I feel bad for him. You can't flip your bat unless you actually hit a home run. He must have allot of bat flips pent-up in him. That's gotta be pretty painful.

Well, it would be a fitting exclamation point to this potential series sweep to lose to our old friend Jose Quintana....

Weekend series was a microcosm of the season. One game where the starting pitching flat out sucks, one game where the pitching overall is OK but they can't score quite enough, and one game where they get great pitching and score at least enough runs to win but the lack of a closer comes back to bite them.

Agree with PeteWard.

I miss the commiserating on this board.

I am commencing to commiserate

Trayce Thompson looked good in his White Sox debut today. Looked good as in "at least he didn't strike out four times"

At the game.
I have seen TWO people with Zavala jerseys! Go figure.

Did he have family in town?

aka Loveland · « **Reply #10458 on:** August 22, 2023, 08:03:53 pm »

That was my question?! But it was in two totally different areas of the stadium.It was like I was in the Twilight zone - not one Ventura or or Konerko uni to be found. One was standard home the other City Connect.

Hmmmm. No posts.

Crochet has been a very pleasant surprise.

I was shocked to see Eloy already out with a muscle strain

BlackSox · « **Reply #10461 on:** April 07, 2024, 04:34:23 pm »

Agree about Crochet; not surprised at all that Eloy is hurt. That's what he does.

Where’s that sinking burning ship picture when I need it?

PeteWard · « **Reply #10463 on:** April 13, 2024, 07:36:30 pm »

I meant to put my comment on Eloy in purple

Jiminez, Moncada, Robert all injured once again. Think they've used 'roids in the past?

PeteWard · « **Reply #10464 on:** April 14, 2024, 02:10:30 pm »

Reds winning 4-0 after 3 innings and ESPN Gamecast only lists their probability of winning at 90.3%. Should be 100%; perhaps ESPN forgot they are playing the White Sox.

Hard to win when your starting line up has 6 guys batting under .200 and another barely over it.

FWIW, Joe Cowley claims that Reinsdorf wouldn't let Getz fire Pedro because he didn't want to pay two managers this year. Not sure if it's true, but it does align with the bizarre recent sell off those couple of players for cash considerations. Poor Jerry needs money.

Gee whiz, we really suck

PeteWard · « **Reply #10469 on:** June 04, 2024, 01:30:52 pm »

Yes we do. But read an article about the Birmingham Barons. The starting arms down there are apparently doing quite well.

PeteWard · « **Reply #10470 on:** June 04, 2024, 01:31:48 pm »

So maybe our pain will be short lived?

BlackSox · « **Reply #10471 on:** June 06, 2024, 10:09:13 pm »

Unky Jerry wants a new billion(s) dollar stadium and is launching a new regional TV network, all of which makes this historical level of suckiness even more histerical. What a maroon.

PeteWard · « **Reply #10472 on:** July 07, 2024, 04:33:14 pm »

Kopech is not a closer. I'm not even sure he is a major league pitcher

aka Loveland · « **Reply #10473 on:** August 01, 2024, 02:09:55 pm »

He gone!

PeteWard · « **Reply #10474 on:** August 29, 2024, 06:10:08 pm »

This team is a little snakebit. I know they suck and would have had the lead if they had not booted the ball around prior to the 3 run homer last night, but in game 2 last night Texas scores the go-ahead run on a bloop single (on a good down and away pitch in the zone) that Roberts misses catching by at most a foot and then Vaughn gets robbed of a game winning home run by a spectacular catch by the Ranger left fielder (who is only brought in as a defensive replacement that inning because Texas took the lead)!
