Can the 20s be the best decade in Sox history?
I have my doubts about the Pods ever breaking through.

White Sox Sign Robert to Extension
I can do that while lighting my cig. Poor guy could not pull the ball so his HR were mostly CF.

****Next Up. (Jan 2, 2020) RHRF and Relief Pitching
In 1972 Sox had three young pitchers who could touch 100. Goose Forster and Black Bart.

Can the 20s be the best decade in Sox history?
Maybe Tatis and Yoan will enter The Hall together. Maybe Tatis will have a chronic bad back and his brother will emerge as a talent along with Yogurt Sanchez. Some people thought Buxton was going to have a great career. Others thought Ortiz wasn't worth keeping around and not coachable. Maybe Muchado will never make the playoffs.

The 1954 squad went 94-60 which was only good for third place. There must have been a few pretty bad teams in that eight team league just after the Browns left St. Loo and the A's were getting ready to leave Phila. The Senators were almost always bad.

I am compiling a bio on Tayron's Sox career. It could take a good while.

Sox acquire Nomar Mazara for Steele Walker
If Mazara works out the Socks could have three studs in the OF, one roaming and two stumbling. I believe he will prove his worth.

88 often refers to piano. Perhaps he is also a Maestro Liberace.

White Sox Sign Robert to Extension
We know one club that has put itself on the right side of a good-faith bargain. Luis will hit six HR and five bunt singles on OD.

Sox acquire Nomar Mazara for Steele Walker
I am trending toward this being an educated, well-informed gamble on a 24 yoa guy with good upside. He will not be worse than average against righties and this will not end up a disaster. He also makes plays in the field but I assume his range is a bit low and plodding.

Here’s A Laugh
Some people see change as the enemy. Just give me my old tricks and play happy.

He sounds like a real twat brain, mildly entertaining. His trash talk is uber juvenile.

Twinks should be looking at how NYY operates and how can they compete better with the Yanks pitching.

Here’s A Laugh
Sox are low on hustle index but excel on bunted balls in play. He left out Kopech Robert and Madrigal. If the Twinks sign Josh D and move Skanko to 1B they would be well served. They signed a pitcher who may not even pitch. I would speculate Josh is just using them for leverage. Even though the Sox have a Fundamentals section the Twins play better baseball. We have all seen that but we have Rikki Rentoria.

Year in Review (2019 Soxtalk)
Here's to the AL's worst team of the decade and their loyalists. And to Bruce who said the Sox are glad not to have Muchado cuz Manny is all about Manny.

How good do YOU think we can be next season?
It is possible our system has some relief help but no one obvious right now. I am not certain if Gio2 or Nova could work out of the pen. The hitting should be good but the pitching and defense may hold them back. Their window of contention right now is not quite ready to blossom. With the division faltering it is time to step up and compete. Lopez and Cease are unknown quantities going into ST.

Jake Burger Thread
Was checking in on Jake. Did not see any instructional league work due to continuing sore heel. Has missed two years of baseball. I doubt they have any plan at this point. If he misses ST they might as well send him home.

Why has Hahn failed?
Fans of Soxorg have to accept that their team is not likely to sign the top few blockbuster FA's which also leads to cap issues. After the Red Sox Yanks Dodgers Angels Phils and Cubs they should be able to spend according to their aspirations. They made five incremental signings and a trade which along with a few more moves will allow them to be competitive. I expect them to somewhat follow the Mets model as poor sister in a major market, without the pratfalls, comedy and miscues. That said we need to dispense with a decade of failure as MLB's third worst team.

How good do YOU think we can be next season?
The Pods had Muchado and Tatis but the Sox had two more wins. So there is that.
-
How good do YOU think we can be next season?
I am pretty sure Herrera will be healthier and our division will be weak. 85 should be doable but this will be a sloppy squad. We should be better than Cubs or Bosox for a change.
-
How good do YOU think we can be next season?
It might be better to consider if they will improve during the season. Right now the 4ALC is looking down but the Twins might make some moves. The Tribe is not looking viable long term with their payroll moves. The Sox could be a top second half squad due to player development.

How good do YOU think we can be next season?
They need a couple of young pitchers to step up and a manager. New decade, anything goes.
