caulfield12 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Amazingly, even at -9 today, two teams are still a bit worse in RS/RA differential...Balt at -86 and Miami at -94. We’re currently at -85. KC -82. Edited May 30, 2018 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't trust Lopez at all. I believe I said multiple times last year that if the sox have a brutal season this year it doesn't bode well for the Sox to be a contender anytime soon. What pieces right now look like they can contribute to a winning team? As good as Lopez has looked would you classify him as a #3 starter on a contending team? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really think the NL Central won’t beat up on the Reds? A lot more quality over there...although Pitt is falling back to earth, and quickly (see Cora/Freese confrontation.)

Dick Allen Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I think Cincinnati, Baltimore, and KC are near locks to have a worse record than the White Sox by the end of the season. Miami is pretty awful too. The Sox might lose over 100 games and wind up with worse draft position than this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptatc Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I couldn't watch the game but how did they score 7 runs off Lopez with 8 hits and one walk? Nearly everybody that reached nase scored. Thats tough to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) What a god awful effort. Anderson's throwing is total garbage. Moncada's focus has been dogshit as well. Taking first pitch fastball strike against Kluber was another very bad approach by him. Edited May 30, 2018 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree, this has been a dreadful season so far. Renteria has not done a good job either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Moncada is now 15 for his last 72. When Anderson was 10 for his last 63, or whatever it was, he got a day off. Time for a break for Moncada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScootsMcGoots Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Anyone that is depressed with this team, go ahead and look at the minor league game thread. At least there is hope for the future of this club, even though it feels like there is none sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 4 minutes ago, Tony said: Moncada looks like shit For someone that can't hit off speed pitches, he is far too reluctant to go after first pitch fastballs. I know he said he's not going to worry about strikeouts this year, but having no plan at the plate is just wasting developmental at bats. He's a frustrating player right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moncada, Anderson, Abreu, and Sanchez are the only regular position players that can contribute to a winning team. I'm not yet sold on Davidson. Lopez is the only current guy in the rotation. Rodon will be back but counting on him to stay healthy is a fools errand. The FO is going to have to spend some $ on a couple FA arms if they expect to be competing in 2020.

greg775 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Hmm we have 16 wins after two months keeping my sub-50 win season right on pace. Worst team I've ever seen is this one. And yes, we've been just what the doctor ordered AGAIN for the Indians. Excuse time: Injuries, Lopez needs time, be patient, etc. Maybe Hawk can tell us Ricky's boys don't quit. (Cue the excuses).

Cause "what does it matter?" Rate Moncada when we get good, folks. You guys who want to lose have to accept the fact pathetic losing can affect certain hitters different ways.
