|
| it didn’t help that he lacked knowledge of the franchise and was beyond cringey
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| He never seemed genuine. It all seemed fake to me

| the same names keep circulating for the job. Monaco, Onion, McKnight

| Not Sox, but how can you not be excited about a LAD-MIL clash that begins with
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Just got confirmation that 75 Ks by Sox batters this series broke the previous record by 11
Posted by timmer
|
| Looks like only 6 times in the statcast era has there been a similar ball to the Ramirez one
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| This ball was hit slightly harder
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Hendricks left that breaking ball center-cut. Crazy how Ramirez scooped his ball out of the ground*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| I hate the Rays but hope so hard for a sweep
Posted by bjl63
|
| Also will root for the NL in the WS regardless*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Great season but man did they piss away a golden opportunity
Posted by AintHatin
|
| I wouldn’t call it great. It was good. It was fun. But it was still 2nd place in a bad division*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| I’d call it amazing. Playoff baseball after the past 3 years is almost literally unbelievable.(nm)
Posted by Waka
|
| it was amazing. bring me some starting pitchers and a few more hitters who make contact
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I’m ok exploring dealing Colson. Not sure how much value is there, though*
Posted by bjl63
|
| if only he hit .230
Posted by apusikam
|
| but mune and beni did get some golden sombreros*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| i don’t recall a single barrel tonight?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| 75 strikeouts in the series. That’s just the White Sox batters*
Posted by timmer
|
| Plus 21 from the Houston series*
Posted by timmer
|
| is 11 ks in between your 2, 4 & 5 hitters any good?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| so this series was pretty much a replay of how the regular season played out plus a shit load
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Got up 2-0 and then tried to hit a 3 run jack every AB
Posted by bjl63
|
| Lots to improve on for next year. Reinsdorf better spend some cash*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| And a batting coach.*
Posted by timmer
|
| Need lots of starting pitching (and so does every other contender)*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Fucking embarassing.*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Holy shit 21 strikeouts?*
Posted by illini21
|
| just when you thought jt couldn’t get worse.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Benintendi is pretty terrible*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| 5 ks in a row over the last 2 games.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Can we sell Mune back to Japan for some sushi?*
Posted by timmer
|
| golden sombrero. terrible.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| x 2!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| At least the pitchers had a decent game*
Posted by timmer
|
| yep.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Nice job, Grant*
Posted by bjl63
|
| chances of him walking in a run here?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I’m more expecting g a granny*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Bright side: haven’t walked a batter yet. Can’t blame the pitchers tonight
Posted by bjl63
|
| Did Grichuk have a play on that? Looked weird couldn’t tell*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Definitely. Spooked by the wall.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
| That Teel AB epitomizes the series. Can’t stop swinging at pitches way out of the zone*
Posted by bjl63
|
| as you know, i’m not a fan. hopefully, he gets jt together next year.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Was never healthy. I’m not worried going forward*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Just a terrible approach*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| nothing even close to a barrel tonight.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Hard to barrel pitches in the dirt
Posted by bjl63
|
| Feels like this was never close, but the difference is still one crazy Ramirez swing*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| ooo
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| These at bats are touuuuugh *
Posted by illini
|
| Take strikes and swing at balls. Good plan*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Colson is on auto-K and has been for months*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Profit…
Posted by timmer
|
| No one cares*
Posted by bjl63
|
| True story*
Posted by timmer
|
| they have gone from not laying off low breaking balls to high fast balls. unreal.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Dammit Venable. Stop managing by the spreadsheet*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Guess it worked but still hate that managers don’t actually manage anymore*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Needed Vargas to not walk. Whiffing Mune was a given*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Mune sucks balls. Big, fat, horseballs*
Posted by timmer
|
| hat trick after just 6.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| so many ks.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| 44 through the last 3 games*
Posted by bjl63
|
| and so few hard hit balls.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Let’s goooooooooooooo! (nm)
Posted by Waka
|
| One time, Mune*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| One time, Miguel*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| I think they’ve gone thru one average playoff game usage of baseballs by now*
Posted by timmer
|
| 23 K for Williams in his 2 games*
Posted by timmer
|
| Good job, Petey*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Chase swing at a pitch that almost hit him in the face. At least the game is moving quickly*
Posted by bjl63
|
| DO NOT TAKE BURKE OUT*
Posted by bjl63
|
| not to mention 2 hits off the end of the bat and a broken bat.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| The Kwan special*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Low line drive down the line. Not super hard wow*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| looked like he was partially fooled and still hit it out*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
| I didn’t think it’d get out*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| it was almost on the ground!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Fucking Ramirez*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| i can't believe that went out.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I hope that whiny fuck gets hit in the face*
Posted by bjl63
|
| lol…someone tell the Sox the object is for the bat to hit the ball*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| Williams is just filthy tonight.*

Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Just no chance at all*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Easy money.
Posted by timmer
|
| Too easy
Posted by timmer
|
| good start by burke.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| That unfortunately looked way too easy*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| miguel beating balls into the ground on the left side has kind of become a thing
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| not a great top.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Fuck Jose Ramirez*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Teel, Mune, Colson…
Posted by timmer
|
| just start burke?
Posted by apusikam
|
| What do you do? Just win*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| yes. beni dhing and doyle in cf. braeden not starting.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Not sure CLE is in a much better situation, but whatever happens
Posted by bjl63
|
| I think you open with Newcomb
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| agreed except hudson or hicks.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Burke is starting so maybe they’ll let him go
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Is Brazoban even on the CLE playoff roster?*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| No my mistake. So cross him off
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| The city of Chicago has never lost a winner take all game vs Cleveland. 3-0 all time*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| We cannot put Braden out there Saturday*
Posted by bjl63
|
| he's a mess.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Has to be Antonacci, Doyle, Peters on Saturday*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
| And if Burke is rolling please ignore the 3rd time through the order BS
Posted by bjl63
|
| Great AB, Beni. Yikes*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| awful for a vet like him.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| WTF is Vogt doing?*
Posted by bjl63
|
| These managers are insane*
Posted by Mrap24
|
| these umps suck (not that it matters)
Posted by apusikam
|
| yes and teel’s awful challenge in the 1st handcuffed them again.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Seems irresponsible to use Smith for 2 IP again when game is out of reach*
Posted by bjl63
|
| they do have an off day tomorrow, but it does give us more looks at him.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| golden sombrero for braden after 2 ks last night?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| This game is a really hard watch. 13 walks, 12 pitchers…*
Posted by bjl63
|
| wait til saturday
Posted by apusikam
|
| Just an atrocious AB by Meidroth. Should’ve walked on 4 pitches*
Posted by bjl63
|
| This series is like a replay of the regular season condensed into 5 games*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| That’s a big out*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| and the of positing has been strange. montgomery was basically playing right center on that double
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Didn’t seem like it was hit very hard*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Braden took a terrible angle, which is very normal for him*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
| I know the staff is on fumes but Will has mismanaged badly tonight
Posted by bjl63
|
| so I go to kay against ramirez or actually leave fedde in
Posted by apusikam
|
| i’ll agree with the last one, but last night was worse imo.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| it was a risk
Posted by apusikam
|
| all started with a hbp.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| To a guy who sucked all series*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Get Taylor out*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Series. Over*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Worst case scenario*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| Game. Over*
Posted by bjl63
|
| JFC*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| so why didn't we leave hicks in?*
Posted by apusikam
|
| well, he did give up a 2 run hr.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| he recovered ok*
Posted by apusikam
|
| this home plate umpire sucks
Posted by apusikam
|
| and cle has hit on all of theirs.*

