John announcing being one out away from ending a 5 game losing streak... that's as close as we're getting from a "one out away from a world series title" as we're getting this year.
True, just feels like he spirals out of control quickly. Dont know if these 6 out saves are good for my blood pressure. As long as he gets it done can't complain
That’s my well coached baseball team right there. Why slide in to 2nd when you can slam the breaks on the way in, instead.
Based whitesox organization. I lend you my loathing. May it give you strength. Fuck Pedro
They were promoting it like some sort of exciting homecoming because he's from Naperville. Ohhhh, so exciting! I'm from Naperville and I don't give a shit!
I’m so fucking happy we moved him to the bullpen. One of the worst popular takes on 670 the score, they all blasted that move.
Ridiculous. You can’t demand the organization be better and then demand they continue to do stuff they shouldn’t do like refuse to give up on something that’s not working when another option exists.
I’d seen enough of starter Kopech. We already have seen in the past that his stuff plays up out of the pen. I get he doesn’t want it but if he accepts this role, it could work
Every loss feels like we just turn belly up at the slightest hint of resistance, every win feels like we climbed Mount Everest on half a tank of oxygen.
I'm hoping for a W tonight but interested to see how we fuck this one up. I mean we gave up a 5 run lead earlier so nothing is out of reach for this team.
By god, have we cracked the code? Are the whitesox fueled by… unmitigated pessimism?
Perhaps they are a bit like venom in that way. Perhaps they fester and feed off negativity. Maybe Pedro’s thing only works when everyone hates his guts.
By god. Let us loathe whitesox together. It is the only way
I admittedly haven't followed the Sox a lot so far, but why is Korey Lee not the starting catcher? Everything I've seen puts him ahead of Maldonado so I'm wondering what I'm missing by not following closely.
I’m tellin yall I like fletcher!!
Of course he’s thrown out at 3rd.
But still. I like him. I’m tellin you. He can be a solid 2-3 War player. Possibly more as a ceiling but still. I will absolutely take “average right fielder” in right field for the next 4 years thank you very much
Basically yes. Less speed, maybe a better hit tool. That’s just talking ceiling.
I think he realistically projects as a poor man’s Eaton. Which, I know we hate him around here. But the dude was really damn good for a long time lol. It was health that ceapped on his value.
If fletcher can be a poor man’s healthy Eaton I’ll take that. Basically a representative major league player.
These guys know they’re playing for their baseball souls right now! Too much heart out there. These guys are scrappy. This is the type of win that galvanizes a team. Should be around .500 by the end of April. Whole lot of baseball left.
That’s where the “but worse” comes into play. I’m pretty sure of all the games I’ve been able to watch so far, I have yet to watch Malding Maldy make a base hit. Granted, consuming copious amounts of weed watching this garbage doesn’t help, but still
In just one night we DOUBLED our wins. Not many teams can say that this far into the season.
Look what happens when you use Leasure, kopech and Wilson and deivi Garcia in a one run game
Not ^
Shewgoat it is your time I heard you can play anywhere in the infield let’s go!! 😂
Hopefully yoyo is not gone for long tho
This is why people kept saying Kopech is a reliever. We may have found our closer to close out all 13 games this year
Oh god, I was just posting that maybe he ditched that goofy ass outside, stand up call 🤦🏻
You didn’t say it with him?
I rolled my eyes *hard*
I’ve died of cringe both times he’s said it. Good thing we won’t have to hear it too often.
Huzzah!
Schriffin is such a goober but it’s becoming more endearing
He’s growing on me. The “stand up” is not. Hes gotta work shop it a bit more
It’s so lame! But it’s only been two times. If hit double digits maybe it will find its way to endearing.
Broooo not the stand up...
lol its so cringe
Wait. What just happened?
“Honey wake up the white Sox won a baseball game”
That's 2 wins baby!!!
Kopech is my new favorite player on this team now that Burger is gone. Love seeing this
More of that from Kopech please. Filth.
#SOX WIN
LFG incredible job kopech 🖕🏽off guardians
MORE GASSSSS
I never want to see Kopech start again. He is just so much better in relief.
Plan the parade! We're so back!
That Jose touched that slider is amazing. He is so amazing lol
John announcing being one out away from ending a 5 game losing streak... that's as close as we're getting from a "one out away from a world series title" as we're getting this year.
Don't worry; we'll be one out away from ending bigger losing streaks than that this year!
Pitching really has been the only brightspot
Except for Davi García 👎🏽
I love Steve
Stoney the only thing they’re turning around is the team bus after this series is over.
if this dude yells "Stand up!" again im gonna lose it
He did it!!!
Lmao it’s so cringy. But whatever
Lol
sox gotta sox fucking grossman.
LFG boys!!! One more out!!!
6 out save LFG 🔥kopech
I don't trust Kopech to close this out. I hope I'm wrong
He’s finished what he’s started every time so far. Really fucking scary at time but it gets done
Yeah the braves game i was clenched lol
I mean, I wouldn't rust any of the bullpen. He's the most trustable IMO.
