WhiteSox2023

3 homers for Carpenter. Players always get their firsts against the Sox.

Canario actually turned 25 in the beginning of May but your point remains. I wonder if WE would still give me crap for wanting Canario when we are forced to watch a 29 year old Palacios instead. At least Canario might improve and be around next year.

The hot weather thing is a myth… Evidence — The Sox aren’t hitting home runs. 😏

At this rate, Crapra might get to pitch in this one.

Benintendi just looked like a little leaguer on that deep shot.

And now Schriffen just said that Cannon overthought things trying so hard to focus on his game plan. 🤣

Schriffen: “Always good to see Robert lay off that breaking ball low and out of the zone…” Robert K’s on the very next pitch low and far away. Schriffen: ****crickets****

Yes, I’m booing the TV right now.

Did we ever hear the official story on that? Sure seems like Hahn had Hinch locked up with the Hinch signature press release gaffe. I wonder if Hahn really had Hinch locked up as the next manager until Jerry told him to hire TLR instead?

Hinch is just smirking right now, probably thanking his lucky stars he chose the Tigers.

When it’s warm, this park is only electric for the opposing team.

Nice start, Cannon. Gopherballs galore…

More excuses for Robert…

LOL!!!

Vaughn and Rojas… nearly $10 million in the fire pit.

I read it as the Mets would take on Robert and his salary if the Sox included Sosa.

Agreed, I think the offers during last offseason were one team’s high-end prospect like Arroyo from the Reds for example but Getz wanted more.

Great point. Even if trading him after 2023 wasn’t realistic like @Y2Jimmy0 says, he should have definitely been traded during last offseason. Now, Robert’s value has dropped even lower. Does anything think the offers for Robert during last offseason were worse than they are going to be at the trade deadline? I believe the rumors were that Getz wanted at least two of a team’s top prospects for Robert, but teams were only offering one. Well, good luck even getting one now…

I think that might be what he is getting at. I seem to remember Harold loving Caglianone prior to the 2014 draft.

I never said they should have waited to trade Cease. I was saying that I doubt whatever Getz could have traded Robert for after the 2023 season would have gotten him eviscerated, considering the poor Cease trade hasn’t.

Well, the Cubs didn’t win any WS with a roided up Sosa. TLR won three total WS — one with the Bash Brothers and two with Pujols.

I’m sure this won’t be fun to watch…

I’m not so sure about this. I doubt the return would have been worse than the Cease trade, and Getz is still surviving that one.

Beat me to it. I was wondering the same thing. Tray has more emotional flip flops over this team than Greg.

If only they had traded him after his 2023 season. It’s going to be a brutal pill to swallow knowing to they could have gotten back top prospect(s) had they sold him high rather than nothing but a $2 million dollar buyout.