|
| and cle has hit on all of theirs.*

|
| These pitches haven’t been close. Taylor is toast*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Taylor is cooked. game is on the precipice of being over*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Clutch hitting abandoned the Sox in games 3/4. Sucks*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| kind of, but this game is on the pitching.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Kind of. Left a lot of runs out there on the bases. We’re toast :(*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| Who’s left to pitch for the Sox?*
Posted by Mrap24
|
| may not matter.*
Posted by Ari Gold

| as always.*

|
| PATRICK FUCKING BAILEY. JFC*
Posted by bjl63
|
| With all the walks and pitching changes this game may never end. Oh and I don’t love
Posted by bjl63
|
| Yep, hate Taylor here*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Ugh*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| Gonna run out of arms to throw out there at this pace*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Defense!*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| One hit here please to break this thing open*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Let's go! Need at least one more here*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| kay was warning earlier. why not a lefty there to turn him around?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Fedde should not have started that inning*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Ramirez just kills us*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| I liked the version we saw in CLE much better. *
Posted by bjl63
|
| Guardians have been smoking the ball all game*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Patrick Bailey??? GMAFB*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Good work, Fedde. We need to make Messick work a bit more*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Good work, boys*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| CLE is back to their annoying selves. Working the count, fouling off a million pitches
Posted by bjl63
|
| A score (or 2) to get these guys some confidence would go a long way
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| They switched pitchers already?*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| they ran Hagen into the ground*
Posted by apusikam
|
| I was surprised Fedde didn't start*
Posted by Poldark "The game was fun and glad that Fitzee decided he'd had enough football and wanted to go slap asses in the shower room."
|
| Got out of that mess*
Posted by Taz Being an Illini fan is a goddamn curse.*
|
| walks!!*
Posted by apusikam
|
| The worst*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| So, tomorrow it's Kay, Fedde, Hicks, Taylor, and likely a few of the other lefties?
Posted by UofIL6
|
| H Smith is the opener according to Jesse Rogers*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| at least he gets a clean inning!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| yet he could not complete it*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
| Overall, I'm not too confident...but they've already far exceeded my expectations for this season.
Posted by OWWDig
|
| While they've undoubtedly exceeded all expectations...
Posted by AintHatin
|
| That's a good point...I'm probably rationalizing to help avoid the huge emotional disappointment*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| mune, peters, and colson with the hat trick. not great, bob.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| 19 ks. another record!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Seems dumb to have their closer out for another inning. Let’s make him work, at least*
Posted by bjl63
|
| interesting they’re using smith for 2?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Now all the dribblers and weak flies are falling. Karma for all the walks*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Yet another and of course, it’s Rocchio*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Kinda odd to bring in Martin here*
Posted by Mrap24
|
| He hasn’t been great of late*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Yeah his peripherals aren’t great and he’s been bad
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| must be going with kay and fedde tomorrow?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| obviously hicks and taylor as well.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| gross*
Posted by apusikam
|
| Both are better than Martin*
Posted by bjl63
|
| all we got*
Posted by apusikam
|
| what are they doing with martin here?*
Posted by apusikam
|
| Fingers crossed for a winner tomorrow *
Posted by OWWDig
|
| at least make their closer work?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| so many losing plays today.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| but stocks are crushing it!*
Posted by memyselfandillini
|
| Their barrels found gloves early, now their soft contact is finding holes
Posted by bjl63
|
| Those darn flares to LF against the guardians*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| why are we pitching to him?!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| could’ve easily gone to 3rd there?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Not gonna win many games striking out 14 times *
Posted by timmer
|
| that and all of these walks allowed.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| 7, not to mention allowing two hits to Bailey*
Posted by bjl63
|
| we love putting their bottom on.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| That's your take Ron?*
Posted by illini222
|
| Damn*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Two straight HBP in the exact same area*
Posted by timmer
|
| That side by side of Schultz and Kwan is hilarious*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| TBS agrees with me*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Dummy*
Posted by timmer
|
| Need to get some back here*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| that can’t happen.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Welp*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Oh, so NOW the contact play works? SMH*
Posted by bjl63
|
| he’s a great base runner.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| great ab there.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| That’s a terrible challenge by the Sox*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| very poorly managed to this point.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Working through all our lefties early*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| their 2nd pitcher has looked filthy.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| just a terribly managed, pitched, and played inning here.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I hate getting burned by shitty players like Jo Adell*
Posted by bjl63
|
| sucks that smith has to come into this mess.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| He’s probably the worst guy to bring in there. Better he has a clean start*
Posted by bjl63
|
| yes. 2 fucking walks score.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Fucking Rocchio*
Posted by bjl63
|
| not tough with hudson out there lately.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| get hudson out of there!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| He's been awful the past month*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| yes. very surprised he was used there.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| just a disastrous start to this inning.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| And, both review challenges lost in the 3rd inning. Great*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| So they made a big deal about a mystery ceremonial 1st pitch and...
Posted by aimlessillini
|
| LOL same*
Posted by Tbag
|
| First 2 guys on. Let's go*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| LFG!*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| great start for newcombe. place looks lit.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I expect a low scoring game today
Posted by timmer
|
| Of course, I’ve often been wrong*
Posted by timmer
|
| Newcomb starting tomorrow*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Better than Kay*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| last time sox won a playoff series at home was 1906?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Against the Cubs*
Posted by TarheelIllini
|
| never a doubt
Posted by apusikam
|
| i have really good tickets for thursday, but hope they aren’t needed!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| To be up 2-0 after Messick/Williams is pretty awesome*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| I believe we’ve won the last 3x Gavin Williams has started against us*
Posted by bjl63
|
| without a doubt. who goes for us on wednesday? smith?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| smith into martin
Posted by apusikam

