I mean they are a little elevated in the zone but these are at 91 mph. We just got blown away there twice like he's pumping ched

In the not too distant future dusty and strom are going to have some decisions:

Greinke
Framber
LMJ
Urquidy
I feel like these guys when healthy would be our locked in 1-4. I would argue Javier could be as good as our #2 but for argument sake let's just say he is #4/5 for this discussion. Meaning when fully healthy 2 of javier, Garcia, odorizzi aren't in starting 5.

Garcia moving back to the pen is probably an easy call but what do you do with that #5 slot? 6 man rotation? Odorizzi to long relief? Do something crazy like opener with Garcia and bring in Javier?

enoldi and a few of the RP back off the DL as well. Could be lots of shuffling guys around

Anytime I see a rocket off tucker's bat like that I just assume it's an out.....

Maybe they were looking off-speed/breaking ball and got fooled by the fastball?

And I know McCormick's BA isn't good but I haven't seen him look as bad as Straw does repeatedly. Straw looks like he has no zone awareness. Can McCormick play CF? Straw brings sub-par D and terrible offense.

And that's why I hate the shift with runners on.

Great job pitching around that.

Cash is going to pull Hill already?

He's always pulling out early and never lets anyone finish.

Ug machete. You have one job.

Cuban Missile!

boomstick!!

I'm glad that on this forum we don't have any uncover nazi types that criticize TK for calling Wacha a "former Aggie".

That was an absolute rocket.

Hey, maybe lets not shift Kiermaier

Hearing the UT Health graduation at same time of game is kind of distracting. The radio and tv announcers need to start traveling again...

Real nice job of Correa getting rid of it quick on a difficult ball where he didn't have a good grip.

.200 BA or bust, Tucker!

2 hit game for Tucker on 2 hard hit balls. 101.6 and 99.1 off the bat

Good lord. Tucker 2-2 and Straw with a rocket to dead CF. What's next? Cats and dogs mating? The sky gonna fall?

Maldonado hitting a bomb would be my guess, the way things are going.

Why in the world was Tucker not standing on 2B waiting to see what would happen and why wasn't Straw running flat out up his pooper? I feel like Tucker should have scored and straw on 3B.

ETA Uncle Mike made it moot.

Keep booing, chumps!

If we have a guy on base maldy just needs to bunt, assuming he knows how to lay down a decent bunt

TED has reached base 5x in the last 3 games. He's batting .233 in the last 10 games. I'm sure his xBA is still like .400, but it's a nice improvement from being at .162.

Looks like another big blow to the White Sox.

Oh no no no no no. Luis Robert down.

This 408 ft double is the furthest Myles Straw has hit a ball. His previous long was a 403 ft double last August 24th at home against the Angels. https://t.co/TVsqNx70Vk

damn that looks bad.

welp

damn that was smoked.

That's a really long double, but yikes when your longest 2 career hits are doubles.

Making em pay. No respect.

Wow straw

Who suited up for Straw today?

MVP. Give it to him
