Bozo the Clown would be an improvement.

Is there a parade on the Southside today to celebrate yesterday's victory?

Being shutout 6 times in the first 16 games, the 2024 White Sox are on pace to get shut out about 61 times this season. The major league record is only 33 by the 1908 St Louis Cardinals and the American League record is only 30 by 1909 Washington Senators. The AL and MLB records have both stood up for over 100 years but we may earn a place in the record book by the all star break the way this season is going. This team is an absolute joke and its amazing that this organization can put together a roster that is this bad.

I'm hoping for Ribbie. Or Rhubarb if Ribbie ends up on the DL

Does anyone think that part of the blame for these injuries may be on Grifol instead of the training staff? Maybe programs are designed for these with continual injuries and just not being followed. The training staff may be on the locker room dealing with injured players (taping, massages, etc) pregame and Grifol needs to make sure they are following recommended pregame routines. Since players obviously have no respect for him and don't listen to him about anything else, why would they listen to him if this is the case. I know the player still holds a great deal of responsibility if this is the case but we need a leader for this team to make sure these young men don't make mistakes.

Yeah, his pre-game comments don't look good lol
This isn't the first time Grifol has looked bad. Seems to happen 3-4 times per day minimum

If this team is going to suck so badly, I figured I might as well start making money off them.

I knew this team was going to historical bad before the season started. I pegged them for about 30 wins and am now thinking that was generous. That's why I didn't even think about a spring training trip this year and have no plans to see a game at all this year in Chicago or on a west coast road trip. I'll save my money for things that can be enjoyable (and right now White Sox baseball is not on that list)

This is what happens when a low budget owner hires a low budget GM.

We did gat a bonus point for the milkshake though. At least this organization did one thing to improve in the offseason.
-
That game was fun but I still keep the over / under at 30 wins for the season.

Only Carrot Top is still available to manage the Sox. The other two guys are deceased.
Dead guys could still manage better than Pedro

I’d be in favour of Urkel, personally.
The “did I do thaaat??” after every loss would really help take the edge off.
I think Grifol should under these words after all 10-15 wins this season. As bad as he is, every win should be a surprise and an embarrassment to whomever we beat.

This might actually get them over the 60-win mark. No joking.
I'll stick with the under.

Grifol hasn't even called a team meeting, YET.
Ron Washington managed a 4-1 win for LAA Sunday after the first lecture about his Angels team and that "we can't get off track."
"We just got to make certain that we come to be the ballpark ready to go."
Grifol could call a team meeting and zero players might show. That's how little leadership I think he has.

Looking forward to 2025 2026 2027
I'm not expecting us to contend for the playoffs til probably 2030......But I want to see some improvement next season. Back to back years with 30-35 wins could be unwatchable.

Whats realistic for the start of the rebuild next season? If we get a new manager and add a couple of mid level starters, can we reach 45 wins? 50 wins? I don't see more than 30 this year, so is a 50-65% improvement realistic or do you expect more?

Those who remember Bevington, was he worse than Grifol?
Bevington was 10x the manager that Grifol is.....and that is no compliment. I would take Carrot Top, Screech, or Pee Wee Herman over either of this imbecibles.

Getz has got this; he can make moves and decisions and probably has a list of candidates to replace Grifol if needed.
A replacement was needed 2 years ago (before he ever managed his first game)

Going 61-101 with this years team may have been acceptable. Having that record with last years team was not. And losing 120+ games this year with this crappy roster is still not. He's the worst manager in the history of MLB and its not questionable.

Unless positive changes happen midseason, I really think 35-40 wins is our max for this year. Its not possible for a team with no hitting, no pitching, and the worst manager in the history of baseball to do any better.

As long as Grifol is around, we will never be competitive. It just depends when Reinsdorf is ready to bite the bullet on this horrible hire. Bring back Ozzie.

I'm guessing 35 wins....40 if the team over performs. With a roster of below average talent and the worst manager in MLB, this is realistic expectations.

A stripper pole in every section and 1000 entertainers working them. Make it the largest gentlemens club in the country and every game will be sold out.
