DK has no clue how to correct this right now. He is batting practice and knows it

Also, fuck KC for trying to steal there.

Tony LaRussa, that you?

I miss the Pirates

I’m ready for that World Series run on the Astros, Rays, and Dodgers. It’s happening.

With all the injuries in the rotation unfortunately I think we might keep seeing him, and yes where is Robert's head tonight because it isn't in this game.

Doesn't matter with Robert.  It's a automatic loss every time Dallas starts now.

How we feeling about Stacey's "Silk" nickname for Gavin Sheets?

If one good thing comes from tonight (besides an awesome comeback) it will be that Nickname.

Make it so and make it stick!

Even though it should have been caught by Vaughn, Robert's effort on the triple in the 2nd was comical.

I agree, and the strikeout to start the game was terrible.  Especially strike 3 on a pitch that was never even close to be in the zone.

Good lord Keuchel sucks. You can see why he nibbles until it's 3-2, cause when he has to throw it in the zone it's batting practice. 

5.28 ERA now.  He was at 4.25 at the ASB.

Keuchel pitching worse than Arrieta against the Astros tonight. It's so sad.

He's a control pitcher without any control. The only thing he does well right now is field his position. 

I guess tonight is summed up by.....thanks Boston?

DK downhill slide started with the playoff loss last year

Nah.  He's had some good outings this year.

 

But these last three have just been atrocious.   I get he has had some bad luck.  But he's not even fifth starter good right now.

No defense for Keuchel starting over ReyLo or Lambert at this point

On the road as well. Gonna be real tough but our guys have serious talent so we have a chance.

yep, with the 3 main guys the Sox have out right now (Timmy, Lynn, Giolito), the next 10 days or so might not be pretty.

Can't disagree that wins are unlikely when Kuechel starts, but can't agree that terrible at bats and horrible defensive play doesn't matter.

He's here.  I don't have a problem with him starting this final month to eat innings, especially with Lance and Gio out.  But once they get back, Rey Lo should get the ball.

Let's keep Dallas on Friday night for the rest of the season, it'll be great for my social life.

In a touch of Soxtalk irony, Leury is pretty much the only one who showed up to play tonight.

He's been shit since Houston sweep.

You do realize Cleveland won't be coming close to the White Sox this year right?

Last 3 DK starts:

9 IP, 22 H, 16 ER, 5 BB, 5 Ks

Dallas is like Dylan Covey bad...who by the way I read is pitching in a Chinese baseball league?!?
