BUT, I believe SD knew and that neglected to tell us? Did we even ask SD or Clevinger "is there anything in your past recently that could screw things up down the road? He's our George Santos now, but we're not stuck with him. We should wait for the suspension so we don't have to pay him for sure, BUT MY VOTE IS " HE GONE"

Scary thought having Eloy playing ANY outfield position. He pulls a hammy just running to 1st base!!!! He should stay as a DH. Although I'm all in going to the Houston game to see Abreu and get a "Hi Mom" Eloy Bobblehead.

I think TA will step up and be the leader. Liam MIGHT have stepped up if wasn't for his health, but i think TA, will be the leader. sort of agree with Scooter, Vaughn may emerge as the the leader eventually if he can handle the pressure. Robert could be a darkhorse and let's not forget Benitendi MAYBE.

yes, i loved Allen, but he was a premadonna. Got special treatment, we'd never know if was going to show up until you saw the top of his red helmet walking back and forth in the dugout. He was a talent extradinaire. Never went to spring training, never took batting practice and still put up great numbers. If he wasn't beaten into the ground unfairly by the Philly fans, he'd be in the HOF and stayed in Philly for his whole career. Ther racist Philly fans would throw things at him when he was at 1st Base. That's why he started wearing a helmet on defense. They literally had to trade him to save his life. Look up the story on what happened. It was disgusting.

Even though we received Dick Allen for Tommy John, in hindsight Allen lasted 2 years and Tommy John goes on to win another 200 games with 3 20 win seasons and 288 total wins and a whopping 162 complete games and of course the poster boy for the surgery named after him. I’d love 2 TJ’s on my staff!!!

That’s because we had 2 great GM’s that knew how to deal. Today we have a moron who traded away Madrigal and Huer for Kimbrel, TLR used him as a 7th or 8th inning replacement sometimes in the 6th. We have idiots today who are out of touch with the world. Hemond was the best and had balls, brought in Dick Allen, which created excitement for a couple of years. Chuck Tanner as a manger I believe. Ed Shorts moves bringing us Tommy Agee who went on to become part of the miracle Mets of 1969 and bringing back Romano. Hemond bringing us Seaver was brilliant also. Now we’re stuck with an aging owner and a handcuffed GM. Even if he wasn’t handcuffed he’d still screw things up. Sale for Moncada??? Madrigal for Kimbrel???

Great points, BUT 1st of all Montgomery is going to replace Anderson at SS in 2 years when the Sox don't renew his Contract 2nd Crochet i believe is ALMOST untouchable unless it's a much bigger star than Chisholm. 3rd Sosa and Gonzalez would have to really have great springs, and even then the pressure of the regular season is much tougher than the Spring Training. 4th I believe Chisholm has 2 years of control and if he got to expensive, then Sosa and or Gonzalez would be ready. Great Post, will organized and you made great points to think about.

I still, and I know I'm going to get backlash once again, would rather have Chisholm at 2nd then Sosa, Gonzalez or Garcia. Let the hate responses begin calling me stupid, a moron, stupid and my favorite will be "you know nothing about baseball". I'm ready for the ridicule. I just like to have fun and create senario's. Isn't that what this is all about? FUN!!! I haven't seen one response with and alternative cure for 2nd base unless everyone is going to be happy with Sosa/Gonzalez/Garcia at 2nd. If so great.

Sometimes when I saw Aaron Bummer on the mound i wished he was DFA'd LOL, only kidding but Bummer was sometimes a real BUMMER on the mound

