Is it to much to ask for this team to do this earlier in the year?

I feel like they likely still come up at least a couple of games short and we will spend the whole offseason screaming about how bad Dipoto was with player acquisitions and how badly mismanaged the team overall was for more than 50% of the year. It really wouldn't have taken much to win 2 more games.

I was going through..a bit of pitching..
On mini..thread .and came to..
A bit of same conclusion..
But didn't think .
Anything would happen..this fast...
Wow..
Guess..they really..were..overworked a bit..

Cool..let's see Hancock.

Man the White Sox are a mess. First Middleton says guys are sleeping in the bullpen during games, missing meetings, and missing fielding practice. Lance Lynn said I was there a lot longer than Middleton and I can tell you he ain't lying.

Now this:

The Chicago White Sox are a mess, as more and more about the team and clubhouse culture is coming out…
Grandal wasn't in the lineup the day before the All Star break. Wanted to just leave early. Made it very clear. Paraphrasing, TA said: “F him. If he doesn't want to be here, I'll pay for his flight.”
Grandal walked over to Anderson in the tub and slapped him across the face.

I just can not believe the continuous whiff on hitters they bring in.

If you only shop for new vehicles at a used car lot and generally refuse to go for the best they have, you aren't going to find a high end performance ride.

I called that fucking leadoff hit at home. He got busted twice inside at 98 so I said do not throw a slider away. He will stick out the bat for a bloop hit. Sure fucking enough. Learn baseball Mariners!!!!

 

[ulmax]

Yeah but that is what happens..in a long season..
That's why..you need..8-9 pitchers.

Ray.out
Gonzales..out.
Flexen..dfaed..
Woo..now out..
.down 4 of 8..
Normal..normal..

Yep.

I can not believe for the life of me that Dipoto really thought those three from AZ were real hitters. I truly believe it was a salary dump and he got enough in volume that it didn't appear to be an actual dump. It has to be that.

 

[ulmax]

And Jedi keeps.
Churning the bull pen..mill..
Cuz ya gotta have those.guys as well..

 

[WizardHawk]

Solid win. Needed that with Darvish going against Hancock tomorrow.
