Why the hell did he hesitate rounding third?

Bad math, on a pace to be shutout 60 times! Still take the over!

On a pace to be shutout 20 times this year. My money is on the over!

This is like watching a movie where you know how it ends!

Yes, true, but it was the begining of their downfall.

Money Talks!

In a debacle such as the 2024 White Sox, one can always point out to that specific moment where it all started to go to sh$$#$%t. A case in point - The NBA's Detroit Pistons - The draft where they passed up on both Carmelo Anthony and Dwayne Wade to Draft that European monster, Darko Milicek. They haven't been relevent since! For the Sox, I go back to when their glorious owner insisted bringing Tony LaRussa out of retirement - or a nursing home - to manage the Sox. At the same time A.J Hinch was sitting out their looking for a managerial job, and I , for one was screaming for the Sox to hire him. They did not - and now look at what Hinch is doing in Detroit. Of course, it does take more than a manager. It takes a knowlegeable GM and an owner willing to open his wallet. This off season the Tigers went out and brought in some proven Major league talent in Mark Cahna, Gia Urshela and Jack Flaherty....while the Sox bring in the likes o Nicky Lopez, Braden Shewmake (who???) and Dominick Fletcher (who???). Others were out there: Soler, Hernandez, Renfroe, Merrifield, Gurriel, Chapman, JD Martinez - just to name a few. And there were pitchers available as well, but the braintrust - and I use the word brain here modestly - chose to go with the likes of Deivi Garcia, Dominick Leone, Brian Shaw, Tim Hill (who???)...Someone explain to Reinsdorf that in today's world of MLB, and sports in general, you have to spend money to win....and even if you are good at identifying young talent, as soon as they make it big you have to SPEND MONEY to keep those players. Jerry: do you really want a fan base who is simply waiting for your time to come? Sell now to someone who cares.

Why not go sign Jordan Montgomery. The Sox can use a lefty starter in their rotation.

We all want he players the Sox get back in a trade to become elite, but in the longrun, does it really matter? If they somehow develop into great players, they'll be gone when their next contract comes up because JR will not outspend other teams who are willing to put up the big bucks to either retain the great players or acquire them from other teams. In a sense, the Sox have become the defacto minor leagues for teams like the Yankees, Dodgers, and most recently, the Padres.

Then let's sign George Brett and Freddy Patek!

That won't end well.

Would they be in a better bargaining position if they kept him and waited for the trade deadline in August?

It’s hard for me to understand how the Sox are ahead of the Royals in the standings when everyone they bring up or trade for seem so much better than anyone the Sox bring up or trade for.

Colas is overmatched vs. lefties.

2-0, The Royals have broken it open.

This could be a no hitter day for Ragans.

Grandal has a groin injury…

Cronin has been impressive!

If Vaughn could only learn to lay off that pitch down and away!

The Yankee announcers say Schmidt is very bad the third time through the lineup. Let’s see how the Sox do against him.

They really need TA to bunt here.

Laughable, but does it rally matter? They could have scored 10 runs, and they’d end up losing 13-10.

This team is the fucking laughingstock of MLB!

Can they just forfeit the rest of the season?

Please, please, please, please DFA Moncada!
