Can a 76 year old racist drunk asshole lead the Sox to the promised land?
Abreu has the COVID
-
What did he say that was racist? Keep hearing this.
-
He left out Hitler
-
Eloy out 5-6 months with a torn pectoral.
That's just fuckin' great
-
Be back for the stretch run. LFG

Time to bump this to try and stop thinking about Illini incompetence. (Redundant, I know.)

Judge rules against umpire Angel Hernández in race discrimination lawsuit against MLB
Hired as a big league umpire in 1993, Hernández alleged he was discriminated against because he had not been assigned to the World Series since 2005 and had been passed over for crew chief.
Angel Hernandez still sucks.

LaRussa sucks. Fire LaRussa. That was brutal. I don't like Aaron Bummer.

Hey at least TLR is still alive and off the sauce...for now.
Defense pissed this game away. Madrigal is turning into quite the choker with the glove.

I just assumed he was getting drinks at the bar instead of challenging the call on the Madrigal steal and taking Bummer out of the game after 3 guys.
-
Loved Larussa's handling of the pitchers tonight. Yermin goes 5/5!
Now if they can just fix the defense.
-
Tony LaRussa has cost them 2 games putting in Bummer and Marshall in the 8th with slim leads. Those guys are nowhere to be found in clutch situations. Why is Leury Garcia on this team? LaRussa reminding us why The Hawk fired him in the 1st place.

Looking like total buffoons on defense isn't helping their cause either.

Poor Cobb county. Votes for Biden and loses the All Star game.
Where does it go now ?
Looks like Pennsylvania requires an id for a mail in ballot.
Looks like Wisco requires id from most voters.
Looks like Arizona requires an id.
Looks like Michigan requires an id or signed affidavit that you left your drivers license at home when you drove to the polls, or something like that. Or you can shell out $10 for a state id.
Looks like Nevada requires id for first time voters, so the AAA team might not be able to host the MLB All Star game.
What a pickle. The coach waved me on but I ran out of options in the run down.
Is this the right thread to throw this out ? Or is this an error ?
-
Looks like it will be in Chicago where you can vote early and often.

There's no home run giving it to Chicago. Both righties and lefties go to left field already.

Imagine how many stars you would have given him if he included ALL of the provisions in the GA law specifically designed to depress turnout in urban and minority areas because they had the temerity to vote out that beeyotch Illinois alumna that sucked some Original HQ poster's cock!

In what can only be considered a scathing indictment, Tony LaRussa has not proven to be an upgrade over Ricky Renteria so far.

The Gov and Mayor had a tough home opener, eh ?

Nobody else in the dugout knew the rules either. Guess they were all too busy passing the flask around.

Tony La Russa is all about the unwritten rules but doesn’t understand the written ones.
Exactly why I didn’t like the hire. Who gives a crap about some outdated unwritten rules?

I’m going to my first Sox game in like 20 some years Monday night

Been a while for me, too. Shingo Takatsu pitched the ninth

We had the Fan Deck in center field, some of the coworkers from STL were decked out in their Cards gear so it was pretty awesome kicking their asses.

Was Imbecile Judy there wearing Illini 19 on his jersey?

Sox bullpen sucks just as much as that fucking Steve Goodman song. Fuck him. Glad he's dead. Too bad Aaron Bummer isn't dead.

Hey Donaldson, go fuck yourself. I hope you enjoy being 14.5 games back of the Sox, you fucking clown.

Crazy ass game. The Sox 3rd string catcher goes off for 3 homers. Too bad they still lost.
Kimbrel was the only Sox pitcher to show up tonight. The rest of them can fuck off.

Don't know what this has to do with the White Sox, but it is too bad the Padres guy is doing this.

Glad the Sox won and that home plate ump got hit. He sucked ass.

Rodón on the 10 day IL, won’t start the FOD game. Sad part is this obviously needed to be done two weeks ago, and they kept him in the rotation (albeit on extra rest). Robbed him of a special moment in his career he’ll never be able to recapture.

Is he the one who makes final decisions? It’s not an end of the world thing, but tomorrow is a special moment for the game and definitely for the Sox. Too bad Rodón doesn’t get to be front and center. He’d earned it after all he’s done and been through.

