As a responsibility of making the team, Murphy was tasked with telling Alberto he was being put on waivers.

But that was Getz's fault because the White Sox didn't develop their players to like each other, and besides, the asst. Development guy actually makes all the decisions. Where's the "why isn't anything ever the GM's fault" guy?

Do you seriously think Schultz should make the opening day roster, and that the White Sox are only holding him back for nefarious reasons?

Good thing we didn't sign Walker Buehler, then.

In his first 7 pro games of 2024, Thorpe threw 6 of 7 games with game scores of 57, 69, 63, 66, 58, 69. He then fell off the table for two horrible starts. He was subsequently put on the IL. If that guy comes back, he will be a force.

I keep reading the headline as "Sorry for the outrage"

Happy Birthday to Harold Baines, born in 1959, and an unhappy Birthday to Jon Jay, born in 1985. Jay played only 47 games for the 2019 White Sox, signed primarily due to his childhood friendship with Manny Machado. It was hoped that Jay and Machado's brother-in-law, Yonder Alonso would help Machado make the decision to accept the White Sox offer. Neither lobbied Machado. Jay even said Machado should take the best deal.

Yeah. Nobody's talking about hearing that "pop" all the way from the dugout.

I'm spending this week having to type in the full name of every single website and password from having cleared my cache so many times on every computer and phone I could put my hands on. The work you guys do is truly appreciated. The fact that so many are expressing notions of addiction should tell you how much you're all relied on. Thank you very much.

"Under 26 talent" listicles are a ridiculous measure. Getz is doing a good job hiring competent people. "Fine" is fine. Relax.

I believe he's already done something miraculous. Unless Ishbia wants his own miracle. LOL. Getz is fine. Doesn't seem to have a huge ego, putting smart people in place. By the time Ish takes over, they might just kick him up to President of BO, and promote one of his smarter minions to GM, if JR/fam doesn't do it first.

By the time we finally stop rooting for everyone to be fired and a new rebuild initiated, those cities won't even exist anymore.

I won't be waiting at all. This rebuild suits me just fine. I'm not the one hankering for everyone to be fired so we can throw away all the advancements they've made in the last 2 years and start all over again from scratch.

But if a White Sox player gets injured stepping out of the shower, it's because Jerry Reinsdorf directed Chris Getz to personally NOT teach players the fundamentals of how to step out of the shower.

I can't wait until they start the next rebuild, so I can seethe and call for all the replacements to be fired, and for an even new rebuild to commense.

Hell, the SoxTalk site just went down. Nobody's safe.

I don't know if you guys want people to stay off until you finish your checks. Pages are loading slow. I get a "can't load page" for a second or so before it actually loads.

Still condescending. "Sorry for your loss...but"?!? No, the deaths don't give "credibility" to the vaccines. Extensive testing on mRNA does give it credibility. That's great that you can type sentences. The government does have the right to mandate vaccines in an emergency. This was established in Jacobsen vs. Massachusetts and has been upheld numerous times. Caulfield also cited an example. In normal times, about 8400 people die each day in the US. At its height, 8100 people were dying daily of COVID. That's not "something bad happening". That was the normal daily death toll practically doubling due to a pandemic that was spreading across the world in a matter of weeks. Do you see how you minimizing deaths just to make some ill-conceived point can be considered condescending?
