Sox hitters have the crappiest abs

Seby can't get here fast enough.  Looks like Castillo's Baltimore season was entirely a product of the juice.

Burr must miss Hamilton

I am sure no one feels worse than Yolmer for the error but he has to get it figured out

They will be together in AAA soon.  This bullpen is comical outside the two that only pitch when they are losing.

And of course our relief pitcher has to give up the obligatory home run. Of course it was to Judge  

1 hit in that ballpark is unreal. they really need a better approach as a team. at least Nova played solid.

I didn't mind that pull. Nova gave up a hit to start the inning. The bad move was to pinch hit Sanchez for Rondon.

Why didn't GIo have a short leash in yesterdays game? He let Gio go over 100 pitches despite battling most of the game but pulls Nova who cruised the whole game. Renteria's strategy is awful. I haven't even mention the ridiculous pinch hit of Sanchez for Rondon just because a pitching change. He puts way too much emphasis on righty/lefty lefty/righty match ups which causes him to make awful moves like that. I'm not someone who uses managers as scapegoats. I never jumped on the Robin hate bandwagon like most White Sox fans. I didn't use him as a scapegoat for bad White Sox teams. Robin was hated for managing a team that failed for many years but his managing was never as bad as Ricky's. 

best line of the day was when Stone said "CC slowing down Sox Red hot line up"

 

I did a double take on that one... evidently 1 game out of 6  = "Red hot"

Sad loss. I don't like Rondon but Yolmer needs to stay on the pine. WTF

Renteria and Sanchez with brilliant performances.

He should be figuring it out somewhere else... dude doesnt got "it."

Really want to know any justification for Renteria being around. He brings nothing to the table.

They didn't lose because Renteria took out Nova. At that point Nova was being hit a little hard the prior inning and gave up a hit to start the inning and was about to face a lefty. Fry made a good pitch that should have been a double play, Sanchez booted it.

Tale of the tape:

1)poor managing move to pinch hit for Rondon

2)lackluster hitting

On the other hand, Phegley (a catcher) is batting .333 for Oakland with 3 HR's in 12 games.  Simien is batting .319 and playing good defense (supposedly the reason the Sox let him go).  Bassett, the 3rd player in that trade is on the injured list, but a serviceable pitcher when healthy.

Those 3 guys were traded for Samardzija.  That sure worked out well.

Another season of rooting for a top draft pick.

Damn I love Yolmer

I have to wonder how any Sox fan loves this guy. He sucks. He always has.

Phegley has done nothing in his previous seasons and is 31 now,Semien is a below average hitter the past 4 seasons in Oak. I would trade for Samardzija if we had to do it again.

What is your definition of an average hitter as a shortstop?

Yeah, not many teams win baseball games with 0 runs, 1 hit and 2 baserunners

1 hit...

Good thing last night got rained out late. I'm serious. Our team is abysmal.

You can say what you wish but cmon, you'd do that trade again? I think you are one of the few who would.
