Terrible night for fun bad. Also lost my 6th inning bet. Maldonado, of all people, Mr .045, put the nail in the coffin.

Shutout watch....

That's 9.

24 to go.

Scoring less than 372 runs seems out of reach. They need to really buckle down for a couple weeks to get back on pace. Get that team batting average back down to a more comfortable .190 and RISP back where it belongs at .095.

White Sox should hire this guy. Maybe he could help them keep their hammies and hip flexors intact?



White Sox should hire this guy.

I don't know if its all of MLB or just AL, but Cuda isn't the type of guy who makes things up.

Six of the 9 starters in the Sox lineup last night had a batting avg under .230
One of those who didn't was 22yr old Bryan Ramos was just called, up and is 3-10 in his career thus far.

As a team, the starting lineup last night was batting .217

You can pick any random stat that some computer is tracking, and the Sox are awful at it. Hitting, pitching, fielding, baserunning.... all bad.

Need 3.1 PA per game to qualify for batting title. Sox qualifiers right now are:

Sheets: .260
Lopez: .212
Benintendi: .184
Vaughn: .183

Go check out the Cardinals 1908 stats. The ONLY thing that saves the White Sox from the least runs scored in history is one stat. Probably because they didn't have outfield walls.

This again.

Yesterday their only hit was a solo HR. This team is a joke

White Sox fun bad stat of the week

5 of 8 defensive positions have a negative D-WAR.

But JORR told us they were putting together a team this year of elite defenders

This thread in theory could go in the Cubs section

3-0. 2 outs. Bottom 9. 2 strikes.

Korey Lee hits a HR to ruin the shutout.

He or Fedde. I’d rather it be fedde. Maybe it gooses his trade value

Since Fedde has another year left on his contract, they might as well keep him. Especially, when you consider what they got for Cease.

In a just world, it’d be Fedde and he’d get traded in between the announcement and ASG so that the Sox had nobody representing them in the game.

We will see. I think if they had kept Cease into the season, they would have had a better deal, but then you are playing chance with injuries for a team that is perpetually injured.

Obviously, they are in the catbird seat with an incredibly favorable contract going into next year.

Congrats on being better than the Reds, Pirates, and Rockies.
