Interesting how there's no longer a bunch of chatter about how he's a fat lazy slob who kicks puppies for entertainment and probably doesn't even like baseball.

We’re back to the solo homers deal, better than nothing.

This pitcher kind of stinks glad they gave him an out....although if successful its 3-1.....which it would be now anyway.   Here comes the pitcher to bat.

Hahn should be on the phones trying to trade Lynn as I type this…don’t risk another string of bad starts

No one wants to hear it when a pitcher is getting shelled, but Lynn's underlying metrics didn't indicate he was ever cooked. This wasn't a Keuchel situation.

They aren't getting anything of value for anyone but Cease or Robert.  As Tampa and Cincinnati prove youth is the better plan.

The Sox will trade to save money.

Giolito might be the best pitcher on the market. He'll have decent value even as a rental.

Not ideal

Andrew Vaughn lol

Everything about Vaughn is so underwhelming

Home Runs with men on base work.

We're going to need a 1B, maybe we draft another one 

AV abysmal defensively

He’s a terrible athlete by MLB standards.  He has to be a well above average hitter to have any value with being a negative on the bases and in the field.  It’s also hilarious the Sox thought he could play in the outfield at all.

What an idiot

The White Sox are James Paxton's Kryptonite.

Meanwhile, the Sox take the lead after Andrew "So Underwhelming" Vaughn's HR.

We love solo homers.

This team hits a ton of homers. If they could get ANYONE on base they’d score like 7 a game.

Should have assigned the new hitting coaches to the guys with power, but kept the old "just hit singles" strategy for everyone else.

Starting to think Katz runs the bullpen as it's as haphazardly run as it was last year.  

I like Santos but he's become the Jimmy Cordero as far as usage.

And Burger at 3B as well.

Didn't get to putting the game on the radio to the Bottom of the 6th. Sox took a 3-2 deficit to a 4-3 lead after back to back home runs by Luis an Andrew.
