Fastest-mlb-teams-in-2023, Sox 29th
I think Sox players never actually sprinting last year plays into this. All 2022 data is more like jog speed or limp speed. TA was the only “fast” player who actually looked good on the bases last season. Hopefully we get a full season of that. It is natural for players to slow down as they age, but I expect Robert, Moncada, Eloy to look a lot better on the base-paths this year. Even Grandal who is always terribly slow was surprisingly immobile on the base-paths. He seems to be moving better this year. Not sure how much playing time Romy will get this season, but he’s got some wheels on him as well. When I look at their roster, it doesn’t scream near-slowest-team-in-MLB, but we will see.

April Fools Joke White Sox DFA Jake Diekman
What’s crazy is that he actually lowered his BB% after coming here from Boston, but almost doubled his H/9. Some of that can be attributed to poor defense and bad defensive positioning, as he did improve his GB%. Either way, he has looked nothing but horrible in a White Sox uniform. He is regularly behind in the count and does nothing but put runners on base. 2+ WHIP in a White Sox uniform speaks for itself.

In reality, I’d say he has about two weeks to show he’s an adequate MLB pitcher.

Moncada hurt during WBC
Now we are complaining about hypothetical errors, since we cannot complain about real errors.

Too much sex appeal. Threatens the male masses.

Got it. Yeah, I’m thinking he freaked himself out more than anything.

Moncada hurt during WBC
Bobby is the only one reporting a concussion right now, so there’s a chance he got the outfielder’s injury wrong.

Cool of the announcers to cut to commercial with him laying lifeless on the ground to return and make zero mention of it even happening.

ST: 3/10, Sox at Cubs, 2pm, Marquee
Grif has already stated he likes Andy B in the 3 spot. I think he’s there for at least the start of the regular season.

Dave Wills dead
My reply was to all of your comments, and your overall message alluding to this being a side effect of the Covid vaccine. I have nothing more to say about this. Have a nice life.

Is there a way to watch this game?

Who are the 4 bench players for the Sox?
How soon do we start losing the non-roster veterans? I am assuming some as early as opening day. Just wondering how much depth they can provide, in case of injury. Also, I cannot root against Billy to make the team. I just cannot do it.

Tim’s comments do not really warrant this type of outrage. Let’s see how he performs this year. The Score hosts do not know s%*# about anything “behind the scenes.” Let’s see how they perform this year. - 3/1 Sox vs Cleveland, 2:05PM CT, no tv
