Writing about the White Sox for a 16th season, first here, then at South Side Sox, and now here again. Let’s talk curling.
If health is on his side, Leury is gonna have 600+ PAs. That’s a bad thing, but TLR can’t bench him because Lamb is useless, Yermin can’t field, Collins is a catcher, and Hamilton is Hamilton.
Leury’s groundout was the first White Sox batted ball under 103 mph in the game
Wow, that bodes well for later.
Vaughn’s been pressing. He started the season with patience, but he’s been chasing a lot his last few at bats. I’m hoping once he gets his first hit, the patience returns.
Are completely weird games against the Mariners still a thing?
We need a few more innings to find out usually.
Rodon is looking pretty amazing tonight.
I get unreasonably excited by Robert walks with multiple good takes like that one.
Man didn’t Sheffield throw upper 90’s when he was with the Yankees? That’s a lot of lost velo in a short amount of time
Yep, he had a mid-90s four seamer, but switched to a sinker exclusively that sits around 91 mph.
That fan has better hands than half this team
For a game they aren’t losing this is brutal
Rodon is filthy tonight
13 whiffs so far for Rodon tonight. Average fastball velocity has been 2.5 mph higher than last year.
With the way Vaughn’s looking right now, I’ll take an RBI HBP.
Heart of the offense, Billy Hamilton
I’ve always heard that Seattle is a pedestrian friendly city but all these walks are too much
Sorry, Zack, but you’re just a backup catcher now.
Also, remember all of the excuses about how hard it is to DH? Apparently, Mercedes doesn’t mind it.
Rodon back out after barely escaping the last two innings. Alright
98 mph
and three feet over Yas’ head
Bailed out by Andrew Vaugh’s defense!
Twice!
I believe with what I saw in the replay, his naturally “buggy” eyes would make for a great screenshot as he was backing up to catch that ball.
My boy Rodon’s redemption Cy Young tour starts now.
Kopech? more like KKKopech
Maybe one more or less K there?
Well considering he ended at 5Ks it’s KKKKKopech now.
At least Vaughn has a way to go until he gets into Jacob May territory
