Is that a title that allows us to request to interview current SD’s by framing it as a promotion?

assistant general manager Josh Barfield is a candidate for Astros ... Oct 20, 2026 — White Sox general manager Chris Getz said the team intends to make a hire under the title “director of amateur acquisitions.”

I like his podcast but I'm a fan from Boers and Bernstein days so definitely biased. Dan's podcast is better than anything on 670 or 1000 currently and I used to be an every day sports radio guy. Has always been solid reporting. Don't agree with all of his opinions but he doesn't report bullshit.

Victoria's Secret Angels fighting over Tom Brady... Team Joan or Team Candice?

Supposedly. "Director of Amateur Acquisitions".

Brandon Woodruff was at 89-93 on Monday night in the 9th...fwiw

I think it was @Y2Jimmy0 who mentioned in the futuresox podcast a decision on the new scouting director is expected this week.

Sox in the Basement podcast in general is one of the better White Sox podcasts out there. They have good stuff.

This was really interesting, and being a suburbanite with a newly expanded passenger rail line, something our town is trying really hard to take advantage of. They are marketing the cheap real estate, hour commute to downtown, and 1% property tax max really hard to recruit.

I watched the interview yesterday and found it very interesting. I already knew the power rail roads had but Sen. Cunningham shared his firsthand experiences. He said jokingly, "You can fight city hall, but you can't fight the rail roads." He also made a very interesting point how Covid started the work from home movement and how it has impacted downtown and taxes. I would recommend watching the video, good stuff.

It's because everyone with sense moved out of Milwaukee years ago...

If anyone ever has doubts that Ron trolls, bookmark this thread.

Relievers are so volatile that even a bad season doesn't mean next season they won't be back on track. It has to be the hardest thing to evaluate looking forward on an annual basis.

It will be interesting. The early chatter was that we were looking at repurposing the position into something with slightly different focus and responsibilities from what it had historically been. Maybe 3/4 of the old job and a 1/4 of a new one. That might also change the pool of people.

What no one talks about is how much of an inflationary pressure that no immigration is becoming. Remember all of those jobs that no one wanted to do? The people who actually wanted to do them are now being rounded up and sent away.

Not geeks but a lot of drinking with that crew. Beef loaf, Chorizy, etc.

True. KenWo is a multi-sport threat. He also has a vast knowledge of wrestling.

I don’t care about Bernstein. I only need to evaluate the truthfulness of his commentary. He is reporting things he heard from other people. Whether or not he can be trusted to report facts or not I can’t weigh in on

That's an interesting question. My guess is we may have led the nation in undocumented workers, some who may have never set foot in another country. Most are just coworkers, friends, neighbors,

What is 108?

Why is a group of fans that sit in seats blocked by the foul pole celebrated? Bunch of geeks.

These seem mean spirited. 108 talking about content stealing seems rather rich. They are annoying as can be.
