  1. QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:26 PM) Agreed. Teams are building small armies of stats and sabremetrics specialists with complex supercomputers to help them make the right decisions. Find an assistant in one of those organizations and start over. Jason McLeod should be the next GM
  2. QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) I guess you have to since our offense seems to be on extended vacation You mean this fine offense put together by a great baseball man
  3. QUOTE (harkness @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 10:24 PM) Getting beat by a last place team by a score of 16-1 over 3 game promotes negativity. And now 5 of 6 against two of the worst teams in baseball
  4. QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) Too early to root for the draft pick? 3 weeks to go for that
  5. QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 10:20 PM) Do the White Sox know they're playing the Angels? Way too nonchalant coming into this series.
  6. QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 10:09 PM) Hansen has had TJ correct? No
  7. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:11 PM) Gets it up to 97. Will only have to worry about 2 pitches. Fastball seems flat though. Not saying it will work, but worth a try. This starting thing isn't working for him.
  8. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:45 PM) 1BB, 1H, and 8 K in 4 IP for Hansen with 56 pitches. Very nice. His command so far has been a shockingly good development
  9. QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:54 PM) Hahn is the worst GM the Sox ever had. I don't want him selling anybody. Best thing they can do is go out and spend money to buy some players with big contracts to plug some holes. I'm surprised by how many fans Hahn has on here. I understand he has some unusual constraints, but why not find someone who can do better given those constraints?
  10. QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:55 PM) Minds may change but someone is going to be held responsible for this. You cant keep saying "Next year...next year...whoops we screwed up time to start over" and keep your job. It's not happening. Let's just put the Bulls into perspective here since they were in this position. They had the chance to start over again. They could have taken a huge risk and traded Jimmy Butler to either the Celtics or Timberwolves. But they didnt because guess who stepped in? We've already played the intentionally losing game. You think they will be allowed to start again? What you are describing is baseball hell and something that will set the Sox back more than selling would. When you have very few trade chips and an average payroll with not much coming off after the year, you are in a terrible spot.
  11. QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:50 PM) They cant sell. It's definitely the end of Robin's tenure if you do that. He might as well pack his bags now and get ready to move. Hahn more than likely doesnt have authorization to do that/he would probably get fired before even doing it and ontop of it it's half assed. If your going to sell do it all the way. Of course Ventura is done here after this season. Standing still just for the sake of how it looks is ridiculous. Of course, I think minds might change a bit if they are 8 out and behind 4 teams in the WC in 2 weeks
  12. Nice play by Anderson. Wonder if that's the last pitch Turner ever throws in the majors
  13. QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:46 PM) They arent going to sell. You really think they can go to Kenny Williams and JR right now as say "We give up....we're going to start trading pieces to compete maybe in 5 years?". That's not going to happen. This current team is so outclassed. Why do you want them to stand still and hope they win 82 games. What we have seen the last two years is baseball hell.
  14. QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:46 PM) They arent going to sell. You really think they can go to Kenny Williams and JR right now as say "We give up....we're going to start trading pieces to compete maybe in 5 years?". That's not going to happen. You can trade Robertson and still compete in the next few years. They wasted a first round pick on a closer, might as well groom him for that
  15. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:45 PM) Who is he going to sell? Robertson for sure, maybe Duke. Shields, Frazier and Melky should be available
  16. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:44 PM) Turn Turner into a reliever. I think he could be good there. Why?
  17. With some good hitting teams coming up, it really does seem like the decision to sell for Hahn at the deadline will be easy.
  18. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) Nice knowing you, Turner He is seriously terrible. Can't believe they pitched him today. Nothing about his AAA numbers made it seem like he could compete at this level.
  19. QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:18 PM) Shuck? Crap, missed that
  20. Awful by Abreu. Looks to have no game plan. Late on fastball and clueless on curve
  21. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) Since the scoreless streak is over, I now task greg775 with making our participation trophies Is it going to be like 5 words per line on the plaque
