Insane

The White Sox, make that manager Mickey Mouse, keep playing Andrew Benintendi and Martin Maldonado, as if things are going to change. Talk about insane. Mouse’s idea of batting Benintendi lower in the order is to slot him fifth, why, I have no idea. With the Sox down 4-2 to the damn’ Yankees in the eighth inning last night, up came Benintendi with the tying runs in scoring position. The Yankees brought in lefty Caleb Ferguson to face the lefthand-hitting Benintendi. Ferguson had a 6.00 ERA while Benintendit was 3-for-32 against lefties. After striking out, he’s now 3-for-33. Sox go on to lose, 4-2. And Maldonado? Why, 0-for-3 with another two strikeouts along with a passed ball that set up a New York run. Maldonado is now batting .097 with 31 strikeouts in 72 at-bats. Insane.
