Gladney with 2 homers in game 1.

Hmm. Maybe I should go to the Durham/Charlotte game tomorrow.

Thanks. Maybe less Vera questions in random threads now. ?

Lol. Nah. I understand the point of gamethreads. It's cathartic for people to grouse and yell about things with like-minded folk. More power to them. I don't like to steep myself in too much negativity though. Just a life approach I guess. But man, the whole Dallas Keuchel experience and its trappings just enrages something in me. It's like every 5th day we get a painful reminder about the front office's incompetence in the offseason combined with the a notion of them being "ok" with punting games after a horribly underwhelming start to the season. Blah.

Is this where we talk City Connect jerseys? I've been pretty okay with most of them, but I just can't with these Rockies jerseys. https://news.sportslogos.net/2022/05/27/colorado-rockies-unveil-new-city-connect-uniforms-inspired-by-license-plates/baseball/

Dunno if James knows something, but I'm pretty okay with calling Up Yolbert and moving Sosa to Charlotte.

Hmm.

Sosa triples on a ground ball down the 1st base line after the right fielder somehow misplays it.

I want Sosa in AAA merely to get the Statcast data.

Sosa bomb. #10.

Even Davis Martin out here taking his lumps as a rookie would be better than this.

I don't usually do the gamethread negativity thing, but man this Dallas Keuchel situation makes my blood boil.

He's getting booed I imagine. How do we boo the front office instead?

It's completely unaccpetable to keep punting games by pitching this guy.

I actually am pretty on board with Gilbert TBH. I also really like Jett Williams for no discernable reason other than he looks like a roided out scummy high schooler in one of Kiley's videos? Maybe not the best criteria for selecting your 1st rounder though.

I think Jimmy's tweet was largely in jest by the way. He just checks some of the prototypical White Sox boxes.

So true.

5th inning didn't go so well. Strikeout, walk, line out, walk, HBP, walk, then pulled. Then grand slam.

Callis has a new mock. Picks 1 through 12 are hitters. This hasn't happened since 1965 aapparently. https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mock-draft-2022-historic-focus-on-offense?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage No Schultz in the 1st or supplemental round BTW. Since he's being talked about.

No W-S TV feed, but seems Thompson is having a very good start thus far. 1 H 1 ER 1 HR 1 BB 5 SO through 4 inninings. 56 pitches. 38 for strikes.

That is what Jimmy reported recently.

I blame the Cease meltdown on this thread. DON'T MAKE THREADS LIKE THIS.
