AV is going to step up !  Now who else? Looking at you Moncada and Pollock and Grandal.

Pollock doesn't have the opportunity to redeem himself unless PHer defensive replacement for Vaughn or PRer.

White Sox 15-11 their last 26.

That ball kept drifting and carrying.  Great 0-2 count hitting considering it probably wasn't even a strike.

Maybe not a strike but center cut an inch below the zone is not where you want to throw an 0-2 fastball.

Seem to be seeing Gausman alright

2-0 lead if Sheets hitting against the White Sox outfield defense...

Alright Lucas, odds are your are only getting that one run there. 

Shut them down.

He’s actually who I think of when people question if Vaughn can play 1B. They’re both listed at 6’0.

What an unmitigated disaster all 3 have been.  They should have just IL'd Moncada again if the dude isn't available. 

Springer tied for 4th all-time MLB with Ian Kinsler with 48 leadoff homers.

Grandal only caught a  couple innings Sunday, off day yesterday, and now not catching Lucas here tonight.

I was counting his dead money this time next season.   Might have to call it dead money now, today.

Even if his knees are gone, how the hell did he go from having possibly the best eye in the game to this?  It's really quite something.

Same with Moncada. He hasn't walked since the Yankee series. 

Grandal and Moncada are supposed to be the Sox OBP guys and neither is doing so.

I guess against this lineup you have to be satisfied with any 1-2-3 inning even if it takes 18 pitches.

Yeah, not only are they both not walking, but the swing/take decisions have been mind numbing, especially for Yaz. 

I sang the song of getting a true #2 catcher all winter, as in more than a backup, anticipating that Grandal wouldn't be able to go more that 80 games behind the plate. What I wasn't counting on was Yaz forgetting how to be a batter. Silly me.

Harrison has 3 RBI's all year. That's difficult to be this bad. Bring up some young guy. Why not? His production is so low it's as if Sox have eight hitters.

Geez, not too many years ago, Toronto home games were all sold out.  4 million per year.  Now where are they?

Well.

Same, actually still think McGuire was a fine move, but didn't fathom Yaz could drop off this much. 

That didn't take long.

Some fat no name goes 2 run jack on us. 

Meanwhile, Moncada is still recovering from COVID. 

 

Sox don't like to publicly acknowledge a bad signing.  Just keep playing them.

I think Moncada has the Livin La Vida Loca covid.

Prolly get swept 

God Yaz sucks.
