Chicago White Sox

Adolfo is 4th in the South in OPS, 1st in HRs, & 2nd in 2Bs. The power is obviously legit and isn’t be hampered by Regions Field (8 of his 12 HRs have come there). The BB rate looks solid at 9.9%. For him, it really comes down to the strikeouts as his K rate is a problematic 35.0%. It’s a shame he’s out of options after this year, because with a full healthy season this year maybe we see some legit 2H improvement in that area. He’s still only 24 so it’s not crazy to think he could make some major strides given how little development time he’s had over the past few seasons.

Hopefully he can make the most of this opportunity

Soria?

Thank god

Zack Collins needs to play against every right handed pitcher.

For who? Someone better than Frazier I hope.

Seriously, sucks Liam blew off Yaz, but he’s the least of our problems. And that’s not to mention how stupid it would be to use Kopech in a pure closer role if we ever want him starting for us in the future.

12% above league average against RHP...

Collins’ sprint speed is 12th percentile vs. Grandal’s 6th percentile. Meanwhile, Collins has a 112 wRC+ against RHP whereas Yermin has been put up a 47 since May 1st. How does anyone use Collins as a pinch runner rather than a pinch hitter given those considerations??

We have a couple, one of whom we decided to use a pinch runner rather than a pinch hitter. I can’t even begin to understand the thought process there.

Tony is an absolute abomination of a manager

I can’t believe we wasted Collins’ bat for a tiny increase in base running speed.

What the fuck?????? Why would you pinch run with Collins and not use him as a pinch hitter for Mercedes!???!??????

Yaz! Lamb needs to walk this this shit off.

Please save us Grandal

Absolute ? show

Stone calling him out too

JFC

How close does Vaughn & Crochet get you to Ketel?

He can’t hit a slider to save his life.

Yaz delivers

Oh boy...trade confirmed!

To me, this feels like the Sox paying in advance for future leaks. They do this from time to time so that Bob has some level of credibility, at least when it comes to the Sox.

Putting it in his article pretty much cements this is happening IMO.
