Then Robert somewhat makes up for it by stealing 3rd. What kind of play was he not hustling on? Nothing is going to change with him, he’s going to show spurts of brilliance but will return to what we see most of the time, another Claudell Washington.

Btw, MLB Gameday had that last out as run/s scored before it was corrected, thought the jinx was on. Who are you holding responsible, me, or PaleAle? That would be the first accusation of corrupting the youth, here. It's almost like the White Sox aren't even trying to lose, today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Man, I think the thing that is so frustrating right now, is that the young pieces on the roster are indeed fun to watch....but we're stuck with a clown manager who still thinks playing these vets with no future on the team, to save his own ass, is more important.

caulfield12 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 (edited) Lee 34/54 in FG catcher’s rankings…that will rise with today’s stats. Basically league average is fine. Maldonado #54. Sosa just broke an 0/17 run… Edited June 22 by caulfield12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like they would be competitive but offense has collapsed this past week. And at least we didn’t sign a certain Cubs’ ex SS to one of the worst deals in the game, along with Kris Bryant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s nothing that can save his ass except JR keeping him since he has to pay him. If somehow JR spends big time this offseason on free agents and the Sox have a chance of winning next year then Griawfol will be gone.

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Thorpe dominated. Nice bounce back after the rough last start. Dare I say the Sox starting rotation looks above average right now? Refreshing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOFHurt35 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Off Topic. The Tigers are 6 under after today. What happened to the "great" AJ Hinch hire that was suppose catapult the Tigers into this eras Yankees? Or at least, that's what Sox fans told me when they skipped him for LaRussa. You're only as good as your players and as good as the health of your team. Period.

Heads22 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 I wonder if without an overwhelming fastball and spotty command, Thorpe's gonna be a long time MLB arm but he's gonna have his games where he gets shelled and some where he looks great, especially against bad hitting teams. Not the worst way to make a career. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
