QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) Does this count as being swept? Sure after ending up being a 1 game series lol

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 02:47 PM) Except I would take last year's offense if I could, 13th in runs scored vs. 26th this year. Plus the sox had 87 runs in their first 17 game last year.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) The White Sox have also played 3-4 less games than most of MLB, which is about 15 to 20% less games. And read my stats on the 2 teams that played only 2 more games one of which is Baltimore which is at least top 10 in offensive categories.

So yes the sox have played less games then everybody else. Sox have 17 games coming into today. Next 2 teams at 19 are cleveland and Baltimore. Sox have 138 hits, cleveland with 149 and Baltimore with 184. Sox have 60 runs, cleveland with 71, and Baltimore with 104. Sox have 58 rbis, cleveland with 69 and Baltimore with 98.

Sox are 29 in majors in runs with only 60 and that being only 2 more from last. They are last in hits. That's pretty sad

Never mind sox get at least 1 hit today

Would be just the luck to be the first mlb game in history to be played with out fans and the sox have a perfect game or no hitter thrown against them lol

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 02:13 PM) I wonder with this game being played and closed to the public how many people will be outside of the stadium. Is Camden Yards one of the stadiums where you can see the field somewhere outside of it? I could see dumbass people trying to throw things in the stadium or trying to climb fences and cause problems There is a street that runs right along the concourse in the out field. In order to get on the street you have a gate from I think both ends. I know when we went last year you walked into the gate at the one end and was able to walk the street. The street is pretty much part of the stadium.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 09:15 AM) To be fair, Samardzija has been an idiot since opening day. He hit Gordon on purpose that started a big inning, and then he hit Cain too. Apparently he was jawing from the bench last night before the Eaton thing. Hopefully it's over now. Samardzija is getting suspended. It's got to end now. Honestly Avi got hit first in that game. Samardjiza hit gordon in the bottom of the inning for Ventura hitting avi. Hitting Cain was the stupid part if it was intentional. I think it's about time to see sox pitchers not taking crap when their hitters are getting hit. Last night abreu got hit and sale then hit moustakas.

not unlike the nightmare girlfriend stereotype, Yordano Ventura waited for the long-term commitment before letting out all the crazy https://twitter.com/Ecnerwal23/status/591431425364111360

Venture should get a suspension. He's been ejected at least twice already. Needs to be shown to quit messing around

Cain, Yordano Ventura, Volquez ejected. https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/591425762701475841

#WhiteSox ejected were Chris Sale and Jeff Samardzija. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/591425671441862657

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:02 PM) Unfortunately these numbers aren't surprising. Royals are 4 spots better on team rank in bb% then sox but lowest in k%

Sox are in top 6 of k% and 27 bb%

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 07:46 PM) The Sox need a change on the offensive side, they need some new blood that don't strike out on 4 pitches every damn time It's the sox way. Always seems they bring in players that do better out side sox but come here and end up not working counts and swinging at crap

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 12:40 PM) Very statistically rigorous. How does this compare to the avearage hitter? Technically 5 rbi's is the average for 31 runners on but that seem pretty crappy to be only driving in 16% of base runners and leaving 84% of base runners on base. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/...b&year=2015

Its everyone in the lineup thats causing the offense not to be good. Stat on jose. He's had 31 runners on base when he's come to the plate. He has 9 rbi's but he also has 4 homers so take away the 4 rbis he's driven himself in and he's only driven in 5 runners of the 31 that's been on base in front of him. That's 16% of runners he's driving in.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 08:10 AM) This. The reason we're scoring 2 runs per game is because literally all the starters (except Abreu) are performing below expectations, not because LaRoche has a platoon disadvantage. Honestly even Abreu is not producing what he is capable of. He has been at the plate alot with runners on and in scoring position and strikes out or hits into an out. Plus he isn't hitting Lhp right now. He's hitting .143 against left handed pitchers and .091 vs starting left handed pitchers

Carrasco was a inning short of having opposing pitchers with 9 quality starts against the white sox in only 13 games

That's 15 ks for the offense and everyone at least once. 0 walks. 43% of the at bats were strikeouts
