  1. Then pick up the last option year and trade him next spring training.
  2. They should have never traded for Brenton Doyle, because I hate two-run singles.
  3. Doyle's played a fine CF. This wasn't a World Series Championship team heading into the TDL. There wasn't a series of trades that was going to make this an awesome, ass-kicking team heading into the playoffs that didn't deplete their minor league system. Seriously, people are pretending that Boston Smith, Mason Adams and some guy who's on a hot streak in the DSL gets us a HOF starter, another top starter, a SS better than Colson, 2 catchers, and f*** it, 5 bullpen arms. Like, you people can make up BS, why can't I?
  4. JFC, they took a gamble on having a great defensive CF over an occasional masher against LHPs. Grichuk mashes LHPs. I'd guess they think they think they can make Doyle a better hitter then they can make Adell a better CF in the next 6 weeks.
  5. I think Thorpe will help more than Adams, and Doyle will help more than Pereira. Adams doesn't play a good CF.
  6. Right. Because I'm not an idiot. I'd be wondering what's going on. Thanks for bringing me back to the reality of normal person sports fannage.
  7. I didn't say "he lost the plot". Fake news.
  8. I guess they want to DFA Antonacci for Adell. Good luck with that.
  9. And you agree with. LOL. I'm not raging at anything. It would have been insane to trade for Adell. Weird that you guys aren't fawning over Adell's equivalent from Urquidy or Castillo. I don't believe the Sox had the prospect capital to compete for a true "go for it" TDL. Their top 6 prospects would be gone for rentals, who weren't even difference makers. Seriously, you going to start Kevin Gausman in game one? I'd rather s%*# in my fist and squeeze it.
  10. Believes what? If Getz traded for a shitty RF who might go on a run I'd be irate? People are screaming for stupid BS. "Why didn't the White Sox trade for an upgrade at 3B?!?!?" That would be stupid.
  11. No, you wouldn't have rather have Adams, because he would have pitched his first game, threw 4 mediocre innings, then you would have whined about how he sucks. And the guys we traded wouldn't have even stoked a rumor on the level of "WE COULD HAVE HAD KEASCHALL!!!!" You're parlaying one interesting bat and a #5 starter into fucking Verlander in his prime. That wasn't out there. Seriously, show anything that scrapes the bottom of the fake news "KEASCHALL!!!" BS. Nothing was out there.
  12. It's funny when people who assured us this was going to be a 100-loss team are now bitching about how high in the 80s this team will reach. LOL.
  13. Getz chose. You're looking back on a three week sample (which you scoff at when we do it for Sox players doing well) and making a judgment. That's ridiculous. Good for them. Good for Adell. Adell isn't a CF.
  14. Yes, he would take the exact same swings on the White Sox, against different pitchers. I'm not going to play the "Oh, somebody had a hit who was available" game. Did he have his hits against a schlub?
  15. Adell's not a CF. I'll be KiteKrazy for a moment. You've become so accustomed to screaming about a 120 loss team, you have no idea what you're watching with a potential playoff team...that shouldn't even be in that position. Everybody mocked me for predicting they'd win more than 75 games. So....where is your 68 win team, now? Oh, they have 5 weeks left to play. LOL. It would have been really weird for the Sox to keep Pereira and then have him go on the IL, yet again, for whatever, like he JUST DID. Dude can't stay in one piece. I understand, you like to root for dudes on the IL. I like to root for dudes who are playing.
  16. Adell mostly sucks and is on a run. Lightning in a bottle. Good for them. If the Sox traded for him, I'd be screaming for Getz's head.
  17. Is it a thing, where you're down, 11-2 in the bottom of the 9th, 2-out, and you just get the game over? Is that a thing? That looked like a horrible at-bat. I hate when everybody's like, "whaddya swingin at?!?" But that looked like, "let's go home."
  18. Eat s%*#, Nimmo!!! 0-1 against Acuña
  19. And Mune's got to cut the bullshit, also. This is the team heading into the playoffs. A team expected to challenge .500 this year. But I agree that there's problems.
  20. Sure. And there's about 5 shortstops behind him in the system right now. As WS23 said, I'm tweaking RayRay for his blather. Colson's got some adjustments to make for 2027, or Paul DeJong is a bridge too far for him to get to.
  21. Because Pereira will end up playing less than 50 games of a 162 schedule. That's Yoan/2024 territory. I think we're done with that.
  22. I don't believe that. He just needs a reset this off-season.
  23. I think Acuña needs to be getting more starts about now. I've been told that Colson is elite and that Venable is stoopid to do anything but start him at shortstop every single game. Maybe somebody should explain why golden sombreros are better than anything else right now.
