Richie Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) 15 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Yeah, seemed pretty dumb. Almost seems like Renteria is in on the tank. Yeah, and I don't even care about losing at this point in the rebuild/development. It's just discouraging when your manager stinks and you have to watch him constantly blunder. Then, watching your young players botch the fundamentals of the game (i.e. our horrific defense) which also goes back to managing/coaching. Rebuilding isn't supposed to be fun, but it doesn't have to be everything we're experiencing either. I mean, whatever... hopefully in a couple of years, games like these will be apart of the days we look back and laugh at. This stuff doesn't ruin my day. Just annoys me a bit.

It's all a process of cutting down the flaws and trying to put the parts together at the same time. His career is 380 AB's old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted June 2, 2018 Author Share Posted June 2, 2018 I guess we got a bit too cocky and greedy expecting another win after yesterday. Game ovah and we lose 5-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 This team is unwatchable. In general my thoughts mirror Richie's. It's rough but try and look forward to better times ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I was wondering living out of state ... is there any buzz in Chicago at all about the White Sox? Does the city totally ignore the team. Is it like a minor league team where TV and the websites and news outlets barely cover the team at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you asked somebody who is not one of us fanatics if they wanted to go to a game that night what would they say? And what about jerseys and hats? Do you see many/ Finally have we lost the Little Leaguers? Are they all Cub fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Don't go to a sporting goods store. Probably 95 pct of their baseball apparel is Cubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were getting good buzz after the first 5 games or so. Ever since Soria choked the first home game, it's been a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are pretty much zero Sox fans under 20. The Sox have lost an entire generation of fans and I don't think they're getting them back. It is why I am concerned for the future of the Franchise in Chicago when JR kicks the bucket. It is the elephant in the room nobody wants to talk about. JR/KW blew a golden opportunity in 2009-10 offseason to rebuild then, and again in 2010-11. They should have done it then. The fact that it took the majority of the next decade for them to do it was inexcusable, IMO, and due to that there might as well be only one baseball team in town. The fact of the matter is for some reason, the Cubs "print money" and the Sox don't. I don't think there is much that can fix that.

EvilJester99 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Now imagine if this rebuild falls flat.. the Sox will be a laughing stock (not that they aren’t already). Signs are positive it may work out.. but ya never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazox Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Now here’s a thing , over in the U.K. the Sox logo is very recogniseable , along with NYY they are the only caps I’ve ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
