Stop caring, season changes soon enough. 

Yoooooooo wtf happened here

"Kopech struggles with command in loss." What?! Wow there's a shock! Not sure which one is crazier, the loss or that Kopech still can't throw strikes!

Lost development time, Covid year, marital/relationship issues, TJ recovery, etc.

I wish I had that many excuses for not being good at my job

The hardest thing about watching this mediocre team is listening to Jason Benetti.  Last night was especially annoying.  He is the ultimate company man.  I find myself turning of the sound on the broadcast and not just for the Nationwide jingle.

The Sox catching tandem needs to go 

Remember when Hahn could've traded for Sean Murphy but he was too big of a p**** to pull the trigger? Good times.

I remember that in the final deal the As got back big league ready young pitching and the White Sox had literally zero of that in their entire organization?

Huh? Who could the Sox have traded that would have been comparable? System is practically empty on upper minors pitching.

Really, you're making excuses for a major league pitcher who was the #33 overall pick in 2014 and one of the key pieces in the 2016 Chris Sale trade. 

There are two things wrong:

1. Michael seems to having major issues with control. It's been happening for awhile. Whether it's mental and/or physical mechanical issues, they happen too often and they need to be fixed.

2. The Sox are also at blame here. Obviously the Sox don't have the right knowledgeable pitching coaches, or the ability to go out and find and pay a pitching consulting expert to come in and help fix Michael's pitching problems. 

Most non-dysfunctional winning organizations usually have the proper resources available or on staff to fix a pitcher, that the organization deemed having so much potential and money invested in. 

Btw, I don't recall anyone mentioning these factors of lost development, Covid, marital issues and TJ recovery, back in mid May when he went 15 IP, 3 hits, 1 BB and 19 K's in back to back starts.

zeby doesnt belong on a major league roster.

I agree he doesn't, nor do many other Sox players. However they make sense being on the Sox roster, since the genius Rick Hahn hasn't had a clue from day one in how to properly build a major league roster, or the farm system to supplement the Sox ML roster.
