Garbage, up and down, in and out. I saw where it was 10-4 went to get something to eat and nearly lost it when I saw the final. Tomorrow they'll get loss #82 guaranteeing them their 13th losing season since the start of 2007. 🤡 Not quite the gut punch of that Royals loss from ahead late in 2005…went to bed on and was absolutely shocked the next morning.

Chisoxfn Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 In all honesty - as much as it stinks - most of the young players did well at the plate and the pitchers like Smith did good - other ones who aren’t part of the long haul drove the loss. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Mite Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 (edited) Horrible loss but the kids in the lineup will not let this defeat bother them and will bounce back but the bullpen has been horrible the last 2 games almost blowing Monday’s game and the horrible meltdown last night.

Remember that game in 2016 where Robertson blew a 6 run lead in the 9th inning against the Royals? I remember I was driving to Millennium Park and listened to that whole inning in disbelief and it put me in a real shitty mood. Luckily I was headed to the Gelato World Championship so I cheered up nicely...but it took until the 3rd gelato. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinky Stanky Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I always say keep bringing in new bozos until you find the ones that suck the least. And this bunch fits the term “suck.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
