The Mighty Mite

Last night, said he wanted to play but couldn’t make the long throws from deep short.

Would the Cubs take TA for Madrigal?

Jake is turning into another Dave Nicholson.

He just doesn’t want to play but likes the paychecks.

During the Yankee series we made it to 7 under .500 and had a better record than the Cubs who are hotter than hell right now, is there any hope at all of the Sox getting hot, I’m not too optimistic but you never know.

I remember that 1956 sweep of the Yankees, the fans were simply delirious and so happy that the Sox were sweeping the Yankees, I also remember Jack Brickhouse being extremely emotional with events of that day. What I remember most about 1956 was the next time the Yankees came to town in August and my favorite uncle took me to the second game of the series which was a night game and the Bombers killed us 10-1 and my uncle wanting to leave after the Sox batted in the 8th inning, this 10 year old was crying like a baby that we were leaving before the game was over and his boyhood heroes were being clobbered by the hated Yankees. I miss the 1950s so much as the Sox were truly the darlings of Chicago with stars like Nellie, Looie, Minnie, Billy and Jungle Jim, everywhere you went people were talking about the Sox and of course the town went nuts in 1959 when the Sox won the Pennant.

Yep and instead we hit into tailor made double plays.

Missing in action.

Just pathetic in RISP. Gio deserved a better fate.

Begs the question, do the Sox have any books on opposing pitchers.

Elvis biting the hand that once fed him!

If Frazier runs straight back he catches that ball. I’ve seen enough of him, bring back Hasely.

Very few of our guys look like they’re having fun, Robert Jr is definitely one that’s looks like he’s bored out of his mind and of course there’s Moncada who always looks like he’s going through torture.

I’m not worried about his speed, how many fast first basemen are there, certainly Paul Konerko wasn’t. He’s serviceable as a fielder, probably won’t win a Gold Glove but as he matures as a player he will get better, Abreu was no Mike Squires with the glove when he came to the Sox. I really expected AV to be more productive offensively with a higher BA near .300, at least 25 homers, 100 RBI and .850 OPS. Again I say, give him through 2024.

How many bases empty homers have we had in the last week.

Could you imagine what Harry Caray and Jimmy Piersall would be saying about these clowns.

Do Jason and Steve really think that the Sox are contenders in this for s%*# division?

So depressing.

Agree.

and Eloy promptly hits into a tailored made DP.

That was a gift with 2 strikes.

We might this week be looking at one massacre after another.

Rodriguez has had some nice seasons in the minors, he’s been in the farm system since 2018 so he’s probably just as good as anyone else we have, maybe it’s his time.

Could very well be but like you I would give him through 2024, still a little early to give up on him.

To be honest, I don’t know.
