The bunt was bad but garcia is just an embarrassment to baeball.

Good thing we played for one run with the park so lively

 

Runners in 1st and 2nd no one out. He was trying to bunt for a hit to load the bases. He just missed that and then Frazier was up. Todd struck out with a runner on 3rd and Lawrie lined out hard.

Jose is heating up.

The bunt was not bad. It advanced two runners. Melky does not hit Duffy very well. But, Garcia didn't have his head in the game

Duffy is not remotely on right now, White Sox just need to stop making stupid mistakes & get a few timely hits.

That's my mindset. If he hits a grounder & gets the runners over, it's viewed as a productive AB, yet he bunts, almost gets a hit & somehow he ruined the inning?

 

 

Frazier reminds me of Dunn -- lots of dingers, low average, lots of K's

 

If Frazier at 3B puts up a 50 HR, 95 runs, 111 RBI season while hitting .212/.309/.487 .796 OPS. I'd take it and be happy as hell (that's what he's on pace for currently through 3/8 of the season).

 

That is a vast improvement at 3B from 2011-2015, when we as a team put up these lines for a whole season at 3B:

 

2011: 10 HR, 56 runs, 47 RBI while hitting .237/.284/.340 .624 OPS.

2012: 15 HR, 77 runs, 61 RBI while hitting .201/.286/.314 .600 OPS.

2013: 15 HR, 60 runs, 63 RBI while hitting .236/.285/.350 .635 OPS.

2014: 11 HR, 63 runs, 71 RBI while hitting .250/.302/.377 .679 OPS.

2015: 13 HR, 59 runs, 50 RBI while hitting .226/.277/.345 .622 OPS.

2016: 19 HR, 38 runs, 43 RBI while hitting .218/.311/.487 .798 OPS through 61 games played.

Quintana pitching very well. I wouldn't really call that HR a mistake, either. Duffy not pitching that well, Sox should get to him soon.

Q keeping them off-balanced

I think it's safe to say that C has been worse this year vs last year.

Just awful by Navarro. Team gives away so many at bats

Yeah, I don't know how, but you're right.

strike zone discipline? That's not a Steverson quality -- he advocates aggressive swingers

Coats looks overmatched by MLB velocity so far

Yeah... Not looking too good so far.

They almost advocate corpse ball.

Another HR.

How sad is this organization that coats is the best dh option...

One of these years, Cooper will realize the Royals can hit fastballs

Yeah, this is a Q start

Long way to go, but terrible the Sox weren't able to get on the board early.

I know we somehow won last night but have you noticed Sox have cured the Royals' hitting slump? They hadn't been hitting at all.

 

What's with all these Royals fans at the Cell? Embarrassing.

Like Fathom said, our scouting is pathetic. Like I said before teh series, throw them straight fastballs and they will hit them out of a park like the Cell.

All because we bunted in the first inning...

Why is that? They won a WS last year. Should Chicago build a wall?