See below from White Sox News, I'm not the only nut out there calling for Jazz/Chazz, whatever his name is Home/White Sox News White Sox News: Chicago should be all-in on Jazz Chisholm Jr. following Friday's trade One of the biggest trades of this Major League Baseball off-season took place on Friday afternoon. The Minnesota Twins traded reigning batting title winner Luis Arraez to the Miami Marlins in exchange for Pablo Lopez and two prospects. That is the definition of a blockbuster. The White Sox obviously benefit from this move because of the fact that they won't have to face Luis Arraez as a member of a division rival anymore. He is an elite player against everyone but he seemed to be extra special when he was facing White Sox pitchers. It is good to see him shipped off. By Vincent Parise With this trade though, it is easy to wonder what the Marlins are going to do. They already have Jazz Chisholm Jr. and they signed Jean Segura during the off-season. With Luis Arraez coming to town, what is their plan? According to Kim Ng, they are going to move Jazz Chisholm Jr. to centerfield with Segura at shortstop and Luis Arraez at second base. It is an interesting strategy but it is also fair to wonder if another move is coming for them. The Chicago White Sox are a team that could really use a 2B upgrade. At the very minimum, the White Sox should be calling to check in on Chisholm Jr. He would fit into this team in every way. With how disappointing 2022 was, it would be nice to see them make a splash like this. They desperately need an upgrade at second base but it sounds like they will roll with Romy Gonzalez and Lenyn Sosa as internal options. Chisholm is an All-Star caliber player that makes sense via a trade and the White Sox should be all in on trying to make a move like that. He is also an outstanding hitter that has a proven track record in Major League Baseball now. This lineup would take a big step forward if he became a part of it. Tim Anderson and Jazz Chisholm Jr. would make some great plays together if they were the team's two middle infielders. If Yoan Moncada and Andrew Vaughn had solid defensive years in addition to Chisholm joining the team, the entire makeup of the team could change for the better.

We’ll it seems Quin took it upon himself to do it. I guess all my forum titles will now can and will be messed with.

Quin, why did you mess with my title? You created backlash for the changed title, please leave my stuff alone in the future. squirman Yermin your beef is with Quin on the long title, not me

Question people, can my forum title be altered by anyone? My original title was Marlin make trade for Arezza Chaz could be available, or something to that effect. Now it’s very long title that I did not write.

Is it possible for you to be nice to people. You criticize ever time I post. We are here to fun and discuss things. Who really cares how long my titles are. Be nice. Everyone else is and contributes with respect

I can live with Colas getting a shot in RF or LF if they want Benintendi to switch. But we’re probably better off with Tendi in LF and Colas in RF

Finally a response from someone understands the importance of our 2nd base situation

I’ll never give up. I don’t like our current 2nd base situation. Maybe Chaz can’t or won’t happen, but we have to do something besides having Garcia play 100 games after Sosa and Gonzalez possibly fail.

No it’s Chaz and he’s better than anything we have currently to play second

He’s better than anything we currently have. You’re probably be satisfied with Garcia playing 100 games if Sosa or Gonzalez crap out in Spring training or during the 1st month or so they prove they’re not ready.

I agree we have a bunch of porcelain dolls on this team and if they all can average 120/130 games we’d have a shot. Chaz Chisholm is now available to play 2nd base and if a reasonable deal can be made for him that would only leave RF in which with Chisholm at 2nd, we can have Colas play RF.

Miami trades for 2nd baseman Azzaez. This could loosen up the trade possibilities for Chaz Chisholm. He could be a stop gap until Sosa or Gonzalez can prove themselves

Because of the annoying jingle at every game I WILL NEVER BUY INSURANCE FROM NATIONWIDE, it’s old, tired and annoying.

agree, but you got to play the hand you're dealt. too msny porclean dolls on this team this is what the cheapo's gave us this year.

they didn't do enough considering what was availble, Conforto and Segura as a start. Colas may be a star in the making but he's not ready. Is Clevinger going to be the the Clevinger we saw dominate? Doubt it, they're already saying he's lost 3 or 4 miles off of his fast ball. Is Kopech going to ready? Did they really do anything beyoud Benintendi, which i liked the signing. Too many 1st Baseman DH types. Which Gandal shows up? If Colas fails at the plate we'll have a Garcia Sheets Right Field when Garcia is not playing second Hamilton signing is a joke, i'd rather of had Harrison back and not a fan of Harrison but he's better than Garcia/Sosa/Gonzalez at this time. We have too many player who spend more time on the IR list than on the fiels.

and F*** the Sox, because our Front Office just doesn't care
