2024 White Sox Opening Day thread 3/28 3:10 first pitch vs Detroit
Our offense this year looks worse than last year. Didn’t bring in any offensive upgrade. Still havethe same problems at catcher, 2B, RF, Ss.

2024 White Sox Opening Day thread 3/28 3:10 first pitch vs Detroit
Sad so far. Sox punchless today. Then Anderson and Burger with 4 RBIs. Doesn’t look like we upgraded the infield hitting offensively.

Giolito to the Red Sox, 2 years $38.5 million, Y1 opt out
It was reported in the press this week that Giolito may be out for the season with a bad elbow.

Grifol: DeJong, Lopez, Maldonado are good on offense
Grifol is delusional. Falling in love with aging journeymen flirting with the Mendoza line, and expecting all of a sudden to become good offensive players.

Which of the Sox players, coaches, and management are you referring to? There are quite a few that meet this description.

2/27 LA Ohtanis vs Chicago KCs
Same old, same old.

2/27 LA Ohtanis vs Chicago KCs
I think you are right. It does not look better than last season’s and with bad manager still around. A lot of recycled and journeymen types andan awful bullpen as shown on this game.

Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
We also gave up too soon on Burger who has done well for himself in Miami. TA could do the same.
-
Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
There will not be many boos in Miami, because there are not any people attending Marlins games.
-
Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
Off. Field issues could actually get worse for TA in Miami, with all the action in South Beach, and hot women everywhere.

John Brebbia signs with Sox, Romy DFA'd/claimed by Red Sox
There is no OF depth chart. We keep spending on relievers and not on every day position players like RF.

Sox select John Schriffen to be TV PbP announcer
Kasper Gordo combo would be the Ambien combo will put you to sleep guaranteed.

White Sox trade Yohan to Mets
I was not fooled as Moncada is Yoan not Yohan. After trading Burger, a big misrtake, Moncada was ticketed for third and unlikely to be traded IMO,.
-
Giolito speaks...
And Ventura was not to write home about either.
-
Bummer to ATL
There is always demand for left handed relievers and Bummer had some good years. Regardless I think the Braves overpaid and should be a good trade for the Sox.
-
Benetti to Tigers
I will miss Jason. Had a good voice and demeanor. Local guy. He was nationally recognized with national broadcasting gigs of other sports. Something went wrong as it's hard to fathom that the Tigers job would be more attractive than Chicago’s.

Kim Ng walks away from Marlins
Sherman is a Wall Street financial guy, not a baseball person.

ESPN ranked White Sox season #30 last in MLB with an F ranking.
Agree. It is beyond dumb to bring back the manager of such a bad performing team. I guess the main reason is that he is under contract and JR does not want to pay him as well as a new manager. IMO.

Giolito's Decline
It was a good trade for the Sox after all.

ESPN ranked White Sox season #30 last in MLB with an F ranking.
ESPN+ has ranked White Sox season #30 last in majors with an F ranking, citing front office mayhem and underperforming. An embarrassment by the Sox this season.

9/26-28, Sox vs Diamondbacks series
Lineup today is pitiful. Patino already out. Sure the Cubbies are not happy with the Sox’s effort against the DBacks this week.

The "Royalization" of the White Sox...
KC has lost 102 games this season, a bigger loser than even the Sox. It is a no brainer to NOT want to be like the Royals.
-
Luis Robert Jr. will be evaluated Monday in Chicago
The Sox should have considered shutting him down for the rest of the season, as others not in the playoffs have done.

9/20 vs. WSH: “There’s No Gamethread” Gamethread
This game was a minor league pitching exhibition by the Sox. Very ugly. ?
