The fact that LaRoche is sitting against a RH pitcher is the most encouraging part of that move. If he were just sitting vs. a lefty, it wouldn't be all that significant.

Sitting even against a righty, should give us hope that the Sox are finally ready to go in another direction, unless he's injured or ill.

I don't think there's any chance they're "going in another direction" with that contract, but they're at least giving him some time off hopefully.

 

Of course, the real irony would be if he got today off then faced a lefty later this series.

I want Soto to play as well but he's starting tomorrow night so I understand him not starting today.

 

If he is suppose to be starting more games how is starting once the last 5 games doing that? Flowers played in a day game yesterday after a night game, perfect chance to play Soto and didn't. Robin is full of s*** when he said Soto was getting more time, it is the same as it was before he said that

I can dream, can't I? I've been saying it all season long: "This team is going nowhere, this season, or next, with Adam La Roche hitting in the middle of the order."

If not even less. Well, at least LaRoche sits. One problem at a time I guess. Keep on with the winning, White Sox!!! I can't believe I'm kind of excited about a game that Danks is starting. What's wrong with me?!

I haven't been this excited for a Sox game since Opening Day. Take 3 or 4 in Boston and suddenly...

Well, the guy he's up against has more than a full run worse ERA and especially lately, so plenty of reason for confidence. Just need something close to a QS, hopefully. BoSox have some bad mojo - gotta keep our good stuff going.

 

And yeah, where's Geo? Makes the kudos for LaRoche benching more grudging.

His contract is a drop in the bucket, especially when compared to the revenue from a WC berth. Bench his ass and trade him if you can, including paying some of his freight.

 

I'm still pissed Flowers is playing 5 nights out of 7 wtf.
