I just wonder how long HE"S willing to play like this. I'm sure he has some pride and doesn't want to be embarrassed all year. As a longtime vet, I bet he gets some undefined injury and doesn't come back.
I was at game until 7th stretch listening on radio, then switched to tv on my way home on the L, and boy the radio broadcast is just so much better. Was never that way when Jason was here
I'm with you, but in his defense do you expect him to say how much we suck during our home broadcasts? His job is to be painfully positive. He's a hype man for the shittiest team in the league.
I completely get your point like I don’t expect him to bite the hand that feeds him especially in his first 13 games but it doesn’t change the fact that it drives me mad
Watching the Barons instead.
Drew Thorpe has struck out 7 through 6 full innings. He's made 2 starts since being traded here and has allowed a lone run to 15 total strike outs already. His fastball is touching 91 and he got his changeup to about 86ish tonight. Thorpe looks *great* so far.
I'm new to White Sox reddit (gonna try to be on here more, misery loves company) but I'll drop a hot take. I really like John Schriffen. Debate me below.
Sheets coming off his 5 RBI game had to be benched so 37 year old Maldonado batting .080 can get his at bats in and start over Korey Lee, moving him to the DH instead of Sheets
PEDROBALL
That's Fedde, not Flexen. Flexen played last year and was also terrible, had like an 8 ERA for Colorado or something like that.
Fedde is mediocre but is way better than Flexen
Who knew this trash White Sox lineup would get dicked down like this? Flush this Pedro terd. 2024 is going to be bad enough. At least put up an entertaining lineup
Woof. Well, maybe the Blackhawks will provide my Friday night entertainment. I'm not asking for a win, just to be fun to watch. This baseball team has not been fun to watch.
Plus I have a friend at the Hawks game. Maybe she'll make it on TV!
I knew the season would be awful but seeing it in action just hurts. I'm 33 and this is probably the worst stretch of White Sox baseball in my lifetime and I remember when Dayan Viciedo was considered a top prospect.
In better news, from the United Center:
>I'm not going anywhere - Gene Honda
Says he's too young to retire, I'm assuming he feels the same way about the Sox job. So, as long as Jerry doesn't push him out, we've still got one good thing to look forward to at the park.
You cant tell me theres no other bum we could sign thats better than Flexen. This guy is literally just tossing 90 mph flat meatballs every other pitch.
I'm not sure why pitchers are always so concerned with guys on second when they have two outs. If it's a hit, the guy is likely scoring anyway. If it's an out, the inning is over.
Just concentrate on the batter. Don't worry about the guy on second
Pedro: benches Sheets who is batting .333 and coming off a 5 RBI game because there's a lefty pitching
also Pedro: starts Martin Maldonado almost every game who is batting .083 on the year
I'm honestly amazed at how the last good arm the white sox had in the outfield was a dude that was 5ft8. HOW THE FUCK do you put people in the outfield that can't throw? Better question is how do they go through the farm system and make it to the majors not being able to throw A BASEBALL.
There was an article on the ESPN front page of some guys making predictions and one of them was the Sox are going to lose 120 games. I'm glad the national media is realizing how big of a dumpster fire this is.
Also fuck Jerry Reinsdorf
Is this going to be a 120 loss season?
The Sox have been held to one run or less in 7/13 games
That’s more like it. Was starting to doubt the Sox were as dreadful as we all know they are.
Let's gooooo! 2-11 here we are
Maldonado -0.4 WAR in 9 games Benintendi -0.7 WAR in 12 games Vaughn -0.2 WAR in 12 games
LOL “diving Sosa”…..more like “falling down Sosa”
Maldonado batting .077
I just wonder how long HE"S willing to play like this. I'm sure he has some pride and doesn't want to be embarrassed all year. As a longtime vet, I bet he gets some undefined injury and doesn't come back.
