Before I accept Stone's framing of the White Sox's star being hit by a pitch, we need to establish the Cubs being aware of the Sox having a star player and who that player is.

Vargas finally hitting over .100 now thinks he’s some tough guy

Isn't Brad Keller a known jagoff?

The free agent spending bothers me more for what they have spent it on, vs how much they have spent the last 2 winters.

Yes, this too.

Getz blows at recognizing talent...he just does. He is a friggin joke.

Everyone knows he's hot garbage except those lying to themselves.....principally Jerry.

I can certainly think of a word you're not allowed to call him (I personally would never be allowed to use that word 🫣)

How do you not hit someone after Keller did? Pathetic.

This Castro is terrible

I used it in person...before replacing it with jagoff here.

Warnings to both sides but f*** it, Castro is terrible anyway. Before you pull him, just tell him to throw at someone lol

No, not while the avid betters against them are making money.

What year did Getz become GM ? You don't become the worst over night. They were well on there way before he became GM . When the highest priced FA signing is 2 years $7.5M a year  in his 2 seasons and the budget is slashed  by a large amount and your income streams are demolished and your best players fall off a cliff what do you think is going to happen ?

What is it about Reindorf or rebuilds you do not comprehend ?

Getz isn't blameless but if I were to put a percentage on the blame Id put Reinsdorf at 95% of the reason the Sox don't win very often. The worst season is just the worst version of Reinsdorf we are getting now.

Hit him in July when he comes up next series. f*** it.

Wonder what the hell is going on with Jirschele

I got a phone call and came back to Jirschele going nuclear. What just happened?

I’d tell him him to stop making excuses but it’s just the same sorry excuse on repeat. Nope, can’t blame literally anyone under JR for anything.

Automatically absolved of any blame because you work for the White Sox.

JR not spending is obviously the biggest problem but not the only problem.

All we see on the tape is Jirschele jogged to his position during the warmup and suddenly the umpire came at him pointing fingers and shouting. Not sure what motivated the ump to do that, maybe something Jirschele said

Didn't realize that LouBob entered the day leading the Sox in xwOBA (tied with Quero). Seems like he'll probably end the day on top too since he's barreled two balls today. Will probably be our lone player with an xwOBA (barely) above league average.

Elko still a little anxious
