***OFFICIAL WHITE SOX 2020 SEASON THREAD***

[zack54attack]

Abreu did it again..

 

[RiDLer80]

Shame our bats went cold yesterday. Cease pitched a damn good game.

 

[dennehy]

NO NO Giolito!

Some amazing stuff tonight, right from the jump.

 

[RubberBanMan]

Sweet

 

[zack54attack]

That was dominant. 13K, 1BB

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Lucas was dealing.

In the past week to ten days, Sox have had back-to-back-to-back-to-back HRs, a player hit a HR in 4 consecutive ABs (and 6 in a series), and have had a No-No.

Not only winning, but you must say...they've given their fans some real excitement.

 

[RiDLer80]

Not just winning, but winning with style!

 

[Icculus]

Hope Eloy didn't injure himself seriously.

 

[didshereallysaythat]

This team is already beating expectations. Just wait for Kopech to come back. Next year is WS or bust.

 

[RiDLer80]

Took care of business against the Pirates now lets do the same to KC.

After that series it looks like we'll have Giolti and Dallas line up for our series at Minnesota.

 

[Icculus]

This year so far is looking like 2000 with the bonus of 2 or 3 starters that can actually pitch (depending on Cease's development) and if/when Dunning is back on the roster possibly 4. Until this year, I forgot how much fun it could be to watch this team. Nice to get that back.

 

[playthrough2001]

It really is cool to see a long term rebuild start to take shape. With Madrigal, Vaughn, Dunning and some others still on the way, the present and future are so promising. Add in two top pitching prospects in this year’s draft and Burger working his way back to form, it’s hard not to get caught up in the excitement.

I hate to say this but imagine this team if they had held on and not traded Tatis Jr. Oh my!

 

[dennehy]

White Sox get Jarrod Dyson. Small move but baserunner and late defense. The kind of move you'd expect for a contender this year.

Late in games, they could throw Engel and Dyson out there with Robert which is pretty solid defensively.

Yeah, thank god that line drive was hit at Engel. As close to him as it was, I don't think another white sock makes the play, is in the right spot, gets the two step early jump and contorts to nab it. Hellavu snatch. I think his jump on the play was underrated, because how do you guess right on a ball knuckling that hard. He went with instincts without hesitation and is really freaking good at outfield.

And Engel-Robert-Dyson reminds me of the old twins "rabbit" outfields built around Hunter-Jones-stewart. They played in and got to everything... everything. Was the most annoying shit ever for years and years and with the domes infield gave them this single you to death advantage that was second to none in baseball given if you weren't built for that you were helpless against their outfield.

 

[Raskolnikov]

Yasmani freaking no doubter walk off Friday.

This team has some magic to them. Might actually be buyers...might I suggest dealing ***** ass Kopech for a now arm? Maybe to Houston so he can go get mental help from Greinke, make it a 3 team trade if necessary.

Too late for Kopech to change his mind?

The walk off was exciting. Nice rebound from a rough top of the 9th...

It’s a good sign when a ridiculous sequence like that seems out of place this year. They’ve been pretty solid on D.

Thats how a catcher picks you up baby!

I was out and just got back @5-5 bottom 9th and was like...ok I'm gonna have to watch this. That lasted about 30 seconds.

 

[dennehy]

When that ridiculous play happened in the top of the ninth I lost it and then thought well, Yasmani is up first in the bottom, he can make up for it. And boom!
