Look at Ray Ray Run

Hahn has honestly been telling us this was the plan since November. Looking back, this was my favorite Hahn quote: “We made some improvements [with Hernandez], but there’s still a chance to potentially get better in that regard, too,” Hahn said. The improvement was signing a guy who is worse lol

Bunch of not real Sox fans around here like ChiSox59 and Chicago White Sox! I hope they feel much shame for their non-fanhoods!

Wow, you're amazing. Who knew you could diagnose injuries from videos? That's quite the skill. I wonder why doctors even did tests, they should have just consulted you after you watched the injury happen.

Vaughn was more than serviceable in LF.

Lol

Just means we're going from inbev beers to miller-coors owned beers. Not like goose island was some craft brewery. Both portfolios have a ton of beers. Miller coors has a strong history in Chicago oddly enough

Because it's spring training?

Could you imagine if the Sox traded hendriks because no one wanted kimbrel. Lol

Poppy told me the sox have a lot more top secret data that we don't have access to so we should not question their logic.

Obviously this was the one he could execute on. All these other stupid teams giving only 1 year and a couple two year contracts to relievers. They don't realize prices are gonna sky rocket next off-season and hahn has his locked in for 3.

Hahn was shocked other teams also valued starting pitching. He was caught off guard. Thought he found a market inefficiency

Yeah, but he's almost thirty so tons of years of improvement and growth left in the youngsters arm.

Sp depth piece. Hahn special.

Luis, Luis, Luis! "Petriello: Guaranteed Rate Field doesn’t have a roof, so there is no ceiling here. I know his 2021 got messed up by injury, but you know what really impressed me? He showed that enormous drop in strikeout rate, down to about league average. If that's real, you've got a guy who doesn't strike out too much ... who is a fantastic defensive center fielder ... who has a career slugging percentage over .500 ... and who is only 24 years old. If it's not Trout here next year, it's Robert, at No. 1."

Poopy Sox strikes again!

Seems to be some people here conflating liability in regards to cities (regarding moving and not having a team somewhere) with an inability to move being caused by anti-trust.

This just isn't true, honestly. Been plenty of polls suggesting that the South and Western Suburbs are more Sox (northwest Indiana too) than Cubs. Cubs have the north, more of downtown, and obviously the far west into Iowa, middle part of the state and far north suburbs; Cubs also have a bigger national following due to their days on WGN, and they get more tourists because of their ballpark location and because for some reason fans like going to a garbage dump because it's old. The actual split within the close suburbs and the city isn't all that varied. If the Sox are good they'll be around 47-48% of the split.

I'm high on Vaughn too, just not sure what that has to do with right fielders. ?

You know what they say about assumptions!

GIven that it's a bit at this point, I find it equaly amusing how offended people continue to get over a word that really isn't offensive in anyway.

@Chicago White Sox Can you help our pal. He seems to have some doubts. I don't have time to dig up these quotes.

The guy created a thread complaining about things other people post so I have no idea how this defense can even be made.

The funny thing is I'm absolutely excited for the season. This doesn't take away my excitement at all for the current team or the players. It's actually why I'm most frustrated with the leadership, because I am so optimistic about these guys and want to see them succeed. Also, creating a thread to lambast peoples thoughts isn't typically going to generate responses such as "man, you're so right. What was I thinking?"

Rick Hahn said the Sox had a weakness in RF and expected to target a power lefty bat for the position. Was Rick Hahn being negative?

"A mistake is not something to be determined after the fact, but in the light of the infromation until that point."
