He decided to give up the toe tap and went back to the leg kick.

It feels like overtinkering. The toe tap helped last year and now he has gone back to inept.

If he turns into the guy from last year's playoffs, that's great, but we don't have to have that. We just need a GG SS with a competent bottom of the order bat.

Can we have some of those Judge and Ohtani BASEballs, please?

Emphasis added for texasaggie2015, aka Astros insider.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Guys on the tv broadcast said we are exactly .500 since Yordan went down, 16-16 but averaging more runs per game since he's been gone.

Seems to me the issue is we aren't playing complimentary baseball. When we score a lot of runs, the pitching gives up a lot. When the pitching has a great game, the offense only scores 2-3 runs

39 pitches through 3 innings for Bielak - not shabby.

Figure he can go 7 or 8 at this pace...

That was my basis for the ML talent comment. The White Sox don't want to admit a rebuild, just a retooling.

That is why I wonder if Cease + Robert might be easier to do, even if it drives the price tag way up. We have numbers and prospect value that would be easier to part with if we were locking up a long term CF: Chas, Meyers, Julks, Gilbert, Melton, Leon, etc.


You can't get rid of them all though. Someone has to take over in RF when Ted leaves

Chas is on a heater. Even a bad bunt works.

Once. Just once I want an umpire who is neutral to us. I want one who won't miss calls. I'm not asking to be favored I just want one to make correct calls.

How the **** does that work?

You can review multiple things on one challenge. So why not challenge the out at 2nd if you can't lose anything.

It's pretty smart and something I expect Dusty will never do.
