Well Castillo actually looks okay but you won't guess that from the box score.

He can only throw the fastball for a strike. The change ups and sliders haven't been competitive pitches.

Well, looks like Castillo had a 5 ERA for a reason. Now it’s 5.30.

Vargas makes the routine play inning much different

I am going to think of this as a positive. The rest of this game will be a grind against a rowdy crowd. This is probably as close as a playoff game as these boys have faced up until this point.

Lets grind out a win.

Is anyone surprised?

Unfortunately not! When it goes bad other teams always get these two out hits. Bs hit to start this. Then a missed play by Vargas. So annoying!

Fedde was pitching better than this.

That inning was a whole lot of dinks and bullshit. Hard to be upset with what I’ve been watching out of him so far.

The same as he's been all year.

Castillo has pitched well. Really he only bad pitch he made was the double. Defense can't be this subpar

Fucking blue

Nothing like the good old fashioned 3 1/2 hour to 4 hour game in Boston...

This inning is completely avoidable if Vargas just fields the ground ball from Yoshida.

I don't think Vargas is horrid there or anything, but I look forward to when Colson moves to 3rd and Roch takes over at SS. This is assuming Colson picks his offense back up. Love the idea of having multiple elite defenders in the infield.

ATTABABY BENNI!

I can't wait until they DFA Benintendi, because I hate leadoff singles.

I didn’t need to see that the Cardinals claimed Pereira again. f*** off, Connor.

Vargas is passable at 3rd right now. Definitely could improve there.

Here we go! Punch fucking back!

Look at this team just giving it right back to them

Especially on a travel day. Guards presumably already in their Chicago hotel rooms.

COME ON ONE TIME

Kolson might be getting his swing back.

Roch taking over at SS will completely transform our defense IMO.

If Mune is here long term, is he a DH?

So far so good!

Gotta shine right here where we have runners on the corners and no outs - a situation where they’ve been pretty bad a lot of times.

Time for Bart to make a name for himself in white sox lore
