Vaughn is such a bust so far 

Not many things more satisfying than watching them lose when the shitbag starts.  Ahhhhhhhh.......

What an awful baseball team. This lineup has no chance at all this year.

I hope to god all these guys with value are sold off in June/July

AV not taking the next step

With a lineup this awful, Andrew Vaughn can't go 0-5. Just flat out can't do it.

 

Terrible lineup right now, Yoan and Eloy have got to get back into playable shape, and for a LOT of games in a row.

They just don’t have the talent and fire power to get anywhere close to .500 unfortunately.   Every day, there are 2-3 guys that shouldn’t be playing that are in the lineup, and then you have Timmy, Vaughn and Benintendi providing no power.

Eloy out 4-6 weeks

seriously is that b**** Moncada ever going to play again or what? Three weeks ago he was going to miss one series.

Wish he comes back soon.  Our D at third has been suspect at best.

Clevinger takes the loss and falls to 2-3.

This fking team....I mean, I think most of us knew this season was already over before May, but now these dickheads in the FO have yet more built in excuses as to why they should still be employed. Now, we all know it is a load of crap, but built in excuses are there, yet again.

 

Eloy Jimenez is now 26, in his 5th season in the majors, and is STILL to even play a full season.
Yoan Moncada is now 28, and has played arguably 2 full seasons total.

 

Safe to call this an all around failure of massive proportions.

It’s all just so exhausting.  It’s one bad thing after another (besides Liam’s recovery)

The roster being at a point where Haseley is in the lineup against a lefty.. yikes

A Sunday lineup on a Saturday.

the only team with a lower OPS in the bottom 4 of their lineup is NYY

This says a lot about the Sox lack of quality prospects and back ups. Team depth is shallow.

Can’t wait to see the 40-man on August 2.

Nice home run. And nice 2B by Haseley. Sox are hitting pretty well in Cincy.

Sadly the Elvis era in Chicago needs to end. Elvis cannot hit. My gosh, just bring in a second baseman and try the next guy. Elvis needs to leave MLB. Not good nuff anymore.

Problem is that Romy and Sosa have sucked even worse.

Benintendi now on pace for 0 homers and 29 doubles. 

Bottom of the lineup hitter gets them again. 

That was a lot of dough for an outfielder that does not hit homers.

Wait what....

Eloy and Moncada for being in their 20’s are hurt more as a pair than any 2 players I have seen in my life.

Queue up the injury crutch Reinsdorf, KW, and Hahn will use to not make any front office changes next off-season.

For the record Matt Holliday only missed 10 days, Eloy 4-6 weeks ? 

Detroit a full 5 games up on the White Sox now after destroying Mets and Cardinals...

could have just given Madrigal an outfielders glove and saved 75 million

Then the Adam Dunn 2011 excuse forthcoming...they're not going to be able to give tickets away for free the rest of this year... except to Cubs' fans.

Would have just banked that money to cover "losses" for this season. 

God knows how much is coming back from insurance payments as well...but would Lloyd's of London cover any Sox players after the past 2-3 seasons?

You have a point with Eloy, but Robert and Anderson are less dependable yet seem to always avoid scrutiny.

Games Played since Robert's call up:

• 309 Yoan Moncada (27)
• 266 Tim Anderson (29)
• 254 Luis Robert Junior (25)
• 194 Eloy Jimenez (26)
