And that's just our GM.
Don't forget about our owner. He was reminiscing about David Eckstein when he spoke during the Getz press conference. He loves shitty players like that.

The 2021 White Sox won 93 games with Robert missing 94 games, Eloy missing 107, and TA missing 39.
Bob Nightingale said that TLR deserved a plaque for managing that team to 93 wins. He may not be wrong.

He took a team that was probably a 75 win team talent wise last year and led them to a 100 loss season. This year it's a 60 win team and he's leading them towards a 40 win season. At this point it's pretty clear that he's a big reason for why this team sucks so historically bad.
Nothing about this roster is a 60 win team. That's such a massive stretch. The talent is horrendous. Grifol isn't costing them 20 wins, lol.

I actually worked out drunk AF last night. It was wild, never really tried it funnily enough. I was so sloppy on my dumb bell flies looked like a total noob I'm sure. It was fun tho once i got going, was jamming to my music and ripping off zercher squats at the end.
Sounds like a terrible idea

Jose Abreu is 4-for-62 with one RBI. Must be frustrating for Jose. U think if this keeps up he'll hang 'em up? Of course he's always started slowly but yikes 4-for-62 is pretty Darin Erstad-ish. (forgive me for starting a new thread but with the Sox 3-21 I think you can forgive me. Not like there's much to discuss).
He lied about his age and/or stopped taking steroids

I have watched him a lot since he was drafted. Just a good baseball player. Balanced swing from both sides. Probably better with a little more juice as a lefty. Controls the zone pretty well. Above average speed, but not a burner like Ellis. Can put a charge into the ball for a skinnier guy. His second double tonight was crushed. Good defender in both the infield and the outfield. Has played 7 positions as a pro. OK at short and centerfield. Better at 2b, 3b, and the corners. Was the MVP of the mid-major Colonial Athletic league where he played 2b. His Dad was a prominent player for Clemson back in the day.
So you're saying we found Ben Zobrist 2.0?

Angels fans must be furious. Talk about a poorly run organization.

Maybe Hawk can come back in a managing role.
I miss him. We all miss him. Ratings would increase.
Hawk is simply the best. I have no doubt he could still call a game.

Since it seems to be leaning this way (about his son) - what should we expect out of him as an owner?
Look at the Bulls. The VP/GM duo is an absolute disaster. Any normal organization would have fired them by now, but they still have a job. It's basically the same old Reinsdorf BS.

Juvenile name calling is best left to little bully boys on the school sand lot. If you are talking about the cubs though, go ahead.

He's also 57 years old.
Yeah, he definitely lied about his age.

Im not saying these are great examples, but they immediately come to mind :
Dead - Jermaine Dye. Which was usually followed with references to the Altered Beast video game intro “Rise from your grave.”
Choke Crede
Jizz Can - Luis Vizcaino
Botch - Billy Koch
Jermaine Dead is what I was thinking of. Classic.

I've been seeing ILoy lately and it cracks me up. One of the better derogatory/insulting/spiteful Sox nicknames. What are other good ones? One I remember reading here is Princess Dye. Hasn't aged quite as well, but I still chuckle. Tony "SS2K5" LaRussa was a good one too.

If you could package Robert, a starting pitcher, and a bullpen arm to a contender in July, it could potentially bring a great haul. You always have to see what teams are willing to give up.
Robert would require an unprecedented return, assuming his injury didn't significantly diminish his value.

Maybe they should take "hatred" out of their simulations.
Simulations hate the White Sox more than Keith Law does. It's disgusting.

Getz and the Sox make me sad. But Walton Goggins is always worth the watch. He’s great in Fallout.
Walton Goggins in Justified is an all time performance. Dude is incredible. He is hands down the best at playing a preacher on TV.

I'm sorry why can they only draft 10th?
New rules. They're a "big market team", so they can't draft that high in two consecutive years. Only applies to big market teams. Something along those lines.

Outscored 27 to 5 in the series. Competitive team, am I right Getz?
And at this point, it feels like Benintendi WANTS to be DFA, so he can get paid and go sit at home. He certainly doesn't look like a guy who wants to turn a franchise around, for sure. 367 OPS, GMAFB, organization is getting EVERYTHING it deserves, with the clown show in charge.
Vaughn with a robust 489 OPS.
An absolute can't miss prospect with the bat.
