Eloy pulled a hammy reaching for a bag of almonds from the flight attendant on the plane to Baltimore, 5-6 weeks rehab needed.

Excellent article, Smith is a stud

Another thing that needs to be addressed is International Scouting. I read James Fox post at X but I can't find it now but he had some excellent points as usual. if JR is going to cry poor, then he needs to bring in young International free agents and develop them.

MLB places the Chicago White Sox in Receivership and names southsider2K5 as Trustee

The obvious: Getz didn't have any leverage dealing Crochet after the extension comments. You have to make the best of the situation moving forward. What I would like to see happen is Getz extends Crochet or trade him in the spring. How about Sox give him 3 years at $65 million with a team option on 2028? Crochet will have his security and a free agent at 30 years old for one more contract.

I agree with just about everything but would add to fire Pedro ASAP. Also bring up some bullpen arms, this is beyond ridiculous. Let's see what Vargas can do playing every day. Sosa would be an All Star with his away splits, see if he can hit at Sox Park

We get our first a look at Vargus. Fletcher in left, no Benny , ( please be a delayed trade LOL)

A -Signing and flipping Fedde & Pham, moving on from Kopech - (2) - 19-year-old solid bats, (Perez was in future games), 24-year-old solid bat and in the lineup tonight C- signing and flipping DeJong - 22 right-handed reliever C - trading Banks - 19-year-old middle infielder, who knows B- moving on from Eloy - a bag of balls would have been enough, 26-year-old left reliever A - Not trading Crochet- can be extended or traded in the spring with 29 teams interested A - Not trading Robert - can be a long-term CF

Back in the day the Kansas City Athletics got labeled as being the Yankees farm system.

TLR will get the Sox all squared away and then become a consultant for CrowdStrike.

That would be awesome, get him in the lineup and let him play.

I did the same thing, I actually thought hey maybe the Sox might win a game I also had the same thoughts this morning about how this franchise survives in Chicago. I read White Sox Dave at Barstool say that JR wants to cut $30 million from the payroll because of loss of revenues. It's sad but like you point out new ownership could be the answer, it could also be the end if they move the club. After 5:00 o'clock today I hope the Sox are giving playing time to youngsters. For Pete's sake release the slugs in the bullpen if they can't trade them.

Edman hasn't played a game all year @ $7 million, he is owed $9.5 million in 2025 and then is a free agent.

Are Albertus and Perez high ranking prospects?

Head scratcher ? is this a salary dump?

If Pedro was replaced by Siri or Alexa the Sox would have a strategic advantage.

He should start by giving a partial refund to any current season ticket that even sniffs about renewing for 2025. Sox season ticket holders, near extinction, will be mentioned in the same articles for the Great Lakes Piping Plovers.

JR should start doing the exact opposite of what he thinks is a good idea for the White Sox.

Let's see what happens, Bannister is making a mark on the pitching side so it's a start.

Looks like a young power bat, something I the Sox desperately need. One of the better trades the Cubs ever made was for a 25-year-old 3rd baseman. Aramis Ramirez from Pittsburgh for Bobby Hill, Ramirez was a stud and a Sox killer unfortunately.

Lopez is HoF and Richard's should be in the HoF, both excellent baseball minds. I am curious if Getz want's AJ or is it Jerry's idea.

I almost lost my coffee laughing on that one.

I love AJ but I would like to see Sergio Santos down in Birmingham be given a chance.

Don't stop posting, it is nice to read a plan to get back in the hunt. It's bad right now, really bad, but the Sox will get back to kicking ass and taking names.
