They beat the piss out of the Twins last season. 

Last year the Twins weren't competitive. What happens when they are? 

28 pitches in one inning is going to mean the bullpen gets exposed once again...

TA is the one hitter in the Sox lineup who's pulling the ball too much

He threw like 25 against LAA in the first and made it until the 7th.

It's not helping that Sox innings on offense last about 5-6 minutes.

The Twins are doing it all wrong. You're not supposed to call for the ball when infielders and outfielders are converging.

How dare a rookie call off Correa!

 

That stat about Sox pitchers throwing the fourth most pitches in 1st innings is quite telling.

Because it inexorably/inevitably leads to shorter outings from all of the starters but Cueto.

Robert walked?

Hey look you don't swing at complete shit pitches and you get on base how about that

Haha running into outs again. Such a dumb team. 

How pissed would you be if you were the company that paid to advertise “Sox Walk”? Not getting their $’s worth at all

Robert laying off some sliders outside? Holy cannoli. 

Did he even tag him?

He missed him Tony you drunken fool

Now the Sox are even having trouble stealing bases...the ONE area they have excelled in this year.

Doesn't look like it, but probably too close to guarantee an overturn this early.

Doggy doo day care over here.

Seems he just barely brushed the side of the jersey.  Hard to overturn that one without a different angle.

Why run on the 1st pitch? Let Jose hit with a runner on and if he falls behind then send Robert. Especially after a walk like that. 

Didn't see the Mariners being more of a threat than the Guardians a week or two ago.

The idea of sweeping through the Tigers again isn't looking so good anymore either...plus we get their best pitcher in Skubal, even though he's a lefty.

Tigers are starting to finally hit. 

Twins are doing something right when Buxton Sano Polanco Urshela Sanchez and Correa are their "old" players.

Meanwhile, the White Sox instead of injecting youth have way too many guys who are on the wrong side of 30.

Everyone but Torkelson.  Another highly-touted enigma.

If you're happy and you know it clap your hands!

3 people clapped.
