Jerry Reinsdorf open to selling the White Sox per Britt Ghiroli
Johno replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If someone would like to send a letter to Jerry R, is there a specific business address to send him such a letter? i would welcome a chance to send him a letter and give him some of my thought on how sad this would be if the Sox moved from Chicago to Nashville. i’ve been a fan for just under 60 years, the thought of them deserting the South Side is almost criminal -
Any thought of going into the college ranks and finding a coach. The baseball coach from university of Tennessee would be an interesting candidate. Younger, outgoing also runs a good program.
-
This was the guy i was hoping for……..oh well.

for a team to not hire a manager during the MLB playoffs, so that it doesn’t take away from the games being played? if that’s still the case we are talking November before we know who the next manager is.

This is total BS!!! i guess he’s saying with Kannapolis and Birmingham winning, true reinforcements are ON THE WAY!!!! Anyone who follows the minor leagues knows our hitting talent is fair at best. We will NOT be spending money in the off-season on free agent talent so there is no hope of the offense improving. We are looking at a third season in a row with 100+ losses. i’m guessing that has never happened before?
-
Are the White Sox on any of the top International players expected to sign in January, 2025?
-
i could be TOTALLY off on this but i don’t think this guy ever worked out during the off-season, i think he was flat out lazy. Baseball is a game that once you start struggling, it’s very hard to turn it around. A total waste!!
-
Overall the Gonzalez experience in Double A hasn’t gone to well, is it to early to say he’s a “non-prospect” at this time?
-
You could not have said this any better
-
i’m not sure anyone can answer that question. The key is going to be players like Ramos, Fletcher, Lee, Baldwin, Robert, Vaughn and Sheets can they become better at hitting? if they are struggle again next year, it’s going to be another ugly season. If they all can improve, maybe a 60 to 70 win team.
-
is Robert even a top 100 player? At this time i would say no
-
Watching the full interview with Getz, the only conclusion i can make is that he’s completely lost his marbles. Look at the minor league stats, there is no immediate help coming this way on the position side. i almost feel sorry for him!!
-
Unless they make some major changes with him, he should not be considered a prospect anymore
-
So help me understand, will there be replacement hires or are they just reducing the scouting department with no plans to replace?
-
Spot on with number 9 and 10. 50% reduction in ticket prices would help fill the seats. Yes, MLB needs to step up and help this pitiful organization and give them the first pick in the draft. Maybe even the first 5 picks😄
-
You might be right, he might want nothing to do with this total train wreck, but just maybe a guy like Franconia feels that this is the ultimate challenge and turning this team into a winner would be extra special.
-
When this horrific season finally ends, i believe the first move this organization needs to do is hire a manager that is respected by everyone in MLB. I would say Terry Franconia is that guy. For those who say fire Getz and the entire front office, i think we all realize that’s not going to happen, so i’m going to pivot to the manager. This team has basically become the laughing stock of ALL of sports at this time, that’s why bringing in a manager that is respected by all must take place for us to have any chance of landing any sort of free agent talent in the offseason.
-
Spot on!!!! If we landed some soon to be ready talent in any of these trades, I’d have some optimism. By the way, Check out the batting average of the outfielder we landed in the Cease trade, he’s batting about 150…… just brutal
-
Seeing the talent on Baltimore versus the garbage we are throwing out there is almost unbelievable. The entire organization needs to be blown up and start all over again.
-
There is no reason Nicky should be playing any more this season, ALL at bats should be going to Baldwin!!!
-
one thing about Nicky, he at least seemed to care, there are about 10 to 12 guys on that team who have thrown in the towel, including our “superstar” Robert!
-
it kills me to say this but Robert is nothing more than a average baseball player. i’m starting to think his “slump” is nothing more than who he is. Turn on Yankee game and watch Judge or Soto, a Royals game and watch Witt or an Orioles game and watch a few of there players and you see true Superstar type players. Robert is no where close to being like that!!
-
Getz should be fired just based off the pitiful return on the trades he made last month. it’s beyond embarrassing!!!
