Hicks and Newcomb have definitely been key bullpen cogs recently...along with Taylor and Hudson, ofc.

We did the same with Sale Crochet Cease Rodon Giolito Lopez...very little to still show for all those pitching departures except for the Crochet trade.

The last 2-3 seasons GRF has played slightly offense negative...which includes all hitters, Sox and opponents. Rated 98-99 with 100 neutral Seattle by comparison at 91-92 and the worst park for offense in the majors. And Vaughn has done much better with Milwaukee than the Sox btw.

I hope not… though, I also don’t think we really need much… just deal from strengths to help improve the rotation. So maybe you’re right.

Agreed, but I think they want him gone. Teel should finally be healthy and they have another year of control on Bart. The Sox won’t be spending much money after the Castillo acquisition so I would put my money on Getz trading Quero for what he needs. This trade deadline was quite literally half of our 2027 offseason.

It doesn't make much sense to sell low.

Wow! Glad he is in the NL. Let the Cubs worry about him and Walker.

They need a bit more balance but isn't it great seeing a team that was successfully built around the home run. Hahn talked ad nauseam about this but when it came time to draft hitters, he drafted high average contact hitters who hit a lot of ground balls. Leave it to the guy with 3 career home runs to know how create a team whose identity is left handed slug. I think Getz really understood the failings of the last regime in this department. You see it developmentally with the players.

Take a look at the Sox current 40 FV prospects. I guarantee you wouldn’t miss quite a few of those guys.

I watched the video montage of Friday's game and Jason was sounding very over the top on the Detroit highlights and I found myself being quite annoyed by him. 😎

That was a fun game. Just enough two out rbis to pull it out. Valencia vs Hudson in the 9th scared me more than just a little but kudos to Hudson. He aced him. Sweep em tomorrow and f*** the Cubs.

He talks a lot about taxes If people haven't given this a watch, this is awesome. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/824239/video/japanese-highlights-white-sox-tigers-x9841

Thank you for pointing this out. I've had personal experience with people in my life who have been addicted to drugs like Benzo. It does monstrous things to people.

Federal Railway Funds Open Up Justin Ishbia Megadevelopment13 hours ago · The plan centers on a medical innovation hub anchored by Northwestern Medicine, where Ishbia serves on the board... (One of the Six Flags most violent and famous coasters has recently been taken off line for weeks now after a serious injury, pretty sure to the neck.)

There really aren't any after Skubal and King. Canning might actually be the third best FA pitcher, and not even Skubal has looked like a $350-400 million starter as of yet.

That's how you frame a ball

Four factoids today: August 16, 1927 - The Yankees “Babe” Ruth hit the first rooftop home run in Comiskey Park history when he blasted a shot off Tommy Thomas. The ball was estimated to have gone 474 feet. The Yankees won 8-1. Ruth’s home run came in the fifth inning and was a solo shot. Former White Sox manager Clarence “Pants” Rowland was the first base umpire in this game. August 16, 2011 - In an 8-7, 14 inning win over the Indians at U.S. Cellular Field, the White Sox hit five triples. That was the most in a single game since September 17, 1920 when they got six against the Yankees. Alejandro DeAza had two and Alexei Ramirez, Tyler Flowers and Alex Rios got the other three The Sox won the game on a Juan Pierre single in the last of the 14th inning. August 16, 2017 – Sox outfielder Leury Garcia homered on the first pitch of the game at Dodger Stadium off Yu Darvish. It marked the second straight game; the Sox leadoff man homered on the game’s first delivery. The night before shortstop Tim Anderson did it off Alex Wood. It was the first time this ever happened in franchise history. August 16, 2020 – On this day the White Sox tied the Major League record by hitting four consecutive home runs. It came in the fifth inning at home against the Cardinals and pitcher Roel Ramirez. The four home runs were hit by Yoan Moncada, Yasmani Grandal, Jose Abreu and Eloy Jimenez. It was the second time in franchise history the White Sox had hit four straight homers. This feat last took place on August 14, 2008, against the Royals, when Jim Thome, Paul Konerko, Alexei Ramirez and Juan Uribe did the honors. The Sox would win the game 7-2. It marked the 10th time a team had hit four straight home runs in a game. It was also the first time in MLB history that three Cuban-born players (in this case Moncada, Grandal and Abreu) went back-to-back-to-back, or that four Latin-born players had homered consecutively.

Especially with a 7+ career ERA against Cincy before that start.

Colson's defense has been really good the last week or so other than weak ass throw that Mune bailed him out on.

You’re pretty wordy for an old man that gets his jollies off by talking s%*# on a message board which you would never do in real life face-to-face to me or anyone else. Once again, if you post a thread on a public message board, anyone can respond. Or do you only want replies that agree with you to help feed your frail ego? What don’t you get, Ron Willie from Cali? Cuz that’s all we know about you, Mr. Anonymous…

Quantity is a quality of its own and one the Sox system doesn't have. 4 prospects at a 40 FV will probably produce one at 50, so a solid starter, and then the other three guys are probably just backups or never make MLB. Still a useful flip for the seller. I don't really see anybody that Sox traded becoming a solid starter, maybe Boston Smith but he's a man without a MLB position and if he's not a catcher he's nothing. s%*# that Josh Hartle guy pitched 4.1 scoreless today for Nats and has a 6/1 walk to K ratio to start his MLB career. We'd be livid if we traded that guy from our system right now.
