Which is a full run less then April, and not enough to overcome an at best average rotation as currently constructed.

Ok. Keeping up their April pace all season would’ve resulted in them scoring 950+ runs, which had happened like 10 times in the last 60 years. Instead, they’re merely the 2nd best offense in baseball. Just feels weird to harp on the offense when the starting pitching staff is the obvious Achilles heel of the team.

For a guy so talented defensively he makes bone headed plays from time to time. 

Definitely has some Javy in him. A little too much lately.

The Happ criticism is just so weird. 

I don’t know if it counts as criticism or not but he’s definitely our 8th best hitter at the moment, which is sad more than anything 

[BKHoo]

Are we still going to call a guy who struggles to throw a fastball 90 mph an ace?

They should bench Happ until he agrees to waive that no trade clause 

I was told you cant talk bad about Happ, that it just bad luck.

🤷‍♂️

 

Im going to flip on Netflix and continue watching The Vikings, im in the final season.

Good show

[Nolansomebody]

Tauchman hits a 2-runner.

I think I’m tapping out as well.

Such a dumb move by Jed. He was no where near the caliber of player to demand that. 

Does it really matter?  Nobody's trading for Happ right now, with or without the no trade clause.

I’m complimenting the whitesox. Right now they look like the march Cubs playing vs the Athletics. Point to where I’m blaming the offense of slighting them,

I hate the term ace anyway. 

[Derwood]

I don' tknow why the White Sox offense is scorching hot this week, but they are

[Geographyhater8888]

What a despicable, chicken horsefeathers performance by this team. They’re getting massacred by bad teams lately too.

They should just put him on IL and bring up Caissie, a move like this can give a team a little spark

[Geographyhater8888]

2 minute half inning, Sox score another 3 runs, 1 minute half inning, Sox score another pair in the bottom half, rinse and repeat until the top of the 9th.

[BigSlick]

The cubs should feel bad 

[UMFan83]

Last 5 games we are 1-4 with a combined score of 35-11

You don’t bring Caissie up if he is the potential centerpiece of your upcoming trade. If he is here after the deadline, yes if Happ continues to struggle. 

[Derwood]

14 hits in 4 IP

[Hot Sauce]

This team needs a spark. What’s the baseball equivalent of sending the goons out? 

[Derwood]

Brujan is bad at baseball

[BigSlick]

So far Brujan is a negative offensively AND defensively. An impressively bad player. 

[Hot Sauce]

If there was one fan in all of Chicago defending Bruján he just lost him. 🤣
