4 hours ago4 hr Give them credit for finding ways to win.A new season high eight games over.However Castillo is a disaster plain and simple.Bullpen saved their ass again tonight.
4 hours ago4 hr Exactly what you wanted the 1st game. Season high (finally) 8 games above .500 and 2 games knocked off the magic number !Mune single and double and started a gorgeous 1st to home DP.Colson also 2 hits, a single and a 3 run bomb in the 1st. Bullpen great job especially Taylor !
4 hours ago4 hr Your first place Chicago White Sox packed their hot bats for the road trip and picked up a 7-4 win over the T_ins.They (finally) set a new high water mark of 8 games over .500. CLE (and DET) also lost, so the division lead extends to 3.5 games. Really savvy deployment of the pen to only use 3 arms to cover 5 innings. Castillo didn't pitch well, but he outpitched Kremer and that ended up being enough. With Kremer maybe being the best arm going for MIN this series, you take a win where the Sox never trailed even if it wasn't pretty getting there.Mune's defense was very key to this one with a pair of crucial double plays to match his pair of hits.71 wins sets a new MLB record for a season following 3+ years of 100+ losses.

That's a losing proposition. Maybe the Sox will get lucky and he'll retire after the season.

Maybe the Sox will get lucky and he'll retire after the season.I don't think he pitched badly against Boston or quite frankly even against the cubs. His defense really let him down against Boston and the home run he gave up was actually on a really good pitch. Don't think he was particularly good tonight but he battled his ass off and I think was finding something in those final two innings. Would rather see a start like this than Burke's last night because he kept the pitch count low.
3 hours ago3 hr Things that don’t happen often that happened twice today for the Sox:Scoring a run on a wild pitch or passed ballCatcher catching a pop up behind the plate in foul territoryDouble play started with the 1B stepping on the bag first
3 hours ago3 hr MVPs tonight were Taylor and Colson. KEEP IT ROLLING BOYS!! SWEEP THE CENTRAL!!!And Castillo - you owe us like 5 flipping starts of 1 run ball and at least a couple of playoff wins. Gotta get the starting pitching back on track.Our best baseball is still ahead of us.

2 hours ago2 hr Probably should give Beni some love too since he had an RBI single and and RBI double. He's pretty goodd at getting hits with RISP.

2 hours ago2 hr FYI Twins are currently playing short with a hurt Buxton and a third catcher they never play taking up 2 of their bench spots.Knowing MIN has limited PH/sub options might help explain some of Will's decisions with the pen and his own PHs
2 hours ago2 hr 10 minutes ago, Chick Mercedes said:Probably not. Maybe not. Sometimes you just gotta put the horses out there and let em run however.It won’t. You can get away with that in AAA, not in the show.
2 hours ago2 hr That’s ok. Thorpe is next. This is why you spend all the money and time with these guys. Now, sink or swim, and don’t stress about tossing them in

Now, sink or swim, and don’t stress about tossing them inActually excited about this. His stuff is nowhere near as good as Hagen’s outside of his changeup, but he hasn’t walked guys at all in the minors. Crossing my fingers. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by WhiteSox2023