Posted by illini222
|
| Roll with Taylor in the 9th??*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| yes. probably will have a rematch with rocchio too.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Probably but after the 8th I’m very concerned*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Same*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| Third time through rears it’s head again
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| So stupid. Sometimes they need to watch the game
Posted by bjl63
|
| That ball seemed catchable off the bat *
Posted by RD
|
| yes. playing deep and didn’t get a good jump. too bad they had to ph for peters.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| The glove touched him - no dice *
Posted by RD
|
| I hate Ramirez. Whiny ass bitch*
Posted by bjl63
|
| got what he deserved there.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| no way they can overturn that.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| no walks please.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Let it ride with Burke *
Posted by RD
|
| yup
Posted by apusikam
|
| Will was asked and said he was ready to go for what they need *
Posted by RD
|
| bruce levine thought both he and smith could. let’s hope we don’t need to find out.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Yep. He’s been untouchable*
Posted by bjl63
|
| 6 more outs. Amazing job, Burke*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Burke dealing*
Posted by Poldark "The game was fun and glad that Fitzee decided he'd had enough football and wanted to go slap asses in the shower room."
|
| hi detlef! beer!!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| hi nephew! leave Burke in. he'll face bottom of the order*
Posted by Poldark "The game was fun and glad that Fitzee decided he'd had enough football and wanted to go slap asses in the shower room."
|
| Chase! *
Posted by RD
|
| 2 out RBIs kill. Guardians starting to feel the pressure.*

|
| Montgomery from the right, BJL *

|
| huge. after that poor 3-1 pop up from pham.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Braden!*

