Tony needs to go out there and take a swing at the umpire. The Sox need to get more.strike zone respect.

I hope Josh Donaldson gets a little sweet chin music to scare him straight. Don't hit him intentionally, but make his ass dance.

He won't be happy if they try Burger at 2nd base. Doubt they do that when he starts though.

JRod 3-5 with 2 2B, 1 HR. Have yourself a big day fella!

What's different about the manager doing that and the catcher turning around to ask about a call? Catchers do it all the time.

Maybe they're just keeping him at 2B? He's been playing there as of late.

This team sucks. Trade everybody.

Urine is allowed, fecal matter isn't

Lolol

Lenyn Sosa looking pretty good this year. I'm officially the guy who doesn't want to trade any minor league pieces.

Look at splits

Ooooo eat some fucking crow ray ray!!

I'm honestly surprised so many people think bitching at the umpires will result in more strike calls.

She'll be single if she ever mutters those words

Ban bet that Eloy will be the primary DH the rest of the year when he returns

The lady wants to "hang out" during the game because "it's the 4th of July." Such a drag, smh

Veteran privilege.

This. He sucks. I'm more confident in Goodwin at this point.

If TLR rips into the ump early in the game, the Sox probably win 8 to 5

This topic came up during the game today. The umpire blew 2 big strike calls while Burr was pitching. Burr got robbed of 2 strikeouts. Ethan Katz got thrown out for complaining from the dugout. TLR talked with the ump, but didn't get thrown out. Some people in the game thread were angry that Tony wasn't defending his guy much. Some even thought that if Tony would complain to the umpires more, the Sox would get more borderline strike calls. Do you think Tony needs to lay into the umpires more, and possibly get thrown out of some games while defending the team?

Dallas seems like a jagoff. Hopefully this makes the team more likely to not give him enough innings for that extra year to kick in.

You mean we shouldnt leave a reliever in for 40 pitches in his return from a long DL stint?

Why does yelling at the umpires work? Psychology, that's why. Don't ask me to explain it further. If you don't understand it, your brain is simply too small.

https://www.soxmachine.com/2021/07/02/unfavorable-strike-zones-have-been-costly-to-the-white-sox/ Based on umpire scorecards, the Sox are +0.25 runs when Grandal is catching and -10 runs when Collins is catching. This points to Collins being SO bad, that the Sox get docked that many calls when he is catching (as little as he does). It's most definitely a Collins issue. Tony bitching wouldn't change that.
