  1. The Chicago White Sox have the best run differential in the American League at +21 (Boston right behind them at +20). They are second in all of MLB behind the Dodgers at +32. Sox keep this up, they will be just fine.
  2. I think the players work way too hard to have the outcome of a play, and sometimes even the game, be left in the hands of someone/something they have absolutely zero control over. It It doesn't just happen once a week, this is happening multiple times a game. I understand it when people say "that's the nature of the game; that's life; etc." But life also changes. We adjust things to make life better. We have the capabilities with technology to get the balls and strikes call right 100% of the time, and there is no reason it shouldn't be. If they still want a person behind the plate for more dramatic effect with the calls behind the plate, maybe equip the hp umpire with something that looks like VR goggles, which shows him the strikezone virtually (much like we have on our tv screens, but probably a lot more advanced), and they can make the call based on the result on the goggles. Something like that...
  3. Len Kasper is...boring imo. Doesn't really keep the conversation going with Stone.
  4. Why did he say he isn't on the right team?
  5. If this continues i think you might need to swallow the pride and seriously think about bringing in Collins as a defensive replacement in late innings.
  6. If it helps him win who cares
  7. Tomorrow I want to see a lineup of Anderson, Eaton, Yerminator, Yoan, Abreu Robert, Vaughn, Grandal or Collins, Madrigal
  8. You think Grandals knee caused that passed ball? I'm thinking maybe we start bringing in Collins for late inning defensive replacement at catcher. Grandal seems to shit the bed defensively during the late innings when it's tight.
  9. Umpire blowing ball 4 call cost us a baserunner and gave Tex an out, should be 1st and 3rd one out. It changes games.
  10. I wanna see a Grandal bat drop lets gooooo
  11. We say this every game. They all suck. Which goes to show me if even the most trained professionals repeatedly make the same mistakes, either the training needs rehauling or it's just humanly impossible to track pitches correctly all the time. Enter electronic strikezones.
  12. Umpires suck at their jobs. Why do we even have strikezones.
  13. Luis Robert owes Cease a homerun or something.
  14. He knows it too. Much different game when you're on the mound as opposed to bullpen sessions.
  15. Looks like Cease is either right down the middle or way out of the zone
  16. If he goes into the Iowa cornfields, the "Eloy's dead" jokes will have a whole new meaning behind them...
