Moncada es?…
-
He cares about winning that validates his hubris. Always, that has been who he is. If he had to do things the way the rest of the league does things, winning would probably be begrudgingl
-
if anyone would be surprised would be remarkable. They had one good half season (fueled by scrubs) in the last handful of years. And some people crowned their ass. This is what they are.
-
Yep. A futile and stupid gesture is what we need. This team needs a 2 week stretch of good baseball just to be considered possibly worthy of a boost. Possibly.

Papa was a rollin’ stone….

I can see what you did there. The deeply hidden sarcasm, antipathy for the Tatis deal. We will heed your warning

Nobody limping? Who’s resting tomorrow?

Reinsdorf doesn’t fire executives until they are 5 years past expiration date.

Well , we’ve gone from mediocre to embarrassing. But we were embarrassed before technically
-
Well the team was sharper when they had the scrubs in the first half providing the energy and focus for sure. Kimbrel was just a dumb move that poured gas on the fire. This group is a bad bunch of coconuts. In the FO you gotta be able to see problems and weaknesses, and react ahead of time in some instances. They desperately need a new set of eyes like the Bears.

speaking of Colson Montgomery, you can call him Mr 100 for now. He made it.

How fast is Montomery? He doesn't look 'slow', but he did do that Madrigalesque wired up segment when he was claiming to be very slow. Slow might inhibit his outfield career.

you're on vacation, chilling by the pool watching the game, and 2 hookers come up to you offering anal. What do you do? What. Do. You. Do?

Fare thee well, Richie.

OZZIE SAYS ITS RIDICULOUS ALL THESE YOUNG GUYS IN THEIR 20s NEED REST

Fegan, via The Athletic, said second baseman Lenyn Sosa is a prospect that could be traded in the coming weeks. While trading away the promising 22-year-old might surprise some fans, Fegan said a potential move would be due to Chicago being "light on near-major-league-ready pieces." Sosa has been absolutely crushing it in Double-A Birmingham this season. The Venezuelan phenom is tied for the Barons' team lead with 14 home runs, pacing all of his teammates with 48 RBIs as well. That isn't even to mention his .331/.384/.549 slash line and 141 total bases amassed. Sosa's efforts earned him a call-up to the majors just over a week ago, but it didn't go as planned. He recorded a hit, two runs and one walk in four games (12 at-bats), batting .083. Nevertheless, it's hard not to imagine him producing better than that when he's called up next. Parting ways with a top prospect like Sosa would be tough, but it's worth it if the return helps the White Sox return to the playoffs. The 2022 MLB trade deadline takes place at 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Aug. 2. https://theathletic.com/3388169/2022/06/29/mlb-trade-deadline-moves/?source=emp_shared_article

Some day an author will do a deep dive on Oscar Colas and get to the bottom of this. ?
-
It’s really difficult seeing him have more than 1 or 2 good seasons in him at the most. I would never resign this guy.
-
Frank Thomas skipped AAA. All that matters is if a guy can play if called up. Sosa never really had a chance. Colas should be encouraged if players in the org can skip AAA. OTOH, if Colas is friends with Yolbert…..That conversation between them might be negative if they feel stuck
-
I would bet money it’s a misunderstanding as far as what the story is actually about. Even if he was held back too long (for his taste), he can’t be stupid enough to start a self immolation process at an important part of his career that is so far successful. Impatience can’t make a sane person do this right?

If Eloy embraces his future as a first base/DH guy, Im down.
