Ya know what, I am going to watch them all in their entirety because of your post. I never really sat down and watched them in detail. I was usually watching them while doing something else.

I feel like that is a perfect metaphor for Sox fandom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T R U Posted April 20, 2024 Share Posted April 20, 2024 Crochet has gotten worse each start pretty much. Already losing velocity, becoming less effective each start. Dude I don’t even use my little league pitchers as irresponsible as the White Sox are with their million dollar asset. And I’m a 39 year old dad trying to win a spring season trophy. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the guy just torched the Yankees and threw 120 pitches and the Sox were apparently stupid for even trying him as a starter. Amusingly, it's a similar cast of voices in the 10 concurrent threads whining about the Sox. I was looking at old threads about Crochet in light of his awesome postseason start and the comments in them were genuinely baffling...although not necessarily surprising. People just like to whine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably something to do with having the 5th worst record in baseball from 2011-2025 (15 seasons)...goes down even more if you take out 2012. 1. Dodgers (1392-939) 2. Cardinals 3. Braves 4. Rays 5. Brewers 10. Cubs (1182-1150) 22. Reds 23. Pirates 24. Twins 25. Royals 26. White Sox (1029-1302) 71-91 average 27. Marlins 28. Rockies https://www.statmuse.com/mlb/ask/mlb-teams-records-over-the-last-15-years If you go back to 2001-2025, Royals Rockies Pirates Orioles Marlins Tigers Reds White Sox are the worst.

Rockies https://www.statmuse.com/mlb/ask/mlb-teams-records-over-the-last-15-years Precisely, people make emotion-fueled arguments that tend to defy reason and sound judgement. Wouldn't trust the ability to make a reasonable evaluation about the sport. Find it curious as to why people are so interested in ragebaiting themselves. I'm not sure if that was the point you were trying to make. Edited October 1 by nrockway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
