this is why it’s going to be hard for this team to compete and make a legit run back to respectability .You have your erstwhile ace going against this putrid lineup
Image

missing their two best hitters with a chance to sweep and they can’t get it done. You cant lose these games. now you have to hope that the next four starters have another good run through the rotation without getting lit up before your “best” pitcher goes again which probably isn’t going to happen. A couple more lackluster starts and people are gonna have to start pointing some fingers at Cease as well.

Anderson cost them 2 runs. Another killer was leaving the bases stoked, no outs, with our 7, 8, and 9 hitters up. Pop up from Alberto after swinging and fouling off about 7 balls out of the strike zone right after Benintendi walked on 4 pitches, and then 2 Ks. There's just too many guys who aren't baseball players. They play baseball on a field and stuff, but they aren't baseball players.

Theyvare also not good enough to be giving series away because they won the first two by trotting out dogshit lineups. Nobody should be tired, nobody should be getting days off that are the nine best batsin that lineup. Run those fucking guys out there until they drop.

Not that Cease doesn't have his faults, he continues to waste pitches with 58 footers and 6 foot high fastballs. Those are freebies for a hitter. Shouldn't have more than one of those an inning. He has multiple non competitive pitches every inning.

You can put some of this on the manager too. You have a chance to sweep the defending division champs on your home field. Play Moncada. Ride the hot hand with Sheets as the RF. There was no reason to have Alberto and Marisnick playing today. None.

He pulled the same shit two weeks ago when they had a chance to sweep the Twins as well.

I can't even name who hit 9th. I'd have to look it up. But I know he blows.

Also, Bummer hesitated on covering first on a groundball to Vaughn and it also cost an out. Cleveland got 3 extra outs that weren't errors today just because of completely unfocused bullshit.
Apparently this manager has no consequences for players just like the last one. Just keeps happening, over and over and over and over and over and over. Play the game like you mean it or don't play at all. Honestly, I'd tell Hanser, Tim, and Bummer, don't come in tomorrow.

Agree with the first part of this, but TLR was not alone in this. The Sox organization as a whole allows for this sort of not caring and laziness. They have been shoddy defensively and on the bases for years. To tell you the truth, Renteria was the only one who seemed to care at all as he benched players. Now you can argue about that being helpful or not, but at least he tried something.

Managers can matter, but the White Sox manager won't matter because as long as Kenny and Jerry are running things, nothing will change. The White Sox organization as whole sets the tone of allowing guys to genuinely not care or not hustle. Look no further than this year. On paper, Cleveland doesn't have a better roster than the Sox. But there is no question they played the game differently and that is why they won the division and the Sox have two meaningless games left.

Can't remember or find a separate thread on this ...Went to the Sox game the other night. Got there 515. The tailgating was the same as it always was. Plenty of people with tables, even longer tables. No one had a tent (no need).

Burger is at a pace right now to be an all-star caliber player for the long run. He really is a good talent at bat and has excellent plate coverage and power to all fields. The double with the bags loaded was a huge hit and on a tough pitch with two strikes. Not many average hitters even touch that pitch let alone hit it to the wall in right center field.

I think he always has been unhittable but mostly because he find the plate. Problem is that decent hitters lay off balls outside the strike zone.

I went to my first game of the year Saturday. They won and I got a nice looking, free jacket. I didn't try it on but their XL give aways never seem to be european cut XL. I had a great time. They won. Sun was blazing so I got a little bit too much sun. Go, Go White Sox!
