Good news is even at -12 RS/RA they're actually right up there or ahead of 9-10 teams.

Big improvement from last year...but this offense needs some help NOW.

Maybe Quero, maybe Drury, but they need to do something to support the pitching staff.

 

Not sure if I want to see Corey Julks again, but he's been hitting pretty well in Charlotte, about as well as anyone else.

 

Obviously waiting on Tauchman Benintendi and Rojas as well.

How can the A’s of all teams find offensive players yet Getz couldn’t put together a Little League lineup?

I'm sorry, are you overlooking their top-notch decision making at the plate?

You ever read a sentence and just die a little inside?

Would be interesting to know if Pogofskys (son/s, father was original owner) still have their shares...or sold out to JR/Ishbia?

Said in one of the articles yesterday only 8 other shareholders amounted to roughly 15%.

$18,000,000 per shareholder, so if equal, would be $33,750,000 million in theory divided across 8 (at a $1.8 billion valuation)

 

(He/Pogofsky was the one partying with Clevinger and Zach Plesac when they were on the Indians/Guardians during Covid lockdowns in Chicago.  Leading to potential charges of tampering that concerned JR...leading to the White Sox somehow in this conspiracy theory wanting to keep Clevinger "in-house" to avoid a case with MLB.)

Well, one positive, it's much "easier" to divorce a favorite sports team than a wife.

Otoh, it's simultaneously more difficult for those who have lifelong ties to the team/fandom through family tradition/s.

Looking at the box score, seven hitters tonight played with averages under .200 for the White Sox.

Seven.

Make it now 12 of the 16 games played where they have scored three runs or less.

.556 OPS in 1994 at BIRM, .202 average.  31 years old.  Would have been the perfect year to play Michael Jordan in Chicago, if you had a time machine.  Can't copy and paste and get the formatting to hold.

This is reminding me of a bad season in OOTP except even in vidya games if you lose 110+ straight two years in a row most people have the good sense to rage quit and try again later.

I mean, the SP just coming back to back 1/2 implies 110 losses. It coming back to bottom 1/3 and well, we got a stew on for our own record again.

I feel like the A’s have been pretty good at scouting, drafting and developing hitters for a while now.

As a Sox fan, I can’t even comprehend what that must be like.
