Paulie4Pres Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Didn't watch the game at all. Watching the post-game. WHAT THE f*** IS THIS TEAM DOING AT THE PLATE?? Yes, Lynn sucks. But this team is fucking CLUELESS at the plate. The Robert at bats had to be the worst at bats I have ever seen. Unbelievable. Looked like a fucking little leaguer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 10 of the 11 strike outs were on pitches out of the zone. I think they were also all offspeed pitches. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Easy to resort to hyperbole but cmon ... these guys never quit?? We should NEVER hear that from Bennetti/Stone again. These guys DO NOT CARE. Case closed. The Royals have a horrible baseball team. 9-1 is one large LOL. Folks this pitching rotation all things considered is one of the worst in Chicago White Sox history. Cmon. Don't rat me out for hyperbole, just agree. And our STARS? Robert needs coaching so badly. Just fricking drop him a slider and you get him to whiff. We've got two major league bats on the the team 'maybe' in Vaughn and Burger. And Burger is so bad a fielder his value is not important. More hyperbole? Hahn should resign or be fired tonight. Case closed. This team reeks, is going nowhere and it's his fault. And his choice of Pedro? Cmon. Laughingstock choice. At least over the hill Tony had the team .500 somehow. My post may seem outlandish but I don't think so. This Sox team blows and it's Mr. Hahn's fault. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 "They don't quit" is a sometimes reasonable mantra for an amateur team that is outmanned. It's absolutely patronizing for a professional team. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He usually made it interesting but would finish off the save. Alas, no more. I hope Nick Padilla doesn't suck. He did tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 (edited) White Sox announced they have purchased the contract of Homer The Dragon from Charlotte.

flavum Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 Might just be a 2 out of 3 loss in KC. Rain today. Next series there is Sep 5-7. Both teams also have Sep 4 off (Labor Day). This weekend vs Astros is looking damp too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for 1 or 2 games, they easily could have lost every game they have played. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he isn't saying stupid crap like this, he's bad-mouthing fans and kissing up to JR. Robert looks like he has given up. Yes, swing at something a foot outside that was never close to a strike and sit down. The rest of the team looks lifeless, too. To me, Stone just represents what is wrong with organization. The Nile is such a long river. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why the White Sox lead MLB in Chase % at 33.1! We are the most undisciplined team in baseball. It's frustrating to watch. The pathetic reality is, Rick Hahn designed a massively flawed roster that has too many selfish and dumb players, that apparently won't watch enough video of their at AB's to try and make adjustments. This is also a big shame on the manager and hitting coach. Obviously the coaches aren't spending the time with these hitters, or the fact is these Sox players are just too lazy, stupid and have zero respect for the coaching staff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kids Can Play Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 The sad reality is Lynn turns 36 tomorrow. He is completely washed up! Lance never had other secondary pitches to rely on other than the fastball. That FB has lost major velocity, movement and location. Lynn is now 1-5, 7.51 ERA and 1.60 WHIP. On the other hand, what is even worse is the fact, we traded a young and very talented pitcher away (Dane Dunning) for Lance Lynn. I know a lot of people here liked the trade, but I was not one of them. Dunning btw, won last night and is 3-0, 1.72 ERA , 0.86 WHIP and is only 28 years old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
