We back

It's always great to have baseball back. Hopefully this squad will surprise us this season.

There's nothing better than afternoon baseball.

I'm gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight.

It's opening day....let's do it right.

Please shock me.

Chourio gone for the first series. Stowers out for the second. The Sox catching a couple breaks early.

LET'S GOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Totally winning today.

Whoever had Andrew Benintendi and Andrew Vaughn batting cleanup opening day 2026, go collect your lottery winnings.

The past time is back. Let's roll. Surprise us.

Vaughn ready to go for Brewers.

Will be interesting to see if the hot streak carries over.

Beefloaf has his own thoughts on the lineup:

1 - Grindy ballplayer that told @HotDogLarry1 to pound sand on his #108Tourney endorsement request. Damn sure ain't worried about Sam, whateverthefuckhisnameis taking his position.
2 - Could realistically log significant minutes off the @chicagobulls bench down the stretch, but it would decrease their chances of moving up in the lottery
3 - The "Daddy" of this offense
4 - You wanted him gone, but now you realize you are going to need this man to hit, hit and HIT some mo' if you want to cash your RSW bet on the over for this team.
5 - Thank Christ they are playing him in Left Field
6 - Current and Future Legend. Can you pronounce his name properly?
7 - The most intriguing player on the 26 man roster, if he becomes a "Thing" or a "Dude" or even a "Masher", this is found money for a rebuild that needs a couple tree of them.
8 - Untradeable (for now)
9 - @RyanMcGuffey favorite player, but only by proxy because of who he was traded for....

BeefLoaf🥩 on X: "Your #WhiteSox Opening Day Lineup de-coded 1 - Grindy ballplayer that told @HotDogLarry1 to pound sand on his #108Tourney endorsement request. Damn sure ain't worried about Sam, whateverthefuckhisnameis taking his position. 2 - Could realistically log significant minutes off" / X

So many famous players on one squad. Wow.

Hello Everyone...

Here's to Hope for a really good White Sox season!

Cheers!

Misio is stupid talented but also still young and if you make him work he will get wild and tire himself out in 3-4 innings. Just be patient and try and work some counts.

I was going to start a thread, but instead will just say it here and plant the seed.

In my life of watching baseball, I've never seen a Rookie do what Colson Montgomery did last year, and be so disrespected/underrated coming into their second year.

He is the most underrated player in MLB.

Since his debut last year, he was the 7th (top 10 in multiple metrics) most valuable defensive player in all of baseball. He hit the 9th most homers, had the 18th most WAR and the 45th highest wRC+.

I don’t think it’s all that surprising. I would assume most people who expect a sophomore slump from Colson are anticipating pitchers “figuring out the book on him” since he only played the second half of the season last year.
