Lip Man 1

The recap is the same things that have been plaguing this organization for years are still very much in play. Terrible pitch recognition, to few walks, to many strikeouts, no clutch hitting. the "so-called" best players ("Bust Brothers") suck, the bullpen chokes in key situations and oh yes...injuries.

The team record is 10 straight losses to start a season set in 1968. These clowns have a realistic chance in my opinion to tie it. If you are going to suck than you may as well be historic about it, end the season for the fans early if nothing else.

? This clown will be out a month. What a total complete waste of talent. The record for the most losses to start a season in Sox history is 10 set in 1968. These stiffs and buffoons have a chance to equal that mark, which would at least end the season early. Three straight one run losses and Hill doesn't look like he can get anybody out, but hey he works cheap!

Here's a better idea why don't the Sox hire the real Brave and Dodger scouts?

I won't wish death on anyone, as Billy Joel sang we eventually all wind up sleeping by ourselves. What I will say is that new ownership will give the franchise the chance to start doing things in a professional manner, to be competent and functional for a change.

Doesn't mean the buffoon would follow the order.

The good news is they scored some runs The bad news is the bullpen gave up the lead which I'm sure we will be seeing many, many times this year and the Sox again fail to do the little things to advance runners and bring them home. Nothing has changed in that regard from last season. The 10th inning today was a classic example. Don't stop now boys keep embarrassing yourselves!

Here's a dose of reality: https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2024/03/29/white-sox-again-provide-depressing-sense-of-deja-vu

Guessing that's a good possibility.

“Wherever you’re at, Harry and Jimmy, eat your hearts out. I hope people realize what scum you are.”--Jerry Reinsdorf, September 17, 1983.

This lineup would also look better with a manager who knew what he was doing.

Some good news today anyway.

He'll wind up in the same place after he's fired, just like Williams and Hahn, completely out of baseball with no future prospects. I agree with your comments. Grifol shot his mouth off, acted tough and arrogant and the clubs under him have done s%*#.

I'm guessing a lot of pitchers... good, bad and mediocre stiffs are going to throw a great game against this impotent lineup.

Bottom four in the lineup went 0-12. 11 strike outs, zero walks for the team. Nothing has changed there. The first of many losses and bad baseball all summer long.

I'll be curious to see what the attendance is for today. Got an e-mail this morning from the Sox saying that tickets were still available. Just a sad, sad situation.

Two stadium notes to pass along tonight. Saw on the news where the attempt by the Caps and Wizards to move to Alexandria, Virginia is now dead. The Alexandria city council said negotiations are now at an end. One of the council members put out a statement thanking everyone who put pressure on the local government to say no. And from Cleveland comes word that the Browns are now saying they need a billion dollars in renovations to Paul Brown Stadium or they need two billion to build a new domed stadium.

21 by the Orioles in 1988. N.L. record is 14 straight by the Cubs in 1997. White Sox record is 10 to start the 1968 year.

It would be interesting to know if he really wants to or not. He seems like a sharp baseball guy.

From Merkin's story this afternoon: Starting pitchers (4): Garrett Crochet, Michael Soroka, Erick Fedde, Chris Flexen Crochet’s first Major League start also will be his first Opening Day start. Although he’s a rookie, Nastrini, Chicago's No. 8 prospect, has shown good stuff and good results in Arizona (3.77 ERA across 14 1/3 innings), possessing the moxie to carry himself through rough big league starts. With the White Sox not needing a fifth starter until April 3, they will break with nine relievers and Nastrini should get the call at that point.
