Jerksticks

I consider all of this to be completely your opinion. My opinion is that he’s the best catcher I’ve ever seen play for the Sox. I was alive for Fisk but my only real memories were mainly centered around ordering The Carlton Fisk n Chips from the Charley Horse in Orland.

Exactly my point this whole time. The guy they want to manage the white Sox is either being groomed or unavailable or undecided at this point. People act like the manager of the future HAD to replace Ricky and that’s so fucking dumb. It’s beyond fucking dumb. It pains me to read all the LaRussa trashing posts that are made through this extremely myopic lens. The team didn’t want Hinch obviously and for totally justifiable reasons. I happen to agree with those reasons. I wanted Bochy too but maybe he’s done or not interested. If the guy they wanted wasn’t available…then what was the right move? A place holder like TLR who has won the big game. I expect we’ll all be pretty darn happy with the manager they choose in the next year or two.

Been strangely uninterested in anything White Sox for the first time in 20+ years. Been a weird week. I’ll try to contribute here with this question: Has he ever faced off against Ohtani or any other guys over his 9 years in Japan? Specifically, did he ever take Ohtani deep 4 times in a game perhaps?

Fuck Cody Heuer. I was so pumped for him this year. Home grown for years. Thought he was ice cold in the veins with 97-99. He was our boy. If he had just continued his 2020 we’d be sitting super pretty right now. We traded Heuer and Madrigal for 1 out. The 1 out Kimbrel got that mattered. 1 fucking out.

Lol anybody on the lip reading?

Nice call staxxington. I like it!

Lynn, Giolito, Kimbrel. Dudes, you gotta find that extra gear for the playoffs. Gotta do it. You’re all probably top 50 pitchers in the league. You gotta be menacing. Walking people? What?

None of the micro decisions are worth getting mad about. The pitching is just shitting its collective pants. Gotta get some stud ass performances now boys.

If Heuer was just fucking Heuer this year…unbelievable.

Absolutely. This was a great outcome for us- lotta huge power bats removed

Completely disagree with your post but I understand your opinion. I’m expecting the Sox sweep or lose 1 game

The Sox have more talent than the Astros. It’s not really that close. Anything can happen in a series though. I imagine we’ll sweep them or maybe lose 1.

Absolutely. All the crybabies whining about Preller running circles around Hahn. Lol their team sucks and has so many huge contracts

Our team has sooo much more talent. I’m pumped

Lol. Look at all those 66k, 18-22yr old conspiracy theorists.

Yea. If Engel is healthy I’d seriously consider giving him all of AV’s playing time. All of it.

Good point. He definitely out-Keucheled Keuchel. That can eat some playoff innings for sure as a worst case. Feel bad

TA is our giant middle finger to the other team. He bats first.

I can’t wait to hear 40k chanting Lu-Bob, Lu-Bob. Maybe they’ll just do Luuuuuuuuuuuuu

Definitely a legit concern. I hold out hope that most of this was by design. If you were the Sox and Rodon coming off of those surgeries & missed years, wouldn’t the plan probably be 100-150 IP? With the division all but officially locked up in June, maybe this is by design. Wouldn’t that explain Rodon being pissed. He feels he can go but Sox are being extra cautious

Lol Eilish concert had 100k? Lol biker rallies? How bout the 10s of millions of college football fans crawling all over each other? Baseball, NFL, Lolla…10s of millions protesting…bikers So what’s the overall weekly attendance at all sporting events now- high school through the pros. 50 million+? A few isolated superspreader events lol? Yea let’s check vaccine cards at the pizza shop

Thought it was cool how Kenny called for the blackout the first time. Felt like word spread on the streets and spread fast. It was organic. Pure badass. KW was God. Then he called for a second blackout some other time and nobody did it- I can’t remember when that was cuz it sucked ass. And now I feel like that’s what I remember more, the second one sucking ass. Even though I don’t remember when it was. That’s how much it sucked ass. Forced. Not sure anybody has or will ever forgive the second one. BUT…this is a new era of dominance we are entering, maybe playoffs for a decade. We have a chance to take over baseball. All black would be a badass tradition for playoff games. Black towels too. It would be intense. Hope it happens. I forgive, I think.

Lol what year is this

The 8th inning is the only thing of concern. Everywhere else we should be better than our opponents.

Who’s that Randy Arozarena guy!?
