  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Sox fans will be going to AA after this season
  4. 31-100 Is this reality or am I in a coma?
  5. 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.
  6. Jerry is 88, overweight and smokes cigars. I will outlive him out of spite.
  7. If Edward DeBartollo was allowed to buy the White Sox the franchise would have been transformed into a first class organization.
  8. Eddie was the brains behind SportsVision
  9. 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.
  10. Clutch 2 out hitting in the ninth !
  11. You nailed it on McCann. I was in the camp of keeping him, boy was I wrong
  12. 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.
  13. MLB should allow the Sox games to go 6 innings instead of 9.
  14. Colson isn't putting up the numbers at AAA and is striking out a ton.
  15. This White Sox season would qualify for an "8th Plague" in the Book of Revelation.

    MLB can humble the greatest ball players; Robert is getting a taste of it.
  17. 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.
  18. I am loving it, Crochet and Robert kicking butt and taking names again.
  19. I have a glimmer of hope for some development with Grady even if he's in place just for the rest of the season. As a fan my heart is pulling for Sizemore to get the manager's job in 2025, but we have been down this road before. An experienced manager is what is needed for this train wreck of a franchise, but if they are considering hiring a stiff, I would advocate for keeping Grady.
  20. That was the first thing I thought when I heard of this. I would rather see MLB play around setting up a rule where pitchers are designated as either starters or relievers, so the "bullpen" start is eliminated.
  21. With the Marlins making changes in the Front Office / Scouting, could the Sox pick up some Scouting help? Marlins make 'stunning' changes, firing multiple front office execs and scouts | Sporting News
  22. Every time Burger gets a hit my brother-in-law informs me, Jake was one of his favs.
  23. 11 walks, 2 errors, 2 men thrown out at home plate against the 2nd highest run scoring team in MLB. 18 hits and 12 runs can cover up some bad baseball, woohoo !!
