I have to think the return for Lynn will be nothing more than a lottery ticket. He might be good for another team, but he probably won't start in the post season until at least a third game.

 

s%*#, the Barbie movie might be preferrable to watching a Lance Lynn start.

Sox won't get their next base runner until the 8th. 

Should have been out of that inning with 1 run. Thanks, Elvis… for all the bluster about focus, what do you do with this, Pedro?

Absolutely no reason for Andrus to be on this roster.  God I hate Hahn so much.

Strike outs are soooo boring. Jake whiffs. Overmatched.

High contact lineup.

Benintendi just took a batting practice swing and luckily hit a home run.

Entirely predictable.  He had sucked for years but the Sox gave him a contract based on one good month. 

Lynn has to be one of the worst starters in Sox history this year (in a non-juiced ball season)

It is absolutely absurd how frequently Carlos Correa grounds into double plays. Really bad signing so far for the Twins

He is miserable. No GM in his right mind would give up anything than scrapheap guys for him. Baseball is in so much trouble because of lack of good arms and other things. Throw 99 til you have to go to surgery, rinse repeat.

Good line. You'd have to have rocks in your head to watch either.

That reminds me.  This White Sox team was built for a juiced ball.  Without it, most of their core they built around can't hit for power.

Remi whiffs. At least Elvis makes contact there for a single.

I remember when I played organized baseball when you got two strikes on you it was a matter of pride to not whiff. If you struck out there was a sad walk of shame. Nowadays analytics prefer u whiff. Very confusing. Nobody changes their approach with two strikes. 

I'll stop now. I'm out. Hope we rally and win. Too boring for me to watch the rest.

Anderson sucks.

Todd Ritchie. Jim Parque. Jon Rauch. Who else sucked?

I’ll bite… who is saying that…? And prefer you whiff as opposed to what other outcome?

2021 Keuchel, James Shields, Derek Holland, Dylan Axelrod, & Mike Pelfrey come to mind

Good things happen when Eloy elevates the ball

Worst ERA's for Sox starters since 2000. 100 IP requirement. Some interesting names on here for those of you who have also been playing immaculate grid lately.

Burger has to be better than that
