason with Madrigal people fixate on the lack of power when the end result for him is still a well above-average hitter.

Wes Kath's HR had a 105 exit velo, per FutureSox. That is elite raw power for a 19 year old, wow.

Definitely in the conversation for game of the year. that was awesome

If this game was 11-1 the other way it'd be a 40 page game thread, at least

Not to get ahead of myself, but there's going to be a season when this team gets good health luck and they have one of the best team offensive seasons of all-time

Imagine how scary this lineup is going to be once Grandal is in there for Seby there won't be anywhere for pitchers to relax or hide.

There's the team leader in wRC+ coming through again 😎

Under split on Fangraphs select "Live-Stats Full Season" Their leaderboards update within ~30 seconds of what happens on the field.

If that's it for Lucas, his ERA is down to 3.81. 24th in fWAR amongst SPs.

He also barely missed a concourse HR to RF in his first PA that ended as a walk

Wes Kath 2-3 with his 1st career HR!

Maybe this should be in FutureSox only, but Wes Kath hit his 1st career HR tonight

I think it's safe to say TA can pull the ball again

There was an article on MLB.com about this exact topic earlier in the season. Apparently, Moncada's secret sauce to high BABIPing is avoiding weak contact at a higher clip than any hitter in baseball https://www.mlb.com/news/yoan-moncada-near-top-of-all-time-babip-leaderboard

You know Lucas will be pushing hard to get the CG tonight

That pitch wasn't even remotely close lol

Given how wet the field was that Hamilton catch is an all-timer for me in White Sox history

Lining out on something with a .550 xBA is a pretty accurate reflection of how the last month has gone for him

He's definitely the best of KC's young arms right now, and it wouldn't surprise me if he ends up being the best going forward

And, to me at least, how much more compelling his argument for the Hall of Fame becomes

.600 xBA for Cesar on that flyout
