Couldn't throw the slider cause of the wet mound and Polanco knew it.

Can't throw it because it hasn't been an effective pitch for him in over a year. 

Sano only real threat with Cruz out tonight, should of not seen a strike all night. That’s on TLR.

Never pay for the past performances of a RP.

See Koch, Robertson...even Dotel and Linebrink.

We've always been better off, at least since Roberto Hernandez finding guys on the cheap or internally, the Sergio Santoses, Martes and Bobby Jenks of the world, Tom Gordon, Keith Foulke, Howry, Tom Gordon, Takatsu, Hermanson, Crain, etc.

And that’s how your manager single-handily risks destroying all momentum.  Publicly shame one of your hottest players and then follow it up with poor in-game decision-making that helps cost you a game that would have further buried a key divisional rival.  Oh well, at least Jerry can feel better about his great regrets at least.

Yeah, that’s another game he managed poorly late.

Imagine being a cry-poor franchise and spending all your budget on a closer lol

So predictable. 

So why so predictable? Because we are the Whitesox ? Because we signed a 54 million dollar closer that everyone celebrated . Is it because we are playing without our Best players ? Is it that we brought in the best lefty in the a league to get us through the 8thbinning ? Why ? Seriously your so smart why? What would you do different ?

Here is the scary thing for me, and it's not hyperbole. 

I just didn't care at all tonight watching the game. Seeing them get walked off provided me next to no emotion. I'm so exhausted by the circus that comes with this franchise. They make it so hard for me to actively root for them to succeed. 

It makes me sad.

I have more respect for the openly supportive larussa guys than the closeted stans like you. Hilarious you felt the need to tell me to shut up about larussa as if it was degrading peoples fanhoods. Let Dr Phil know your true feelings, maybe you'll feel better. 

What you want is to degrade people as it makes you feel good about yourself. So champ you feel good now right??? 

I'm not a LaRussa fan I really dont think anyone is but we are stuck with him so what's the point of pissing and moaning about it endlessly.

 

is this real life....

wonder what the Sox record is when TA goes O-for

Or a catcher who can only be in the line-up for about 2/3rd's of the games.

Agree 150%.  Bummer threw him a fast ball strike.  He should have thrown only sliders.  Don’t let Cano beat you.

What do you do? Blindly follow and accept all his decisions? This is a message board after all. We can complain about the manager.

Wow... absolutely ridiculous. Is this guy really putting boomer baseball rules before the team? 

SF Giants take over the MLB lead for highest winning percentage.

Sadly I’m 100 pct with you. I started watching in the 7th and I think my job dropped when I saw Tony for the first time tonight without a mask on. He is just such a terrible representative of this team.  If this was college sports, I’m sure half the team would be in the transfer portal.

Have you lost your mind? You came at me for commenting on larussa, not a poster, and now you're crying? Countless posters have ripped him in this thread and you can't stop coming at me and then cry that I degraded you? Lol unbelievable stuff.

Fucking fire this old fart right now. Cut your losses. Put your pride aside and stop punishing the players for your mistake from decades ago. FFS. Motherfucker won't even stand up for his own guy because he... actually hit a baseball?

What is going on.
