Getz also traded cash for Tristan Peters, and Steven Wilson & Yoendrys Gomez for Pereira and Tanner Murray.

He probably tried to run "The Canaryville Castro Commet" by HR for a Vargas nickname, and they told him to just stay home.

I really didn't have a problem with Kay. If he could get through 5 against teams like the Blue Jays just giving up a couple, that gets the job done. He was getting hit hard a bunch, tho. If this is who Vargas is, that trade was an absolute steal. Nice series win. The Sox always play the Jays tough, but this is a sweet surprise after that opening week.

or McGuire.

Gotta get some runs. You're not going to shut these guys out.

Pereira and Quero are probably achy, is all. While I think Acuña should get run out in CF every day until Baldwin comes back, I've heard it said that he's probably the best SS on the team.

I went to the final game of 2024. They sold me upper deck tickets to the closed upper deck at the window and told me to sit wherever I wanted. Attendance for that game was around 15.6k, you might get 20k today, yet.

Not understanding. SoxTalk doesn't have an AI button, yet.

Oh, I'm just reacting to the earlier criticism of Vargs and Mune. They won. I'm drunk.

Murakami should have come off the bag and tagged the runner in the 10th. I guess that's what happens when you don't have 33-year-old veterans on the roster. This is what "playing the kids" looks like. Good win, tho. (Sorry, had some drama all afternoon, watching the game full through, now)

Shriff should just drop "The Pershing Road Pasta Muncher" out of nowhere.

Repurpose those t-shirts. Scrape off everything after "South Side Sam..."

Or maybe his medicals are really a mess, or he's just trying to heal.

He's been assigned to AA.

The Canaryville Canuck

Did they change the standings to W-L-(1 out from losing)? Otherwise, it means the same as a 12-1 clubbing.

Very competent baseball team. High baseball IQ in this one. Gold stars all around.

Hey, does anybody know what the White Sox record is in one-run games? I hear those are really important.

Sign Peters for 3/$110M!!!!

Screw him!! Promote the guy who's had 32 PAs above AA. LOL. And over the first 6 games, Fangraphs doesn't mind his defense.

I think the point here is to have a better pitcher face the first 3-6 hitters and give the "starter" a softer launch against the bottom of the order.
