I'm not going to get hung up on their record, and will instead see how they're playing come playoff time. Last year, they were playing their best ball around now, and mediocre ball around playoff time. If they can reverse that trend, things might be different this year

I would be hoping that Moncada and Grandal could get on good enough runs where I could trade them for something of value.

Supposedly Soto is available. I doubt the Sox currently have the kind of prospects that Washington will want for him, but maybe those type of prospects could be gained in trades. I would be willing to include Cease and possibly even Kopech in a such a deal.

Then you literally have no SPs.

Do you really need them in today's game? They give you five innings and then turn the game over to a bullpen that blows it.

I don't watch them enough to have an educated opinion. The sport itself is in the process of heading towards my rearview mirror. This latest 14 playoffs teams proposal with a 162 schedule might be the straw that breaks my back. With all the game killing stuff that's already going on, they do this?

They can pitch, and the Twins suck. The season isn’t over. Need Moncada and Grandal to hit. They are at .500 when about everything that could go wrong has.

I’m guessing when the hitting turns around the pitching is gonna crater .

Basing things on your fantasies isn’t a good strategy.

You've seen keuchel pitch, right?

Pitching cratered last year. "everybody is back, we're gonna roll". It didn't happen. Lynn became average, Keuchel finally ragged out and Rodon's shoulder started rotting again. All were "fantasies".

You mean they lost in the playoffs? Agreed. But the pitching didn’t “crater”.

They finished second in the American League in ERA. They were fifth in runs scored.
They were coasting to a division title.

Your optimism on this lone subject is breathtaking.

The pitching absolutely cratered in the playoffs last year. Bummer was good, Kopech was good. Every other arm was positively dreadful.

The pitching allowed 58 base runners and 31 runs over those 4 games. The starters covered 37 of the 108 outs recorded. Cratered. "Feel" apart. They fucking sucked and so do you.

Its doom and gloom as I do not believe that the 2022 White Sox are World Series team.