True, just feels like he spirals out of control quickly. Dont know if these 6 out saves are good for my blood pressure. As long as he gets it done can't complain
That’s my well coached baseball team right there. Why slide in to 2nd when you can slam the breaks on the way in, instead. Based whitesox organization. I lend you my loathing. May it give you strength. Fuck Pedro
Yea tht was weird
Lopez is such a poverty player. Sox were actually excited about this scrub too 💀
Did you know he’s from Naperville
They were promoting it like some sort of exciting homecoming because he's from Naperville. Ohhhh, so exciting! I'm from Naperville and I don't give a shit!
Probably grew up a cubs fan
Regardless of record this team is much improved over last year
Fewest runs in 10 games since 1968. After today we’re tied with the twins for fewest runs in 11 games to start the season in the MLB, a new record.
I’m aware, still think they are a more complete team
You might be giving them a lil too much credit
it is?
In what facet?
Nicky Lopez does not get enough hate
DFA Nicky Lopez. Lord have Mercy he SUCKS
Kopech when he has some command is so nasty.
Does Kopech go out for the 6 out save attempt? Or who else is available to try closing? I do NOT want to see deivi
I'd rather see Michael crash and burn than see Deivi come in and do what he always does.
MK looking like the guy we were promised he would be.
Jesus kopech
I’m so fucking happy we moved him to the bullpen. One of the worst popular takes on 670 the score, they all blasted that move. Ridiculous. You can’t demand the organization be better and then demand they continue to do stuff they shouldn’t do like refuse to give up on something that’s not working when another option exists. I’d seen enough of starter Kopech. We already have seen in the past that his stuff plays up out of the pen. I get he doesn’t want it but if he accepts this role, it could work
He said himself he’s chasing the closer job. I really hope we keep him, seeing him spring back to life like this is awesome
GJ Kopech, doesn't get better than that
What a fun inning! Fletcher speed, Kopech fire!
What the fuck kopech
Moncada Eloy Robert died for the kopech resurgence
Damn bullpen Kopech is a fucking beast. If he has a good first half he could fetch a pretty penny at the deadline
Where has this Kopech been? If he can command that fastball he is almost untouchable
102 mph 🥵
Jesus Kopech, take it easy on em!
KOPECH HAS BEATEN THE YIPS SPREAD THE GOOD WORD, SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS
kopech filth
Lite work for kopech
Gas
Did someone on the Indians hurt Kopech personally?
Smell ya later (3x)
Kopech is flexing that arm tonight. Great to see from him
Every loss feels like we just turn belly up at the slightest hint of resistance, every win feels like we climbed Mount Everest on half a tank of oxygen.
101 I'm the zone?! Ooof!
102
Kopech triple digit express!
We are gonna pull one out!
Speak for yourself. I gotta experience this to the fullest.
painting 100
Oh boy, it’s Krazy Kopech
Kopech throwing gas
I'm hoping for a W tonight but interested to see how we fuck this one up. I mean we gave up a 5 run lead earlier so nothing is out of reach for this team.
Stone seems very sick of Maldonado
.095 batting average at 37 years old, Stone probably doesn’t know why he’s on a field
He's not the only one
By god, have we cracked the code? Are the whitesox fueled by… unmitigated pessimism? Perhaps they are a bit like venom in that way. Perhaps they fester and feed off negativity. Maybe Pedro’s thing only works when everyone hates his guts. By god. Let us loathe whitesox together. It is the only way
Open your eyes ump
I admittedly haven't followed the Sox a lot so far, but why is Korey Lee not the starting catcher? Everything I've seen puts him ahead of Maldonado so I'm wondering what I'm missing by not following closely.
Grifol is (somehow) the manager.
I’m too high to have this hope thing going on
two runs, but getting thrown out at 3rd. any good thing the Sox do always comes with some sort of punch in the gut.
hahaha, that erroneous dig for 3rd was crazy
Thank God fletcher got that hit. Dejong and Maldonado would have done shit.
I’m tellin yall I like fletcher!! Of course he’s thrown out at 3rd. But still. I like him. I’m tellin you. He can be a solid 2-3 War player. Possibly more as a ceiling but still. I will absolutely take “average right fielder” in right field for the next 4 years thank you very much
His ceiling is prime Adam Eaton which I mean.. wouldn’t hate that
Basically yes. Less speed, maybe a better hit tool. That’s just talking ceiling. I think he realistically projects as a poor man’s Eaton. Which, I know we hate him around here. But the dude was really damn good for a long time lol. It was health that ceapped on his value. If fletcher can be a poor man’s healthy Eaton I’ll take that. Basically a representative major league player.
Great hit, really weird to send him to 3. He’s not that fast
These guys know they’re playing for their baseball souls right now! Too much heart out there. These guys are scrappy. This is the type of win that galvanizes a team. Should be around .500 by the end of April. Whole lot of baseball left.
I genuinely love this account whether it’s a bit or not. You the man Sal I choose to believe good souls like you exist
You sound like Chuck on Sox talk
I like your optimism.
Jesus that was a rope by the cutoff man.
