It’s crazy, because they leave and go right back to performing

So obvious Pollock is starting his leg kick about a half-second early.  He has no balance at all at the plate.

He's still hitting close to the Mendoza line and can't play the outfield

LH POWER 

Kopech not getting any calls 

I'm not blaming Reese, but if he isn't going to get pitchers extra strikes it's pointless having him behind the plate

Sheets dragging sac across his haters' foreheads. Hell ya!

Let’s tone it down a bit, he’s been awful in all facets of the game this year one homer doesn’t mean you pull your nuts out

Kopech’s control is iffy, but he’s also not getting the borderline calls…probably because his control is iffy.

Maybe Hahn's vote of confidence helped. 

Pollock forgot how to hit. Yet another player that comes to the Sox to have his career die. 

I don't think Pollock is all that excited to be here. Imagine playing on the best team in baseball and in sunny LA where it's 80+ all year to coming to Chicago where it's 40 degrees for all of April. 

Thanks ump.

More runs in one inning than what, like the last dozen games total scores?

If Kopech could find his command sooner rather than later that would be greeeaaaaaaaat

I don't think he went, but the home plate ump missed strike 2 earlier. 

Kopech's walking such a tightrope with command this bad right now

Kopech is Rick Vaughn with no glasses tonight

He's missing by so much, it's difficult for Reese to frame them, I think

Just like we all said we need lefty power in the lineup against RHP defense is secondary.

1.000 obp through 3 left-handed at bats so far this game ?

He played at ND. He’s used to this weather.

Kopech's shit moves a ton. it wouldn't be fair if he found the plate more. 

Welcome back Yoyo. God it feels good to have a 3B that soaks up everything over there.

2 HR's in 70 at bats is'nt showing much power, Leury has him beat with 3 HR's in 69 at bats

I'm also from Chicago, but now that I'm in Texas, I really don't miss being in weather under 40.

Gonna have to get use to the up and downs with him this season.

He went from being on one World Series contending team to another. Being on the Sox gave him an opportunity, if healthy, to play a bit more than he did on the Dodgers. I'm sure he was very happy about the trade. This is a great position for any veteran to be in.

Maybe you're right on the weather, but veterans sign with cold weather teams all the time. I don't think that's much of a factor for most guys.
