Big Frank on post game thinks it’s nonsense RR batting TA so low in lineup with no protection. I agree

I just don’t get why you take out Fry in that situation and turn Ramirez around to his stronger side/make it easier for Lindor to run. Fry didn’t look taxed at all.

When Eloy gets back, they need to settle on a 1-6, and ride or die with it.

Why wait that long? Set the Top 5 and let Eloy hit 6th when he returns.  

With Eloy back if they insist on keeping Alonso:

1. Leury CF

2. Moncada 3B

3. Anderson SS

4. Abreu DH/1B

5. McCann C

6. Eloy LF/DH (maybe try to take some pressure off of him? Also, DH against lefties)

7. Alonso 1B/DH /Cordell LF against lefties 

8. Sanchez 2B

9. Tilson RF

Can you make up the lineups from now on!

Jace Fry is a major disappointment but if Aaron Bummer could be a thing, it’s fine w me

Batting Alonso 4th game after game is nuts.  Please stop doing it.

He's making nine million, it will take a lot for the organization to admit they screwed up again and drop him down in the lineup or flat out cut him.

I feel like they've gotta cut him at some point right? Give him as many at bats as possible to try to get him going and if not, drop him well before his option vests?

Lineup aside, we won 2 out of 3 against the Indians on the road. That is at least a positive.

Another example of Ricky being the sorry ass manager that most us see clearly.

   On the post game show they had a big segment about small ball. Apparently RR is a genius for bunting them over and playing for the tie.

Only in White Sox land is a dope playing for a tie on the road with a thin bull pen considered to be the new Earl Weaver.

I disagree.  They DFA'D (and later released) Danks who was making more than Yonder.  Canned Latos, Rollins, Holland, Santana, etc. after dumpster performances.  If anything, they seem to be more willing to cut bait on sunk costs now.  If he keeps sucking and Collins is still performing at AAA, why not just cut bait and call him up to replace him?
