It’s sad what this organization is these days. Yeah. I mean, JR didn't get as wealthy as he is being a dumbass or a horseshit businessman. There is no way he's pleased with how this season has gone. His multiple championship window is all but out the window. His young, exciting and vibrant team is now boring and lifeless. He's exceptionally likely to miss out on 2022 playoff revenues with the highest payroll in club history. Attendance is down, and they're certain to lose season ticket holders this offseason. Pretty much everything White Sox related is worse than it was when TLR took over. There is no possible way he's happy about that. Even if he doesn't care about winning, I am sure he cares about the finances, and those things have a ton of synergies.

Balta1701 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I just gotta write this before we move on. 7/17 with RISP tonight. That’s a .411 batting average. 5 runs scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 In Fegan’s article, it feels like they’re blaming the humidor at the park for the lack of power. Can’t wait to hear that excuse 100 times this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One major thing that we all see is that with right field being such a launching pad, the ridiculous lack of lefty power this year has killed the Sox.

fathom Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Balta, any idea how many homers to right the Sox have hit at home compared to their opponents? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about from a proprietary "machine learning" based system aimed at the gambling community? https://swishanalytics.com/mlb/mlb-park-factors I don't have full details on the underlying algorithm on this one, but nothing stands out about RF being unusually unfriendly - rather the reverse. I can't break out the White Sox vs. their opponents, but Statcast thinks that RF at the Rate is where everyone should be wanting to hit the ball this year. For lefties, the Rate is the most HR friendly park in baseball in 2022. and for completeness here's righties. Still HR friendly, but not as much as for lefties. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
