Leury with the go ahead RBI

Swing for the win.

Keuchel, was a disaster and Lynn has been awful. Giolito has gone from our Ace down to a back of rotation starter. Who knows how many more innings Kopech can pitch this season? The bullpen has been riddled with injuries including top lefties Crochet and Bummer. Several position players have spent a lot of time on the injured list. Not sure what some fans expected from these guys. As currently constructed, this is a +/- .500 team .

Sox need some pitching help. My guess is that some of our bats will come alive and carry the Sox into the playoffs.

I would be happy with almost any decent starter(s) or reliever(s) at this point, so yes to Quintana and maybe trade for Colome or another closer type in case Hendrick has any problems and set-up guys like Kelly and Bummer continue to have arm issues. . I wish the Sox had promoted Colas and demoted Sheets after the ASB so that we could have seen if Colas could handle pitching and defense at the major league level. Probably not, but Sheets is not up to it right now so why not give the next guy up a chance?

Thank you for your response. Not doing well after being diagnosed. I hope the Sox have a better year than most of us think they will. I was hoping for an outfield with (alternating) Eloy/Pollock in Left, Robert/Engel in Center, and Vaughn/Colas in RF.

Eloy is my favorite player on the WSox so if they trade him, I pretty much lose interest in the team in my final year.

Colas is raking at AA. Bring him up and give him a shot.

I hope Eloy is going to mash and stay healthy the rest of the way. He changes the look of the line-up and puts a lot more pressure on opposing pitchers. Keep hitting home runs boys and the W's will rack up.

Suck it Trolls. Sox win.

LaRussa made the right call to have Pollock bat righty on righty...a game winning call.

It is possible that Cleveland is just better than the White Sox. They seem to be proving it this season.

Cub Trolls feeding on Sox woes like rats eating pigeon shit.

This team was and is overrated.. They lack speed, power, and in many cases, the durability required to endure the grind of a long season. Too many one tool players and one trick ponies.

I fear that Lynn gives up a quick 3 runs. If so pull him while he still has some trade value.

You missed the point.

Calls for TLR to be fired (while justified) only obscure the fact that the players and pitchers on this team (Cease and Cueto aside) were overrated, almost down to the man. The standings indicate that the Sox can contend, but when you watch games against the top teams, you realize the Sox are way short on speed, power, athleticism and pitching. If the Sox decide to sell, I would dangle All-Star Liam Hendriks and see if he could net some prospects.

Good find. I notice TA and Eloy in the dugout looking more concerned about 88 than anything as though they may have known about his condition. Robert's return to baseball is obviously secondary to concerns about his health. he looked like he was not up to par defensively for a few games before the break. I wonder if he suffered a concussion in one of them and if so, whether he might be experiencing post concussion symptoms. Sox will proceed cautiously with one of their best players even if Luis has to be out the rest of the season.

What would the plan be to hold Giolito accountable after he gave up 6 in the first two innings ? I'm worried about the big fatass' next start too. Bad starts are going to burn out this bullpen.

Eloy has been trying to rehab his leg for a while after surgery on the hamstring. He has been experiencing some tightness or pain in that leg since he started rehab in Charlotte. My hope is that the injury/rehab issue is resolved, but so far, that does not seem to be the case. I wonder if the continued pain and tightness in that leg is a result of a surgery that was somehow not successful . Another possibility that has been already discussed here, is that the training staff and management decided to bring him back to soon. Eloy of not fat but if I were him I would try to cut some weight to take some pressure off the leg. He looked like a stud in the outfield in that Futures game when he was lighter. Sox need Eloy and Grandal in the line-up hitting home runs.

Sox need to put the players they already have on the field at the same time before they start trading them off.

Most will eventually learn that even life itself owes them nothing. .

Two....One to cover the no 5 spot in case Lynn continues to fail and another in the event Kopech hits a wall with the amount of innings he is able to pitch.

Two or three stud starting pitchers can help to carry a team in the playoffs. We have one - Cease.

Sox need a few starters and a LH reliever more than they need a LH hitter. IMO.