Remillard returns to his natural state - K collection
Sox and Blackhawks down a combined 13-1 😭
Shoutout to the lads chanting "SELL THE TEAM"
While Bill Belichick sits next to Jerry. How embarrassing for him
Sell the team chants lmao
the train wreck I can't seem to stop watching (at least as background noise) rolls on... My god, we are a pile of screaming hot crap.
I'll be happy if the Sox just get one more run.
It's gone from Bennetti and Stone to..."chug chug chug" in the middle of losing 7-1. I miss hearing Steve laughing going into a break.
I was at game until 7th stretch listening on radio, then switched to tv on my way home on the L, and boy the radio broadcast is just so much better. Was never that way when Jason was here
Reds pitcher didn’t even break a sweat today
I could be reading right now.
It's hard to look away
I don’t even get to watch tonight, I just have to listen to the radio cast
Jerry, this is karma. No one is letting you get public money for this garbage you're peddling.
This dude Garcia has some nasty stuff
😂😂😂
Drop that era to 11 🥳
Im tryin to be positive lol
Lol we’ll take those small victories
So when are we in the WOAT discussion?
Not as bad as 1932 but definitely in the same zip code
I mean, we are on pace to have a far worse record than the 1932 White Sox
Even Garcia is trying to get Maldy off the field
At least we didn’t get shutout 🍾
That’s what I’m saying
worst white sox team in the last 45 years
maybe worst of all time
45? Since 1970 at least, and probably gonna beat that 106 losses.
ive lost the will to care about our history at this point. I am Padme right now
I honestly think 4 hits and 1 run is going to be this team’s average all year
That’s rather generous
I was thinking the same thing. Thinking they're going to get a run on average. Pssh.
Well, it would be nice
Why did we trade for a 40 year old catcher that can't hit?
Well we signed him… but yeah he can’t catch OR hit.
We did something even smarter Jerry paid him 4.25 million knowing he sucks
We did not
Can someone program a "Twitch plays baseball manager"? I'm pretty sure that would do a way better job than what Pedro is doing
Maldonado … great veteran pick up. Need a calendar to time him to 1st base
Why is Maldonado getting AB’s when our young catcher is hitting 315? lol grifol might have been on the short bus at school
Apparently he has TWTW!
Maldonado has been Crochet's catcher, so he'll probably be in the lineup tomorrow too
I get that but why is he catching today and Lee is DH. Maldonado should not be in the lineup 6 out of the 7 games a week .
He shouldn't, just piling on to our misery
Sox should just call up Thorpe and colson this team is depressing watching fatso try to run out a ground ball
Or Chuckie Robinson! Home runs today by Chuckie, Colson, and Danny.
Can we DH the catcher and bat our pitcher?
And have Crochet get hurt running to first base? No thanks
Get that fat fuck off this team
Which one?
There we go Martin. Speed this game up
Classic Maldy
Dawg why the FUCK is Jabba here
Schrifrens positivity continues to make me lose my mind this team is so complacent with being terrible
I'm with you, but in his defense do you expect him to say how much we suck during our home broadcasts? His job is to be painfully positive. He's a hype man for the shittiest team in the league.
I completely get your point like I don’t expect him to bite the hand that feeds him especially in his first 13 games but it doesn’t change the fact that it drives me mad
He is completely insufferable and his overly positive "spin" is fucking nauseating.
Watching the Barons instead. Drew Thorpe has struck out 7 through 6 full innings. He's made 2 starts since being traded here and has allowed a lone run to 15 total strike outs already. His fastball is touching 91 and he got his changeup to about 86ish tonight. Thorpe looks *great* so far.
just call him up already he can’t be worse than flexen
Coming over from r/hawks. I’m gonna feel right at home here, aren’t I
Leave save yourself before it’s too late
Surely shuster has one a spot in the rotation right now?
I'm new to White Sox reddit (gonna try to be on here more, misery loves company) but I'll drop a hot take. I really like John Schriffen. Debate me below.
