Twins @ White Sox 6th May 2018 Game Thread
It's not supposed to. We are supposed to lose. Team wants to lose for top draft pick.

Twins @ White Sox 6th May 2018 Game Thread
Sox are what the doctor ordered for the lousy Twins. They should have won all 4 games as I predicted. Sox have an abysmal ballclub. Good fans though. Big crowd.

Trust the process
As a regular attendee I thought I'd ask. Do you mind the high prices while watching that crap? Or are you OK with it all?

To be fair, it's all about Hawk right now. Hawk would be crabby with Wimpy on a regular basis, too. I think Stone is really good.

I still say it would be tough to hit and be a professional hitter when the team is this bad. Unless it's been thoroughly explained to players: "Look guys we know we will have one of the worst seasons in Sox history, but that's OK. We want you to approach each at bat like it's the WS." I'd think that'd be tough to do but I guess the Cub hitters maintained focus when they sucked and the Astro hitters too. So maybe I'm wrong.

He needs to go. The first one to get the heave ho. Tonight's lineup blows by the way.

Nor should there be any fans. Look, this product costs MONEY for fans to watch. If a mom and dad take 2 kids, those kids want to drink those 10 dollar cokes and have 10 dollar cotton candy. And dad wants a 10 dollar beer and mom a 9 dollar hot dog. The fans will return when we get good. Until then, they can't expect anybody to come watch this crap.

The right owner buying this team would add a lot of excitement/hope to the south side. Jerry gave us one title; wish he'd sell to somebody with lotsa cash willing to spend it feverishly.

2018 White Sox catch-all thread
No Tray, any suggestion of bringing up prospects is met with pure disdain on this site. Nope. Nobody wants to see any of the core rebuild guys for some time to come.

At least Santiago is a big league caliber pitcher unlike most of the guys on our staff. Doesn't mean he'll win, but he's a legit big leaguer for sure.

They love him because we are rebuilding. Rebuilding is fun. No pressure on a fan. We can lose, lose lose and when Cub fans mock the Sox, we can say, "Hey we WANT to lose. We want to get the best draft picks we can." This rebuild stuff has made Hahn so popular. Benetti said on a podcast Hahn was the most popular person at Soxfest. Fans were just simply worshiping him. The Hahn lovefest will continue forever. If the Sox in 2020 suck they can just say the rebuild is taking longer than we thought. Plus the key players in the rebuild have all the time in the world to get good. Nobody better criticize our young guys until their fifth season in the bigs. Even then I'd bet people will not criticize the key pieces of our rebuild if they are struggling. My point? Hahn should be walking on eggshells and he's not. He's one of the most popular peeps in modern White Sox history.

Sox lineup blows. How big a crowd to see that lousy game?

Trust the process
I thought the White Sox were making money, tons of money. Another aspect of the modern era of baseball is fans hate seeing their teams spend money. This is a strange new world. Fans love losing. Fans don't want the owners to spend any cash.

I hope there's severe backlash if the Sox trade Abreu. There's absolutely no reason for it. The rebuild is moving along. Trading him for prospects would be quite stupid when he'd be a veteran presence needed to win anything of significance. If they trade Abreu that's just a disgusting thought is all I can say. I guess there are rebuild fanatics who would love such a trade but it sickens me.

You won't like this: my eye test doesn't flatter Delmonico and is undecided on Trayce.

Moustakas makes too much sense. He's cheap and we need that lefty power bat in the Cell. 40 million for four years. Just do it.

Don't shoot the messenger. But is there any chance Bernie could be presidential candidate in 2020? I hope he keeps his health. After all of this bullshit in America I'm ready for all his socialistic stuff like free education and free health care, etc. Why is Greg mad? Have you tried to get your insurance to pay for anything lately? So my buddy gets dental insurance at work. He goes in for $1600 of work. They come back and will pay zero. They said what he did is elective/cosmetic or something. Uh no!! His fucking tooth hurt. I just had 200 bucks of work done. Am very interested in seeing how much they pay and what their excuse is. My tooth hurt and they filled it, Mr. Insurance Man!!!! Pay it!!! Bernie, please run. I want free health care!!!

I'm gonna be coming home in May to visit my mom. What's my best bet for INCREDIBLE seats at 10 bucks or less? How much would those golden seats behind the plate cost greg?

I love how Matt's improvement in advanced stat numbers for the advanced stat people has raised his popularity on this board. Greg deserves mucho credit for last year standing by Matt when you all were blasting him!!! My eye test is as good as your advanced stats, folks. It just is.

That Yolmer thing may be the funniest thing I've ever seen. That should be No. 1 on sportscenter. That's precious. Nobody has EVER done that. b.) Wimpy looks great. Wow. Full head of hair, looking spry. Give him a job, white sox! Wimperoo forever. Sox beat Twins, awesome.

I love you Trayce. That is talent, folks. He went down and just slugged it. Now the Twins can go cry about how the Sox celebrated ... not.
