Fear & loathing White Sox/MLB thoughts, Soccer, NBA, Illini athletics, and a little too much tequila.
Seldom serious. I also collect a little cardboard.

But honestly I had fun doing fantasy baseball for the first time in a number of years. Thanks to most of you for being active and competitive 🍾🍻

I don't want to sound a White Sox alarm, but with the Grand Slam and other plays yesterday, Andrew Benintendi now has 0.1 WAR on the season. First time I believe he has ever climbed into positive territory in a Sox uniform.

Flipped on the White Sox game.
First thought - why is Vinny Capra a thing?

Even Javy Baez, who swings at literally everything, has never swung at over 40% of fastballs out of the zone in his entire career.

Andrew Vaughn's chase rate on fastballs is going the opposite direction of what you'd expect for a hitter who should be entering his prime. Not a fair comparison but Vaughn vs. Aaron Judge. You can't swing at 40%+ of fastballs out of the zone and expect success. #WhiteSox #MLB

Bad timing or bad planning? The Reinsdorf family put themselves in this position. They've shown zero urgency to improve the product despite knowing about the demise of their old network for awhile.

I truly love how the White Sox called up Edgar Quero 24 hours ago, but are already giving him off days in favor of Matt Thaiss, Josh Palacios, and Nick Maton ABs.
Also another off day for Luis Robert Jr. Getz masterclass on holding onto him all winter to build his trade value during the season.

My idea has been an obvious fit that would actually look decent on the jersey. Which is why it will never happen.

I would be amiss to not give a shoutout to how ridiculously good the White Sox pitching has been through 4 games. Rare I send a positive Sox thought, but considering the obscurity of the roster, pretty cool.

There is something cosmically hilarious about the White Sox first CHSN broadcast ever starting out with them losing 9-0 after 1 inning.

Completely believable signing given the recent history of the Chicago White Sox. Not only was he the most obvious cheater of the "sticky stuff" era, he's also a moron.
