Sports_Freak Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Chicago is a really bad baseball team and they're going to sweep the Tigers. I guess a bad team is better than a horrible team. Quote

We, on the other hand, have Eduardo Rodriguez and Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize and Matt Manning and Spencer Turnbull and Riley Greene and Matt Vierling and Kerry Carpenter and Austin Meadows all unavailable and not playing for us. If we had most of those guys with us on the team, we'd probably be in a better position to take this series. Quote

True, if healthy this team might actually win 10 games this June instead of maaayyyybe the 5 games max that they're looking at as is, stronk🤷♂️ Quote
jz68 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 I hate the White Sox but love those old school uniforms. Quote
Dtrain72 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Sox just need to put us out of our misery here Quote

Dtrain72 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Sweet, sweet mercy...I give this team credit for not going into a death spiral until June, baby steps. Quote

Dtrain72 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 On the bright side, at least we're not the A's! Quote

Tigeraholic1 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Miss use of Lange. You can’t get someone to live the closer mentality life and then put him in these situations. Get the lead in the 10th bring him in. We can’t score, the end. Quote
chasfh Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Nobody expected this would happen, but hey man ... baseball. Quote

I believe this was a game we really needed to win, so I agree with managing for today rather than managing for the season. In a case like that, you bring in your best man in your highest-leverage situation, and leverage does not get any higher than this. I don't believe this was the time for Tony La Russa-style push-button bullpen management, where the "closer" comes in only in a save situation. It just so happened it didn't work out this time. I don't think today hurts Lange's trade value, if he's made available on the block. Edited June 4, 2023 by chasfh Quote
gehringer_2 Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Could there be a different reliever of the month in June? Meh - Lange had a bad day - but who knows, if they had scored a couple of runs and he came in not having to work so fine maybe he doesn't walk anyone. There aren't many times I'm going to fault the pitching in a loss when we scored 2 or less. Quote
