That change is so dirty.

Well if it's one thing this team does well it's patience at the plate!

If he was left handed, I'd be more confident they'd at least punish the mistake pitches. Gil is the exact type of 6th starter profile I fear will give this lineup fits.

Cease might have 4 plus pitches now?

The location on some of these aren't very good. He's getting people strictly on the speed differential and surprise right now. 

If Sox offense continues to sleepwalk, the next two weeks will be very ugly. 

Looks like the Yankees are going to be aggressive running in this series

The Sox are who they are.

Those 5 games in KC aren't gonna be a cake walk. We haven't played KC well at all since we swept them early in the season last year.

It's a dangerous way to live, but I think Lucas has had success in a similar way. But he is also seemingly in an outlier with getting good results on high change-ups in the zone.

No reason not to.

Yankees innings: 20 minutes

White Sox innings: 5 minutes

I would be too with Grandal behind the plate.

Let's have a 15 minute bottom of the second to even it up

McGuire is probably gonna catch 2 of these games. I bet they're gonna run on Grandal at every opportunity. 

Cease is the perfect pitcher for this defense.  9 PAs, one defensive play required.

What's up with the empty seats? Thought this series was going to pack the house.

I think the post-COVID attendance bump for MLB is dead. Oakland drew like 2.5K last night.

Luis's stance looks even wider now. He's almost Tony Bautista up there.

Grandal for this plus next season as backup catcher and DH is a bad situation.  At that salary.

This team also hasn't exactly inspired the casual fan thus far.

Nice job taking that to the opposite field. If you pull that you're gonna roll over it. 

One of these days Yaz is going to start mashing, surely.

Especially when he's hitting like shit.