| Not that I’m a fan but ACS is gonna upend the sport when MLB implements it*

| No one knows what a check swing actually is anyway*

|
| Right but a lot of people think they do
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Nice, Mune*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| I get using a lefty opener against cleveland
Posted by apusikam
|
| kay has been more of a starter?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Love Antonacci, but he is the king at blowing ball/strike reviews in non leverage situations*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| It nearly had the whole ball in the zone - that’s some dumbass shit *
Posted by RD
|
| and then grounds into a tailor made dp!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| wtf sam? an 0-1 pitch? come on.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| well. one run was going to score anyway. some strangely hit balls, but you can't keep giving
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| oof.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| This. First time playing from behind in the postseason. :-(
Posted by osklister
|
| kay leaves a tough spot for newcombe. 2nd and 3rd with 1 out.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Kay starting tomorrow, backed by Burke*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Poll: Not one White Sox pitcher will go more than 4 innings In a single game this post season*
Posted by timmer
|
| lol. wrong again.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| They’re definitely going to have to take an unconventional approach.
Posted by AintHatin
|
| If I had to guess no more than one third of starts in all playoffs
Posted by bjl63
|
| that didn’t happen a lot in the regular season either.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Grabbing that W with Messick pitching is pretty huge. Keep the pressure on them*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| AL getting that day off is pretty huge for the Sox*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| I like the way will has managed these game 1s. get the lead and make them win back to back games.
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| just a small town girl…*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Terrific Grant Taylor *
Posted by RD
|
| To get 6 2/3 out of Taylor and Smith is something else.*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Outstanding*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| wow!*
Posted by Poldark "The game was fun and glad that Fitzee decided he'd had enough football and wanted to go slap asses in the shower room."
|
| You can say that again*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| Grant Taylor goes this inning (hopefully quickly) and then batter to batter before Newcombe? *
Posted by RD
|
| let’s hope he can vanquish those 9th inning demons from his last appearance here.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I’m amazed that Braden, a natural RH hitter, can’t hit RH*
Posted by bjl63
|
| crazy.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Cue lol *
Posted by RD
|
| Sometimes better to be lucky!*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| Bird sighting!*
Posted by timmer
|
| So close*
Posted by OWWDig

| so many walks to the bottom of the order.*
Posted by Ari Gold

| curious decision to take martin out after 4 1/3 with 70 pitches and nobody on base
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Martin had an issue with his calf.
Posted by AintHatin
|
| and that flared up after he struck somebody out and nobody on base in the 5th?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| and key bullpen guys not used and a day off*

|
| CLE is on the road the rest of the season. Need to hope they lose a few*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Nice rebound after Friday*
Posted by bjl63
|
| OAK puts up 2 on CLE in top of 1. CLE then scores 5, without an out, in the bottom half
Posted by UofIL6
|
| They are a terrible offense too. The juju is off the charts
Posted by bjl63
|
| Good bounce back. Now do it again tomorrow*
Posted by bjl63
|
| so with a real starter going, lets optimistically assume he goes 6 and we are up a run or 2
Posted by apusikam
|
| hea gonna need to go 7 and not walk or hit the bottom of the order*
Posted by apusikam
|
| The thing is, this is not just a Sox problem it’s a baseball problem
Posted by bjl63
|
| but we have overused the leverage guys
Posted by apusikam
|
| And if Taylor and Hagen become starters then it’ll be even more of a problem
Posted by bjl63
|
| But Sox starters sans Burke are average at best. Need to acquire 2 this winter*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Wait, did the new guy take over from Chairman Jerry? *
Posted by osklister
|
| 6-13 in their last 19. That'll put a damper on the season quickly*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| :-( Was hoping we'd keep the Central.
Posted by osklister
|
| Allowed 6 hits to their 8-9 hitters. Plus an 0-2 HBP*
Posted by bjl63
|
| only had two baserunners after the 3d inning*
Posted by apusikam
|
| LOL. The axles are falling off the bus now*
Posted by timmer
|
| That’s all she wrote tonight. Horrendous game*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Bullpen so cooked*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| maybe if they expand the rosters to 30*
Posted by Sammich
|
| Get to 2 strikes and can’t finish the job*
Posted by bjl63
|
| they are all either cooked or bad
Posted by apusikam
|
| yep. tale of 2 teams at this point.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| They've burned the bullpen out. It has to cover 5+ innings nearly every night*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| That walk is the winning run for DET. Lockitup*
Posted by bjl63
|
| What a disaster. Stop give them free bases*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Of course*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| whens the last time we scored with the lead after the fourth or fifth inning?*
Posted by apusikam
|
| Thank you, Braden. Holy cow*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Even more impressive on the replay*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| hicks can’t finish another inning.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| good stuff and apparently no out pitch
Posted by apusikam
|
| Ugh, Chris Murphy*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| terrible.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| CLE was down 3-0 early, but like every other game in the past month, now have the lead late*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Smith has the goods*
Posted by timmer
|
| indeed.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Sox chase Sears with 2 out in the 1st. Up 5-1
Posted by timmer
|
| and then give 3 of it back by leaving sandlin out there.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| hagen should’ve been brought in a batter sooner, but did another great job.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| kind of a lucky win, but we’ll take it.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Needed all that luck tonight. Please can we get a blowout W tomorrow?*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| i dont know who gets you 27 outs tomorrow*
Posted by apusikam
|
| sandlin looked good last time out. schultz, smith, and newcomb? and hudson only threw
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Thank you, Miguel*
Posted by UofIL6

