yes, that complication is Eloy Jimenez

“Moves”

I mean, we’re back to first base in the outfield at least. That’s what we’re looking for.

Perhaps the approach toward candidates needs a slight tweak.

He claims when other owners spend on big deals for players, he has to follow suit. Except, he never has. they're the dumb ones though, winning in the playoffs, while his teams don't, to a historically bad level of don't

Pearls of baseball business wisdom. Backed by accomplishments. Yes , Jerry milks money from the White Sox. That, he indeed understands

His lack of self awareness and hypocrisy was astonishing.

I wasn’t talking about last season at the deadline. By the way, you don’t have to post replies to people like a next level jerk.

They should have traded him really while they had the chance. That would never happen in Chicago though. Jerry has sacred cows aplenty. Basically every veteran player is a sacred cow. Unless I guess that one time. In band camp.

A mid first round pick that gets to the show and has any MLB career is an exception. That was pretty weak draft IIRC. There weren’t high expectations for Jake Burger. Injuries taking a guy out is a side category to me.

That’s the good news. There is a bullpen manager alchemist out there that can fix this.

Do what exactly?

You can take Tony off the team, but you can't get the Tony out.

Wow. The dreaded hamstrings.

I think there is a lack of peer pressure setting good culture example. Which is of course, the responsibility of the organization to aquire the right people in the clubhouse. We hoped Pedro could artificially make thgings happpen along those lines. But he has to be backed up by a GM ready to make changes. Gas Can Kuechel flamed out, but early on he identified a problem on this team. The organization is static and sentimental.

If JR had a sense of humor, they would let him throw out the first pitch in one of these games soon. Would diffise some of the tension, and be somewhat disarming. But JR does not.

Jerry is great at humanity in the office. And he has garnered support from some because of that. He has no business owning professional sports teams that are required to build an organization that can focus sustained excellence on the field, and on the court.

BERTO signs at the ballpark!

The White Sox have never won a playoff series outside of 2005. Which was basically just a good team that caught a heater.

Stoney needs to offer a mea culpa. He was wrong, and critical fans have been right.
