KC Royal Pains @ White Sox

[Mingo]

Kopech goes tonight. Maybe the Sox will get two games above .500 for the first time in 4 months (or, maybe not). Won't be long until Matt Moore arrives from the Rangers.

One thing Michael has to be careful with tonite and that's giving up freebies. The Royals know how to take walks. They're a decent hitting team, altho their stats suggest they leave a lot of men stranded on base. We need this dub.

As to Matt Moore arriving from the Rangers. Did we make a trade? Checked my various Sox sites and nada. But maybe it hasn't reached them yet. Checking his numbers, he's having a fairly solid season, altho a bit generous with the BBs. But he'd definitely bolster the pen. And did you see that Hahn actually made an attempt to land Shohei Ohtani???? Wonder who he offered up as trade bait.

Sox better destroy these losers. They already traded away Benintendi too.

Sox love making headlines for almost getting superstars. They are great at it

Can't argue that one. The Wuda/Cuda/Shuda boys.

I was just making an educated guess - Moore is a LH reliever for a team the Sox are friendly with - only one lefty in the Sox bullpen - TLR can't stand that.

Diekman has walked 30 batters in 38 innings. Woof

Why are the Sox trading for a lefty that seemingly fares better against RH hitters?

He has a terrible walk rate and is giving up more flyballs than ever. How does this help our team?

Guessing they were willing to take anything for McGwire. They weren’t keeping 3 catchers and none of them had options left. Media trying to make this sound like a really good move is embarrassing though

You don't think this blockbuster trade locks us into the WS??? Shame on you!!!

Because he costs nothing...... This is a disgusting acquisition. Woof

Sweet trade deadline moves, Rick.

God. This team just makes me want to pull my hair out. They just REFUSE every opportunity to string together a meaningful amount of wins. Despite having such an easy path in front of them right now. 1 run against this pitcher and the rest of this shitty KC staff. Maddening. The division is being handed to us on a silver platter. All we have to do is beat up on some truly awful teams.

 

[Jiddy]

Lame.

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

It's ok gang, we're get 'em tomorrow.
Translation: FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mingo]

Seems to be a pattern to lose the first two games of a four game set and win the last two - no matter who the Sox are playing.

The Sox take the series and into the heady air of two games over .500. Maybe the hitting is coming around with Eloy batting 3rd. The new pitcher has now two good outings.
