No reason that Alberto, Zavala, and Marisnick should all be in the same game at the same time. Alberto at least hitting well recently. Zavala has been merely another Colas Romy Sosa Andrus at the bottom...rally killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 How many times this year have the White Sox had scoring opportunities like in the second and came up with nothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 The Sox have scored three runs or less in 25 of the 45 games played. 55% of all games. That's what happens when you have a few automatic outs in the lineup to go along with a bunch of undisciplined free swingers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxrwhite Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Errors and bad base running. It doesn't seem to matter who the players are or who is running the show. This seems to be an eternal White Sox trademark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 The Sox are actually lead The MLB in least caught stealing for the second straight season. 2023: 2 CS, 25 SB (92.6%) #2 = 4 CS 2022: 10 CS, 58 SB (85.3%) #2 = 16 CS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hard to win games with not scoring with the bases loaded and no outs, not taking walks and awful defense as shown by TA today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I sure hope Colson works out, because I think he’ll have a wide open opportunity here if he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why we don’t score many runs with lots of hits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The additions of Santos and Middleton- the Sox may have something in the bullpen. And Kelly has been much better lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zavala magic from 2022 gone. All the way down to .156. CLE now 7-20 when scoring three runs or less. Sounds like the Ohio version of the Sox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to think they would come out with some fire this weekend after being embarrassed by the Royals last weekend but I really do not expect them to do so. Grifol looks like low energy. Not what we need with this bunch. IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true We are back to the old dilemma of the bottom 4 in the lineup having no power, and our leadoff hitter also has lost his power. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Those first two wins of the series (with homers) were making me think Sox were gonna go on a binge at least at home. They were awful today; as dull a game as they've had all season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
