That idea should be getting reviewed.

Loser Crap

This may be outrageous, but maybe break up the Cuban connection formula and be more *gasp* conventional? After eons of simple ineptitude, this team has spent decades trying to avoid typical major league pathways to greatness.

We previously had some interesting notions about being above somebody else.

Don't stop….

Evidence, my dear Abreu.......

The Sox’ only problem this year is bad luck. This is fine.

That’s a fine take if you don’t consider his salary. We have already seen the White Sox hit the invisible ceiling that prevented talent from this roster. This player is a major albatross now. If someone offered pennies on the dollar, take it. Its easy to find a hired glove at third base.

I’ve been beating this drum for awhile.

Cespedes and Colas fit the bill, but the team doesn’t want to rush. Sept call ups should be happening, especially now if they had something. Rutherford has been a born AAA player. I don’t know though, a little cup of coffee for Cespedes or Colas to get their feet wet shouldn’t hurt anything.

He had a honeymoon here too didn’t he? Gotta give him credit for doing his part, and being right. I don’t necessarily mind the trade, but make a good trade. Hahn’s major league trades are usually not very impressive.

Some folks seem to be expressing that the offense should be picking up the pitching more, but the team is right about where it should be record wise in terms of ERA Vs team record. Underperformance does not appear to be the issue. This team was overrated by FO and fans alike.

If one is of the winter opinion that the FO had, that this group was already good enough to win the division, that worry seems appropriate. But that opinion was a likely mistake. They are who we didn’t think they were. If the treatment of this roster wasn’t worrying way before the season began, it should have been. Hahn was waaaaay too complacent.

In a way, it makes sense. Getting quicker guys on base at the top that nobody knocks in anyway only teases the city.

It’s difficult to say how careful or carless he is. On one hand he’s pulled Kopech during a no hitter. On the other hand Kopech is being left in under an extremely dubious situation. Guy is spotting dimes and eating onions.

*Riordan update* Seems to have backed off his claims that TLR will not last the season. Now says next season will not be the manager. And that Ethan Katz may be the new manager. His sources are now identified. The mirror image.

At the end of the day, it depends on what the trainers were telling him. We’ll never know. There is a hamstring injury that is also called a knee injury fwiw. Depends on severity.

The planning for this season has to be the most outrageous thing a contender has ever done.

Appreciate the insight

You’re arguing that the Sox have bad luck to explain the season?

Good Luck = walks and homers

The Sox are inefficient
