Have woke up and decided I want to inflict some torturous White Sox baseball on my Cubs fan wife and our three children.  This will be my third and likely final game of the season, all of which will have been started by Crochet, with the previous games both ending in losses.  Can the Sox pull off win #32 today or will this be the first season in like 30 years in which I did not witness a win in person?  Can’t wait to find out!  Go Sox!

Well, I hope Crochet can last more than 4 pitches today.

That's 3 more than me.  I just can't. 

Sosa batting 3rd?  They have to be actively trolling the fans.

This is, after all, the organization that thinks Miguel Vargas will be a middle of the line up hitter.

Kids already whining about having to watch the “sucky” White Sox.  I’m holding strong…experiencing a team this bad helps build character and will make them realize the dangers of wealthy senior citizens with unchecked power.

Tell them they can witness history.  The Sox 107th loss of the season.  

These numbers need some sort of a theme at this point, no?

What good food establishments are on (of just off of) 107th?

Sosa shouldn’t even be on the team much less batting third. All this losing has gotten to Sizemore, his brain is pickled.

At least Crochet looking fire today.

Two guys in the lineup sub .400 ops.  Not a single hitter over .680.  I know MLB would never intervene on a team basis, but the Sox are so bad that the league will have to come up with some sort of new rules to maintain the competitive balance.  If not this off-season, then next offseason after the Sox lose 120+ for two years in a row.

God damn.  6 Ks in two innings.  Too bad he’ll only go 4 and the bullpen will blow it.

This may be the most embarrassing lineup in franchise history.

It’s going to be interesting to see how bad the anti-tanking rules ultimately f*** us.  A lot easier to rebuild quickly when you have top two or three bonus pools to work with for several years in a row.  And with Jerry not acting like a large market owner and a potentially incompetent front office, it’s within the realm of possibly that we are never a serious playoff threat for the duration of Jerry’s life.

Every single hitter in the Mets lineup is currently .680+ OPS.  Sox don’t have one…

I don’t care how bad of a situation Getz stepped into.  Thats dogshit.

Jerry too busy with his new network and helping turn the United Center area into what he wants the 78 to be which is a sports complex with affordable (ha) housing and sports entertainment mega site. That's why he's been buying up all the parking lots around the UC and partnering with the Wirtz's.

Hahahahaha Sosa does something dumb every game.

Yeah I don’t want to hear any excuses for Getz, his roster construction is a huge part of why this is about to be record setting bad. 

Schriffen just said the  offense has had trouble scoring runs over this recent stretch. What stretch is that John.? 2022-2024?

🎉🎉🎉Vargas got a hit!

Our most embarassing line up so far...

100 million dollar payroll next year, what kind of lineups will we see in 2025.

I think they might be even worse next year.  It’s about to get wild.
