    We've played the White Sox for 1/3 of our games. May need to see more big league lineups first

    We are 6-6 against non-White Sox teams.

    Starters are vastly overperforming. Staff overall is 2nd in ERA while being bottom-5 in K's and 20th in xFIP. Regression is about to hit hard soon.

    We are one major injury away from the lineup looking like doo doo. The current 7-8-9 situation is gross.

    All that being said, I'm still having fun watching this team and would be thrilled if they hovered around .500 this year.

    That’s the big thing. We don’t have any depth to get us by once injuries hit. Hopefully we either miraculously stay healthy or some AAA guys break out.

    Yeah, that was the clear move to make room for Massey. They weren’t dropping Frazier this early. I wonder why they pulled Waters from the game as well? Maybe it was injury related.

    Could Will Smith be any more useless? Just scared half of the Sportsbook at the MGM with the random “OH FUCK YOU YOU BITCH” I just screamed.

    Oh damn! So close Vin. That was a damn good piece of hitting by Bobby. Very tough pitch to lace up the middle.
