I don’t know about anyone else, but feels like a W to me. Good job, boys.

Well Rexy is Stone Pony and Getz’s favorite color.

I’m okay with hiring Tommy Pham to come in this clubhouse and start slapping some people in the face. Might even be the best hitter on the team while he’s at it.

He did. At the slider two feet off the plate.

10-152 calling it now.

I generally ignore his media quotes because there are much bigger issues/concerns with him, but what/who the hell is he talking about here? The second half of that quote is hurting my brain.

I thought maybe this year I’d be able to conquer my PTSD and stop being terrified every time I see a White Sox player running at medium speed. But just like this pathetic organization, it’s not going anywhere.

They were both strains of the hip flexor, but in 2021 it completely ripped off the bone and he was on the ground in excruciating pain. This isn’t good, but it’s definitely not as severe of a strain. Not sure what that means in terms of recovering time and whatnot though.

Eloy needs to hit three bombs today to make up for his pathetic performance yesterday.

I’m in.

I’m not sure that comparison really makes sense. It also doesn’t take away from Caulfield’s point that Katz can take credit for essentially reinventing Rodon, turning his career around, and making him not only a successful MLB SP for the first time in his career, but an elite one at that. But I am honestly also not sure how good Katz is of a pitching coach 🙂 I had high hopes for him after with some early success in his tenure, but then outside of Cease in ‘22 and Santos in ‘23, it’s kind of been a disaster the last two years.

Let’s all just chill about six at bats, please. Maybe the guy never pans out, but this does not prove anything.

How strong is the offer?

You are the man!!

Lol. That’s supposed to be Ice Cube from Friday forcefully asking, “what he say?” But apparently I’m not savvy enough to embed the clip.

What are the rumors?

I hate this thread. Great job, all.

This one makes me sad.

I also thought Jose Rodriguez was being traded to the Blue Jays when I first saw the thread title. Then I couldn’t get rid of the full page ad that popped up while opening the thread and I experienced a few seconds of minor anxiety.

Seriously though.

Same. Although I am also good with cashing in on one good year of relief, but not completely sold on the return beyond turning one thing into three (plus bonus pool). Overall, these trades gave me a little pep in my step, and I’ll admit I am a little excited to see what a new front office can do, even if it’s not the one we wanted.

I think it was Rollins, along with Avila and Frazier. All three were veterans who were new to the team, and apparently did not enjoy the idea of having a child in the clubhouse all day, everyday. What a weird year. All of that to finish in 4th place, again.

I’m surprised so many people are upset by this trade. My expectations for Mena have never been great, so I have no issue turning him into an OF who appears can be a productive all around player for the next six years, despite the low ceiling.

What a play by Getz leaking this info to put the pressure on Pillar’s camp.
