Missed a meatball

Remember that year a few decades ago when they were calling balks left and right. Must have a "discernable" stop.

I'm not supposed to be critical, but Same Here.

Will prob never know.

The Mock did not have that slugging first sacker from Texas anywhere in first round.

Looking back, Lopez looking good. Arb status next year, then FA in 2024.

Thank you.

Which Manifesto is that from?

I have a very vague impression, and I don't know where it comes from, that Giolito does not particularly want to stay on White Sox. I had the same feeling about Rodon. I cannot back this up with anything specific. Just a vibe.

Giants will set him up with a few sessions with a Shrink, and he'll start hitting.

Oh man. I was afraid to look.

Sheets loved it.

I remember watching an interview with Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe shortly after the Sale trade, and he said then that Devers was a much better prospect than Moncada, and that it was a great trade for Boston.

It's been a while, but about 17 years ago Rockies brought up Tulo straight from AA.

Jake really hustled on that play, no doubt.

Where was he?

Where was our center fielder on that triple? Vaughn must have run 50 yards and Robert never came into view. (I'm watching the Tampa feed). He had to be dogging it. I'll never forget years ago when Andru Jones was dogging 2 or 3 plays in center for the Braves, and Bobby Cox jerked him out of the game right in the middle of the half inning.

FWIW, Tampa's TV ratings are very high.

What is his contract status?

Another 28 at bats and then he is right at .100.

Still at Kanny, I believe.

Hahn and KW are invisible, or so it seems.

Domino Theory

Sox now have 5 hitters in the lineup with averages below the Mendoza Line.

Sox need a player to get in his face ala Ventura/Bevington.
