Chicago White Sox

I think we got same city taxed giving up both Madrigal and Heuer. To me, five years of Madrigal should have been more than fair for 1 1/3 years of Kimbrel, even if you factor the huge price elite relievers go for at the deadline. That being said, I wouldn’t lose sleep over the price if we were getting elite production from him.

Let’s give Kimbrel a lead that’s unblowable!

All good, I just think his collapse has gone well beyond normal regression and it’s super frustrating because Kimbrel should have been a huge postseason weapon for us even if it was as a massive overpay (which it was).

I feel ya, but get a six run lead here and I think we can all agree to give Kimbrel the 9th ?

There you go

Those two “years” were comprised of 36 total innings and he actually was very good in the 2nd half of 2020. There was zero reason to expect him to regress when he literally put up a 100th percentile xwOBA prior to the acquisition and was probably reliever in baseball with a HoF track record. I agree Hahn overpaid, but can’t fault him for Kimbrel’s absolute collapse since coming over here.

Bummer!!!!!!!

Lol…meant if Bummer messes up

This works for me.

So is Bummer coming out for a second inning or are they going with Kimbrel? Either way, Craig can’t come in with runners on. If you go with Liam and shit hits the fan, you got to bring in Liam to clean up the mess.

Damn!!! Bummer ain’t fucking around tonight!

Thanks Aaron!

K this fuck!

I think it’s pretty clear that Kimbrel needs to start clean innings. It’s a shame that Tony never figured out roles that would work for both him and Liam. To me, Hendriks should be the guy brought in with runners on base regardless of the inning.

Not a bad idea, but got to have a quick hook.

Bummer & Hendriks will each get one, as bad as Kimbrel has been not sure who Tony would give the other. Maybe Bummer or Liam gets two?

Tepera has delivered tonight

At least La Russa has a contingency plan in place this time.

Thanks, I’m in Vegas right now and the time change is seriously fucking with me, but five inning taking three hours has to be some sort of record.

Definitely bro!! Just let me know when you’re in town!

I can’t believe we have another four innings of torture ahead of us. Am I crazy or didn’t this game start like three hours ago?

Eloy is due for something serious

I’ve only recently become a tourist, but my heart & soul with forever remain in Chicago ?

My father disowned me, but there is nothing better in the world

Make em pay for that Yasmani!
