THIS!!!

Again...to each his own...but to me Scriffen's "passion" seemed incredibly forced...and intentionally theatric! Benetti's excitement seemed genuine to me...showed it when it was real! Agree though...he ain't coming back which makes me look forward to Sox TV again!

If this vision/version of legislation/discussion seals the deal...I wonder how much or what would be different from what was being discussed the past couple of years??

Wow...interesting! But also exhausting...get it done one way or the other! (personally much prefer it be in IL)

I don't have a subscription...does Chicago mean the city? Or is he lumping AH with Chicago?

I think you are right...he stays here. But as for speculation...it feels like it is becoming a Joe Borchard situation although Colson has contributed more that Joe B did so far. And when we needed to give Joe B a change of scenery we ended up with Matt Thornton I think...which was alright. I would hope Colson would get more of a return than Matt Thornton though.

This is true! But it was also celebrated! People loved it! They were laughing with him...

To each his own...but I love Benetti! Miss him! In fact I have watched a lot of Tigers games the past two seasons simply because he calls their games. In my view...no one better. Different styles are good...the Padres booth is great...Benetti is great! The White Sox booth...ugh...

Don't tease me!! 😁

Yeah...agree with this...like it or not...Ishbia is leaving 35th & Shields! He is not going to create an entertainment center in that neighborhood. Alderman Lee ought to be out there promoting a vision of what she sees/hopes for this neighborhood. All she is doing now is yelling "no" which is not leadership (and might not work anyway)!

Agreed...but it involves creating a situation where Antonacci is at 2B. And that will have ripple effects which could really change the dynamics of this team! Which is good...

I feel Braden got rushed...but held his own to the point he should still be in the plans...but he certainly has to improve!

Joe Kelly always thought he was by far the smartest guy in the room...and had some wonderfully entertaining moments in his career...but by the end he seemed to phone it in! Liam H was a guy I would want on my team!

Liam Hendricks seems like a damn good guy...and fun! And fearless! Not perfect on the mound but balled out! Still can't figure out why guys like Kelly and Graverman didn't like him? If those rumors are true?

There will be games everyday though...right? I mean...this plan isn't suggesting that every team will be off on every Thursday (or something like that) is it?

I understand and respect your positions...but a contending team at the deadline should worry about a "small sample size"! Winning means you worry about NOW! The STRETCH! I get you don't want to do something stupid...but Cleveland made additions with the stretch in mind! For some reason we made additions thinking that Luis Castillo will have some sort of value to us in that stretch AND next year! Doyle as well...in a normal off-season...do the White Sox even offer Doyle a contract/arbitration?? There is NO DOUBT Cleveland's front office was much more successful than the White Sox front office was!

As I said...I hope he hits 4 HRs tonight! Just odd that this is who we are relying upon in the 5th slot...I want to be very wrong!

I hope so...I hope he hits 4!!!

93 was the Jays...

Our DH is a veteran guy that could not find a MLB job until September? I like Venable...but hmmm...

Maybe it has been said already in this thread or elsewhere...day games should be "white-outs" and night games should be the "black-outs". I thought it looked odd yesterday...but the blackouts of past at night looked good!

I don't get the continued use of the word "arrogant"??? What is arrogant about it? Most would describe Ishbia's vision as "progress"!

I don't think anyone here thinks a new owner will translate into immediate success just because...most are happy for a new approach because JR's approach has grown stale and very tiresome!
