KrankinSox Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Brewers up 3-0 on the Twins in the 1st with Corbin Burnes on the mound. Sox could be within 2 games of the Twins by day's end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 1 hour ago, A-Train to 35th said: Careful what you wish for because Eloy would have never gotten to that ball hit in the gap that AJ caught last night. We need runners that can actually run the bases, instead we move along runners one base at a time with all our DH's seemingly running in quicksand. TA went from first to third in 10.1 seconds in last Saturday's night game. We're lucky if half our runners can make it from home to first in under 10 seconds. Bring back Billy Hamilton, we should have never let him go because he can provide the outfield defense and speed this team is lacking. Not only should the Sox spare no reasonable trade offer to procure the Billy Hamilton or another actually capable outfielder. Perhaps they should also go after speedster Dan Vogelbock, who made it from second to home in eight seconds during his Mets debut. Also showed his plus speed with Pittsburgh. #TeamOldSlowFragileLikeTheirDinosaurManager #YouOldFossilYou #FireTony #StartBustingYourAssesWhiteSox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Not exactly the most powerful lineup. Come on Tony how many games do you think the Sox can win without hitting HR's especially in Coors . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Sox don't put an emphasis on defense, just rock em sock em out of the park DH's, only problem is our DH's don't hit the ball out of the park often enough to keep four to five of them on the roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vogelbach had a similar pace first to home on the second video. He has a 2 Statcast Sprint Speed, but goes max effort and pays attention to the play in front of him, which puts him in the top half if he was on the White Sox.

Which is exactly why Hahn has to go after the best Out Fielder available by the deadline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take it easy is the driving mantra the past two seasons, and that isn’t going to change until there is a manager change. Nobody is being challenged, pushed to give their best.

I've been back home about a week after six weeks on the road. Still haven't turned on the TV. I'm not certain I want a 2022 Sox game to be the first thing I watch. Perhaps a nice Stephen King movie. I have a dentist appointment today at 4:00. I'm looking forward to that more than the next Tony screw up or hamstring pull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
