  1. July 18th 2014 Coghlan Altuve Alcantara Castro Rizzo Springer Castro Carter Valbuena Dominguez Ruggiano Singleton Sweeney Grossman Castillo Hernandez Hoes Those are dog ass lineups. Those teams would both go to the playoffs the next season. I count 4 people that would be on their respective WS teams. One of which was let go and reacquainted. The lineup today is irrelevant
  2. And my point is it's not indicative of anything other than a bunch of guys are hurt.
  3. The ones who are hurt and clearly part of the future. I'm also inclined to call it 9, as there's one in the minors who should be on the roster.
  4. Calling it 5 and not 8 is at least being a little disingenuous. And again I'll point to the teams that have successfully pulled themselves out of tanks 2014 rosters.
  5. He's actually worse at that than Tilson
  6. At least he can do one thing well.
  7. I'd be perfectly happy if the Sox were consistently in the bottom half of the league in manager salary.
  8. I mean, I honestly believe Madrigal would be a minor step up from Yolmer at this point. But yeah, Idk
  9. It's gotta be so awkward for all the chaff on this roster.
  10. At least he can catch the ball.
  11. This seems like a major overreaction
  12. I'm not sure if I want him to work out because it'd help the team, or because it would be reassuring to outsmart the Astros. Edit: I assumed I was behind on him getting a hit or something
  13. I don't believe he's actually tried to since 2016
  14. He has more HBPs than singles this year. What. The. Hell
  15. Even if it was his call, someone needs to get in his ear and tell him he's one of the better hitters in baseball so stop.
  16. It says foul bunt on game day for the first pitch of Yoans AB. Is that true? If so, W T F

    The infielder not the closer lol

    Well considering the following guys still have yet to be named, I'd say no. Not really sure how he hadn't ended up on the prospect listing though. I didn't think Moncada would be so high tbh. Acuña Bellinger Soto Albies Bregman Tatis Jr Vlad Jr Chapman Trout Yelich

    https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2019-trade-value-11-to-20/ Came in as the #18 most valuable asset in baseball according to FG. Eloy and TA were both honorable mentions
  20. On their own I think both could be had, what I'm saying is it'd be kinda tough to get both at the same time. They both would take mid tier prospects and the Sox don't exactly have a plethora of those. Also I'm pretty sure Dietrich is under control in 2021 as well.
  21. Minus Gerrit Cole, that isn't an offseason that can't imagine the White Sox having. Trading for Nimmo and Dietrich would be pretty tough though I think. But I really would like them both, I need people who know how to take a gd walk.
  22. The biggest thing is that the bottom of the league is such a mess. There are sooooo many teams tanking that the Sox have absolutely no shot of catching, short of completely starting over. They need to find some exit velocity ASAP
  23. They might not compete, but it won't and absolutely should not be for a lack of trying. Punting another year of controllable assets to get like the number 8 pick at best is the absolute dumbest thing they could do.
