Everyone knew at the deadline they were short a starter and a lefty bat. The only thing that has really changed since then is Robert went from one of the best players to one of the worst. James Fox said it at the deadline, the organization didn’t really care about going for it this season. Fathom is on fire this thread. All his posts are right there. I do think your Robert observation is huge. I know I can be captain obvious, but his bat when it is sizzling makes a huge difference. If he is like this, resembling a singles hitter who is overmatched at the plate, Sox have no chance. Only way Sox can win is if Eloy/Robert are sizzling. It's contagious and all up to them and did I hear Eloy is hurt? Foot sprain? Yikes. No Eloy/bad Robert equals no wins. Early season Robert/healthy Eloy means WS title.

maloney.adam Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) Like I said, RR has lost control of the clubhouse because he’s not a good manager hence why he isn’t the answer for this team. He’s not going to lead this team to championships period. Edited September 26, 2020 by maloney.adam 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
35thstreetswarm Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) Tomorrow is a big game. Sox didn’t look lifeless in Cleveland—their manager took games away from them. They looked lifeless tonight. I hope Ricky didn’t succeed in sucking all the life essence from this team in Cleveland. They need to come out strong tomorrow—they can do it (Cubs lost 7-0 to Pittsburgh 24 hours ago), but they need to flush this away. This one worried me.

kitekrazy Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Well if you give up more than 2 runs against a Cy Young candidate you wont win many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 At this point we might as well lose out and get Oakland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Indians and Cubs did. Of course, the Indians and Cubs got to play us. Can we play us? Let's do another intersquad scrimmage on Monday to bust our slump! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) Sox have only one chance -- the LONG BALL. If Sox regain the upper cut home run touch, they win. If they don't, they strikeout and lose. The all or nothing hitting approach is fine, but I feel it's more conducive to being a .500 team at best. Cause u are not gonna hit dingers ALL SEASON. Hopefully Sox will get hot and go on a roll when the playoffs start. Sox remain the same team if Eloy is healthy. Capable of hitting 3-4 bombs a game.

iWiN4PreP Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) Can we talk for a moment on just *how* embarrassing this team is right now? I woke up today, checked twitter, and was shocked to find the twitter universe unanimously making fun of our white sox. Why? Because the team that has TA is hitting batters for bat flipping. It's one thing to be laughed at because we can't play baseball... every team goes in slumps, some massive. It happens. It's another thing to be laughed at because we are a hypocritical, backwards ass organization. That was a complete embarrassment. Did Rickey decide this? Someone else? p.s. the cubs handled that situation extremely well and showed how class of on organization they are.

We are seeing a young team that krapped it's pants at the fifty game mark. The timing of the playoffs is a coincidence. The collapse of Robert and malfeasance of the manager have been historic. The bat flipping is a silly sideshow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I welcome his passion for the White Sox He wants the White Sox to win, my type of guy. This last week has been a continuation of the dreadful Rick Hahn era. Last nights game was not only an enbarassment it has to be one of the worse games by a White Sox team in a long time. Giving up 10 runs to a team that can't hit its way out of a paper bag. I wish the White Sox management team had as much passion for the White Sox as Thomas does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, from Chapman to Russell to their racist patriarch, nothing screams “class” like the Chicago Cubs organization. What a joke of a comment.

Rowand44 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 To be fair, my hope is starting to amp up if Fathom has completely given up. 05 vibes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
