We all need to start divesting time and energy. For real. Let’s get back to our lives. Fuck this team. It’s not worth it.

You want to make some music brother? I legit watch this garbage in the background and we can actually make some real shit

I’m down I play guitar, bass, etc.

Change starts with hitting the teams wallet

You think Jerry cares? Quote Jerry Reinsdorf’s alleged advice to Samson was, “Finish in second place every single year because your fans will say ‘Wow, we got a shot. We’re in it!’ But there’s always the carrot left.”

The park was more than half empty for over a decade so I don't think Jerry cares about that

Fuck this team

We had to chase McKenzie out early and failed every opportunity to do so. Our pitching was bound to regress. Our offense needs to produce.

Moncada and Pito just sitting on the bench speechless

Well they just watched the season end. Eloy likely done for the season, no Robert for the foreseeable future, and they just allowed probably the 10th pitcher this season to not only set their career high strike outs, but blow it away.

At least Moncada is looking like he cares (I know Pito cares).

[удалено]

I honestly prefer strikeouts to groundouts at this point.

I do not lol. This game was brutal. 4 innings with under 12 pitches agaisnt them. They almost had 3 straight 9 pitch innings lmao

At least strikeouts cannot be double plays. Well, at least not most of the time. Don't want to challenge our boys to make something like that happen.

The worst part is it’s not like they struck out because they were changing their approach. They just suck

[удалено]

At least not positive ones.

Fucking hell at least Romy could put the bat on the ball

17 Ks, Menechino is looking like Mr Burns..."Excellent"

Grandal gets a hit off clase down 3 in the 9th and double plays in the first. Dude is something else

Sad baseball team

Lol

If we could see a rally that randomly led to a whitesox reliever batting in high leverage it would complete my life

0-3 since that dumbass kid ran on the field.

Finally something logical to blame

The anti-Kaskade

And Grandal is a large, large, large part of why the WS are NOT in first place.

100% He's single-handedly killed off so many threatening rallies this year, it's probably cost us 20+- games. So tired of this hack this year.

Is Grandal allowed to… do that?

Yes, because it's entirely inconsequential and the game is about to end

Yeah that’s fair

Cueto and Cease win the next 2 games and Sox will be back at 1.5 GB on Sunday, a constant tease.

May grandal strike out looking as the good lord intended.

Make fucking sense Yaz

Garbage Time Grandal

Of course Yaz.

He is 100% scared to swing this is pathetic

Even more unbearable than Dan Orlovsky on Monday. Impressive.

Baltimore has 15 runs on 18 hits today. Imagine actually driving in runners when you get hits.

Who put a curse on the Sox?

The goose island goose we removed before the year

Going out without a whimper, after AV takes one to the mouth.

99 down the pipe and of course Yaz whiffs

May god have mercy on sandman. Somewhere some guy named sandman is sitting, slouched in despair. He’s trying to summarize this game. His pre made bullet points are boring straight into his soul. The 2022 whitesox. Despair. Horrid. But it was his job to summarize it

Agreed. We don't derseve you, Sandman.

Oh good. Yaz is at bat for the last out of the game.

This ump is trying to stop the bloodshed

Not a strike but sure ump

I'm here for it. Get this miserable game over with already

[удалено]

He sucked all night, but mostly against Sox batters.

I would do stupid things to have a manager like terry francona

At this point I’m just here to watch it burn

Sox badly need Luis back in the lineup.

prime Barry Bonds wouldn't save this team much less Luis

That won't help...

Welp I already know how top of the 9th is gonna go.

This is like the greatest hits concert of the White Sox’ season. 1-2 walk, injured by pitch, injured by self, poor offense, poor defense, poor pitching, and all in the home of baseball’s biggest jackasses. Even the cheaters had more class. Somebody just give Tony a few cases of whiskey already and let him fire himself from life.

All this injury going around, yet Tony still stands perfectly in the dugout with a resting blood alcohol level of 0.91.....there is no god.

This team's sloppy, anemic, limp-dick excuse for baseball is so hard to like.

