  1. Past hour

    The 2025 version of Colson would be pretty good. I don't want to sell low on a 30+ home run hitting SS without trying some adjustments first.
  3. He should not be in the OD rotation IMO. Either he goes to the pen or should be traded. At a $5M salary, he’s still potentially rostering as a swingman.
  4. I tend to agree, Harkness (although I've been a Cards fan all my life until this season), but I will be catching the Rays vs. Guardians games when I can, on the theory that "whatever happens now to the Guardians is probably what would've happened to the Sox." Is that theory reasonable, or misguided?
  5. They led the Al in runs and going into the post season walked a lot is what he will rely on. I guess I am just jaded by the historical ineptness that befelled them by a good but not elite Cleveland staff.
  6. We are so deep at infield/SS in the minors I think you trade Colston while he has any value left.

  8. I see Kay mentioned here a lot... Kay is not ogod. He will give you a quality start every now and then, but overall, he is at best a 5th starter. Hovers around 5.00 Era every season.

    I want Sam leading off every game even against LHP. Sam will find a way to impact a game. Vargas is on the verge of super star and Meidroth is already super good. Braden either figures out how to hit LHP or he needs to be platooned. Teel as the main catcher will increase the production from the catcher position. Mune is going to walk, strike out and homer. Colson will most likely be the starting SS out of ST. I think he will be on a short leash if he bats like he did the last 2 months of this season. Peters is another one that you don't know what you are going to get with the bat. Doyle as the 4th outfielder is pretty good with his lock down glove. Depending on his playing time I would like to see his power numbers go up. DH --- Does Grich come back? Benny has 1 year left and had decent production for his ab total but I wonder if he can do it again. UT - Yet to be determined
  10. Well now I can stop watching baseball until next year. Never could give a s%*# about who wins what in baseball post season outside of the sox.
  11. Today

  12. The new CBA will probably force jR to spend some money. A couple of good starters would be nice.
  13. Completely agree...............Too bad we had 20! K's
  14. I am on board the Fedde train, bring him back.
  15. I am curious what Getz says at the presser, if he will even address coaches.
  16. I agree in a general sense every time this comes up, but we can’t compare the pressures and temptations and opportunities of a professional athlete to the mundane lives we lead comparatively. It’s much tougher to maintain a marital and moral standard with exponentially more temptation and opportunities. They’re no better or worse than we were created. Just lead different lives
  17. Will wants openers yesterday, openers now and openers forever!
  18. David Robertson was paid like a quality elite closer. Credit for Shark offer, which would have been horrendous?...not to mention the acquisition cost for just one year. Ummm...no. They let a long line of pitchers leave the organization without replacing them. The one they QO'd (not Rodon) led to Kimbrel/AJ Pollock/Benintendi. Not to mention Keuchel (very last pitcher from that FA tier) and Mr. Steak & Potatoes by way of St.Louis/TLR and Texas...capped at three year deals that went bust.
  19. The Sox probably guessed right how to get the most out of this lineup. It’s readily apparent. There’s a cost to everything
  20. I wonder if they thought the same way for the pathetic second half of Kolson.
  21. That is the last thing I want, this thread is my fav.
  22. A limited point I think. Yes, they cratered during the Cleveland series. But it’s only 1 series. They took it to 5 games without starting pitchers. They’re young, gonna make changes and improve the talent. The “ approach” can be tweaked with better talent.
  23. They extended Sale and Buehrle. Quintana. They all say hello back. So do David Robertson. Let us know what they offered Samardzija. Should Reinsdorf offer Jon Cannon 15/999999999999999 just to prove he wants to win? This is a stupid narrative. All owners "allow" their GMs to offer free agents deals.
  24. Sports Media WatchAfter Romo, the chemistry question follows NantzNow onto his third-different partner in a decade, does Jim Nantz play a role in the chemistry issues afflicting the CBS NFL broadcast booth?
  25. I think the final paragraph of the article sums up the season perfectly, for this squad to makes the ALDS was a massive achievement, but to then lose it after going 2 games up in a 5 game series and to strike out like they did in the last 3 games exposed the shortcoming in the offense, and the pitching was on the brink all season and just finally fell apart in the final 3 games, particularly the 2 games at home. Overall, there are many positives from this season but unless the obvious flaws in the squad are adressed then hoping for a repeat next season (if it happens) may lead to disappointment.
  26. Takeaways from the final White Sox game of 2026 - Sox Mac...Toward the end of what turned out to be the White Sox’s final sustained scoring threat of the 2026 season in Game 5 Saturday night, Miguel Vargas came to the plate with runners on first and second and
