The goal of the game for both teams in that situation is to finish the game as quickly as possible. Swinging at pitches is more likely to result in outs than not swinging at pitches, thus ending the game more quickly. What is the logic in not swinging?

Don't forget to add Collins into the discussion. There were people who thought he couldn't even play at the MLB level six months ago. He has shown himself to be a competent defensive catcher with some valuable attributes as a hitter

JR isn't listening and hasn't listened for 40 years.

Don't use the word hamstring around the white sox

I couldn't watch the game. Did Hendrick's running have any impact on the outcome?

I wonder if Ben Zobrist has kept himself in baseball shape?

you are being kind to limit it to "most of us"

Collins has a better OPS than Vaughn at the time of Eloy's return. Both are good

Rich Hill wouldn't be a bad addition if you were sure Kopech would eventually be in MLB in 2020

Finally, Jason Kinander was correct the Pederson is coming to Chicago

baseball is a game of inches

We were short one player whose first name begins with Y after letting Yolmer walk. Good to see they filled this need in the off season

the only way you get to leave JR is by firing or death

pat smith genderless and generic without any indication of ethnic or racial makeup

I seem to recall that sometime around the time of his signing his most recent contract that Quintana said he wanted to be in Chicago as his home even beyond baseball and that the extra money wasn't as important to him as being able to stay in this city.

Its a retroactive assessment that assumes a world series championship. There is no need for increasing the chances because it is a certainty. If a move was made and that move directly results in winning a world series, the move is justified. It's not specific to this situations
