How unsatisfied will you be if no feathers are ruffled? Sure sounds like you’re trying to force the issue here.

Happy PECOTA Day!
My god. This whole narrative is so false it feels willfully ignorant at this point. If you criticize the team, it does NOT have to mean you think they suck. It does NOT have to mean you hate them. It does NOT have to mean you want them to fail to validate your criticisms. But hey, nuances can be complicated. It’s much easier to have the blanket statement that those critical are complainers, whiners and pessimists that will never be happy. You do you.

Jerry Reinsdorf is cheap
I guess I’m still struggling to get to that point, but I respect that you have.

100% agree, but there’s something to be said about putting the team in the best position to succeed. (Especially since the window is supposedly finally open.) Do you feel the FO has done that? I certainly don’t.

I don’t know if anyone is necessarily saying that. Maybe some are, but I think it’s obvious to most they have a nucleus that can be great. But why stop there? Even if you’re great, you can always improve more. Now we seemingly have to hope for and count on good health and significant strides from younger players to reach that greatness, which is just playing with fire.

Right. The FO version of playing down to your opponent. Not exactly the approach of a championship organization.

One can enjoy the team while still being upset at their refusal to go from a “very damn good” baseball team to a great one, especially when presented with countless opportunities to do so. Why is this so hard to comprehend?

Crossing fingers while settling for “good enough”: It’s the White Sox way

Old: Mega Hendriks Speculation Thread
Certainly not putting any stock in this tweet, but I’d like to make fun of the logic nonetheless. If you think there is an option that is “just as capable” AND “less expensive,” why on earth are you trying for the more expensive option in the first place?

Day 12 of no new Sox News
Ah, one of my favorite Internet personality types. Deciding what people are or aren’t sincere about for them and presenting it as fact. Can’t possibly let a opportunity to be cynical slip by. How ever would we know just how intelligent you are?

9/27 GT: Cubs @ Sox (2:10pm)
You can be happy with what the Sox did this year and that they are perhaps ahead of schedule, while also being pissed that they are falling apart here late. Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
