If you check the postgame thread I called this. It is so frustrating that 1-20 Garcia is starting over Burger after his game last night. Also hitting him 6th strictly because he can swing the bat from the left side is asinine 

Wow how is Garcia, Harrison and McGuire batting in front of Vaughn?

Nice game Jake, now grab some bench.

Big game for Garcia today. 3-4 with a couple RBIs.

Obviously Burger doesn't fit into the White Sox plans.

Also strange, Harrison is a gold glove winner at second, third is probably Leury’s best position, and yet…

Everyone needs a rest day except Leury Garcia

Leury is a frustrating player but I dont think he deserves the hate he gets.

Honestly, I like Leury.  I like him as a utility guy.  He does get streaky where you can use him a decent amount in stretches as well.  The hate comes from the fact he isn’t close to an every day starter and gets used like one.  It’s not his fault how TLR uses him but it’s frustrating as fuck.

The worst part is that La Russa legitimately believes Garcia is a good baseball player.

This is like calling that the sun will come up in the morning. We all knew it would happen.

You mean trying to bench him for Leury, right?

I look forward to watching TLR try to fit him into the lineup at other positions upon Yoans return.

Burger sitting today. Leury at 2B, Harrison at 3B, McGuire at C and Grandal at DH, Vaughn in RF.

But he was 3/5 against Ray and didn't start in that particular game...I guess because Ray is left-handed?

So basically veteran Leury's first hit of the season >>> Burger carrying the team.

Kopech is missing a lot with the heater. It has crazy movement though.

He wouldn't get hate if he was used correctly. Why bat him 6th just because he can hit poorly left handed? 

What a joke. Clown college D.

Burger doesn't throw that ball away.

lmfao this team

hot start, guys

Inexcusable walk of lead off batter and then Burgers a essence felt immediately 

Error costs us a run, surprise

That shit was infuriating.

can't throw strikes, can't win.

Lot of bullpen work today