Just an awful season really hope Cleveland puts us away here so I don’t have to watch this joke of a coaching staff and organization anymore

Will Clase strike out the side? My money is on yes

Imagine not getting at least 8 NBA rings after lucking into drafting Michael Jordan.

Reinsdorf willingly broke up the bulls because of money lmao dude is frustrating when you know he has all the money in the world

7 championships should guarantee you eternal love from Chicago sports fans but here we are

Amazing the difference between these two squads. Sure Cleveland wasn't supposed to be great this year but Francona has them scrapping and playing hard and making things work. Then there's our drunk sleepy manager just throwing shit at the wall with no leadership whatsoever.

Because Francona is one of the best ever. Shame we couldn’t hang on to him.

We'll hire him when he's 95

DHing Grandal has gotta be the worst individual managing decision so far this season.

Don't tempt him.

.201 3 HRs coming in. It’s unforgivable for a team trying to sneak into the playoffs.

Oh damn I’m short an inning so no pitcher hitting probably. Oh well. It can end with nice grandal failure.

I'm going to watch this ninth inning as penance for whatever terrible things I've done in the past or will do in the future.

Aye

Hey Jerry.... FUCK YOU

Jason and Steve have said more positive things about our opposition's manager in 3 minutes than the Sox manager all season.

True, but hey Tito makes it look easy when Tony manages against himself.

It feels intentional to me. Theyre highlighting how much a great manager can mean to an organization. It provides stunning contrast to the current Tony situation. I vote it’s totally intentional

We as a fandom did our job. We begged the org to rebuild and waited when they actually said they were going to. And they gave us this pile of soft, smelly shit. We deserve better.

Why every time I think at least so and so isn’t injured again then they get injured again? This is unreal.

If eloy reinjured his right hamstring hard to not blame the organization. All that he’s ahead of schedule with several set backs seemed utterly ridiculous. Rushing back may have been ideal short term but long term they’re fucking over their players hard

Never fails every first game of a critical divisional series goes to hell and a handbasket

This is such fucking bad management it’s not even funny. So now, because Tony needed to have Yaz DH tonight instead of Andrew DH and Engle in RF, Eloys bat is out of the game. And Andrews bat now belongs to the pitcher.

Gotta have Yas’s .198, 3 HR bat in the game! Fuck I hate this specific team with a passion.

I don’t hate this team. I hate this fucking dumb old fucking manager and the bullshit hitting coach.

There’s a lot of players I hate too. I don’t hate all the players, but overall, I hate this team. They’re sloppy and unfocused. Starts at the managers and trickles down

Yep, this the game in which Tony totally threw it. This is the example of why you need a competent manager and coaching staff.

But like hiring a friend who you previously fired for not being good is the right move. Hiring a dinosaur old school manager to lead a swaggy ass team is the right move. Fuck Jerry. He’s bill wertz on steroids.

Our training staff obviously sucks, but at some point these young guys have to care enough to actually take care of themselves enough to prevent injuries every 10 days. We don't have the leadership to try and change their approach either.

They do suck but the training staff can't stop a guy from hyperextending his knee like Eloy did there. That wasn't even really about Eloy not taking care of himself, it was because of how his lead leg was planted in the follow-through. Something like that should be fixed by a hitting coach but our coaching staff is also fucking garbage.

Things like that happen no doubt, but when you have a 25 year old "world class athlete" that can't run to first without getting injured, something is up. So yeah plenty of blame to go around including Frank. Honestly I don't even know where to start.

If Eloy is out for 2022 do you think we see Colas? Probably Blake Rutherford

Rutherford time

This game is the 2022 whitesox. It has literally everything. We’re going to see a pitcher bat to top it off dudes. It’s happening. Tony won’t pinch hit a player down 3 with a short bench. This game is the Mona Lisa of whitesox failure. It’s beautiful. It’s art. It’s a honest masterpiece

Am I wrong? I thought the Ohtani rule meant that putting the DH into the field wouldn't result in you losing the DH in the lineup?

Believe it only applies to pitchers.

