SpringfieldFan Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Well if it goes as it’s been going at least it’s better for me that they get dispatched because they obviously have no business advancing rather than have a close series and lose in a heartbreaker.

I think the FO and JR needs to realize this team just is not good enough to compete with championship caliber teams. TLR's dinosaur tactics don't help, but this team doesn't have the talent in certain spots and doesn't have the postseason experience in others.

Kimbrel definitely helped make it 9~4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Astros got the book on us for sure. Let's see if other teams take advantage of it next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team is not nearly as good as Houston. They are dominating every pitcher we have. Agreed, I am neither for or against TLR. I couldn't care less if he is back next year or not, but anyone who thinks everything would be fixed with a new manager is kidding themselves.

Completely agree about them being utterly unprepared to play in these games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would not fix every problem with the White Sox, but this particular manager is such a uniquely terrible one that just getting to mediocre would be a huge upgrade. We'd have home field advantage in this series at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
