Ownership doesn't care about this season. If they did, Ricky would've been gone.

So they'll punt on this season and hire a manager next year.

Grandal tired from all that framing and passed balls last night? He should at least be DH-ing today. Edwin, take a seat, old man. Think about jumping over 1st base for a couple days.

Nor should they. This is a garbage season whether they go 1-59 or 59-1 .

This is one game, people. But the Twins are a very good hitting team. This should be a fun short season. They are still a very young team and it will take them a bit to figure things out.

Lol your team is fucked for the foreseeable future but thanks for stopping by.

Irrelevant to the fact that the White Sox indeed do have the worst defensive team in baseball. They ain't winning shit till that's fixed.

He should have been replaced before this season got underway. It's not a "fire him" kind of thing. Its a "he gets you to being a contender but not over the top" kind of thing.
The Cubs were right to replace him when they did.

The umpire called a fair game but he was a hitter's umpire and didn't call pitches on the edges strikes particularly the low strikes on breaking pitches. That forced the Sox pitchers to give in and you just can't do it with hitters like the Twins.

Its not an excuse just an observation. Each umpire has their own version of a strike zone and this guy called a tight strike zone which is okay as long as it is the same zone for both teams. That's why I said that he called a fair game.

Or maybe the umpire thought Grandal was framing him. Especially early. The strike zone opened up later. Maybe he felt bad since Grandal couldn't keep the ball from going to the backstop.

Agreed. That ball was 3-4" outside

Nearly every time Robert hits the ball it sounds like a Howitzer going off

The late Buck O'Neil used to talk about the three bats that just sounded so unique: Babe Ruth, Josh Gibson, and Bo Jackson. Given that Buck scouted Billy Williams and Ernie Banks, that's something about Bo.

If Robert can consistently make hard contact, he is going to have a great career.

I would have left Keuchel go at least one more batter or try to get out of this headache. Hopefully it works out.
