2024 Gavin Sheets = 2018 Daniel Palka
2007 Josh Fields = 2017/2018 Matt Davidson = 2018 Daniel Palka = 2024 Gavin Sheets He will disappear from baseball quickly like his predecessors.

4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
He isn’t a free agent until 2028, but he’s already 29 years old. I could see the Sox selling high on him at the deadline if he is having a really good first half. He is dirt cheap too so he could have a lot of trade value if he’s pitching well.

And Wilson’s stuff is way better than junkballer Shaw. Throwing Shaw out there with a runner on 2B already with no outs is madness.

2024 Gavin Sheets = 2018 Daniel Palka
At least he’s not playing RF. But I do agree that the hot streak will eventually end and his end of the season numbers will be bad. However, people will look back and remember this hot streak fondly.

Moncada out 3-6 months, Colás recalled
Bob Nightengale just called up his buddy Getzy to let him know that Tommy Pham is still available to save the Sox season.

Fire Pedro Grifol
Once Grifol is fired, will he go the way of other Sox managers and front office personnel to not get another job in baseball?

And his manager making every bad decision possible.

Hang an L on Grifol. Dude pulled Wilson after 7 pitches to have Shaw close it out. What a clown of a manager.

4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
Grifol sat down one of the few good relievers he has in Wilson after only 7 pitches in the previous inning to throw Shaw’s decaying corpse out there.

Wilson threw 7 pitches. WTF?

Maldonado swinging a wiffle bat.

The $75 million dollar man strikes out with a runner on third base and 1 out.

Only the Sox… Yes, only the White Sox.

4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
Grossman and DeJong… awful and stupid veterans.

4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
So the one time a bunt may actually make some sense with the batter that is up, Grifol doesn’t call for it?

Soxtalk owes TLR an apology
Sure seems like the Sox have been trying to disprove that theory with their history of managerial signings.

Moncada out 3-6 months, Colás recalled
He probably will. Should he? No, he’ll be injured again next year. It’s like throwing hundred dollar bills into a wishing well.

Sosa hitting the ball hard. It’s too bad he isn’t playing his natural position but maybe he sticks all year on his own merits and not just because of injuries.

In the minors, Shewmake played 257 games at SS and 72 games at 2B.

4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
That’s a decent tradeoff.

Fire Pedro Grifol
Wow. What an epic douchebag of an owner.
-
4/10 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM CT
He has been bad defensively but Sosa is currently the best option to play 3B and Lopez’s only positive is his glove. Sadly, Grifol has it arranged in the best manner possible amongst the hideous options.

Luis Robert right hip flexor injury
I never said that the prospects from the Cease trade won’t amount to anything. I meant that they weren’t top rated prospects (in the MLB). Robert had better return some prospects in the top 25 in the MLB, not just the #79 (Thorpe).

Yep, and then they die with all that money and their worthless, lazy children inherit it all and spend it. ?

Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
With this team losing their top three offensive players, along with Moncada and Robert’s gloves, rolling out a AAA lineup, likely having only two good starting pitchers, a questionable bullpen, and one of the worst managers in MLB history, I am updating my Spring Training prediction of 62-100 to setting the franchise record for lowest winning percentage, topping the 1932 Sox team that finished 49-102 for a .325 winning percentage. .325 over a 162 game season would be 52-53 wins, which I now believe to be within reach. This will be the worst team in franchise history.