| Si*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| wtf?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Terrible decision*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| taylor back out
Posted by apusikam
|
| terrible.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| They should fine our relievers for every walk issued*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| youve overworked the shit of these guys
Posted by apusikam
|
| They have thrown a ton of innings*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| Man on third again with less than two outs and we can't bring him home. SIFUABS!!*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| Doyle should have bunted*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| You should almost never bunt
Posted by bjl63
|
| we love to strike out with runner on 3 and 1 out*
Posted by apusikam
|
| They work on it in spring training*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
| mune with his first triple!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Have the lucky horseshoe tonight, because play hasn't been great (save for Grichuk defense)*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| survived another really shitty walk in a leverage situation*
Posted by apusikam
|
| with a coin flip review.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| hicks cant get through an inning
Posted by apusikam
|
| nope. too wild.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Going Doyle->Rogers->Acuna->Braden is not ideal*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| nothing like a high leverage spot on the 5th
Posted by apusikam
|
| at least he looked good. dodged some bullets with fedde getting hit so hard.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I had no idea the winner of the AL Central is in line for a bye. Crazy.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
| American League has become the LeBron-era Eastern Conference.*
Posted by OB25
|
| I feel bad for Tampa. They should demand to move to the AL Central
Posted by timmer
|
| I feel bad for Detroit. 12 games worse than their pythag record
Posted by Sammich
|
| I feel bad for Detroit-ers, because they have to live in Detroit. *

|
| i heard this morning the montgomerys and mune have the 3 lowest ba in mlb
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| And top two in SO%
Posted by timmer
|
| With Mune and CM top two in SO%
Posted by timmer
|
| Colson is a lefty Mark Reynolds with slightly more defensive value
Posted by Sammich
|
| Colson is a tough one. Offensively he probably has no reason to be in the show right now
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| I’ll give Braden a pass as he was in AA to start the year. I groan anytime Colson is up w RISP
Posted by bjl63
|
| Colson: kickin' azz and takin' names from All-Star break '25 to AS break '26.
Posted by osklister And since July 4th this year.... kinda blah. :-/

| it seems like the montgomerys are always up with risp

| Well the only White Sox world series of my time occurred after one of the

|
| meh. they were over .500 in august and september combined. the issue was cleveland got white hot.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| well they did til they didnt
Posted by apusikam
|
| That team featured a dominant starting rotation
Posted by OrangeSox
|
| the Sox bullpen pitched 2/3 of an inning in that ALCS
Posted by Sammich
|
| It was unreal*
Posted by cpsteine
|
| Pre-playoff 2005, Sporting News had us with the longest odds out there.
Posted by osklister
|
| this bullpen is cooked
Posted by apusikam
|
| Shoulda kept Siranthony. :-((
Posted by osklister
|
| I’m going to mark this inning as the moment the wheels fell off the bus*
Posted by timmer
|
| not being swept by the Pirates?*
Posted by OWWDig

| yep. tires have been leaking since the trade deadline and last night they blew up.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Welp*

| Walk a dude hitting under .200, Walk the backup C, give up bomb to .213 hitter*

Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Noah Schultz in bullpen?*
Posted by Poldark "The game was fun and glad that Fitzee decided he'd had enough football and wanted to go slap asses in the shower room."
|
| he looked good!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Genius move playing Pham*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| and now acuna is up with the bases loaded, 2 outs, and swings at the first 2 pitches out of the zone
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| unreal. meidroth drops the ball on a tag and acuna isn’t tall enough to catch a liner just over
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Terrible error leads to 2 runs, of course*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| i was withholding judgement until this series, but it seems like they’ve just come undone
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Of course, runner at 3rd with 1 out....can't score him*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Clean up hitter in your biggest game of the season---Tommy Pham! Really?*
Posted by illini222

| Glad I inspired him*

| that wasnt even close to the warning track

| Kay v. Messick tomorrow isn't ideal*

|
| and this 2 inning save thing isn’t a long term answer either.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| no its not
Posted by apusikam
|
| I still go back to Murphy used as the opener. Gross*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| that wasn’t ideal, especially since he sucked the last they tried it with him against cle.*

|
| Rocchio is this generation’s Nick Punto*
Posted by bjl63
|
| that fucking walk to the weak hitting catcher
Posted by apusikam
|
| yep.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| and that looked like a routine fly
Posted by apusikam
|
| Playing shallow to play for the tie on a single?*
Posted by bjl63
|
| freddy garcia and ozzie guillen jr thought the same thing
Posted by apusikam
|
| i think so, but why not peters in lf?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Who’d play CF? Doyle was removed from the game already*
Posted by bjl63
|
| i forgot about that. why weaken yourself defensively, especially with the lead
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Yep, bc there is a 2B playing LF. Awful*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Can’t walk the #7 hitter*
Posted by bjl63

| Wanna make a lot of money?

|
| Urquidy optioned, Schultz recalled*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Think I'd rather have Drew Thorpe if you need a starter. Schultz in the pen may be fine, but
Posted by UofIL6
|
| And, they should just bring up Thorpe and launch Chris Murphy into space*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| why him tonight
Posted by apusikam
|
| Agreed*
Posted by illini222
|
| There was something missing with him. He had no wipeout pitch nor special velo

|
| 100 percent agree.
Posted by AintHatin

| big win. have the tiebreaker now as well.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Guardians also lost which is good

| on cue to start the 9th as well.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| bjl, can we get a mea culpa on hagen?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| He’s been great but I’d still rather they drafted differently

| JFC, Colson*

| And, now Burke has to throw a bunch more pitches*

| Bats finally come alive*
Posted by UofIL6

| (Mune exception)*
Posted by UofIL6

| Amazing what happens when you hit the baseball*
Posted by bjl63
|
| pretty lucky set of circumstances, but we’ll take it.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| what an ab for peters. 18 pitch walk!*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Maybe that AB unlocked these guys*
Posted by bjl63
|
| and then breaks up a potential dp with his noggin to score a run!*

|
| at what point do you need to start bunting again?*
Posted by Ari Gold

| b monty made an awful attempt at one and then ks. terrible.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| and the leadoff walk to start the bottom half. brutal.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Dreadful ABs*
Posted by bjl63
|
| Another Mune strikeout. Bench him. Also…
Posted by timmer
|
| He is good. Why is benetendi honoring Trump with the helmet ear tape?*

| Getting no-hit through 5. Great series*

Posted by OWWDig
|
| Jones for PIT working a no-no*
Posted by timmer
|
| Another game, another Mune strikeout. This time he challenged
Posted by timmer
|
| they cant seem to get runners in scoring positin home with less than 2 out
Posted by apusikam
|
| Another huge double play. That was a rocket though*
Posted by UofIL6

| Just getting rolled at home by the Pirates*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| They're barely hanging on
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| Cleveland lost, at least*
Posted by bjl63

