  1. I’ve been Zack’s biggest supporter, but if he can’t consistently hit RHP then Seby is the better backup option despite his warts.
  2. I’m hoping, but knowing my luck it will be all ground & fly outs
  3. I hate that YouTubeTV is like 10 to 15 seconds behind some of you guys
  4. Lot of pitches thrown, but no damage. Now let’s get some fucking runs.
  5. That’s what the Kanny announcers were calling him
  6. Wow, Sosa promoted too! It’s really nice seeing some of the LatAm signings finally reach AA.
  7. With days off for travel, Kimbrel should only require two days off max when the team has three consecutive games. If we go the full distance (19 games) he could theoretically pitch 10% of our total innings in the playoffs, which would be super valuable.
  8. Tough year for Benyamin Bailey. Pretty wild that they started him in Kanny and he’s since gotten demoted and has struggled in the ACL. Still young enough to rebound, but his prospect status has definitely take a hit.
  9. And the real problem is the guys who need load management aren’t the one getting it. I’d love to rest Moncada & Abreu more frequently down the stretch so they are at their best come October. I’d also much rather maximize Vaughn’s playing time, both in terms of at-bats and playing the OF, so he’s prepared for the playoffs. Getting Leury near everyday playing time doesn’t help ourselves long-term if we’re not resting the guys in need of rest. And again, I’m not outraged by this, but definitely seems counterproductive and something that warrants discussion on a White Sox message board.
  10. We have a chance to get home field advantage for the playoffs and should probably not overly rest one of our hottest hitters who also happens to be young & healthy. And not sure how overplaying Leury better prepares us for October. I’m not going to lose sleep over this decision, but let’s call a spade a spade. The veteran is getting a start to makeup for being on the bench last night…there is nothing more to this that is feeding some sort of greater good.
  11. That’s all fair but Vaughn just sat out on Saturday. Don’t think this about rest, which is the concerning part.
  12. Leury must have some dirt on Tony, because this is absolutely ridiculous
  13. Oh fully agree, just feel like if healthy Gonzalez provides some defensive value in the event of an emergency. Blake is a tweener having a poor offensive season after multiple years of disappointment. He seems like the obvious guy to cut bait on, but not a big deal either way.
