Offense looks good so far. Pitching is awful, as usual. A three run lead with Cease should feel like a ten run lead, but he's just nowhere near where he was last year. Getting hit much harder then we're used to.

Dylan really struggled again tonight

didn't take long for the league to figure out Jake Burger

Yup that .900 OPS and .600 slugging and 3rd on the team in RBIs in about half the AB's of the guys ahead of him screams he's been figured out even if he hasn't done much lately. 12 of his 15 hits are either doubles or HR's.

I'll take a .225 BA and times where he doesn't look so good to have his productive bat in there when the next closest guy in slugging is Grandal at .437.

i'd sure like it if we scored here

Looked safe. Good thing they didn’t have a challenge.

Tweaked oblique during a swing, it looked like.

Thanks, the gamecast just said Alberto came in and Burger was out with two outs.

Gonna be tough if Alberto becomes our starting 3b

Sheets needs to be really good against righties and he is not even close. He will be back in AAA by next year or sooner. 

Alberto and Andrus back to back in a 2023 MLB lineup, is asking for the inning to end.

That bottom of the order has no shot.

Sosa pulled from the game in AAA.

There’s no one else we can give a shot too?

No team collectively rolls hands over hitting ground balls than the Sox

I don’t want to see him again in 23

On the 40 man? No, the 40 man sucks

Otherwise yeah, Zach Remillard is probably overdue for a shot, but...we're the White Sox.

its 44 degrees? jesus.

Lol, Keystone Kops, this is the type of crap that always seems to happen when the Sox play the Twins.

Here comes the implosion. 

Good lord

Remillard would be an obvious candidate. I get why they'd rather promote Sosa, but it's obvious he needs more time to develop in AAA.

Nice play by Grandal

Back to back outs at home. Anderson, Grandal  and Santos getting it done.
