What happened to Luis Robert, one of the darlings of the "bro" crowd?

In 80 games he is batting .219 with 116 K's and only 23 walks.

He was a stud for Cuba, and then in the minors, but these guys with horrible walk to strikeout ratios might have a decent season here and there, but for the most part they "get figured out" eventually in major league ball, and they seem to regress, the longer their career goes on.

With six games remaining against the Angels I expect the Sox winning percentage to improve before the end of the season.

Agreed. There are very few hitters with the talent to consistently hit pitches out of the strike zone. If a guy can't learn to lay off those pitches, it very likely is not going to work out well.

White Sox up to 32 wins after beating Baltimore 8-1 to snap a 12 game losing streak.

Let's start a vote on how many losses they end up with...



I'll be the first to go...they surprise everyone and win out the remaining schedule!

I'm hoping they win no more than 35 to win less than the 1916 Philadelphia A's but I think they will surpass that with nine games left with the Angels and the A's, I will guess they finish 38-124.
