Sox just lost most embarrasing DH in 120 years of MLB
If they get swept this series, Ricky should get fired. He won't...but this is pathetic. Zero preparation from their offense is just sad and completely on the coaching staff.

Hell yeah La Pantera!

1 Tantalizing Trade Chip for all 30 teams
Big no to Will Myers. He is not worth that contract and even if they eat some it hurts the chance of paying for a starter. Peterson can be an option, but only if the price is reasonable. With all the Sox injuries, many of the trade chips are probably not appealing right now

So who's the next manager?
Praise the stars....Jim Boylen is fired! Is there hope for Ricky Axe???

Leadoff Man going forward - TA or Robert?
Imagine having the problem of three great hitters in the leadoff spot. Has this team ever had that problem? Supplement that with 2-6 all being capable of driving in 100 runs or more and trying to figure that out as well.

Would you add a FA starter b4 2021, and who/why?
I loved Q when he was here. Ready to move on though. Keuchel is already the crafty, smart lefty the team needs. They need more of a #2 type guy and Q is not that anymore. Giolito FA Keuchel Cease Kopech/Dunning Lopez is either traded for a RF or converted to a dominant Bullpen guy. Honestly if Bummer or Foster can be the closer moving forward, Lopez could be a really important bullpen piece.

Series v St. LOUIS
Cards hitters are going to be RUSTY. And their starters will be surely be on pitch counts. Gotta pounce on them. NO MERCY!

Series v St. LOUIS
Want 2 games. 2 days off with Friday cancelled is perfect. Can't have double headers on a compressed schedule

Bauer obviously. Just don't see why he would pick Sox. I really like Stroman on a 2 year deal with a player option 3rd. That lures him from other teams on the 1 year prove it offers and doesn't kill the books if he is mediocre. I like his fire, even if it's annoying at times.

What happened to Jose Quintana?
Thanks. No need to add more commentary.

What happened to Jose Quintana?
Hahn sold high for a perennial 35hr everyday player and a #3 starter. Couldn't pass that up. Quintana was due to regress with some of his outliers.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER
Can he play shortstop at all though? That really is important in his true use. Mendick and Engel should absolutely be on this roster the next couple seasons with defensively ability and decent at bat potential.

FutureSox Dane Dunning feature
We won the Shields Trade: “James Shields got me to go to a spiked curveball, he threw his curveball a little differently than me, and I wanted to try his out,” Dunning said. “When I tried his, it was a lot more effective and sharp. But I wasn’t throwing it consistently until I went to a spike.” “Yasmani [Grandal] switched up the grip on my changeup. Now it’s a lot more effective. The numbers on it show that it’s getting better. Coaches like Everett Teaford, who has been helping me get carry and ride on my four-seam. Now everything is getting put together, and I feel really good about it.”

8/12 Game Thread Sox@ Detroit finale noon start
this is ridiculous. This team needed a good framer. The sox got the best. This team needed a Lefty with OBP. They got the best available on the market. The team wanted a proven talent. They got it, and at market price. Grandal has looked fine and once he goes on a hot streak I can't wait to see all the crow posts.

yeah, today has sealed this for me. The question is where does that put Robert long term? 2nd? 6th? TA7 Robert Moncada Abreu Grandal Eloy That is nice and you can move Eloy around based on lefty/righty

8/12 Game Thread Sox@ Detroit finale noon start
He should be out of the inning because he striked out a batter, but he got crossed up with McCann and it was a passed ball, then got what would have been the third out via strikeout, then completely shit the bed with 2 outs.

He just can't pitch around adversity. McCann screwed up...but all those runs are on Cease. Damnit.
