  1. Frank is absolutely right. Let the starters go until they physically can’t anymore. Our starters gassed at 100+ pitches are still better than the entire bullpen

  2. Just an incredible showing in the ninth inning there. Not many can string that many fuck ups together with such breathtaking consistency.

  3. Kopech may be the worst thing to happen to Chicago since sears tower was renamed

  4. unreal lol. This team has been more fun to watch this year by far, for me.

  5. * Sosa extended his hitting streak to 8 games (6 of which were multi-hit games).
    * Mendick hit a 2-run HR.
    * Lee hit an RBI triple and caught his 14th runner of the season stealing.
    * Cannon allowed 1 ER in 6.0 IP.
    * Bad plays allowed the Marlins to win in the 9th: A leadoff walk, not paying attention to the runner and letting him get to 3rd, and a Pham dropped ball near the LED wall in LF allowed the Marlins to tie the game. This was followed by an intentional walk, a balk, and a Burger walk-off HR.

  6. This is maybe my dumbest take to date, but if you want to win that game you gotta be aware of the script writers lmao.

    Kopech imploding, you cannot issue an intentional walk to get to Jake burger. I don’t care what the stats say lmfao, every single Sox fan watching knew he was gonna walk it off. It wasn’t even a surprise at all when he hit that homer. Anything but.

    So yeah there’s my allotted stupid ass take for the week. Don’t care stand by it lmao.

    Happy for Jake

  7. Mark my words–Kopech will be traded by the deadline, and whatever team he ends up magically fixes him.

  8. Not even mad. Happy for Burger. Seems like it’s been a tough year for him

  9. I want to like Kopech so bad. I was so excited when he was laser-ing 104 heaters down the lane early in the season with good command, even mixing in some good sliders. Now he’s reverted back to the norm. It’s so fucking frustrating.

  10. I would have been more surprised with a win than a loss like that tbh. Love a closer with 8 Ls before the all star break

  11. The Michael Kopech experiment is over. DFA him already. Don’t pick up Moncada’s option. Just wash our hands of that trade completely.

  12. Is Getz telling Pedro to use Kopech in the ninth to try to pass him off as a closer for prospective trades? Or does Pedro genuinely think this is the right role for him?

  13. Listening to Kasper in the 9th was kind of sad/hilarious. He just gradually faded, becoming more and more at peace with the inevitable failure.

  14. Poetic. Just poetic.

    The guy we insist on keeping is walked off by the guy we gave up on.

    Just poetic

  15. I told my SIL when Brebbia came in and they said “Brebbia trying to hold on to this one run lead” that they will lose the game with a walk off homerun. Then I checked out and came back and saw 2 outs with Bell up and Kopech and said ok here comes the walk off. The he hits the ball of the wall and I’m like oh so close. Then Burger is up and the balk happens and again I’m like ok here’s the walk off. I’m only sharing because of how unnoteworthy this prediction is.

  16. Kopech is starting to look less like a struggling pitcher and more like an infielder with Steve Sax Syndrome. He’s so shaken out there that he doesn’t even trust his footing on the mound anymore. He’s given up on everything except his fastball, and the only way he can throw that for a strike is to groove it down the middle of the plate. This is a dude who’s just melting down in front of our eyes to the point where’s he’s completely forgotten how to play baseball.

    I’m sure Kopech has his own mental health professional(s) he works with, and I’m sure the team has them as well. And as I’m not one myself, I can’t claim to know what’s best for him. But from a baseball standpoint it seems to me like the guy needs to take a week off and then go down to the minors, work on getting back to throwing all of his pitches for strikes, and get his confidence back. Because it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen in the majors.

  17. LMFAO tried to tell you guys. Just an FYI, loser Jake Eder will never play in the big leagues.

  18. Tommy Pham working on his hands in the offseason but can’t catch the fucking ball.
