KW/Hahn - They Gone
Good. This team is despicably bad. Thank goodness they have been shown the door. Their performance in building this rotten team is unprecedented. Every move they've made just about is horrific. Trading Burger alone is fire-worthy plus so many other things. Team needs a new manager NOW as well. Team needs a good GM. This team is so bad it's like an expansion franchise right now. Good luck to whatever GM comes aboard. I'd say this team won't sniff .500 for five years minimum prolly longer.

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
That says so much. Pitcher says to himself, 'Worst lineup I've ever faced. I'll just extend the arm and throw fastballs.'

Hey, there's also a game tonight gamethread. Mariners @ White Sox 7:10
Season from hell continues. Pedro must be so proud of the effort his guys give.

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
It's tough to be so negative. But our team is so bad. Manager. Players. Front office. Only 1 or 2 players worth following. Ugh.

8/21- Sox vs Mariners, 7:10, FS1
Nice job Pedro. You've done so well with this team. Nice job, Hahn. You have rocks for brains IMO, trading the only player we truly enjoy watching (albeit it is annoying when he strikes out). OK, Robert is pretty likeable.

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
You make some good points. I don't think fans will mind the dome. They realize it HAS to be indoor baseball. nobody wants to sit in 100 degree temps. So they'll accept the dome. I will say I've been to minor league games at the old Cashman Field before they built a new one. About 9;30 p.m. near the end of the game it'd be very pleasant. Vegas being Vegas maybe they could have 9 p.m. starts and make it a thing. That way no dome.

Lori gets the blame for the Bears. Nothing to do with Johnson. At least that's my take.

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
First a lighthearted reaction then my anger. ... How bout we turn G Rate Field into a soccer stadium? I hate soccer but it's very popular now and get a good team and I bet they'd draw 30,000 a night. Refigure G Rate. Keep some Sox stuff around on the facade. Meanwhile, the Sox share Wrigley with the Cubs! Everybody seemingly loves Wrigley. Remodel it some more. In fact completely switch the inner portions of the stadium to a normal bowl without pillars and Sox and Cubs share the field. I think this is genius personally. Sox fans only go to Sox games; let the Cubs have their usual Wrigley sellout crowds and the Sox take what they can get. If they have a good team they'll sell it out. Now for ANGER. Reinsdorf said in the past he used threat of moving as leverage before. So we can't take anything he'll say or do seriously. If he wants to move 'em to Naperville or Arlington, go for it. We know the next Sox park WILL NOT be on 35th and Shields, folks. That ship has sailed. Do I care if the Sox move? Well personally I hardly ever return to the city anymore (for reasons I used to talk about) so selfishly I should not care. Move 'em to Vegas. ... But yeah I guess I want them to stay in Windy City despite my total anger at the state of a once proud, yes proud, franchise. This season was an absolute atrocity, a disgrace, a total flop. I'm sick to my stomach over this White Sox franchise. Disgusting team that has no clue how to build a roster in this new-age of baseball. No pitching and no lift and pulling cept for Robert.

Saturday Night in Denver Game Thread
That reminds me of my dad not letting me be a caddy in high school and grade school when all my friends were doing it at Ridge CC. He said 'you could get hit with a golf ball and they are offering no insurance." None of my friends got clipped with errant golf shots. addendum; I'm glad he wouldn't let me. My friends hated being caddies.

Saturday Night in Denver Game Thread
Thanks Lip Man. Makes no sense though unless they are worried about current White Sox players getting hurt while watching the Old Timers game. Injury at a Fathers vs Sons and Daughters game seems quite remote, geez, unless it's hereditary and the poor kids pull their hammys running during the game.
-
Saturday Night in Denver Game Thread
Yeah, the current players are just the wrong mix. Nobody likeable except maybe Robert. Maybe Sox do need to overpay for Salvy Perez just to start turning around the clubhouse. They should have an oldtimers game. I would go to that to see some of the actual Sox who are likeable.

"Sell the Team Jerry" Game August 24th
I think this night is a bad idea. Negative karma. I will say this though. I've been thinking about it. The record of the team might not be quite as bad as some Sox teams but I truly think this is the worst "team" in Sox history. There are no pitching highlights and it's not all the Sox fault. You can't go more than 6 innings nowadays which mean Sox starters are all blah. Who cares? Relievers on the team all pretty much reek. Moncada is a pretty good fielder, nobody else except maybe Robert. Hitting? It's Robert and nobody else. Team intangibles? None. The guys don't seem to care or play with any passion. That adds up to a very very unlikeable team. I'll stand by my statement. Personally it's the worst team in Sox history. For hyperbole sake I guess I'll say it's one of the 3 worst teams in Chicago White Sox history. Congrats Jerry.

What I do miss about the last three years of the Ozzie era…
I miss everything about Ozzie. He bleeds White Sox. Who cares if he left the team with a week and a half to go? He was getting replaced and everybody knew it. Me loves Ozzie. Could greg be the biggest Ozzie fan on this site?

So the Sox can draft the next Andrew Vaughn? He was third overall, lol.

Sox losing 9-5. Another embarrassing loss. Pitching staff blows along with an anemic lineup cept for Robert.

Fire Rick Hahn
Hahn is a disgrace. Burger is so hot right now. Sickening. Fantasy Advice (from yahoo): Burger has now hit safely in eight straight games, going 14-for-32 (.438) in that span. He's only hit one homer since joining Miami at the trade deadline, but he's now batting .340 (18-for-53) with an .888 OPS through 14 contests with his new team. Overall, the 27-year-old Burger is slashing .233/.297/.522 with 26 homers, 60 RBI and 50 runs scored through 381 plate appearances between the Marlins and White Sox.

7:40 PM CDT Chicago White Sox @ Colorado Rockies TV: NBCSCH Radio: WMVP AM 1000
No reason to pencil the Sox into one's budget. Maybe go to one game for the corned beef sandwich. Why'd u go with 'new Comiskey' in your sentence? Is it gonna change names (I hope)?

7:40 PM CDT Chicago White Sox @ Colorado Rockies TV: NBCSCH Radio: WMVP AM 1000
One of the worst losses of the season, maybe the worst. A terrible team annihilates the Sox who muster four hits. What a joke of a team, organization. Remains one of the worst seasons in all our lifetimes because of the lack of effort and lack of having a clue in all regards.

"Hawk" Speaks...
Man the Sox have been horsebleep since Hawk left. He has to be pleased he's not broadcasting this ridiculously bad team. Obviously he misses the easy cash tho.

Thief steals car from White Sox star’s girlfriend near Wrigley Field
Holy cow, just read this. Can't give my take. Too passionate and I'll get in trouble here I would think. Peace out. Be safe. Enjoy life especially the rest of the summer/fall.

8/16 Game Thread: White Sox @ Cubs 7:05CT
Well Madrigal homers then Santos gives up the game winner. Six measley hits. Yeah our Sox blow chunks. No way we were gonna beat a .500ish team 2 nights in a row. and split the season series.

8/15/23 - White Sox over Cubs 5-3, you can put it on the board, YES!!!
Nice win. Robert can hit. Boom what a shot to LF. Looks like team has a closer. He's pretty nasty.

Burger To Marlins
Don't all the Sox have bad K to BB rates? He was built for the Cell. Sad to trade him. Ridiculous in fact.

8/13 White Sox vs Brewers, 1:10 PM CT
How pathetic. How neighborly of the Sox to get swept by the Brewers. Team is a disgrace. 0-5 in recent games against neighbor Cubs and Brewers. No pride. No nothing. No accountability. Cut your losses and at least fire Pedro. Please?
