Much better slider….time for a bloop and a bunt and a bloop

I don't think we've seen a bunt yet have we? It's probably the only chance the Sox have. Swinging is obviously not working. Maybe testing Detroit's infield defense will do the trick.

"what's fun about this team is how many question marks there are, how many things could still happen to make this an incredible season for the White Sox"

 

Are you serious? This new guy is a dolt man.

He might as well be a pre-recorded list of org talking points.

Unfortunately it all fell apart in the offseason when Getz decided he wouldn’t even pretend to care about offense.

It’s probably way more on Jerry than Getz.  He wanted to cut payroll a ton and it was probably agreed upon with Getz even before his promotion.  There’s a reason Jerry telegraphed and hyped up a bum like David Eckstein as his favorite player during the Getz press conference, and that’s exactly the type of players Getz acquired (DeJong, Lopez).

It sure sounds like Getz preached to Jerry that they had to become a defensively sound team

What's the point of Pillar if he can't hit lefties?

He's a fifth OF at best, can back up Robert defensively. I personally would rather have Billy Hamilton, can PR as well and an upgrade over Pillar defensively. Should start Colas and let Fletcher back up the three positions to see if he can hit RHP consistently without unsustainable BABIP.