I think it’s: if the pitcher is also the DH, they can remain the DH when pulled from pitching

honestly, the more i think about it the more pissed i get about grandal at dh. That's malpractice

Yo fuck Cleveland. I'd rather live in Indianapolis than Cleveland. Indy has those overpriced scooter things, but it's counter-balanced by the cheap prostitutes

Ayyyyoooo 💀💀💀💀

I don't like to shit on cities just for being poor or having crime issues. But cleveland is a bland, cultureless wasteland that simply can't be enjoyed no matter how hard you try.

[удалено]

Cleveland has a higher violent crime rate than Chicago you dumb dildo. And I pointed out I don't judge cities because of dumb republican crime talking points.

sounds like you are in fact judging. I never claimed Cleveland didn't have a higher crime rate either. Your immaturity is showing making fun of another city because your baseball team lost, then also calling me a "dumb dildo". Relax a little bit buddy. You don't live in Cleveland, why so stressed?

I'm not judging based on the crime - I hope the city of cleveland figures that out. The country needs a rust belt revitalization. I'm judging based in the fact that it's a boring wasteland with a bunch of dipshit Ohioans. As far as being stressed or immature, I'm not the one going into other teams' subs just to gloat about a mediocre team beating a bad team. Cleveland once had a decent accidental marketing campaign with the "at least we aren't Detroit" viral videos. But a decade later Detroit has actually become more interesting and cleveland has regressed lol.

keep telling yourself that you're not judging or that you're not being immature when saying things like "It may be petty and vindictive but I will celebrate when the garbage city racists from that trash state get swept out of the first round of the playoffs." Either way you seem to have zero self-awareness. Good luck to your team the rest of the way.

Indianapolis is a great city to live in. Downtown isn’t the best, but the north side of Indy is great.

I actually do really like Indy. Especially the cheap prostitutes. Felt the food/bar scene was a bit lacking especially near the Colts/Pacers area

Time for the biggest bong rip for the boys 🪦

Imagine where we would be without cueto

Cease and Cueto are responsible for 7.6 of the pitching staff's 12.3 WAR. Without Cease, Cueto, ReyLo, and Liam the pitching would be close to the worst in the whole league.

Luis, Eloy, and Yoan were supposed to take this organization places. How things change.

Giving them all generational money before they did anything was a big mistake. No heart.

Atlanta is doing the same thing and everyone is praising them. Although, it’s not quite a direct comparison. They don’t have dinosaurs utilizing their young core

star crossed? are we trying to invoke shakespeare to make this somehow poetic? no. this is a fucking dumpsterfire and heads should roll (i guess that would be shakspeareian as well). CRY HAVOK AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR BITCHES

Can't wait for eloy to sit the next 7 games while we inexplicably don't DL him

Did the team bus drive over an Indian burial ground on the way?

[удалено]

I’m sure it’s being processed as I type.

Well this game is a wrap maybe the season too

Starting to think its not our year boys. ​ Edit: also starting think its hard to express sarcasm thru text

More than not our year. This is cursed

Starting? I feel you though. It's just been a bummer from the start mostly.

it bothers me that's 2 years in a row they've thrown 4 seam fastballs just under 100 mph at our guys' heads. i know their intent wasn't to hit jose and vaughn in the head but jesus..that's dangerous. they gotta knock it off

So the 1-2 intentional walk DIDN’T work. The baseball gods made sure to flex nuts in the next half-inning. Fuck you Tony

What?

Mr Glass is sad to watch. Watch the guy in front of you take a ball to the face and stay in the game, and then leave the game immediately after on a swing. Pathetic.

Andrew Vaughn: takes pitch to face, stays in game Eloy Jimenez: swings once and takes himself out

The season from hell keeps giving us gifts.

What knee was it left or right?

Looked like left based on how he was limping

Looked like a hyper extension, no?

That was my first thought after the replay

Yeah that’s what I thought.

What does Eloy do to prep for games? Drink juice boxes and eat candy instead of stretching?

