You can still critique your favorite team and still be a loyal fan. Nothing more hilarious than people trying to control/gatekeep fandom.

Who cares who predicted it? Nobody on this board gets paid for predicting something right, when you leave this site nobody cares what predictions were made. The team is fun right now and all you are trying to do is tell everyone not to enjoy it for reasons that might happen if something else happens

Hey honey, remember that special night I proposed to you a few minutes after Jordan Hicks s%*# himself in front of the first Sox sellout all season?

Man, they should be doing the black alternate city connect. These red ones are lame and the bulls don’t deserve the rub

f*** the Cubs and their entitled fanbase. BURY THEM!

White Sox vs. LHP: .774 OPS (4th in MLB) .438 SLG (2nd) .335 OBP (5th) 21 HR (2nd)

grab some bench Piss Crack Asswipe

Best shortstop in Chicago

You want to know what Chase is dreaming about, what we’re all dreaming about? A White Sox sweep and Antonacci finding a reason and a way to get into it with PCA.

Please, please, please: Good Burke tonight, good Burke tonight, Great Burke tonight!

I owe Getz nothing! I have gone from despising him to hating him, it's an improvement. He's still got a lot of work to do with the Man in the high castle looking over him.

@SoCalChiSox willed this into existence.

Miggs!!!!

Where’d joejoe go

Good inning. Momentum shifted a little

Ready for a big Mune shot.

They still have time. Comeback incoming.

lets go white sox

They're going to do an interview every damn inning, aren't they? Why do they think we don't want to watch the game?

Sad to know how excited whitesox2023 when his buddy pca gets on base. Makes you question a lot of things about life!

just letting this out there before the game starts: f*** the cubs

I can’t believe my bull jizz joke didn’t land. All it gets is one lousy Hawk face!? I don’t even know what that means! I demand a ron apology thread on my behalf.

You are going to be in for a wild ride reading joejoe posts as a soft-hearted guy

Looking at tickets for next weeks games in Seattle. If we have anybody here that wants to meetup PM me. I'm probably going Wednesday, the first two days are silly bobblehead days Wednesday has better prices.

The black ones are some of the best jersey's in pro sports. I like the red, I LOVE the black.

Quero might as well be wearing a Knights jersey lol

Man that top 5 or 6 is going to look so good once Teel is back.

I’ll be there tonight. Can’t freaking wait. I hope for a really good ballgame. Also I wanna see some fire and drama. Maybe some benches clearing or something. Just nobody get hurt lol. But moreso just a great game and a Sox win. Walkoff homer would be friggin awesome

Condolences.

You can credit Mike Shirley for this. He's been in charge from 2020 onwards. He's very good. If you want to get into some of the rumors/dirt, Jacob Gonzalez was supposedly dictated by Haber, and Hagen Smith was a Getz selection. Believe what you will though.

Mike Shirley deserves majority of the credit for the strong drafts since taking over. His draft classes are 2020-present. Nick Hostetler was the SD before that, and if you ask me he was a disaster.

This poor man is suffering from one of the worst cases of Southsider Derangement Syndrome I have ever seen.

Crooked SS2K5 would never release the votes because he would be EMBARRASSED! Total loser!

Sign with the Yankees and get called Mr. May?

Roch's floor is above their ceiling. Roch has performed at a higher level than Emerson and with unquestionable success against actual quality pitching Take Roch and don't look back. If they miss on Roch oh well if they miss on Emerson it is major f*** up

Definitely. Everything (not just this board) has gotten so polarized it leaves little room for common sense.

Dis you? https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7278971/2026/05/14/white-sox-fan-fall-hospital-royals/?source=athletic_pulsenewsletter&campaign=18030787&userId=6062851

#ReleaseTheVotes

I think I said 82 wins in the bold predictions thread, and 77-78 elsewhere.

Dang, I should have looked this up before posting the thread.

Getz's first batch of trades all failed, miserably. Like, in the way that Grichuk and Romo have had "games", nobody from that first off-season had a game. Every single position player sat at a .452 OPS into June. Every pitcher not named Crochet looked like they were facing hungry lions and counted their fingers after every pitch. The trades made sense. Bummer for Soroka and ... guys ... seemed like a fair gamble. Santos for Berroa, a draft pick and some dude looked innocuous. Fedde rounded into shape. Flexen could keep the game within single digits. It's just nice to see some guys pick it up and develop, like Vargas. It's a fun team.

Don't give me that bullshit*t Ray Ray.

Has anybody on this forum been more vindicated than @WestEddy ? He should be showing receipts and serving up crow to everybody.

It's a precarious position. Making the playoffs no matter what your record ,is a big deal. It generates revenue and for JR extra revenue is the only way he'll spend money. A good rest of the season will boost attendance and perhaps sponsors . You can't just ignore the business of baseball. Playoffs means being on national TV and more exposure for products and the White Sox as a global product. If you want the Sox to grow as a franchise and have more money to spend then you should want to make the playoff. You can't win a World Series without being in the playoffs. In the past the Sox have had circumstances with good records that fell just short of the playoffs. It would be nice for a change for circumstances that allow the team to be in the hunt to be a champion. It's not like these opportunities come along very often. What that means for the TDL is more complicated. Getz has not shown any inclination to trade top prospects. Thats depth. You need depth. But if they are in a strong position at the TDL do you really want to trade away the guys who have brought some stability to your pen like Dominguez or Hudson ? Your position in the upcoming draft is very strong. You might say ,just this once, that you play the hand you were dealt. Stay the course and see where it goes. No trades to just try to get marginally better that may hurt the course you have already set. There's is a trade you can make if you can find a taker for an advanced CF prospect in a prospect for prospect trade. That's the good thing about stockpiling SS prospects .In order to get a primary position prospect you usually have to give one up. I honestly don't know who's out there that fits as a CF for the near the future but I'd like BMonty to be in RF asap but Im guessing he may see quite a bit of time in CF once he's up. Who knows ,with Teel coming back and a strong whiff of Braden Montgomery that the Sox might smell a whole lot better and be approaching 90 wins at the end of the season.

Why are you still responding to me? This is a rhetorical question btw since you need everything spelled out. Do not continue to communicate with me. Thank you
