Yeah buddy! And that was a nice hit too! Took it the other way!

And they let him off the hook. Hurry back Luis and Eloy ???

True. But no pitch can make Vaughn's swing not look good. Damn is that a sexy swing.

Ugh...cmon. Need to get more than 1. Let's go AV

Do NOT let them off the hook with these walks. This inning for the Sox is huge. Need to capitalize early here.

Missed another chocolate chunk right down the center

Grandal let a cookie go...

Let's get to Maeda early. Don't let him off the hook here and let him settle in. Rock him while the opportunity is here.

Cmon let's make it 3-2 here. I want to see a bat drop

Jose actually looks pretty locked in. He has had some good looks and good cuts this at bat.

Prediction: Sheets is our Schwarber

God it must be miserable in Arizona right now in the dead of Summer

FANTASTIC news!!

Prayers and condolences for the family

Kinda what I was thinking. The injury risk should sweeten the deal, if anything.

I think this was baseball's way of saying to Abreu to take a break. Fastball to the knee.

Those basketball jerseys looked pretty sweet...honestly jealous I couldn't be there to get one. I loved the road "Chicago" script on the home white pinstripe jerseys

I agree...

Maybe instead of focusing on "changing the game" they should focus on winning it, eh?

So what's the problem then?

Okay, but the thing is, not every player is going to be good ALL season long. I remember Konerko saying that if you regularly have 3 good months in a baseball season, you are a good player. The trick is to have enough players that can play at a high caliber level that can pick up the struggling guys. BECAUSE of the injuries, almost half this starting lineup regularly are AAA players...

Seriously? You think if Eloy, Robert, Madrigal, Engel, Kopech and Eaton were all, or mostly healthy this would still be happening?

He's an automatic out, and has been for all of June

Injuries have decimated the team.

Is it regression or is it just going through a rough patch, as all teams, even the best ones, go through? Hard to know, really, especially with all the injuries. Shades of 2020 and 2012 though.
