  1. When they went up 3-1 I thought, okay, maybe they’ll get to the bridge and make it another save for Hendriks. Then things fell apart and they didn’t get a home run. I switched to an episode of Seinfeld. It ended and I saw they were down 8-3. I said, “good move” to myself and went to bed. This team is so damn predictable it isn’t even funny…and I am the idiot who paid for tickets for next Tuesday night’s game. At least the tickets 17 rows behind the dugout cost $50 on StubHub instead of $78 on whitesox.com.
  2. Do we know when Anderson got hurt, or if he’s had this injury for an extended period of time?
  3. If I remember correctly, don’t some of those professional jobs require professional degrees here too? The most ridiculous part about protecting minimum wage jobs from immigrants is that there are jobs they take that other people will not take. So the anti immigration folks don’t have lots to stand on with their arguments. Use a guest worker program in the way you describe and see what happens to the economy. Like it or not, they will be the minority over time.
  4. Just got a great deal on StubHub for the Houston/Sox game on 8/16. Section 139, row 17, seats 7-8 for $81. Normally are $78 apiece. At least I’ll see a World Series contender live. The tickets were $47 before the game started. I waited and they went down $8. Niceee
  5. Yep. He’s under contract so as long as he keeps hitting, he can fuck off and be DH. Stop bringing the strippers to TLR’s office.
  6. Well Eloy can fuck off. He’s under contract and his injury history suggests he shouldn’t play in the field. They aren’t part of the problem but they have value, the other two do not.
  7. I always thought they should deal one of Jimenez, Vaughn or Sheets…and maybe Moncada. They needed to deal one of those guys to bring in some different talent if they aren’t going to sign anyone.
  8. How about this lineup? Anderson - SS Robert - CF Jimenez - DH Abreu - 1B Vaughn - LF Pollock - RF Zavala - C Harrison - 2B Moncada - 3B
  9. They got paid and their deals are guaranteed. Many don’t appear to give a shit about winning.
  10. If TLR didn’t have a new lineup every game, maybe they would be incrementally better. He can claim he is following the data to make different decisions but sometimes consistency is a good thing.
  11. If Grandal or Moncada could hit the way they have hit in any of the good years they have had, this team would be incrementally better. They might even hit more home runs.
  12. If the Sox make it to the playoffs, they will get into a hole like tonight and not come back while the other team adds on.
  13. If you get beyond the politics of this article, it brings up some good points about immigration. I wonder if more immigration to take some of the less than desired and also skilled labor would help some some of our economic issues and cut down inflation. It’s too bad that immigration is a wedge issue and not one that both parties want to solve since it would strengthen our economy. More immigration, less inflation
  14. The Vaughn fanboys won’t like that one. We tried that idea last offseason and too many people bitched. If this happens; I will gladly go out and protest at the ballpark with a sign.
  15. Ladies and gentlemen, that is why they need an actual right fielder and to move Vaughn to first.
  16. Good. Maybe mock them like so… ”Hey Yoan, maybe take it easy on the lap dances you get after the game from your music video and your $80+ million and try hitting the ball consistently!” ”Hey Grandal, we’re you always this bad when you weren’t on PEDs?” That’s all I have for now.
  17. I went for a run. Are we happy or are we mocking cheering? I’d be for mocking cheering. Mock Grandal and Moncada and cheer on the rest.