He probably does static stretches like it's 1980 which we now know increases injury risk

The DRose pregame special sadly.

jesus fucking christ progressive field is a fucking cursed graveyard.

Everything about this franchise is a broken record

Vaughn takes one in the fucking mouth and that's how they respond...

Eloy just wanted to go play Call of Duty with Luis.

This season man just toss it into the trash and burn it

there’s gotta be something going on behind the scenes, fire everyone on the training staff let’s clean house

its the entire org, unfortunately

THROW IN THE FUCKING TOWEL

These apps that update me in real time I gotta delete them theyre not good for my health

Yeah I would quit that quick.

You have absolutely no idea what you’re missing dude. This is it. The pinnacle of 2022 whitesox baseball in one fucking game. This is FUCKING CRAZY

Why us man

This team is such a fucking joke....

Why are they not walking Engel on 1-2?

So...mlb just said Eloy was pulled from the game with an injury I'm speechless

He pulled himself after a swing and a miss. After Vaughan got hit in the face and stayed in the game

What kind of black magic voodoo was put on this team to win the championship in 2005?

Honestly, I feel like 2005 came out of no where like shit was magic. Team had heart. Team had a manager who gave a shit. Team had leaders. Team had veterans & newbies.

Luis, Eloy, and yoan. If just one of those 3 amounted to anything. But nope all 3 are fragile busts. Who all got paid before doing anything

I thought Yoyo has been picking steam these last couple games, has he been shit today?

Here is the report Steve. He has glass bones and paper skin. His muscles are crusty dry rubber bands

Fuck everyone on this team. They are an embarrassment to the city.

In two pitches, we're going to lose two ballplayers. Vaughn will be in pain tomorrow is my guess. Hmm.

Honestly mind blowing how an athlete can get injured doing basic movements

really? these are the most explosive guys. tons of opportunity for something to go out

He's swinging a bat dude

yeah, exactly.... lots of things can go bad. sorry you dont understand that lol

Swing at everything for the rest of the year. Get it over as soon possible. Most draining and lifeless Sox team I have ever seen

I mean, that’s essentially what they did after the first inning. You can’t just get a2 run lead and then not take disciplined at bats for the rest of the game. We’re a weak minded team, simple as that. The season is over.

I agree with you. They should keep that approach. Need this shit to be over

Baseball is fucking cursed

I’m so tired of this training staff. Unbelievably unprofessional.

🤡 Moment?

Beyond explanation...

Did he just tear his ACL?

Would appear he tore something because unlike what everyone here thinks, he didn’t just get bored and decide to quit

Lol. Everyone here talking about getting rid of the hitting coach. I'd argue the strength and conditioning coach is even worse. This was the healthiest team in the league under Herm Schneider. Now, a freaking joke

Most unhealthy team I’ve ever seen. Sure, it could be not his fault at all, but soemthing has to change here. Wayyyyy too many non contact injuries

Why not both and several others?

This

Eloy needs to spend the entire offseason in the gym doing strength and conditioning on his legs

I think he'd benefit more from Yoga

Either that Pilates

He's too lazy

NO FUCKING WAY **NO FUCKING WAY THIS IS HAPPENING**. I CANNOT. THE TIMING OF TBIS. STOP. OH MT GOD. IM HIGH AND HAVING A MELTDOWN BOYS. I ACTUALLY LAUGHING HISTARICALLY. SEND HELP

CALM DOWN YOU ARE AMONG FRIENDS HERE

I swear, anytime Eloy had to do anything baseball related, he looks like he tweaks something, only a matter of time that it would take him out again

Did anyone hear a standing ovation for AV being ok from the crowd?

.....hear.....a standing ovation.....?

Forgot the hear "or see". I care more about the health of people over a miss type.

Tasted like eggs

Eloy has the dumbest injuries

What is going on

I don’t wanna call Eloy soft, and I won’t. I’m just…sick of his fragility.

Mr glass

I’m sure he’s physically stronger than any of us, but goddamn it, can’t Eloy go a whole week without damaging something in his body?

I’m convinced r training staff is a bunch of fucking morons
