Pedro doing his best to completely tank any value Lynn may have had.

It's such a waste of everyone's time that Bryan Shaw is occupying a roster spot

Just illustrates how bad the minor league pitching is.  Seemingly every day, I look at the completed box scores and just shake my head at how terrible it is.

I also think his stuff would have been way down if he tried to pace himself 

I think he could have gotten away with 96-98 if he kept the snapdragon slider. Idk what the sox did to his slider grip but his slider is way worse now than it was in 2020.

Crochet or Kopech?

I don’t understand how you end up trotting Lynn out there this last inning….

Would have been out of the inning if they played Colas as an everyday player like he should be, instead of a platoon player with non outfielders like Remillard playing RF for the first times in his professional career this season. Because White Sox.

I used to blame this on Tony, but this has continued under Pedro because Hahn is absolute garbage at his job and cannot properly manage his active or 40 man roster.

Cut him and bring up somebody who can play right field

Yes. Kopech didn't pitch in 2020 but in 2021 his slider was great.

I think they tried to fix something that wasn't broken and tried to get both guys to throw a sweeper. Fail. 

Both Crochet and Kopech came up throwing an 87-89 mph slider with short but sharp break and they missed bats. 

Sox tried to get both guys to throw a sweeper and they ruined a plus pitch for both.

look at the young twins hitters and how they work the count and remaind disciplined and calm....

compared to our spaztic, whimsical and undisciplined hitters who have no plan.

Twins hitters are literally on pace to break the team season strikeout record, FYI.

and here is a prime example of a strawman.... 

 

Kiriloff age 25   835 ops and 380 ob

Ed Julien  age 24  971 ops and 391 ob

Ryan Jeffers age 26   787 ops    371

You can see the unsold season tickets in the remaining tickets for the Cubs series, a few hundred sold since I looked at this last week.

$46 for an upper deck seat to watch this garbage? Hard pass.

46 cents....I'll check my schedule but I doubt it.

Absolutely no reason for Andrus to still be on this team.

I assumed that Colas would start every day against righties the rest of the season. I guess I was  wrong.

And how unimaginative they are to create depth. Shaw's roster spot should be used on waiver claims, relievers currently blocked on 40-mans, etc

Agreed. There’s no point at this point in the season