| I’ve bet on Mune to strike out each of his six plate appearances this series
Posted by timmer
|
| meidroth has been pretty bad lately as well.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Yesterday, it was doubles. Today, it’s walks*
Posted by timmer

|
| Great gift idea for Reinsdorf
Posted by bjl63
|
| Here comes gas can Urquidy*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| Gets the hook after 1.1 IP, five ER and three still on base
Posted by timmer
|
| Burke faces four batters, three hit doubles
Posted by timmer
|
| you didn’t have a bet on that?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I bet on a Mune strikeout
Posted by timmer
|
| An out!!!!*
Posted by timmer
|
| 6 hitters in, 0 outs. Bullpen better be warming*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| What an awful outing. Just get him out now*

| Going to be another bullpen game*
Posted by timmer
|
| Five batters, four doubles*

|
| Magic number=16. Beat Pittsburgh *

| That’s a lot of games for being in the juniors. Congrats I guess.*
Posted by Toonces

| Sick burn, I guess*
Posted by cpsteine
|
| Solid bullpen game*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| hagen smith is looking good.*

| If (and, yes, big IF) he doesn't walk batters, he's terrific*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| 15Ks*
Posted by timmer
|
| This game got more interesting….
Posted by timmer
|
| I cashed out right before the 3R HR by the Twins*
Posted by timmer
|
| just another ruse.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| I’ll take Ishbia to get his stadium done before the Bears*

| Ugh, CLE wins both ends of a DH after coming from behind in 8/9 inn*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Murakami sucks
Posted by timmer
|
| Castillo is a complete trainwreck. I think the deadline actually made the team worse*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| The Luis Castillo trade made no sense to me at the time
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Seriously. It looked bad at the time and has only gotten worse*
Posted by AintHatin
|
| I couldn't agree more. The whole starting pitching on this team is a joke*
Posted by OWWDig
|
| what a disastrous 8th inning. incredible number of mistakes.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| faaaaaaaack*
Posted by apusikam
|
| Yep, top and bottom of the inning. Such poor play when opportunities were there*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| error, walk, and hbp when ahead in the count to boot. and why not have doyle in cf at that point?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
| Whether it was in or not, the contact play should never be an option
Posted by bjl63
|
| Romo missed an opp to score, nobody can hit in the air, Chase error on defense
Posted by UofIL6
|
| not running for romo too. and we have to be able to get a ball in the air.*

| There is nothing about Alteuve that doesn't make me think that's not intentional*

|
| Isn't that Grichuk's role?*

| Sure. But they are obviously thinking they needed more than one guy in that role*

| C. Montgomery is near unplayable at this point. Needs a fake DL stint for something to change*

| on an 0-12 with 9k run. wow.*

| Keith Law says Sox are leaning towards drafting Emerson and Roch is 3rd on their board now*
Posted by OB25
|
| I don’t believe for a second that Roch is third on their board*
Posted by bjl63
|
| He really wasn’t that great this year so I could see teams souring on him, but…
Posted by OB25
|
| I mean, he was pretty great, just not a huge step up from last year*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| The Big Ten is also a really bad league so his numbers get graded on a curve*
Posted by OB25
|
| Really bad is a bit of a stretch. It runs the gamut and the bottom is pretty weak
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| The Sox liked Roch when he was in HS
Posted by bjl63
|
| Seems like it’s been trending towards Emerson since May.
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| Just no Lackey. Too much risk with Catchers. Prefer Roch, but Emerson is fine*
Posted by UofIL6
|
| Just a feeling, but I think Rock UCLA is giving off vibes to the scouts saying "no" to the Sox. JMHO
Posted by osklister
|
| I don't believe that at all. Buster Posey propaganda*
Posted by bjl63
|
| To restart this with another variable: Rock & the infielder have the same agent: catcher does not.
Posted by osklister
|
| He can give off whatever vibes he wants. He has no leverage. If the Sox want him, he'll be the pick*
