Whomever said Meidroth isn't there yet I agree. I very much wanted him at 2nd opening the season. His eye is great but his hard contact isn't there. I'd very much like our opening day catching tandem to be Teel/Lee. When we talk about vets taking young at bats to me that is Thaiss. Id like to see more Quero too. If Quero/Teel don't break with the club I feel they'll be there by June at the latest.

Michael Taylor looks awful....which is too bad I've always liked him.

I thought that was her!

Smith strikes out Ohtani, Freeman, Smith.....great work locating fastball.

This makes my disdain for Jerry thar much greater.

Brandon Drury is making this team and I'm completely down for that.

Id very much like to see him near the top of the lineup this season.

Generally I'd agree with you. But they're getting drilled everyday and look horrible in the process. Even in spring a win or two breeds positivity and individual success.

It's crazy that even in spring there's not one hitter who looks remotely good......like nobody.

I love that people here waste their time with the same arguments every time this dude is signed. I hope this place never changes 🤣

I'm just here for the overreactions 🤣

I'm all for reclamation projects this year. That being said, the last thing I want to see this season is Joey Gallo at bats. Chris is talking a lot of "new direction" speak, and then I see the same old crap.

I hear you. But personally I'd be happy to never see Vargas play again. I've seen enough.

I still think Quero makes the team. Drury as dh would make sense too. I know there's an argument he's "blocking people" but they'll be enough opportunities to go around. If Drury regains form no reason not to utilize that and maybe, maaaybe try to win a few more games.

Seems a lingering hamstring issue could've contributed to the drury down year. I actually really like this. We have a few decent bounceback candidates which could be fun to watch.

I miss meaningful White Sox games past April 6th.

JR couldn't have been there more than a minute. As soon as multiple fans started to squawk he was gone.

Yes. I thought that sucked too. A bunch of people brought baseballs. We brought one. Couldn't bring em in. I saw a guy at the door with a whole bag of baseballs he wanted to get signed get told he had to leave them or put them in his car. My little guy just got the poster they provided signed.

Some notes from tonight: Whoever said not kid friendly got it right. I brought my 7 yr old who enjoyed it anyway but having the kids location separate was not smart. Theres not really much for them to do and i felt like i observed other disappointed parents. This format works better for a smaller event and it was fine but nowhere near what it had been in years past. The "state of the Sox" seminar was very uncomfortable. Chris didn't have the balls to get up there so he loses points. The group gave a lot of cliche statements about playing hard, improving fundamentals blah blah blah. A lot of antsy people wanted to ask questions but instead shriffen and stone asked "fan" questions from pre selected cards. Here's where I give Scriffen a lot of credit. He saw this wasn't working and went to the audience for questions. There was no mic so he repeated them. Some okay, nothing super pressing, but props to him for getting a few legit questions. Jerry made an appearance from the balcony to watch. As soon as a handful of fans caught that and started chanting to "sell the team" he bolted. And the seminar was cut at about 30 minutes as they stated they ran out of time which was crap too. The meet and greets were the only thing that I thought worked. My son was pumped to get his first autographs and we legit walked right in and out with some of our younger players. This format will not work if this franchise ever draws legit interest again. Nice restoration though.

I agree with that. A no-brainer would've been to just celebrate 05 as the main focus. Has there been any schedule of events released? Or is it just gonna be a mess? I feel i know the answer. Disregard I see it now. Not sure how a random band playing is relevant to Sox fans but alright.

I don't hate this

All I'm sayin. Ive got two young kids who love baseball. But the Sox have only moderately held their attention. I grew up in the early 90s watching my family live and die with every pitch. Id like to share that with them before they get tired of the shittiness and move on to other teams. This crap is having a much bigger effect on the long term fanbase than Jerry realizes. The hell with down the road. Our last rebuild was interrupted by an f'n pandemic. Who knows what 5 years brings. I want watchable baseball from my favorite team.

Long term consequences....like 3 consecutive 100 loss seasons? Having to constantly look 5 years down the road for a watchable team? I'm fine with the consequences. Sign real major leaguers.

But.......they don't rebuild the right way. They're not gonna build a team that gives 5 consecutive division titles and a ws. They're just not. So rather that a s%*# rebuild and losing 100 a year, how about a s%*# rebuild and they have a .500 team that might luck into a playoff spot? One deep, total rebuild was enough. Spend some money and give a palatable product.

They blew what.....30 saves last year? Maybe an all star closer? Just sayin....it doesn't have to be as hard as this franchise makes it.
