Torborg documentary...
Jeff Torborg was respected and liked by everyone; I wish the Sox would have held on to him.

Grant Taylor set to join White Sox in HOU
I really enjoy reading on the board the different perspectives on how to handle Grant Taylor's role. Brian Bannister has proven to be astute in the development of pitching; he has earned my trust 100%.
-
Montgomery next?...
I agree with you, kind of no harm no foul.
-
Montgomery next?...
If they do bring up Montgomery, I am assuming he will play SS? With Robert jr. traded and Vaughn in purgatory I was looking at possible defensive positioning options. 1B: Elko/Vargas/Sosa 2B: Meidroth/Sosa/Baldwin SS: Montgomery/Meidroth/Baldwin 3B: Vargas/Sosa/Baldwin Catcher: Teel/Quero DH: Teel/Quero/Benintendi LF: Benintendi/Taylor/Baldwin CF: Taylor/Baldwin RF: Tauchman/Taylor/Baldwin Reserves: Rojas/Slater/Palacios

Latest Vaughn news...
Hopefully additional young pitching can come up and help the club. Grant Taylor as a closer could be an answer to a glaring need.
-
Latest Vaughn news...
I really am liking the infusion of youth to the club, Baldwin would fit right in. I don't think AV or Robert will be part of the future.

Ishbia taking control by 2029?
Who is NNB ?

Thank God for the Rockies
I really like what we have down in the minors and am pleasantly surprised just how solid Meidroth and Q have been. Vargas has been outstanding the last month and our starting pitching has been good. I am a White Sox fanatic and love the team, but I welcome any diehard Sox fan on this board with positive or negative comments. It has been a very trying and frustrating last couple of years but baby were back !!

Arlington Heights making stadium pitch to White Sox?
My uncle had Bears season tickets in the early 60's. I seem to recall he said the 1963 season tickets were either $28 or $35. He did go to the Championship game against NY but had standing only tickets.

And that's a 9-4 White Sox winner!
They would have to go 47-59 to hit 65 wins, I would welcome that! I agree the club is more competitive, keep it going.

Matt Thaiss traded to TB for OF Dru Baker
I will take it, Elko works for me.

Matt Thaiss traded to TB for OF Dru Baker
Hopefully Lee can add some power, this club needs to launch more homers.

What's the bullpen solution (knowing JR will never spend here)...?
I don't know what Pallette's status is currently, but his numbers look good, bring him up, he can't do any worse than Boozer.

What's the bullpen solution (knowing JR will never spend here)...?
Could the Sox develop a closer similar how Liam Hendricks morphed from a failed starter to the bullpen and then eventually the closer role?

OMG THEY ACTUALLY SENT VAUGHN TO CHARLOTTE
I know, pump the brakes, it's way too early but: Colson Montgomery last 7 days .400/.478/1.328 with 2 hrs. Hopefully Vaughn can be viable when he comes back.

Sox now Colas free zone
I am right there with you; I was so pumped up when the Sox signed him.

Sox Claim P Mike Vasil
For the most part Vasil has been solid in his role, one of the few bright spots in the bullpen.

Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
How about 2 for 2 trade, Robert and Vaughn to the Reds for TJ Friedl and Chase Petty
-
And that's a no doubt upsetting to some bettors WHITE SOX 1-0 WINNER
I didn't see a win coming but more please.
-
Vargas last 28 games
.321/.400/.971 5 hr 13 rbi Is it to soon to get stoked up?

Rick Hahn talks rebuild and collapse
I don't see a GM role coming Hahn's way, but he could add value to a club dealing with contracts and extensions.
-
White Sox reportedly trade w/HOU for Miguel Castro
JR, "Getz you're killing me with these cash deals." Besides being tall, it looks like Castro has serious control issues. It is hard to watch a bullpen guy come in and start walking people.

Pete Rose, Shoeless Joe, and other Black Sox members removed from MLB permanently banned list
I was at Moose Skowron's wake and the White Sox and Yankee organizations are first class, much respect and love. My thoughts on lifting the ban on Pete Rose cheapens the whole aura of the HoF.

H. Reynolds to B. Montgomery "You'll be in the big leagues this year"
Way to early but projecting ahead, Braden Montgomery RF, Q catching, Meidroth 2nd base, and Vargas 3rd base. Should Teel be getting moved to 1st base now in the minors?

Old Saying.
2025 we got a Pope, 2026 we add some bats, it's game on.
