maggliopipe Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Anyone else think the coaching staff has instructed guys not to go all out running out grounders? With all the injuries they've suffered from dudes running too hard to 1B, I think it'd be justified. I can't think of another explanation why TLR would let these dudes loaf it.

TLR moves in slow motion so he probably thinks everyone is hustling out the grounders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Lol of course we finally get a good lineup and the game is postponed. Can't wait to throw the games on Sunday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Welp. Now we get the AAA lineups for the doubleheader. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GamesToLove Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 The decision to make it a straight doubleheader is quite strange because Sunday is Sunday Night Baseball. Shocked they didn't make it a split of noon and 6pm to protect the SNB start time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Sucks knowing one of those games will be punted. They do have a day off Monday so maybe there is hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know these are jokes to some extent, but it really is a good strategy for teams hosting the White Sox to postpone games rather than delaying/hoping for a window. I'm being 100% serious when I say it gives the team playing the White Sox a competitive advantage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did win his last start against them. A few years ago, it seemed every game I had tickets for were James Shields starts. Those really sucked. The games were almost always over in the first couple of innings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Monday is an off day, so they may go Minor League Callup/Bullpen for one of the games on Sunday. Will be interesting to see how the lineups are constructed, and whether Tony's preferences to punt game 2 go up against the unwritten rule of slating a strong lineup for the national telecast.

They have a 6 man rotation atm and an off day monday. Literally zero reason to do a BP game or call up a SP.
