Nice play of the hop by Yoan

Almost played it into an in-between hop but made the recovery...

Having a cheap ass mortgage company paint a red down arrow all over the park is just so White Sox.

This.

Nice job by Carlson making the adjustment and pulling his hands in to guide the inside pitch into LF...

Gee, WHERE exactly have we heard that for approximately the last 6 months?  I wonder...but what's the connection with Jose Abreu, Cuban beisbol player, exactly?    

You know when someone tries too hard to be funny and flops?

Jose almost dropped that, yikes.

Are we really THAT desperate for advertising revenue, Company Man Brooks Boyer?    I mean, have some self-respect.   How many franchises in baseball would permit THAT?

The Mariners?   Marlins?   Pirates?    Royals?   Orioles?   Tigers?

Now y'all are getting hurt feels over advertising? I think some people need to get outside  or something. Find a new hobby maybe.

I’m really loving this Keuchel acquisition, so good to see this type of baseball when he pitches

It might have been during your hiatus but we talked it to death, and rightfully so, it's a horrible look.  Find a new fucking sponsor.

Is Eloy a bust at this point? Absolutely not. Carson Fulmer is a bust. Is he a disappointment? Yes. There is a difference. Eloy is definitely an MLB player. I'm disappointed in the hit tool and the plate discipline. Power is legit.

Gee, and it's so clever, because JOSE is, you guessed it, Spanish for Joe/Joseph.

(And next we'll have a rousing discussion of immigration and comparisons with US and Cuban health care policy and drug pricing, surely.)

As long as he doesn't start quoting from Camp of the Saints in a Game Thread, that's my red line.

Who cares this much?

look what I found, what bad luck, we've had a lot of bad luck BABIP wise.

THIS.   Especially for a team up and coming with high/er expectations than any season since 2013 arguably.

a lot of Sox fans.

Eloy is young, you shouldn’t be disappointed. Not everyone comes on the scene immediately and yet once again I do not think he’s even played a full season of games yet.

Embittered White Sox fans.   Thad Bosley.  WDSWF, future Sox GM?   Greg, because no advertising impacts parking/souvenir/concessions pricing, indirectly.

What a waste. 

Eloys shortcomings are magnified right now because he mirrors those of a lot of this roster.  Many have the same flaws poor OBP and sketchy defense.

Sloppy SS2K5 at it again

Mazara not hustling AGAIN.  There is no accountability on this team.

Mazara is a ground ball machine. If he could ever get the ball in the air he kills it. Been the same story his whole career. 

I think arrow down is quite apt. What this team needs is the Chevy spirit squad dancing on the dugout. 

They should have to do the Willie Mays Hayes push-ups on the field for any ball pulled to the same side on the ground...like Wesley Snipes popping up any ball into the air, same guiding principle.
