  1. I agree that Getz is going to be here so it's a moot point to discussing canning him. 1- Jerry has to keep Tony and himself away from White Sox player development 2- Sign at least 2 of the following UFA's: Pete Alonzo, Gleyber Torres, Alex Bregman, and take a look at Harrison Bader if the price is right. 3- Trade Crochet 4- Trade Robert jr . 5- Buyout Moncada's last year, if they can't sign any free agents then keep him at 3rd 6- Over haul International Scouting 7- Hire Sergio Santos as skipper, find the next Charlie Manuel batting coach out there. 8- Getz brings in an ex-GM of his choosing to assist him so not to get pantsed in trades. No input from Jerry or Tony. 9- Lower ticket prices by 50% 10- MLB enacts an emergency 1 year clause to allow the White to move from the tenth pick in round 1 to the 1st pick of the draft.
  2. My question was answered by seeing a steaming live sports event firsthand. I will be making changes once the Sox season is over.
  3. Get that first career MLB L out of the way
  4. Chet was fun to root for, always hustling and busting his behind in the field and base paths. Sad to see what the strokes have done to his health.
  5. With a new park we could scrape up money with naming rights. Prozac Park or Zoloft Field. Whichever pharmaceutical company wins the naming rights also gets exclusive park distribution during all games. " This call to the bullpen is brought to you by Eli Lilly "
  6. I don't fault Nicky, he is what he is and his value is coming off the bench for baserunning or as a defense replacement.
  7. If I had the money, I would make the new ballpark on the river happen. All that is stopping me is 3 or 4 billion dollars.
  8. Sox fans will be going to AA after this season
  9. 31-100 Is this reality or am I in a coma?
  10. Can I revise my grade I gave Getz for picking up Vargus? I am hoping something clicks with this guy and he performs like the highly rated prospect he once was. Larry Himes at 83 years old could make better decisions than Getz.
  11. Jerry is 88, overweight and smokes cigars. I will outlive him out of spite.
  12. If Edward DeBartollo was allowed to buy the White Sox the franchise would have been transformed into a first class organization.
  13. Reindorf deserves to get called out but for all you younger Sox fans you might not know about Einhorn's disaster. Eddie Einhorn takes it upon himself without GM Roland Hemond's involvement in tossing Doug Drabek in as a player to be named later in a 1986 trade with the Yankees. Hemond was stunned with the absolute stupidity by Eddie but had to keep his mouth shut. Drabek won the Cy Young in 1990 with the Pirates and was a stud from the late 1980's through the mid 1990's. The 1990 White Sox won 94 games with a young up and coming team, adding Drabek to that team would have been special. I wouldn't be surprised if Lip has written articles about this in the past.
  14. Clutch 2 out hitting in the ninth !
  15. You nailed it on McCann. I was in the camp of keeping him, boy was I wrong
  16. Introducing MLB's 2024 All-Overpaid Team | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors | Bleacher Report Benny made the list also they snuck Sassi in there, I forgot about him. Plenty of current White Sox and ex Sox. I don't have any optimism that Getz can figure it out and build a team, but any glimmer of hope will peak my interest.
  17. MLB should allow the Sox games to go 6 innings instead of 9.
  18. Colson isn't putting up the numbers at AAA and is striking out a ton.
  19. This White Sox season would qualify for an "8th Plague" in the Book of Revelation.

    Robert

    MLB can humble the greatest ball players; Robert is getting a taste of it.
  21. I don't know about the players are being lazy, the exception is if you hear they are not putting in the work at rehab with the trainers. Hiring Pedro was a mistake from the get-go and it proved out in the end. Seeing Grady at the helm I believe that he has the players best interest at heart and they are buying in.
  22. I am loving it, Crochet and Robert kicking butt and taking names again.
