I was driving to Topeka and listened to Limbaugh today for the first time in a while. I listed to a couple segments in between listening to Sirius' Beatles Channel and Christian music radio so don't act like I am Limbaugh-nik or addict. He blamed the Demos and media for this mess saying Trump had nothing to do with the separation of kids from their parents. He said it was the law and Congress had to change the law. He said he is sick at the left's doing all they can day after day to blame Trump for everything. Is this all true? They also played an interview of Baldwin with a border patrol guy who said they have been taking care of 12 year old kids who have been sent to the USA alone despite the fact parents of these kids know the kids will be assaulted sexually. It was pretty riveting, sad, sick stuff.

Neither are good, but Tilson is not out of baseball yet. Engel is as bad as Trayce; both will fill 2/3s of an independent league OF soon. No offense to them. They may be great guys but Trayce and Engel are done and Tilson is on life support so to speak, but not done yet.

We are a 48, 49 win team IMO. You wait. That's our win total this season. I stand by that but NO WAY are we winning more than 53 games. And we won't win that many.

Girardi will be our manager next season (provided he has no ghosts; I know nothing about his personal life, etc.)

I'm on the record saying if we DONT get a top end or 2 player for Abreu that Hahn should be fired on the spot. He's as proven a player as you can acquire and he has 5-6 good to great years left. My gawd. Devalue your own some more.

Man you guys devalue Abreu. Have you looked at his career stats? The guy is an all star and more than that a good clubhouse guy, too. He's a fricking stud. He will bring a ton back. For the record, greg DOES NOT want to trade him, I've just accepted that he gawn.

There are a lot of guys who probably don't realize it, but are close to being done in MLB forever who play for the Sox. Engel, Thompson, Omar for starters. There are more.

Only if chisox fan does it first. He said in his post he's said it "time and again" as well.

Should be interesting but it's pretty obvious Hahn thinks Abreu is too old for the window. Case closed. He gawn. Relax, it's just greg's opinion. I'm not saying I'm always right. But I really feel this is WAY too obvious. We need some more pitching and we still need a catcher and maybe a shortstop. Let's assume they got it right on our future outfield and we have plenty of DHs. We can move Davidson to first to be the new Paulie.

Royals fans are in nirvana today, lol. They acquired three guys nobody's ever heard of (the future unknowns) for their closer. They now are embracing the suck as Sox fans have done. They are comparing it to when they got Cain and Escobar. Ah, how great a job it is to be a GM nowadays. Losing is beloved!

Exactly. It's the reason a rebuild frustrates some traditional baseball fans. Time means nothing. It's wait til next year year after year if you have to. As long as you are in "rebuild mode" GMs are heroes and nobody has to produce for people to be happy. Soxfest will be just as happy this winter as it was last winter. Cause we are in rebuild mode and results mean nothing. Eventually so many prospects will be on the MLB team that everybody will be so happy tracking their advanced stats. Maybe the team eventually will start winning but for now Sox fans are the old Cub fans, "Wait til next year" is such a happy mantra for many fans. Hopefully in this dream world the Sox will win 2-4 WS titles and remain great for years after that as they keep their players. All skeptical fans like me can do is wait and hope for the best because I don't follow minor league baseball and don't really care about development. I prefer the big league product.

Could we impeach Trump for his treatment of those innocent kids? If we all staged nationwide sit ins or something could we force him to resign? Talk of him winning the Nobel Peace Prize should be tossed into the dumpster. Save those babies!

I wonder if Trayce can take up another sport or if it's too late. ... Independent League here he comes?

You wear a Sox sweater? Can we see it? Cool.

Now do you agree with Greg that we win 48 49 games?? We're back in the dumpster which I expected.

Is Coop as good coaching these tall pitchers as well as he succeeds with normal sized pitchers? Gio is 6-6 and how many of those guys have problems?

It amazes me how some people won't criticize the guys we got in the trades. We have the right to blast them and question Hahn until they start producing. These guys are all making good money, produce.

Now we know RR is gone. He won't be manager next season unless we're expected to lose 110 games again.

I'm thinking Trayce will be DFA'ed soon. Poor guy is gonna have to play Independent League soon or enter the real world. Just another guy who can't hit a baseball. Tough sport.

Damn. Relievers need to throw strikes Minaya.

The umpire thing was the greatest moment. Hawk made national news with that rant. I loved it. I loved his work. He and Wimpy and Stoney, good stuff.

Interesting. Thanks for the report on Lopez's game tonite.

Looks like Lopez gave up nine hits; how did he pitch? Only 3 runs.

please calm down about Moncada. When it matters, he will hit. Until then I bet he's .230-.250 with some incredible games, some lousy. From what I've read he isn't the greatest competitor. When a team is this bad, yes he'll lose focus on occasion. He'll hit when we get good, folks. He'll hit some before then too.

No they wouldn't replace him. Hahn is beloved cause we want to lose, remember?