How often are the White Sox the center of the MLB universe? Just thought after all he’s been through it would be a great moment for Carlos.

Not White Sox related, but Jake Arrieta gets the release he so richly deserved.

Of course the first Field of Dreams game couldn't have ended any other way.

Keuchel throwing batting practice to the Rays today. Sign Arrieta.

He's sore. Not the sore like I am at LaRussa and Kimbrel
-
This offense has been sucking balls lately.
-
18 hits. 5 runs. Not ideal. It's a W though.
It took the stubborn geezer long enough to get Cesar Hernandez the hell out of the leadoff spot. What do ya know? Good things actually happened.
-
The Sox pen didn't blow it. They almost did, but they didn't!
-
This game is going to last all night at this rate.
-
Dallas Keuchel is a bum. Hope the Sox can find a way to sucker some team into trading for him in the offseason.
-
Grandal has 2 homers, 8 RBIs tonight. Quite a way to return from the IL.
-
Bullpen is still bad.
-

He more than made up for that egregious 3-0 take in the 1st inning with the bases loaded.
-
Reynaldo Lopez throwing 5 perfect innings in a game that ended in a 17-13 final score is nothing short of remarkable.
-
I didn't see that coming with Lance Lynn of all people on the mound. Probably just cost himself the Cy Young.

Yeah, really bad night for Lance.

Guess the Sox were partying too hard on Friday night after winning the Crosstown Cup.

Sox were hammerin the cubbies so bad I went and played the back nine before men’s league. These are the good times !

The Sox dropped the season series to the lowly Royals. How shameful.

Not worrying about anything yet, but if they are playing this way 3 weeks from now, get out your worry helmets.

The Sox offense is bipolar as fuck. The division should have been clinched already with how trash the rest of the Central is.

Why is Anderson still out? Should we call the FBI to find Adam Engel?

TA is on the Kawhi Leonard load management plan. Engel is still on a rehab assignment I believe.

Can we ship Kimbrel back to the Northside where he belongs?

Engel is supposed to be called up today, I think.
Is Kimbrel still sucking? I have watched almost no White Sox since NFL started. Before that. I was watching 85% of games lol.

Sox are playing .500 ball since the break.

Sox clinch the Central for the first time since 2008. Consecutive playoff appearances for the first time in team history.
It’s about fucking time.

Miles, you snag any tickets today? Got ALCS Game 4.

From the Tribune bird cage liner:
Games 1 and 2 of the Sox-Astros ALDS are at 3:07 p.m. Thursday and 1:07 p.m. Friday at Minute Maid Park. Game 3 of the best-of-five series is at 7:07 p.m. Sunday at Guaranteed Rate Field, and Game 4, if necessary, would be next Monday at Guaranteed Rate. If the series goes five games, it would wrap up next Wednesday in Houston.
Times for Games 4 and 5, if necessary, are to be determined.
Games 1 and 3 will be televised on FS1, while Game 2 will air on MLB Network.

TLR zero upgrade over Rick Renteria this series.

If the bases are larger, will robot umpires stop calling the phantom dragging the foot across 2nd base on the double play ? Lol.
Maybe MLB should just show baseball video games on a big screen. Kinda like going to the movies. No more rain delays. No more 4 hour 2-1 ball games.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2021-10-11/mlb-rule-changes-atlantic-league-tests-tweaks-meant-to-save-baseball?
"These tweaks have included letting batters try to steal first base, making the bases bigger and easier to reach, strictly limiting visits to the mound by coaches, and using an Automated Ball-Strike system—robot umpires—to call pitches at the plate. "

Cesar Hernandez option declined.
Maybe they can get Semien or Taylor now but I doubt it.

He looked like such a solid acquisition at the time. Relatively cheap, not sure I don’t keep him unless they plan on spending big.

Sox sign Kendall Graveman. Just what the Sox need. Another big money reliever.
How about a 2B or RF, Hahn? Think you can get one of those?

Ummm, they’re going to trade Kimbrel.

Ship Kimbrel’s ass back to the Northside where he belongs.
