Running Keuchel/Velasquez out there every 5th day for awhile is why I’m not worried about the pythag record. It wouldn’t shock me if there were multiple stretches of 5 games this season in which the Sox won 3 or 4 games and we’re outscored. The rotation is good enough to keep the team in it, too, even if we don’t see an offensive outburst… ever. And because we aren’t seeing offensive outbursts, one dud a week from a started is bound to keep the run differential in the negative.

Jim produces an incredible amount of content with an extremely low typo rate. However,this article has a typo that I think could cause confusion in the blurb about signing Loidel Chapellà Jr. The blurb says he was signed for “$500,00”. I think he was signed for $500,000 so the comma is in the right place but there’s a missing zero.

Yeah, the White Sox too.
I checked your membership, and that’s still active, so no issue there.
I flushed your Patreon connection. Let me know if that helped.

I tried logging into the story with a Patreon account and got into a loop. When I logged in through the main login page, it stuck.
See if that works, and I’ll look into the other issue tonight.

My AI didn’t understand why all the zeroes were necessary.