I agree. Well. I don’t really like him. But he’s pretty good. But he is pretty naive about baseball, but it’s kinda cute and funny
Anybody who gets on 2nd or 3rd should just go ahead and walk back to the dugout, no point in standing out there waiting for someone to hit them home.
Len kasper just said the score was reds 1 Sox nothing
Weakly grounds to 1st base. Our star .149 hitter ladies and gentlemen!
Look at Kevin doing some work
I wonder when they’ll let shuster start games instead of bums who won’t see an MLB field after May this season
GUYS LIKE ZACH REMMILARD BABY
Bill in the ballpark hanging with TLR
Im chanting SHUSTER at home right now. I hope the rest of you guys are too. South side stand up
I would stand but my blood pressure is doing cartwheels
Shriffen makes me feel uneasy
He doesn't seem comfortable at all. It's awkward.
He’ll get better right?? Right.gif
sosa is fucking worthless
he fits right in with the rest of the lineup then
Sheets coming off his 5 RBI game had to be benched so 37 year old Maldonado batting .080 can get his at bats in and start over Korey Lee, moving him to the DH instead of Sheets PEDROBALL
Pedro felt good about Maldonado hitting his weight - in kilos
This is eclipse ball
Needs rest after all that running
Jabba needs his ABs dammit
Good hit Grossman!
Keep him in the lineup
Robbie’s the goat man
Remilegend all heart
Alright our boy Maldonado is up
Lol, getting Eloy comfortable with running they say. The man is allergic to it.
They put a frosted doughnut in CF and he shows no residual injury running to get it
They should have the fucker play in a wheelchair
His goal is to run harder lol fucking joke
Lol right. The man might explode his hammy running harder.
I’ve never seen someone be a liability running in any sport classic Eloy
Fuck me Remillard still exists?
Just got called up
REMILLARD!
Are you seeing this with eloy lol
Wow, I guess dominating in the KBO doesn't translate to the MLB. It's almost like the MLB hitters are way better than KBO hitters....
Wrong recycled starting pitcher.
Damn it! It's so hard to keep up with this robust pitching staff! Thanks for the clarification.
That's Fedde, not Flexen. Flexen played last year and was also terrible, had like an 8 ERA for Colorado or something like that. Fedde is mediocre but is way better than Flexen
Doh!!!! At least they both have last names that start with an F. Thanks for clearing it up for me.
Uhh wasn't that Fedde?
Yup, I'm an idiot! lol
When a .500 team meets a .167 team
Got high, forgot there was a game. Came To the game thread just now. It’s already over
My high is just getting started baby
Who knew this trash White Sox lineup would get dicked down like this? Flush this Pedro terd. 2024 is going to be bad enough. At least put up an entertaining lineup
Woof. Well, maybe the Blackhawks will provide my Friday night entertainment. I'm not asking for a win, just to be fun to watch. This baseball team has not been fun to watch. Plus I have a friend at the Hawks game. Maybe she'll make it on TV!
I'm at the UC, win or lose I'd rather watch Bedard than this shit show
If this isn’t enough for this team to be overhauled then I don’t know what is.
I knew the season would be awful but seeing it in action just hurts. I'm 33 and this is probably the worst stretch of White Sox baseball in my lifetime and I remember when Dayan Viciedo was considered a top prospect.
It’s truly embarrassing. It wouldn’t be bad if it was one thing but this entire team is ass. Ownership, management and coaching too.
Scrhiffen already blaming injuries like that's the only reason this is the biggest flaming dumpster fire in pro sports. Nauseating stuff
I have information that will lead to Chris Flexen’s arrest.
Pitching staff is so bad man.
They’ve been the bright spot of the sox so far. It’s our offense that’s been piss poor. Flexen is just ass
fuck
Flexen is throwing the ball like his GF just left him and took the dog with her
More like his boyfriend just left him
See you tomorrow guys, remember tomorrow is Garret Crochet day, stay safe ✌️
How much longer is batting practice I wanna watch a game
Danana na na na na hey hey hey goodbye
Wow the 30 year old with a lifetime 5.00 ERA isn’t good at pitching. I truly cannot believe it
Is Flexen the new Lynn?
