This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen on this forum and that’s impressive.
It’s really embarrassing. It’s the White Sox under Jerry Reinsdorf though. Short-sighted, penny wise and pound foolish, etc.
I’m sure Brooks Boyer has a fucking stiffy just thinking about putting a lame broadcaster from Notre Dame in the booth
It’s not lazy. Robert is the best player on the team. It was a good way to point out how good Benetti is at his job. Saying he’s better at his job than Andrew Vaughn isn’t a compliment but Andrew Vaughn sucks.
Lol, seriously you're that invested in the TV commentator for the White Sox? I already acknowledged I realize I am in a small minority that were happy to see him leave. I am sorry that me not being a big Jason Benetti fan like you is so upsetting.

How so? They clearly didn’t let him go to appease the fanbase.
It's appeasing to me lol. I know I am in the very small minority but couldn't stand listening to the clown. As much as I like listening to Stone I would mute it when watching the games.

This restores some faith that the White Sox are still capable of making good decisions. If morons on the Score are in an uproar over it then you know you did the right thing.

Soler will injure himself standing up after signing the deal.
Well if Eloy is dealt someone needs to take his place.

This is the definition of shuffling the chairs on the titanic. This franchise is doomed.
And I can almost guarantee they will shift away from the tear down and try to patch this team back together. Jerry’s main goal has always been to stay relevant just to profit.Currently this is such a mess that it would be a major leap to get to relevant. Trying to patch the team back together on a budget means another 90+ loss season again next year.

Rearrange the deck chairs on the titanic...

Really should have listened to me and moved Cease at the deadline when he had high value. At this point I'm getting quite concerned that there is something more to this and next thing you know we see a DL stint.
I actually hope it is that he is injured, because the alternative is that he just sucks.

Give someone a shot for a good organization.
It is just mind boggling that this is so hard to figure out. Why not hire someone from a good organization that has witnessed how it is done? Instead hire someone internally who has witnessed exactly how not to do it and had a hand in it. Then if they dare to look outside of the organization they look for people from the Kansas City f'in Royals? You are one of the worst handful of teams in baseball and so if you look outside you look to one of the few that are possibly worse? You can't make this stuff up.

I'd rather they hire a beer vendor for the Rays than Getz.

Is a grown man really admitting he received texts that hurt his feelings? Seriously I am astonished anyone would care about this. Even funnier to me is that he runs to Bud Selig and reports the texts lol.

Hahn’s first year felt a lot like Phil Emery’s last year with the Bears. They hired Trestman, it collapsed completely in year two, and the Bears just said “nope” and completely started fresh. The White Sox extended everyone and Hahn is still here a decade later.
Jeez talk about kicking someone when they're down...Being a White Sox fan is bad enough and then you have to remind everyone about Trestman lol.

I’m not one to stick up for TA, but which one is it? Everyone is saying the clubhouse needs a vocal leader who will speak up and lead the team. Fans cannot criticize the man for speaking up against bullshit like that but in the next breath complain that no one in the locker room is speaking up or taking control of the club house. Good on Tim for calling bullshit what it is.
Not saying it is wrong for TA to say something but don't think a smartass comment in front of other teammates is the approach a good leader takes. It's not surprising that type of comment wasn't received well.

I’m the first one to call out TA for his bs but this is NOT one of those reason. Get rid of Grandal, how the hell can this dude still be on this team?!?
If the story is true then you're saying that TA conducted himself in a way you want someone to in a professional organization? They sound like a pair of dimwits and both should be sent packing.

i'm sorry guys. I'm gonna wait a bit on this one because I think Shane Riordan is a moron. He's probably going to be wrong in one aspect that makes the fact that he's wrong worse.
Truer words have never been spoken lol

Who’s the rookie pitcher in question? I’m thinking Santos
If Santos then maybe more of our pitchers should sleep in the bullpen lol. He has been better than alot of them.

They could make an offer but when was the last time JR allowed a nine figure deal?
There you have it. Not happening.
Yes, and certainly wouldn't make Giolito the first.

I meant that if were good by 2026 Robert will almost surely leave as a free agent after 2027 if he continues to play like he has because hes going to command a massive contract that we wouldn't give him.
yeah that makes sense but I guess we could see how 2026 is looking and if not in the playoff picture that season could still trade him at the deadline and would think he would bring back a good return since he would still be under contract for 2027.

You guys that want to hang onto Robert while this team sucks baffle me. Why? What's the point? I don't think they would trade him, but if they got their socks blown off by an offer why would it be a hard no?
Will this team contend for a championship in 2024? Not a chance.
Will they contend for a championship in 2025? Highly unlikely.
What about 2026? Probably not, maybe. At this point in time we have Robert for one more season, and if he continues to get better you can kiss his ass goodbye as he wont be getting a 350+ million dollar contract to play here.
I guess Idk what you mean by one more season and you can kiss him goodbye? Isn't he a free agent in 2028? I wouldn't say absolutely not trade him but it would sure take some incredible offer to trade him.

Any major victory for Rick Hahn and the front office! Dude has been crushing it this week.
Now let's trade Cease and Robert and really stock the farm. If we can't compete in the actual standings then we might as well win the prospect ranking game!
Hahn is good at making a team bad when he is and isn't trying to do so.

You don't let Rick Hahn trade Robert or Cease. You let the next GM do it.
The problem is the next GM will not get here until Cease/Robert contracts are up. Trade Cease, keep Robert.

Robert is such a streaky hitter, I could easily see him flipping 180⁰ next year and being very mediocre at the plate. Sell high on him if you can ask for whatever you want
He is still relatively young so I think he could become a more consistently good hitter. I would be surprised if he did a complete 180 next year. I would agree if you're going to trade him now would be a good time.

Only one I wouldn't trade is Robert. White Sox could conceivably be good (but probably not lol) before his contract is up.

Matz is 0-7 on the year with an ERA over 5. He hasn’t started a game since May 24, I’m guessing he was pulled from the rotation for poor performance since he was in the Bullpen for June. The Cardinals have lost the last 10 games he pitched in and are 2-16 in games where he pitched. This is actually rather impressive.
So you're saying the White Sox will have one run after 5 or 6 innings.

Benetti to Tigers

I am no Benetti fan but yes this would be even worse.
