So wait, can we bring Frank out of retirement? I want to know how well those Nugenix pills actually work.

At least he'll be "more successful with the ladies" if nothing else.

Or maybe Frank can rope TLR into also advertising the Nugenix and contributing to his "rebirth as a manager."

JR and this organization suck.

The Sox in the AL Central is the unsinkable ship and yet the dorf hires the one captain determined to steer it directly in the path of an iceberg.  Even a halfway competent halfway sleeping manager could get this team into first place.

Hey look Ozzie.  The dorf called him to let him know he couldn't be the manager again.  Does anyone doubt the Sox would have a better record with Ozzie instead of Tony?

Leave it to Jr to literally fuck up everything like only he can.

Still not time to panic but it is getting closer and closer. Not sure how this team gets to 25 games over .500 at this point. Too many players have to figure things out and the bullpen is meh. 

Lucas supposedly admitted in the post game that he was out of gas.  What a clown show.

Underperforming players and an incompetent manager. You would hope when one side falters the other would pick them up, but nope. Great success!

When's the last time in White Sox history they lost a game where the other team committed so many errors?

On the broadcast they said 1999 vs. Milwaukee.

 

Wow, giolito threw him under the bus

It was a bad loss but its not a big deal everyone calm the heck down.

They had won 6/7 before today.  Ill be concerned if they lose the next two games.  Some of you seriously need to chill - its a long season and they’ve looked good lately.  TLR is making some questionable calls but he manages from instinct so its bound to happen.

How freaking dumb do you have to be to not realize this?

Madrigal back to.his old self

Ace of the staff says he is out of gas after 6 innings.  Dont pay him 200 mil!

Tony looked pissed that giolito said that. That's shocking.

They’ve lost far too many games already that they should have won.  I’m not exaggerating when I say they should be 17-5.

Of course it would require Sean Lowe and the 20th save for former White Sox Bob Wickman.

 

5-4 Brewers victory.   The crazy thing is we didn't even really make it all that close in the end.

How do you not check with your starter before sending him back out there when he has thrown 95 pitches. Amazing

There’s just no way any of these players enjoy playing for him.  I know they all say the right things

Down 3 and he's looking for singles.  No wonder Lucas threw his ass under the bus. He's completely lost.

To further this, Tony literally responded by saying "he said that?" In a frustrated way

He kept saying “I thought Lucas could’ve gotten the 3rd out”......was he unaware all the damage came with just 1 out in the inning???

We really should make members take some sort of novice baseball exam before signing up....yikes.

Except the Twins can turn around and do the same exact thing.

15-7 and 14-8 feels pretty realistic for where they were EXPECTED to be at this point, though.

 

That Pythagorean or expected wins/losses has them just at a one game swing's worth of difference...so +4 versus +2.

And to think, some people here swear managers have little to no impact on the game ?

Pitchers must go 7-8 innings, home runs are bad, bunting is smart baseball
