The Worst Owner in Sports? The case for Jerry Reinsdorf
Satisfied may not be the right word. But they are compromising, and have low standards for their dollar/approval.

I hate the Cubs. Yet as long as the Cubs are ahead of us in the standings and overall development of the roster and organizational support systems, it’s difficult to take a lot of schadenfreudesque cuts at them.- Crochet trade; almost a season later
That being said, we should just make it clear up front that we aren’t keeping any superstars we might be lucky enough to bring up as our own prospects. Just tell us the truth, man.- Crochet trade; almost a season later
That POV and determination a loss for an organization and fanbase going in. That’s like saying we’re losers. We suck, but we’re trying to make the best of it. Gaaaaaaa!- Savanah Bananas tonight at Sox Park
MLB ratings may be moving in the right direction, but more KPop is not traced among factors.- Savanah Bananas tonight at Sox Park
Babe Ruth ate a lot of hot dogs.- Savanah Bananas tonight at Sox Park
WWE, Magic Mike, children and youth oriented cornball is not for everyone. Entertainment is in the eye of the beholder.- Savanah Bananas tonight at Sox Park
Curious to know if most of the haters are indeed “old”. Myself being one of them could help indicate age. Choreographed Hot dogging in sports has always been cringe to a lot of people, and this is like the World Series of choreographed hot dogging. Enjoy.- Crochet Trade Outcome Tracker
I don’t know what you do for a living, but it’s not real estate. Taking that perspective into a meeting with your client seller will get you fired.- Crochet Trade Outcome Tracker
It’s not about recouping value in general, it’s about value relative to what you should and could be getting- Sox trade Andrew Vaughn to acquire Aaron Civale

I begrudge somebody. Just not sure who it is or who it should be.- Colson Montgomery has arrived
Ah. So basically, the light went on for maturity *reasons* which have less to do with special development work or repairs. I just don’t believe teams deserve as much credit or blame that they get. Teams that are good at signing talent get lauded for their developmental ability. But really they are just signing better ballplayers- Colson Montgomery has arrived
What changes were made?- Colson Montgomery has arrived
The good ones hit mistakes. But boy, that was a mistake.- Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
We assumed- 2026 MLB Draft Thread...White Sox Control Draft/Emerson gaining
So he is so good that Carleson already being here makes no difference. Positional value and BPA still- What if things changed in 26
—-Rick Hahn listened to his staff and players. He refused to move Gonzalez and gave him a shot in the big leagues. But once Hahn was fired, GM Chris Getz did not have the same reverence for Gonzalez's intangibles and potential. The White Sox designated Romy Gonzalez for assignment on January 26, 2024. They have lived to regret that decision and the entire baseball world is now shaming them for letting Romy Gonzalez get away ENTIRE BASEBALL WORLD! https://southsideshowdown.com/white-sox-get-shamed-romy-gonzalez-underrated-mlb-star-news- White Sox acquire OF Will Robertson from Blue Jays
- While Everyone Talks about the Tatis trade, was the Samardzija trade even worse?
50-60 home runs sort of speaks for itself. If there is a Sox tax on marketing exposure, that’s a shame. But some people just care about the baseball.- While Everyone Talks about the Tatis trade, was the Samardzija trade even worse?
Baseball, between the lines is the POV- While Everyone Talks about the Tatis trade, was the Samardzija trade even worse?
So the Sox got a year, the Cubs got one of greatest hitters of all time for a career. Sox didn’t need that though. - Sun Times says it’s time for the Schrif to move on
