Falstaff

Pedro after he learned he wasn't fired, when asked about JR, singing his answer to the media, all 1 of them. "Well, he's all you'd ever want He's the kind I like to flaunt and take to dinner But he always knows his place He's got style, he's got grace, he's a winner He's a winner Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, he's a winner"

Let's go Ky!! Brooks got 3 hits, Sosa & Vargas both got a hit. All I care about are the youngsters on this roster.

If JR brings anyone in this season to replace Pedro he will be looking at a floor of at least $16.20 per hour. Starting July 1, 2024 the Chicago minimum wage applies to any employer with 4 or more employees.

Guess Pedro's next job: I will pick Coroner, he would hit the ground running.

Sox Forecast: Despair

I don't subscribe to the Sun Times, but I get the gist of the article. I have turned down free ticket's because I don't want to give any money, even if it is for parking, to JR. In 2025 I seriously doubt I will get the new Sox/Bulls/Hawks tv package, I will keep up to date on social media. If the youngsters on the team show some progress and pride I will have some intrigue. I have always been a White Sox fan and will be buried a Sox fan but going forward I will not spend one dime for any team JR owns.

A sliver of hope could be what happened in Baltimore. Peter Angelos was loathed by the O's fan base and the team sucked. New ownership has got the team back on the winning track. I am assuming MLB will want an AL franchise in Chicago if a new owner buys the Sox.

With Thorpe I am hoping rest will be the cure.

Jerry should fire himself, then the next guy that takes over can fire Getz.

For doubting any SoxTalk posters on just how terrible the White Sox were going to be I'm really really sorry, I apologize. I do offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you, or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.

The first split squad game in spring training

JR deserves getting ripped for being an incompetent owner, but this isn't his style. He actually is a mench when it comes to charity and not putting his name out there to get the pub for it. Hopefully the Sox make things right for the kids and parents.

Hearing this disappoints me because of the children.

With Eloy getting traded James Kruk's workload just decreased 25%. Going forward the in house " Little Rascal " scooters are strictly for JR and the rest of the Board of Directors. Chris Getz, " The trade allowed us to allocate more funds for acquiring players instead of updating our batteries in our scooter fleet."

I agree The White Sox have my heart and soul, but my money, that's different, that they have to earn.

This season wipes out any good will for the 2005 WS.

With a $5 million buy out for the 2025 season Moncada will have made over $71 million in his career. He checked out a while back with money in the bank. I don't see him having any hunger or drive to be competitive going further. He had one good season in 2019, + defender, and a great guy is about all I can say. Unfortunately, Yoan is too expensive for the Sox to let him stick around another year and prove he can contribute a full season.

Montoyo because he has prior experience as an MLB manager.

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)
