Fine, I’ll do it (Game Thread 4/10)
There's no question this lineup is actually worse than last year's. If Beni's not healthy and we get only single digit homers from him and Vaughn only hits 15ish homers certainly this team will have less HR power than any team in Sox annals.

When will MLB Step In?
Good post. As some long timers on here know, I used to freak out on a daily basis if and when we lost the game, any game. Even meaningless September games. i wanted ALL wins. Now (it's not my fault, it's Jerry's conditioning me this way) I expect to lose every single game, kind of in some weird way want to lose every single game. It's strange psychology but I'm thinking after an organization/team finally loses a person (the person is convinced the organization is utter trash and has no ability to turn things around) the brain expects defeat and welcomes defeat. Weird I know but I can't be the only longtime Sox fan who is so jaded he/she kind of likes when we lose now.

4/9 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
Aside from last year is this the Sox worst start in history? It's tough to lose this many games in April. Usually it takes a bit for bad teams' record to become rotten.

Alexander Canario
I also would have loved to have Candelaria. At least he's interesting. I want Burger, Candelaria and VIciedo and that other fan favorite guy, Colas, in my lineup. Why not?

When will MLB Step In?
That's what greg was saying last year. At least contract our team. We then could get a new team in Chicago under new owners. There should be contraction. We are not trying to win in the (once) greatest city in the world. With our gorgeous hats and cool jersey tops we would be THE team in Chicago if we tried to field a winning team. The Cubs have stunk since their one great year. The city is there for the taking for the Sox and their trendy beautiful hats and jerseys. Nobody wants to wear Cubby bear jerseys and hats. The Sox should have owned Chicago starting in 2006. Instead .... Please contract the White Sox. End this misery.

Wow what is wrong with Beni?

4/9 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
Ptatc: Serious question. If you worked for the Sox and were in the dugout would you have demanded our new skipper pinch run for him in the 9th? Knowing his injury, etc? This is malpractice IMO of the White Sox.

4/9 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
This is the post of the year. Seriously ... how could there not be a pinch runner unless we were actively trying to lose again. How could there not be a pinch runner? Tauchmann should be incensed.

I can't wait to see the replay? I don't get the games this year.

Is Tauchman the answer? He's hitting .400.

Resilient White Sox/AL Central Attendance, somehow up 1.8% YoY for first 21 home dates
Has Detroit been totally rebuilt? I never knew it was a nirvana-ish town.

Barfield on rebuild...
Sox need to trade Montgomery since it looks like he's not developing well with the Sox.

Arlington Heights making stadium pitch to White Sox?
From what I've heard about Chicago, city leaders right now don't deserve two teams. Moving to Arlington Heights with the Bears would be amazing. Build two incredible stadiums, put up an amazing practice facility for the Bears and some Sox themed bars and restaurants. Make it a huge deal like the Cowboys in their complex.

Korey Lee not traded | GOAT James Bond: ?
That was so funny. I died laughing. I love when she said in the accent, 'tank you.' And when Marty Feldman was asked about the 'bags' I passed out.

Rats. We lose.

4/6 Sox @ Tigers 12:40PM CT
The Sox don't stink anymore. Can we hold on and win?

Korey Lee not traded | GOAT James Bond: ?
I've not watched one Bond movie. I this week did watch Young Frankenstein though and loved it. My gawd what subtle humor.
-
Korey Lee not traded | GOAT James Bond: ?
Yeah. I've been watching the game highlights and checking the box scores but still am not an expert on our lineup/roster. Too many new guys.
-
Korey Lee not traded | GOAT James Bond: ?
Lame April Fools joke. As somebody who knows little about our team I thought 'Wow we have so many catchers we shipped one.' Then I saw Lee bashed that double yesterday and realized it prolly was a dumb joke. April Fools Day has gladly passed. Hate it.

4/5 Game Thread Sox @ Tigers 1200 pm
Reality has to be soon hitting the new manager. He signed up for this. Hope he realizes there's pretty much nothing he can do to avoid last place and 100 plus losses and all that is White Sox. No need to stress over this bunch. At least this year it seems like the lineup is capable of 7 or 8 hits a game.

4/5 Game Thread Sox @ Tigers 1200 pm
Uh oh. 2-6 is close to a horrible start. Will our skipper set the tone early and freak out after this one?

4/4 - Sox @ Tigers, 12:10 CDT - Cannon v. Flaherty
I don't know how to link social media site X but it's all over there. They interviewed people who said if you denied giving the 40 they flattened tires, etc. The cash was just to get off the Ryan exit. Pretty intense stuff. They had some video. The 40 bucks was like a toll to be allowed to get near the parking lots. Cops came on one video and the thugs scattered. If it's true it's just another reason for fans not to venture to any games with a team this rotten.

4/4 - Sox @ Tigers, 12:10 CDT - Cannon v. Flaherty
Did you guys see that item on Twitter (X) on some group of thugs charging 40 bucks a car as u exited the dan ryan? They better get that in check before people get scared. Not sure how old the Tweet was but the gist was guys who looked like parking attendants were demanding 40 bucks a car.
