Madrigal really crapped in the punchbowl tonight with his base running.

I am not over this loss. Pisses me off.

I swear, if we don't win tomorrow.

That was like a trip back to 2019.

Madrigal needs to slow his roll on the bases until he figures out which fielders he can take an extra base on (although he was safe at the plate despite the call).

LOL...You know it's been a bad day (ie White Sox lose) when you're busting out "slow your roll" on somebody...

It's taken me longer than a decade to find a situation where I could use "slow your roll." :)

And thus "Slow your roll" Madrigal was born...

Horrible loss last night and the way we lost it. If our season-ending record or playoff standings are decided by one game, I'm going to look back at this one in particular.

Our pitchers need to learn how to not throw sh*t in the dirt, 5 feet outside, pretty much just trying to keep it in the area code of the strike zone would be nice.

Madrigal needs to learn how to run the bases.

Grandal needs to learn how to...catch the ball?!? Sh*t...That was the one thing I DID count on him for. LOL

Because Hahn and Kenny have had hardons for him for a couple years now.

Interestingly enough. I’m starting to like it better when Grandal and McCann play and Encarnacion is the odd man out...sadly I like Encarnacion but he’s been pretty meh. You can get any schlub out there to hit dongs these days so take that sub Mendoza line BS and ride that pine.

Engel over Mazara every day of the week too

Outside of two separate innings in his first and then his previous start - Dane Dunning has had damn near a perfect start to his big league career.

I will be very intrigued to see how he performs when these games become high-pressure late in September and in October.

BTW, thank God we gave ourselves breathing room early. I don't want to be sweating this game because I'm still sour from last night.

Once Leury is back and we have a LH bat who can play right. I suspect we will not see nearly as much of Mazara.

I would have agreed with you if this was a couple of weeks ago. But EE has actually been performing solidly as of late. He's also a groove hitter (and a late starter) - so I like our previous alignment and riding him while he's hot. McCann also has never performed when turned into an every day player, but we won't go down that road ;)
