Really should have listened to me and moved Cease at the deadline when he had high value.  At this point I'm getting quite concerned that there is something more to this and next thing you know we see a DL stint.  

That first inning looked like he was tipping his pitches.  Orioles didn’t flinch at a few breaking pitches barely off the plate

Oscar!

That was a rocket!

Didn’t see this coming, tie game.

Man, TA has been robbed on 2 balls hit over 100.

All right Cease, the boys tied the game up for you, bear down and earn your salary.

I actually hope it is that he is injured, because the alternative is that he just sucks.

Cease is booty.

This ump is killing the Orioles

Sosa with a high flying wRC+ since his callup. But would like to see him improve his walk rate from 0% to like above zero.

Colas, smaller progress. But up to 67wRC+ from 47. 47 wRC+ I believe is called "the Leury". 67 I believe is called "The Moncada"

Colas only 1 HR behind Yoan now. And poor Gibson is just throwing junk over the middle.

Interesting. 

Robert says "don't forget about me!"

Feel bad for Gibson, getting slammed by this team.

Broken record alert:

Really glad the Sox held onto Cease

Gibson is throwing BP. This is fun on offense

AV with another bomb which would have been a homer everywhere on the planet except Baltimore but it’s a run scoring double, Sox up 6-4.

I wonder if the offense is energized by the Clevinger DFA.

"If you play well, it might not be too late yet to get out of this place!"

This pitch calling is just absurd

Sosa just refuses to take the walk.

Last 4 pitches were all balls, he swung at 3 of them.

We should develop this stuff. Hopefully our new GM has a background here.

He’s not the only one, the Sox have 319 BB’s with 1179 K’s.

 

 

Quite the series for 1-2 hitters

Both challenges in this game were such low stakes. 2 outs, man on first, even if you get it, it doesn't help THAT much.

4th inning. We've already scored 7 runs. Our Ace trying to hold the lead. Gonna need multiple innings from our lousy bullpen. Ah, the joys of White Sox baseball.
