Washington -20 and Colorado -51 the only teams remains with worse rs/ra numbers at this point.

Tied with Pitt and Miami at -18.

Meh, this team is just as bad as they are outside of 3 fluke games.

1 hit 1 error. I wonder how many times we'll out error our hits this year.

This is a game where you have one of the pitchers you’re hoping can contribute the next few years and 2 of the 4-5 offensive prospects you’re relying on, and it still looks like a AAA team facing the Dodgers.

Robert Taylor Rojas the only plus defenders...

Yeah, Taylor the plus defender who took a little league route on a ball that led to a triple earlier lol

Problem is Vargas and Sosa are obviously iffy (at best) and Baldwin is hardly a surefire everyday player, either.

But for now he should be.

 

(And even Teel has been scuffling pretty mightily in the last 7-10 days.)

Due up: bum, bum, bum.

Sosa is easily our most dangerous hitter vs LHP

In his prime he was pretty great...but that was 4-5 years ago.

Luis takes 3-2 fastball right down the plate 

Robert blown away by 91 mph.

Robert is cooked, there's no way we get anything special for him at this point.

I just don't think he cares playing for this horseshit organization.

38 homers two years ago seems more like five years...

 

Vaughn 141/457   Jesus.

Too bad The Athletic didn't have a vote on worst front offices lol...

Vaughn has never got out of a slump

careful he once had a 900 OPS in July you're going to summon @WestEddy

I still don't understand the fascination with Katz.   Cease, Crochet, maybe Martin, but hardly a resume,  The new Daryl Boston.

I can’t imagine how anyone can try to defend this complete debacle so much

Vargas has mastered the art of shallow outfield fly balls.

Once he gets DFA'd, other teams will realize they have to let other White Sox players hit and guys like Vargas will flourish.

No he doesn't.  Next comes a trade that will benefit him and an organization while the Sox will pile up more Vargas type players.

I know its hindsight but he really should have been traded after 2023. The "He's too valuable to trade right now" has turned into "Im not sure we can even give him away right now".

He's an immensely talented player that has spent the last 2 season surrounded by total garbage. I honestly don't think he cares either based off body language. Could be wrong, but it sure looks like that's the case.

Smith and Vasil...Perez has been fine.

What can you realistically expect out of Cannon and Martin? 

They're classic 4/5 guys.

Our new GM had to take time to learn the organization!

1/3 of his balls in plays are classified as "burner / flare". Dude is swinging a shanked 9 iron up there.
