1 hour ago1 hr Eight Sox hitters in current box score with under a 700 ops.Murakami now sitting on the Mendoza Line exactly.
1 hour ago1 hr Mune tends to take some odd looking swings at pitches on the outside part of the plate
1 hour ago1 hr If this staff is giving up an average of 3 runs/game, the bats just have to be able to win one of them. Especially at home.Get a timely hit or two.

1 hour ago1 hr Confirming my suspicions, Mune has barely made contact with a pitch in the outer third yet. They'll probably keep attacking him out there until he figures it out. Luckily, he hasn't chased too much and he generally kills pitches in the middle third so pitchers really need to execute to get him.

Especially at home.Get a timely hit or two.The staff isn’t good enough to maintain that kind of performance and the lineup looks the same as always — mostly mediocre with some uncommon breakouts of offense.
1 hour ago1 hr I was really hopeful after the Toronto series that the Sox could take advantage of a struggling Oriole team! I guess not.
1 hour ago1 hr Just a bad day today with the usual issues that have been dogging this franchise for several years now.Bullpen coughs up another lead after the 7th inning, team scores less then three runs and they make two more errors.As Kenny said at one time, "it is what it is..."Not much more you can say or do.
1 hour ago1 hr Getz has put together just a horrible team. This bullpen sucks, and Quero needed to be traded in the offseason. Another awful use of resources.
1 hour ago1 hr Got to listen last inning on radio. Sounded like 1st pitch to Murakami was center cut fastball that he missed. Pinch hitting ain't easy

Just go like 4-15 with RISP instead of 2-15 and it's a won or winnable series.
1 hour ago1 hr https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/o/ohtansh01.shtmlOhtani had a very good first season at 23 but his age 24-25 stats average out to around a 105 wrc and maybe a 770-780 ops.That's a bit lower than most are hoping for from Mune, yes??? Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by caulfield12

Losing Hays and Baldwin isn’t going to make things better either. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by WhiteSox2023

Another awful use of resources.Argued all off season that Quero's value and his slower bat speed/lack of power as well as glaring defensive deficiencies were not making him a slam dunk add for a contender to automatically just annoint for a starting role.

1 hour ago1 hr 1 minute ago, joejoesox said:jordan hicks is fucking terribleHe actually was pretty good in his first inning, problem is the manager and GM has decided to put their 2nd best reliever in a opener role so now we don't have much else to throw out there.
1 hour ago1 hr 1 minute ago, joejoesox said:jordan hicks is fucking terribleHis SFG BOS era's last year should have indicated that well enough to send up a bright red warning flag.Getz tried to outsmart everyone but probably got conned in the process.
