Series Thread: The Whoevers vs the Good Guys

[Jiddy]

Maybe his name is Yasmani because every time you need an actual hit out of him you say to yourself...Yaaaaaa

 

[podsox]

So tony pinch hit leury with the tying run at the plate instead of TA in the 7th... okay

Definitely not happy with a split, but it could have been worse. We'd be in a bit of a panic mode if we lost both games today and heading into tomorrow facing Bieber.

However, interestingly enough, Cease currently carries a 2.98 ERA, whereas Bieber's is 3.13 - go figure.

White Sox vs. Indians: How to Fade Shane Bieber vs. Chicago

BJ Cunningham breaks down the betting value in Tuesday night's MLB matchup between the Chicago White Sox and Cleveland Indians.

www.actionnetwork.com

The White Sox have one of the best offenses in baseball, entering this game tied for the second best wOBA of .332. They’ve been crushing both left- and right-handed pitching with over 110 wRC+ against both this season.

The South Siders don’t have many weaknesses from a pitch-mix standpoint. They rank in the top 10 against fastballs, sliders and curveballs, which are Bieber’s three main pitches. Chicago should have a good matchup against Cleveland’s ace.

edit: The Indians have a difficult matchup against Cease because the Indians have really struggled versus fastballs (-2.3 weighted fastball runs per FanGraphs), which is the pitch Cease goes to most often at almost 50% of the time. Cease also goes to his slider over 30%, which is another pitch the Indians have struggled against (-8.6 weighted slider runs per FanGraphs).

My dreams of you being a Luddite are deeply smashed.

The Sox are not out of any game with any team - that's why are they good.

 

[Jiddy]

Holy balls. Nice catch kid.

 

[Jiddy]

Billy Hamilton so awesome!

 

[idseer]

guess the wrong cease showed up.

 

[Jiddy]

Is it me or was Lamb obnoxiously communicating the signs to Billy during that at-bat with head turns?

 

[Jiddy]

Probably just me and he was checking his blind spit for pick offs...but man it seemed like he was doing it intentionally.

 

[idseer]

when jose fails, he fails big! both the 8th and the 9th inning.

 

[Trudem]

TA really needs to get out of the funk he is in. He is what drives this offense.

 

[Trudem]

Damnit. postponed again

 

[Mingo]

I was up for a game this afternoon.

I do think the White Sox end up having an advantage in 7inning double headers - due to the depth of the starters and Kopech.