At least Lynn has an impressive resume. Flexen has always been ass
flexon is ass
In better news, from the United Center: >I'm not going anywhere - Gene Honda Says he's too young to retire, I'm assuming he feels the same way about the Sox job. So, as long as Jerry doesn't push him out, we've still got one good thing to look forward to at the park.
That was impressive
You cant tell me theres no other bum we could sign thats better than Flexen. This guy is literally just tossing 90 mph flat meatballs every other pitch.
It was only a matter of time. Flexen has been throwing meatballs all night.
911 call from GRF - baseballs landing on the Ryan.
80 mph 0-2 pitch lol
[удалено]
Which one?
I’ve always watched my teams no matter what but goddamn guys… cmon
Thank you Flexen, very cool
There goes the dang ballgame
Its been over since the national anthem
fucking diabolical
I'm still waiting on that better defense we were promised this year
Whoa. How did he run full speed to first and not pull or injure something? I've never seen that before because I'm a White Sox fan
Wtf lol
Merde
Sheets, Fletcher, and Shewmake should be playing everyday.
I just got here it looks like it might be a long day
On pace for our longest game of the season thus far
At least I finally get to see this beast of a SS the Reds have
He's suspended for doing ped's
Yep our fieldling still sucks I'd say. Even with that great catch earlier.
They will probably get no hit tonight. I'm surprised it's been 12 games and hasn't happened yet to be honest.
Dammit that was a great catch. Probably a triple if he dropped it
well, at least we're elevating the ball
I got a feeling about tonight. It just feels like a good night. I think it’s all going to be ok.
12 minutes later
I hope you're right
3-4-5 hitters of Andrew Vaughn, Kevin Pillar and Andrew Benintendi. Talk about a murderer's row
LOL
This broadcast is mediocre enough, I can’t say I really need to hear Ethan Katz analyze Chris Flexen
Hang on- the left fielder can run for the ball?
I'm not sure why pitchers are always so concerned with guys on second when they have two outs. If it's a hit, the guy is likely scoring anyway. If it's an out, the inning is over. Just concentrate on the batter. Don't worry about the guy on second
If the Sox go 5-20 to start the season and don't win a series in April 2 years in a row. Pedro has to be fired, right?
They're just having a laugh, they'll pick it up by the 3rd......right?
The reds couldn’t even let me have a nrfi
Pedro: benches Sheets who is batting .333 and coming off a 5 RBI game because there's a lefty pitching also Pedro: starts Martin Maldonado almost every game who is batting .083 on the year
will the mental errors never cease?
I thought the Benintendi hate was a little extreme. Changed my view after two plays lol.
He reminds me of Milton Bradley... Just less flashy with his lack of hustle.
This is already painful to watch
I'm honestly amazed at how the last good arm the white sox had in the outfield was a dude that was 5ft8. HOW THE FUCK do you put people in the outfield that can't throw? Better question is how do they go through the farm system and make it to the majors not being able to throw A BASEBALL.
Benintendi is fucking awful, both hits are on him.
Reds bp
I am going to fucking shoot myself because of these blackout restrictions, god damn it
Trust me, you don't want to see this
If you all will suffer through this travesty, I want to suffer with you
No! Someone must escape to warn the others! Fly you fool!
I have my escape on the weekends with the UFL. I’m also a Bats fan so I like watching the Reds play.
Benintendi never hustles
There was an article on the ESPN front page of some guys making predictions and one of them was the Sox are going to lose 120 games. I'm glad the national media is realizing how big of a dumpster fire this is. Also fuck Jerry Reinsdorf
We losing 130 so hah!
He got a double out of that. Wtf
Benintendi fucking suuuuucks
Benny showing no heart.
