  1. Every time Cease doesn't have a dominant start there's a meltdown in the game thread
  2. If you're reading this thread, I'd suggest checking out the Future Sox twitter feed tonight. They're posting/retweeting a lot of exciting stuff.
  3. He is so fun. Best prospect in the system and definitely in the conversation as a top 100 guy, to me.
  4. Sox are back to within 1.5 games of the #1 seed in the AL. Keep winning series and that upcoming series in Tampa will carry a lot of importance.
  5. Tim knew what was coming and it's nice to see him take advantage
  6. Goodwin, as a hitter, deserves more credit than he gets
  7. If people are still questioning Grandal's value after a month of actual replacement level catching they can't be helped
  8. Neither guy has pitched since Sunday but keep carrying that water for Tony, I guess
  9. MLB rules forbid Kimbrel or Hendriks pitching before the 8th inning
  10. Everyone blames the catchers, but I'm sure Katz, Tony, & the White Sox analytics department also play a huge role in the pitch calling
  11. I think the lack of flexibility with bullpen roles will be a huge issue in October if this is how Tony will manage it.
  12. Hall of Famers understand if Kimbrel or Hendriks pitch before the 8th inning their arms will fall off
  13. Bummer warming up when the Sox have the 2 best relievers in baseball rested in their pen
  14. Hendriks and Kimbrel are only allowed to pitch in the 8th and 9th? If there's a guy on base bring in your best guys. They're all rested.
  15. Now all of a sudden the strike zone is shrinking
  16. Schwindel has 2 of the worst strikeouts I've ever seen lol. He can't pick up Lynn's pitches at all.
  17. Waving the white flag on an inning when the bases are loaded and Lynn is at 87 pitches is a mistake. The entire bullpen is rested. You absolutely can win if you manage the game logically.
  18. Having a Hall of Fame manager is great
  19. Good thing the Sox ride their starters every game with more resources devoted to their bullpen than any team in baseball
  20. Letting Lance bat here when he's likely only going to pitch 1 more inning anyway doesn't make a lot of sense.
  21. I'm shocked when pitchers throw him anything that isn't a fastball in off the plate right now. This has got to be the first time since he broke out where he's had 1 issue pitchers can attack like this.
  22. Seems like the Sox have been more aggressively positioning guys up the middle lately which is nice to see
  23. It's wild how effective throwing a fastball directly down the middle is for Lance vs pretty much any other pitcher in baseball