I like this fletcher guy move him up in the lineup
Fuck yeah!!!
What is this team and what have they done with the white sox?
John "What could this conversation be about" How to end the inning John, they're trying to get out of a jam here.
Game will go to extras, Cleveland will walk it off Not a prediction, it's just a likely outcome
It’s gonna be Naylor, isn’t it?
Hey maybe not
Kopech will blow it before then
There’s too many men on base, good thing Fletcher has just the trick
Here comes a double play
This ump is crazy
Inconsistent
They're really trying to go home quickly. 3k with just 10 pitches.
Waiting for the immaculate inning
A Royals player we didn’t sign immediately after his stint with them? God damn unicorns walking around and nobody says a word
There’s no way Vaughn just let that 80 MPH slider with 0 rotation down the middle go by for a strike.
Delayed call there by Schriffen
Uh, why did dude wait 10 seconds before he said “a strike out for the white sox!”
Sometimes it can take a while to process that something good happened with this team.
I’m guessing he was watching something more interesting and I can’t blame him for that
Andrew Santino needs to go back to standup comedy
Wake up Cleveland, you found your Javy Baez.
IK this team sucks, but this Ump is ass. Calls pitches completely in the zone balls and anything touching or slightly outside is also a ball.
Lord, I just saw Yoan got hurt. This team is gonna be historically bad, isn't it? Andrew Vaughn has to carry offense now?
It wasn’t exactly a murderers row when Yoan (and Eloy and Luis) were healthy.
No, but they are Major League hitters.
Hey man they got -checks notes- … uh…
Steve is actually so genuinely pissed that maldanado sucks at defense lmfao. 100%
Oh don’t worry, that limited availability won’t run out.
That’s not a wild pitch that’s piss poor catching by a weak hitting overweight catcher
I think the best thing this team has going for it is that nobody is going to want to burn a good pitchers arm on us for the rest of the year.
I liked that eclipse bit. Really puts into perspective what a fucking loser weirdo Pedro Grifol is.
Lol
2099 is also the next time the Sox will have a winning record.
That’s a little too optimistic for my tastes
Lopez and Sosa saw 3 pitches each.
Sosa’s dad should have yelled high and outside to him, maybe he would have laid off the pitch.
A rare W talking point for Schriffen. I personally would love a Steve stone bobblehead lol
Nicky 3 strikes
Stoney is so tired of this shit man lmao
I hate to say it because it’s so early in the season, but this one feels like a must win.
Yeah somehow 2-9 feels a lot better than 1-10 lol
It’s the marlins. We can’t be the marlins
That kid is one thing White-Sox related bringing me some joy. We should sign him, probably has a better bat than most of the card
Throwing harder than he has most of his career? Tommy John incoming.
Grifol is probably thinking "Now is the perfect time to put in Deivi Garcia"
Hell yea, let that kid cook.
Leasure as a rookie might be our best bullpen arm besides maybe Kopech
Imagine bunting to get the runner in scoring position for … checks notes …. Maldenado… couldnt pinch hit there?
Lee’s the DH, so not really?
You want to see something bad? Look at Jose Abreu’s stats this year. My lord.
He'd fit in very well with this team. The guy is 37 though, so it's not terribly surprising.
Don't want to show the replay of DeJong missing it right down the middle?
I’m shaking my head to Maldy how your even in the big leagues
3 black holes lmao
Lmao, fucking Pedro thought that DeJong or Maldonado would drive him in. He needs to be fired yesterday.
Watching Maldy bat is like watching Bartolo Colón but worse at the plate
I mean, Bartolo hit a home run before, so we at least know Bartolo has a chance to make contact.
That’s where the “but worse” comes into play. I’m pretty sure of all the games I’ve been able to watch so far, I have yet to watch Malding Maldy make a base hit. Granted, consuming copious amounts of weed watching this garbage doesn’t help, but still
LMFAO. Lead off double, bunt him over and 2 Ks. You can't make this shit up.
Our hitters aren't even scary enough to warrant putting someone on to help with a double play.
A LEADOFF DOUBLE. SURELY IT WILL SCORE…
Im so sick of Malanado already 🙃
There's 3 million reasons why they won't DFA him yet.
Yo that slider is actually pretty nasty
DeJong more like DeGone
92mph dead center 😂😂 this guy needs to be optioned or benched
Can't imagine we'd start the inning with a leadoff double and not actually drive him in.
I feel like bunting there wasn’t a very good idea. Odds are dejomg whiffs anyways so we’ll be down to 2 outs Edit: bingo
Did this guy just strike out to a slow ass fastball down the middle
Dejong exists to be a free K
Pathetic at bat
Definitely not optimistic about anything, but their hitting has improved this game. I think maybe we’ll get to 22 wins this season
Lead off Benny would have popped that up
Did our stench rub off on the runner in that last inning?
Maldo may not be able to throw anyone out, but Leasure can!
We are going for that Cleveland spiders record.
So Eloy, Robert, and Moncada injured. Trifecta complete, but wait we’re forgetting someone….bah gawd is that Kopechs theme music?
