The bullpen has been very good to great since the trade deadline. Bullpen by committee with Jordan Hicks, Sean Newcomb, Bryan Hudson, Huascar Brazobán, Trevor Richards, and Erick Fedde and Grant Taylor being my favorite… Nasty 12-6 curve!!

The "Green Bay sucks" chant at Sox vs Cubs games is so meatball, but so right.

Keep slugging, keep winning series. The finish line is within reach. Five game lead in the loss column on negative run differential Minnesota.

Definitely not going to drive here from the NW Suburbs. Looks pretty cool. Hope they plan to pay for all of it themselves.

The Ariel view looks pretty neat. Looks like getting in and out of the stadium would be a pain in the but.

It’s not too bad if you’re going south. You can hop right on 90 in Chinatown or cut over on Cermak to Ashland or Damen for 55.

North ramps at Roosevelt and 18th street put you right in 90/94/290 nightmare.

The current ballpark is 35 years old and they've done renovations to it, but whatever. If this is part of Ishbia moving in and Jerry moving out, that's the main proposition I'm concerned with. Modernize the front office and franchise from top to bottom. It's time to become a modern MLB franchise and no longer function under Jerry's nepo madness of former players and loyalists. Invest in scouting, tech, analytics and the farm system like other teams do.

New ballpark isn't even the tip of the iceberg.

Colson needs to spend the entire summer fixing his swing, I would honestly send him down to start the year and promote Bonemer or Roch.

They’ve made this much harder than they needed to in multiple facets, but they’re still battling.

I can’t wait to have a pitching staff good enough to never have to use an “opener” ever again.

Sox are third in the AL in OBP, but the SLG has dipped and they sit at 7th. Which means OPS is now 6th.

Their SLG dropping has coincided with this rougher patch lately. Bar go far team go far.

Mune needs a week off, and or dropped way down in the order. 55ks in last 105ABs.. He is pressing way to hard. Need to get bat on ball, and he is not seeing it.

There are 12 games left and they have a two game lead in the loss column on Cleveland. They can't give him a week off. I don't think you start jacking around with the order either.

I do agree that if he were hitting more home runs and or getting on base, that would be great, but I don't see any obvious replacement for him coming off the bench to give these plate appearances to.
