Is that a quote from Dante's Inferno?

Hahn-te's Inferno. I was definitely smelling brimstone when Mendick tagged up.

Did someone forget to wake up TLR to get the BUNT sign

The only thing that can save this season and energize the fan base again is firing TLR ASAP.

Don’t we have a first base coach that could have told Mendick to stay at first?

Or at least pinch hit in a one run game late.  TLR has the lowest number of pinch hitters used in MLB this season.

How the hell does Tony keep his job.  Meanwhile, get the hell off the team Sheets.

Because he’s a HOF manager

How is Robert responsible for Tony not playing him?

Come on brother.

How often is Robert available. Something is always wrong. 

Listen by no means do I defend TLR because there is no way of defending him, but some of these dudes are made of glass.

We're the only team in baseball without any available extra hitters or base runners somehow

White Sox petitioning the league for a 3 day IL for Moncada and Leury . (sarcasm) Robert off the Covid list but not able to play ? But sure bring in nobody to take anyone's place.

Robert is apparently still not healthy enough. There was a tweet somewhere he might be up for DHing tomorrow.

Why activate yet another player not healthy enough to play? That's a Hahn question / decision, not that he is ever held accountable here or by the organization.

We're smack dab in the middle of our window to contend for multiple championships I tells ya!

But we hire a manager which is at the end of the window.

i read that he would likely play the rest of the series but sit out tonight - which made no sense to me.

They both will share blame, but we can hardly bench Mendick for Leury's circus of comedy.

How about Boston (the coach). Couldn't he have said don't do it or maybe he said go for it knowing the Sox

I always laugh that Sheets was supposed to be the big everyday weapon that was going to turn around our fortunes against RHP.

If we made the playoffs (Fat Chance Now) and the opponent is Toronto, we’d be without the Selfish Cease and Graveman 

Also, thought it was very interesting that Bernstein asked Vinnir Duber it Grandal looks way thinner this year.  Duber didn’t answer but I have a feeling I know what Bernstein is thinking.

Well Steve it did not work.  He could do the same thing hitting 7,8 or 9th. Not leading off.  Stop being an apologist for TLR stupid decisions.  Worry about your legacy.

Didn't get to see this one tonight.  Looking at the box score, it seems that Grandal and Burger had a craptacular game.

I really don't think energizing the fan base is a top priority nor should it be.

Sigh, I miss the brutally honest Steve that jettisoned himself from the Cubs booth.

Hahn couldn't have fucked up the off season more if he tried.  

Im not even mad anymore, I just laugh at how bag this franchise is.
