knightni Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 QUOTE (WBWSF @ Apr 18, 2018 -> 09:53 AM) Forbes Magazine said that the White Sox will have $260 in yearly revenue in 2018. The Sun Times said the White Sox team payroll (which is 28th in MLB) for 2018 will be $60 million dollars. JR and his investors are laughing all the way to the bank with this dismal team. Good for them. I wish that my investments were as successful. Imagine the profits if fans actually showed up on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk to me in 2021 when we're selling 32,000 tickets per game and the payroll's up past $175 million. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Apr 17, 2018 -> 11:05 PM) Not to be confused with the incessant whining by an apparently uninformed, yet overzealous mod, about anyone, ANYONE, who dares to call into question the horrific record of the owner. News Flash: mods and admins are allowed to have opinions different than yours, and you don't have to get hurt feelings and hold grudges because of it.

chitownsportsfan Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Eloy back in action, had a oppo field double yesterday in extended spring training. I'd guess he joins Birmingham next week. https://twitter.com/longenhagen/status/986300093904011264 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I found this video of Cano pretty interesting as it looks so similar to Yoan's single up the middle today: https://twitter.com/BallparkVids/status/986802867603468289 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBWSF Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I realize at his age that this is the final stage of Steve Stones broadcasting career. I'm still surprised as to how he has become a total houseman for the White Sox organization and this rebuild/tanking. His constant comments about James Shields have become really tough to listen to. Repeating over and over as to how Shields is adding so much to the team borders on insanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dane Dunning credited Shields with adjusying the grip on his curve ball. You can be of value other places besides on the field. He will be gone soon enough.

I trust you it's happening, but the games I've listened to he hasn't been that bad a houseman. Home Game One is the one I can't get out of my mind when Hawk about started crying in joy at how great a team the Sox have this year. Then they blew the game of course, him putting the ultimate hex on the 2018 squad (kidding). I can't imagine Stoney praising Shields that much but if he is, that's not good. Although Big James may be helping in the leadership department even though he personally sucks. That is possible. James may be trying to help some of these guys who are allegedly pitchers.

Lip Man 1 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Gonzales to DL, Beck called up. Basically just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic because Beck is really bad as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazox Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 ESPN are showing the game , 10:10 over here , its repeated at midday tomorrow so I'll probably blank the result and watch "live" tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I wondered about the start time as well. Maybe it's an experiment. Instead of playing these cold April games at 1 pm, maybe 4 pm more people will show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Just wondering has anybody heard any news on Burdi? he should be throwing by now shouldn't he? I think it's been a year of so since the surgery. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
