I guess people demand more when the playoffs are at stake. There's just demand and expectations without perspective. 15 rookies made their debut this year. There's nothing from Latin America. Most of the starting pitchers are at career high innings and the young ones are babies pitching out of the pen. The last 3 series:Sox hitters HBP 5 times, Colson and Peters twice & Murakami . No Guardians were HBP in the 3 game series. Sox Lost 2 of 3Sox hitters HBP 5 times Antonacci twice, Colson, Peters and Quero. 1 Cardinal was HBP . Sox lost 2 of 3.Sox hitter HBP 2 times Peters and Murakami . Peters hit 4 times in last 3 series, Colson 3 times, Murakami twice, Antonacci twice . Quero once and I don't know what side of the plate he was hitting. Peters and Colson are beat up . 12 HBP to 2 for our opposition in 9 games . Record 2-7 in those games. And the opposition cries when Antonacci throws out his elbow on a DP ball at 2nd base and barely makes contact.Sox are getting beat down and beaten. Might need to show some anger. Can't be doormats. Make the other teams hurt. Show some True Grit and take it into the playoffs. ! LFG !!!!

Plus, his defense leaves much to be desired.Peters and Beni should both be in the lineup. They need all the offense they can get. I'm not a fan of this lefty/righty stuff when the guys who are playing are worse than the guys who are sitting.You're running out of time and can't be doing this nonsense.

I think the last thing they need is more opposing baserunners...

I think the last thing they need is more opposing baserunners... Maybe you don't understand how baseball is played. I'm saying they are beat up because we're getting HBP and we're not hitting anyone. Baseball has always been a game where you try to even those things out. Now I expect the Sox to be HBP more because of Antonacci. But for all those yearning for Peters he has to be hurting and Colson was hit on the wrist and that's why he's out.Between Venable looking like a Ghandi out there and our opponents using our guys for target practice maybe its no wonder Pham was brought in. I don't see any opposing pitchers being tossed from games. Maybe if the 1st inning is a problem for some guys try throwing high and tight and see if you got command right away . It'll make your away pitches that much harder to reach if you can keep opposing guys from leaning over the plate. Why do you think our guys keep getting hit? That's how you play the game. It's called pitching and there's a fear factor involved in it. Always has been always will be. I'd like to see our pitchers use the upper inner quadrant a lot more.

This is fucking nonsense.The White Sox have been HBP 92 times. Tied for 2nd with the... Red Sox. There is no correlation between being HBP and winning at all.Meanwhile, the White Sox pitchers have hit 84 batsmen. Only the Astros have hit more. Now, there's definitely a correlation here. None of the top 13 teams in hit batsmen, aside from the White Sox and Astros, are currently in a playoff spot.

Tie him up.
