  1. Keller only had to throw 10 pitches the first inning for KC so it looks like we have an ineffective hitting coach.
  2. Why are you guys so anxious for the game to start? It's not like they have any chance to win the World Series or anything.
  3. Just because you pay a guy a lot of money does not mean that he's going to play any better. Why not wait until he's actually played some before making predictions as to is prowess?
  4. You mean criminals who are indicted on 16 felony counts are allowed to run free while those who are indicted on one count go to prison.
  5. The Sox won 62 games last year and given the failure to do anything to improve the team in free agency despite the bumper crop of quality free agents, 62 wins are the best case scenario. I voted >50 wins due to the fact that the rest of the division has improved while all we did was lavish money on a player who was already under team control for the next few years anyway.
  6. No better than last year and perhaps even worse.
  7. If other people started game threads, I would not. So why don't you start some game threads?
  8. What this shows is that there are two standards of justice, one for the rich and the celebrity and one for the rest of us.
  9. Jimenez has hit .243 this Spring Training and yet he is being paid big money. If that is not a waste of money, I don't know what is.
  10. Interesting how the team does well, yet hardly anyone posts about it. That shows how a failure to sign quality free agents has led to little fan enthusiasm for the upcoming season.
  11. And yet Jimenez, who has thus far been a total waste of money that could have been spent on quality free agents, has escaped criticism.
  12. The Sox have the chance to finish the Spring Training season in style and start the Regular Season with some real momentum despite Hahn's failing to use any of the money that was offered Machado to improve the team.
  13. Nice win despite the fact that Hahn failed to do anything to improve the pitching while lavishing all kinds of money on a mediocrity who was going to be with the team for at least a few years more anyways.
  14. What relevance is Sale to the White Sox now?
  15. Now its 3 straight4 pitch walks. Great job scouting, drafting and training pitchers, Hahn.
  16. 2 Angels in a row drew 4 pitch walks. I must say that Hahn has clearly done a great job of scouting and player development.
  17. Coming off a stunning victory, the Sox have the chance to start a winning streak and carry momentum into the regular season.
  18. The NBA has recently embraced the minor league farm team concept. If the Bulls are to compete, they need to embrace the concept at least as much as other teams.
  19. The problem is not so much that he's extended if he actually is, but the kind of big money that's being talked about. That money could be better put to use on some of the quality of free agents who are still available. Perhaps Dallas Keuchel is not the best option, but there are others who could really help this team particularly in pitching that could bring more people to the ballpark and raise money for next season, not too mention give the fans hope that a team turnaround really is in the offing. Perhaps Eloy really is the hot bat that you think he is, but he should first demonstrate it at the major league level before there's any talk of big money headed his way.
  20. Missed the game due to real life matters but judging from the stats, it looks like a solid victory for the whole team. If Abreu, Anderson, and Moncada can continue hitting .300+ into the regular season, then the Sox really do have hope for a better record than last year. This is especially true if Novoa's performance this game is a harbinger of things to come and he turns out to be the Esteban Loaiza of 2019.
  21. If this guy, who started out hitting .154, really is signed up for a long term deal, then that means that to use a phrase that you hardly ever hear anymore, the Sox have truly jumped the shark.
  22. Great job of pitching this game, especially from Giolito. No wonder we don't need Dallas Keuchel.
  23. I'm 54 years old, not exactly an old man.
  24. The Sox now have the worst record in Spring Training owing to Hahn's failure to even consider free agent acquisitions outside of a half-hearted pursuit of Machado. If the team is to turn things around and then bring that momentum into the regular season, it needs to start now.
  25. You don't hear much about the Windy City Bulls in the media, but the Chicago Bulls' NBA G League affiliate have clinched a playoff spot with a winning record. If Bulls management does not screw things up, it looks like some good talent may be coming to the Bulls the next season or two. https://windycity.gleague.nba.com/ What do you guys think?
