I remember this. One dude failed at both baseball and WWE… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rinku_Singh_(baseball)

Bill Swerski’s Southside Superfans.

Rock sent down to work on a film with Stone Pony.

SNL will bring back Da Bears skit for Da Sox. Chicago Poleesh accents. Gonna get cringy…

Are you sure that isn’t downtown Minneapolis? 🤣

If my son had chosen soccer over football, I would have disowned him. Joking… I just wouldn’t have gone to see any of his games. Probably not joking… I watched World Cup last night but I can’t imagine watching soccer at a lower level over American football.

You don’t bench a dude with an .800 OPS with speed and the ability to mind f*** the opposing team.

I think your assessment is correct. We aren’t going to be happy with the cost of a guy like Chapman. I’d rather trade some scrub prospects for some decent rental relievers, but not a top guy like Chapman. Trading away the future, even Gonzalez, isn’t worth the slim chance that this team goes deep in the postseason… which it won’t anyways because they don’t have the starters needed. I agree with WE and Cali’s opinion here. This is the natural progression of a rebuilding team, and they have jump-started it earlier than expected. I don’t think they are ready yet, but they look to be getting there. I wouldn’t trade anyone that could help them in the near future to chase a postseason dream for this year. This team is still so young. The lineup looks good. The problem is that they still don’t have a good enough rotation, and I have zero hopes that Jerry will spend on one until Ishbia takes over. And you need to sign some FA starting pitching at some point to bolster a championship rotation.

Nothing wrong with that thought at all. And there are even more variables. Will Mune even be here still after 2027 once Roch is ready? Maybe not. Maybe Vargas is playing 1B after next season? Even if you are a Getz hater, you can’t argue that he hasn’t acquired players with positional flexibility unlike Hahn who loved acquiring positionless turnstile DH’s.

Once again — not in the SoxTalk forum? 🤣🤣🤣

Any sort of bias ruins your company’s credibility, regardless of the topic. This isn’t that difficult to understand.

I am literally watching the World Cup Turkey / USA game right now and it has f***-ALL to do with this SoxTalk forum that you posted this thread in. Neither does CNN or the NY Times opinion on anything.

This isn’t that difficult — AP and Reuters. Stay away from CNN, MSNBC, FOX News, NY Times, etc. You seem to know the usual suspects so why are you acting surprised?

I wouldn’t waste the effort to turn on my VPN for CommieNN. You shared a link that not everyone could even view without a paid option. Your mistake, not mine. A Cubs/Mets game is far more interesting than this bullshit post. Even you know this.

Wuhan boy, I tried to play the video at your link and it asked me to pay to watch it. I wouldn’t pay to watch any news you sourced whether it was provided by commie CNN or commie Chy-Nuh. I can get CNN for free via live streams but they would have to pay me to watch that crap. There’s a reason their profits are declining fast as f***. No one gives a f*** about CNN anymore but you.

His first link doesn’t even work, unless you subscribe. This is likely just another one of the Wuhan kid’s posts being placed in the wrong forum. I have never been a hater and even defended him numerous times, but you would think @caulfield12 would get it by now why he’s the site’s whipping boy. He fucking asks for it.

I hope you aren’t responding to my post above. I thought it was completely reasonable.

I rolled my eyes at first once he said “we’re young” but he redeemed himself when he joked about “playing with kids.” 👴🏻

You are 100 % right. But we all have visions of the perfect starting lineup in which it’s like MLB The Show with injuries turned off and you can have Antonacci’s better bat at 2B and add a power bat in LF for 162 games a year. 🤣

Iguchi really wasn’t that great outside of the WS year in 2005. We just remember him as better than he was because of the WS and that it had been such a long drought at 2B. Ray Ray owned Iguchi.

The only types of trades that would make sense is if they: 1.) Trade mediocre to nothing prospects for a meh rental starter. 2.) Trade Jacob Gonzalez and lesser prospects for a youngish starter with additional years of control. #2 is probably a stretch and expecting too much.

I thought both brothers were involved, including their father as well. They both invested in a minority stake in the White Sox back in 2021. https://www.sportico.com/business/team-sales/2025/mat-justin-ishbia-white-sox-stake-twins-1234823444/ Perhaps Mat will continue to oversee the Suns and Justin will handle the White Sox, but It’s more than likely just going to be a big pool of their family money regardless.

I’m sure someone here will have a better answer but Google AI responded with the following:
