Giolito has to have the shortest leash in the world with another off day tmrw.

Why didn't we go out and get a real CF? 

Efficiency:  Because they can get 2 utility infielders and a middle reliever for the price of one excellent outfielder.

Yaz has discovered left field recently. I think he's realized his bad legs are sapping his pull power. So now he's basically a slap hitter. 

Yaz finding a way to still be productive despite not looking 100% is impressive.

That was a high 94 mph four-seamer...how do you pound it on the ground 

Practice, my friend.  Plenty of Practice.  

There we go. THAT is what we need Yaz to do. If Abreu doesn't get the job done, Grandal needs to.

Slap hitter Yaz is better than .150 hitting Yaz

Or he could still be getting his swing and timing down?

Lift the ball!!

Wtf was that by Abreu.  He’s been miserable this series

He was absolutely amazing his rookie year there...or maybe 2015?

 

AV almost knocked McMahon's glove off right there.

He's barely swinging on some of these opposite field hits. 

Back in this ballgame!

AV to third is becoming comical

Thank you for the Yas instead of Yaz

Twins are down 7 now. At the very least we stay 3 games back.

Yup… I think his power will come around over time and we’ll see his approach change.

love how it took a few years but Yaz has reverted to that soft-single-hittin, bad defensive catcher the sox have coveted for 20 years.

Somehow not signing Conforto earlier in the year logically absolves Hahn of finding any serviceable OF option.

We will win this game.

That was the reason for why we didn't go and get a real OFer at the deadline last season. Oh Robert and Eloy are back...the offense will be great! When in actuality the offense was maybe marginally better than it was in the first half. 

We really need a Hahn rating button.

Lol, such a very White Sox thing.

At least he's pulling and higher EV/OBA.

He looks ridiculously frustrated right now
