Don’t worry, Ricky thinks Delmonico is having a lot of quality at bats!

Absolutely no urgency from Tank Commander Renteria

I want Nick to be good, but the time was last year.  Feel bad for him but once Madrigals up in a few days, I only want to see Leury/Engel

After this double header I'm actually more optimistic than the start of the day. The relief pitching looks great. Giolito gets a chance to rebound and the most important parts are hitting - Moncada, Robert and they get Eloy, mazara and madrigal all this weekend. It's a brutal start, but the starter situation will work itself out this next week and it's either A. Going to get better and they compete... Or B. it's a disaster and we get to see a ton of Lambert, dunning and they know what they have going into 2021. 

I was so excited a week ago.  Now I'm just disgusted by their performance. 

Giolito needs to step up tomorrow.  2-4 sounds a hell of a lot better than 1-5

I agree completely but I think if it goes B then we end up with way too much Detweiler and Gio G instead of guys you want to see get reps.  
 

Here’s to some A

Keep your heads up guys tomorrow’s another day....the same bs he’s said for the past couple years. Time to move on.....

It’s 5 games worth of unplayable starting pitching.

You can cancel the post season show.

To be fair, tomorrow is another day. 

Chicago should hold a parade if/when the Sox ever crush the .500 mark. The Sox are losers until they can get over .500. They are allergic to .500.

The team looks fundamentally out of sync in every aspect of the game. It's early but they have to figure some stuff out. Not hitting any panic button, but looking like this vs KC would be... alarming.

Cooper does a terrible job in getting his starters mentally prepared.

Well, Keuchel was fine and relievers did him no favors...

I have to say...it's getting old to trail in most games after 1 inning.    The pitchers are never prepared to walk to the mound and start pitching.

The overall vibe is failure mode. It's like a virus.

What makes you qualified for this position?

I'm "The Worlds Biggest White Sox Fan". (WBWSF) I've been a season ticket holder for years. I see virtually every White Sox game. That alone should get me an interview. Our present GM has numerous degrees. I only have one degree. All of Hahns degrees  hasn't brought any success as a GM. He has been a failure as a GM. His record speaks for itself. Realistically, if I had the GM job I couldn't do any worse than him. I've said it before and i will say it again. I would give JR the most unforgetable interview of his life.

The catch the Cleveland CF made to rob Collins, made me think. If Eloy was running toward the wall like that, I am not joking, an ambulance would be on the field.

I really didnt want to see Engle or Nicky on this team but it is what it is, our weak links are actually in the front office IE Hahn and the two running the team (RR) and pitching coach (Coop) OR maybe the 2020 White Sox are just not good at the sport of baseball

Why is Engel getting dragged into this?

Delmonico would be in Schaumburg if Mazara was healthy, so I don't understand the frustration of him being on the roster. Batting in the middle of the line up, I can see that argument.

Being on the roster.. no one disagrees with.. But starting every game but 1 and batting in the middle of the order in just about every game.... WTF is going on.
