Yes, he’s gone full Hawk homer in his prime.

As a newly single man, I feel right at home.

Steve Stone will start being critical of the White Sox the minute Jerry Reinsdorf sells. You watch.

If you haven’t been throwing to the correct bases, yes. They have been throwing to the wrong bases, not holding on runners, missing cutoff men, bad baserunning, bad rundowns,  bat at bats, his entire tenor.

All s%*# they should have learned in little league. If we know the difference, does it really take a daily meeting to tell MLB players? How fucking stupid are these guys if they can't remember fundamentals from their T Ball days? 

I'm blaming shitty players. Most of these guys were all tossed aside by better teams. Was it everyone's poor managing or they just  have little talent or over the hill?

Or maybe you're right, Getz put together a major league competitive roster and it's the manager's fault.

Normally I would say this would be the time where we would clear the bases and then fall 7-3. Maybe he hits another single or draws a walk and keeps this going.

Sadly, the odds of us winning this game are like 0.001%.

FIVE came from the Braves...one of the very best organizations in baseball.

That hasn't seemed to help very much.

HISTORY

Another shutout, historic!

That's a plan. We have plenty of AA guys to run out there. 

I actually feel bad for the fans of other teams who have to watch the Sox when they play us. It’s embarrassing.

They all suck….outside of Wilson and Sheets, is there a single player on this roster who isn’t massively underachieving?

We’re not even close to making these games competitive.

Yes, 5 players the Braves would have most likely just straight up let go if the Sox hadn’t swooped in to claim their garbage.

Can it be “all of the above?”  A manager who shouldn’t be leading this team.  A front office that put together a poor, cheap, underperforming roster.  Players who realize this is a bad team with some just cashing paychecks.  An ultimately an owner who needs to sell the team.

That trade is just so ridiculous.
