I feel like if that was a Sox hit someone would have been standing exactly right there. Lately its just been miserable.

It's almost inevitable...revenge game coming back first time after trade.

    This is an important series. If the Guardians go on a big run, which isn't impossible given they have the easiest remaining schedule, Texas is the biggest competition for the final wild card spot.

  • I have been just trying to enjoy this improbable season, but I am getting a little anxious to step a boot on the divisions neck.

Oh look, Adell with another RBI

His line with the Guardians. Amazing that a player actually improved after a trade. Apparently the Guardians didn’t have “Lowered Expectationsssssss…”

Nah they would have struck out

Is it a thing, where you're down, 11-2 in the bottom of the 9th, 2-out, and you just get the game over? Is that a thing? That looked like a horrible at-bat. I hate when everybody's like, "whaddya swingin at?!?" But that looked like, "let's go home."

Lineup is so much better with the two adds and Genoa.

I would bet its easier to lose focus when the task at hand is to start a 9 run rally with 2 outs in the 9th. Also pitchers are likely to just challenge you to make contact to get it over with faster and since you cant hit a 9 run home run.

I’m sure it is, but Peters’ last two at bats were both against lefties and he can just not hit lefties at all.

Watch out if Ramirez starts swinging it again...

Adell mostly sucks and is on a run. Lightning in a bottle. Good for them. If the Sox traded for him, I'd be screaming for Getz's head.

But you’re not for awful Doyle?

Would have been a great fit, as this team is lacking outfield depth, especially against LHP

He’s lost the plot

Losing to these teams is a double whammy if Cleveland wins. Lose ground in the division AND in the wild card. Wooooooof. Need the team to show up for the next 2 games.

Also, who gives a crap if you think he sucks and is on a run. He has single handedly won them a few games already. Isn’t that what you want with a deadline move?

Damn this team puts you on a roller coaster ride of emotions.

1) TV announcer said Colson Montgomery is trying to find consistency. He has found being consistent. He strikes out consistently. He could have turned the game around in the 3rd inning with a single. Instead he struck out again. 2) I read where Mune has struck out 42% of the time this year. If this continues I wonder if the White Sox are going to try and extend him.

He's done more by himself than all four of Getz's acquisitions combined.

He's lost right now. Home run or nothing. He's still young and may get better with more experience but man does he have a long swing.

Yea man I remember the uproar when Adell was traded to the Guardians. Everyone just knew he was gonna be great there.

Twins winning...Cleveland winning.

Not a good night.

Adell's not a CF. I'll be KiteKrazy for a moment. You've become so accustomed to screaming about a 120 loss team, you have no idea what you're watching with a potential playoff team...that shouldn't even be in that position. Everybody mocked me for predicting they'd win more than 75 games. So....where is your 68 win team, now? Oh, they have 5 weeks left to play. LOL.

It would have been really weird for the Sox to keep Pereira and then have him go on the IL, yet again, for whatever, like he JUST DID. Dude can't stay in one piece. I understand, you like to root for dudes on the IL. I like to root for dudes who are playing.

4-1 guardians. f*** this

Yes, he would take the exact same swings on the White Sox, against different pitchers. I'm not going to play the "Oh, somebody had a hit who was available" game. Did he have his hits against a schlub?

Getz still chose poorly, regardless of what Adell does.
