All star!

Before Nicky got hurt I was talking to a friend about how dismal the AAA options are. I might take Tito Polo over May and Tilson.

It is nice to see the offense seeming to wake up.

Charlotte is a wasteland.  I only follow if Kopech is pitching.

Tilson has actually been bouncing back since his awful start.

Yeah it's not good. Tilson I'm not giving up on since his long time off means he would be expected to struggle for quite a while even if he's going to figure it out. But it's not like I'm going to spend any energy watching that process play out.

I went to a Charlotte game a week or so ago and after Kopech left the game it was really hard to stay and watch.

35th and Shields is pretty much a wasteland too. Things are gonna be better starting next year right right right?

Hope you're right, but I'm sure not seeing it in his splits: https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=tilson000cha&type=bgl&year=2018

Just getting home from a thing...

Has this game been as messy as the box score indicates? Looks like a little league game. 

I mean, I figured with Matt Moore squaring off against Carson Fulmer. lol... but still.

.286 in his last 10, reached base in 8 of them.

I mean, it can't get worse. lol

Yoan should hit the ball hard vs Chavez

Love that he didn't try to kill the 0-2 slider

Engel should run into one here for shit n giggles

Remember when Moncada was a bust?

Engel's bat path is insane

Also showing he is more effective when he's swinging more and not the easiest player in baseball to strike out

Looks like he's trying to hit a flop or something in golf

Fulmer was 8th overall pick in the draft. Hmmmm ... is that potential still there or is he an abysmal stiff? His line tonight was horrendous again. What do the Sox do with him? 

Another very soft grounder batting lefty. If he's going to keep switch hitting, you will want to protect him with righties before and after as much as possible when games matter

Just send him to AAA to try to regain some control.
Hearing from a  different coach might help (might help some others, too).

They should re-invent him as a reliever, bring his curveball back, bring his old mechanics back.

I agree with others here...

...send him down, hope he regains/changes something, if all else fails, send him to be a RP and if that fails, the White Sox scouts failed on that one. 

Not to be a dick, but since I've tuned in, it sure seem's like Ricky's boys have quit tonight.

It's a cliche so it can be used tonight for sure. They sure look like they quit to me at the at bats I've watched. Oh I know ... it's raining. Excuse time for RR.

It's ok, we're used to it.
