Horrible pitching by Kuechel..

Andctge way White Sox can't hit ,this game looks over already.
 
Whote Sox shoukd just concede the game...ovwr for sure now...pity tge fans that paid to watch this wretched "efgort" by Kuechel...He either stinks or he is throwing the game to get sone kind of bet won...Just horrific givebibs to Redmon batters with cream puff pitches.
 
The 2022 White Sox are not a good pitching team.

40+ games and we’re below average in every category u can think of, with the one exception being strikeouts. We have a lot of strikeouts.

But it’s irrelevant because our ERA is bad. Our WHIP is bad. Our opponents BA is bad. Our BB% is horrendous. Etc, etc, etc…

This team has the label of being a good pitching team because of what they did last season, well it’s time to change and adjust to the new roster and new season. We aren’t good anymore. The #s don’t lie. We give up a ton of runs and base runners. Both the rotation and the bullpen. It’s a mess.

They have all of the markers of a 90 loss team
 
They have the 3rd worst run differential in the AL. Only KC and Detroit are worse.

Their pythagorean W-L is equivalent to the Reds.
And this is why run differential is a flaky stat to go by. It's kind of like +/- in hockey. Nearly half of that stat (20 of their minus 42) is from the Red Sox series that they lost 2 out of 3 in.

Keuchel sucks and hopefully will be released soon. Today maybe? Please?!?? And Cease had an uncharacteristic bad start. Stop overreacting. I know that's your schtick, though.

Now - if you had said they have all the makings of a .500 team that wont make the playoffs. At this point, you would have a solid point. They're basically a .500 team since what, the allstar break last year?

The alarming part to me is, they don't even seem to recognize the glaring holes on this team, that even casual fans can identify.

But there's a long way to go. Calm down. Lynn and Eloy are coming soon. I'd love to see the Eloy from 2020 make a reappearance.

The one big change I would make as soon as possible is fire the hitting coach. Guys like Moncada and Eloy seem like they need a different approach. We're in danger of some of these big prospects busting out if this lingers on too much longer.

We've seen the #'s for how Menechino teams are over the top with ground ball percentage, which works against how you win baseball games in this era. Especially with all the crazy analytical shifting that is constantly going on. It's hard to poke that ball through the infield, when they mathematically know where you hit it most of the time.

I just don't know if they could find a suitable replacement for Menechino in the middle of the season?

Anyway, go Sox!

I don't even think their true talent is this bad but if the offense doesn't get their shit together they might lose 85+ games.

Tommy Pham walked up to Joc Pedersen and slapped him because "fantasy football disagreement."

This is not an "the onion" story but seems to be a legit story. What a petty little female dog, Tommy Pham is.
Baseball players throw 90+mph missiles at each other for admiring home runs. It's a totally foreign way of life.
