What's crazy is we have this demon in Triple-A and I honestly couldn't tell you who should be demoted for him. Like why are Trevor Richards and Brandon Eisert decent
@clarkisking1 I know you're a Tigers fan so voting for Vargas is the last thing you wanna do, but bro...look at the defensive stats for 3B. Vargas is same offense as Caminero + light-years better defense. Has to be him or J-Ram
@paulderdash1 I meant just for this season if they're competitive and trying to maximize value to make the playoffs. 100% they'd never resort to that as the long-term plan, but you could be right that it's never an option
4.1 IP, 9 Ks lol. If he keeps up the recent improvements, it will be interesting seeing what the Sox do, could see them trying to use him as a deadly long reliever this season if pitch counts stay high
Hagen Smith on the bump for the #Knights on Tuesday. He goes 4.1 and allows 1R on 2H and 2BB. He strikes out 9 on 55k/89p. He gets a ND in the contest, but he left up 3-1.
Haven't had a real sox jersey in years. Was waiting to see who of this core really stood out to me. I fear I've stumbled into a very good problem because it's gonna be impossible to choose between Teel, Antonacci, Murakami, Vargas, Montgomery
@Noahp245 This is pretty silly imo. You have the benefit of hindsight here. Sosa led the team in HRs last year and had a respectable OAA/xwOBA while Mead showed nothing last year, there's no universe they would've done this
@AnnoyedSoxFan There's no guarantee things go the same way, but I highly doubt they would walk Antonacci. And if they don't, his infield single would've scored the run for sure. Mune is still the scarier hitter and if you get Antonacci out then you get to walk Mune. Get your point though
I'm happy for Rikuu getting a chance and throwing guys out, but you can't be a slap-hitting speedster and whiff on three straight bunt attempts. It's completely unacceptable and it cost the Sox the game, hope he doesn't actually struggle at bunting going forward
Pitching was the name of the game on Tuesday for the #WhiteSox core affiliates as they notched a clean sweep!
