  1. I just hope they bring him up and play him! Like...almost everyday unless he proves he can't handle it! Don't sit him for a couple of days after playing...
  2. This! Grandal might be the exception...but we sign guys we "hope" will bounce back or finally live up to potential!
  3. TLR acted like Leury's agent last summer...the praise given to Leury from TLR was over the top! I think TLR loves Leury...but TLR isn't the one who gave Leury a 3 year deal.
  4. Same here...I just can't understand this at all!
  5. Yep...although it is hard to positively "grade" paths that aren't taken but this post is spot on!
  6. Larry Himes/Jeff Torborg era is among my favorite White Sox eras...just a fun time once Himes got it going in the right direction! Torborg was the perfect manager for that era! Wish both would have stuck around longer than they were allowed to!
  7. Is the 26 man roster something that is being proposed? When did it go to 25? 1990? I remember thinking "wow, 25 men is a lot to have on a roster"! LOL!
  8. I agree with this sentiment...it seems like we have been hearing about him forever...waiting on this big-time prospect...and here we are still waiting!
  9. That guy could pitch! Had trouble with those personal demons but wow could he pitch! Crazy that he was involved in trades (both coming to the White Sox and leaving) that involved some legendary White Sox names! RIP!
  10. Sad...just watched the 1992 A-S game this weekend and he pitched in it. I think Robin might have hit off him...either way they said he had a tough 1991, signed a minor league deal for the Astros that winter and made the All-Star game. Sad to hear this.
  11. I enjoyed Fregosi but I was a kid...I loved his successor! Torborg might be my second favorite White Sox manager!
  12. Thanks for pointing me in this direction! I enjoy going back in time...
  13. Dang...just looked at the boxscore...wish the entire game was on YouTube...cuts off in the 7th inning when it was raining so I thought maybe that was it? Nope...there was some action that takes place after that point: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHA/CHA198805150.shtml
  14. I apologize if this should be in one of the other forums but wasn't sure...
  15. Anyone ever go back and watch any "old" White Sox games on YouTube? I have found myself diving into deep nostalgia and watching some games from Comiskey. Just brings up so many great memories (not necessarily the play or the teams...LOL), just fun to be able to see the Palace again and hear the voices I listened to and see the players that I cheered for growing up! Last night I watched this one which isn't an entire game (unless it was rain-shortened) but had some fun highlights and reminded me how great of an analyst Paciorek was!
