  1. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 29, 2015 -> 08:01 PM) Alexei doubled haterz Broken watch right twice a day.
  2. QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 29, 2015 -> 07:40 PM) Flowers has the baseball approach of a hockey player as well Maybe with a Hockey stick he would hit better.
  3. Sucks watching teams play great defense against Sox.
  4. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 29, 2015 -> 06:50 PM) Except Borchard and Viciedo were both record-setting bonuses for collegiate and LA under 23 at the time of their deals. It is a fact Sox spent less on drafting players than anyone in baseball, last few years before slotted picks. June 3 2012 Chicago Tribune In the last five years, the White Sox spent only $18.3 million on the draft, the lowest total among the 30 teams and almost $34 million less than the Pirates, who have been the biggest spenders. That's the biggest reason that the Sox have a farm system that doesn't get much love from National media.
  5. QUOTE (Jerksticks @ May 29, 2015 -> 06:38 PM) Kane & Toews helped a smidge. I agree, but the culture changed 100% once he left.
  6. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 29, 2015 -> 05:07 PM) Just a fact.The funny thing is the guy that actually put the team together was Tallon. Former Blackhawk long time Bill Wirtz guy. Bob Pulford the KW of the Hawks being fired that was when real change happened for the better. The rest is history.
  7. QUOTE (LDF @ May 29, 2015 -> 03:55 PM) do not forget the drafting and great farm system the sox have The only reason Sox have any decent minor leaguers now is slotted picks. If that would not of changed Sox would still be last in spending and ranked 30th. If not for that Rodon would never of been drafted, but someone Sox could of got at #3 they could sign cheap.
  8. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 29, 2015 -> 01:10 PM) Again, no GM is "100% on his own". Hell even Jerry himself has to answer to the Board of Directors. The layers of management the Sox have in making decisons is NOT working and has not for years.
  9. QUOTE (Jake @ May 29, 2015 -> 12:40 PM) If you want to point a finger at somebody for why we aren't having a good year, the finger should point at Rick Hahn. I wouldn't necessarily endorse firing Hahn, either, but the players just aren't very good. He was aggressive in the offseason but there was too far to go. The team has the talent to compete, but we were always going to have to get lucky. We haven't gotten lucky. Some of the players that are normally not that good are once again not that good. Big shock, Tyler Flowers, Geo Soto, Conor Gillaspie, Emilio Bonifacio, John Danks, Hector Noesi, etc. aren't kicking ass out there. As long as KW is over Hahn how can you really know If Hahn made all these decisions? I would like to see Hahn on his own 100% and judge him without KW around on his own merits.
  10. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 29, 2015 -> 11:35 AM) Not at all. Garpax still have their jobs. Reminds me of another JR owned team.
  11. Anyone else find it sad that All Star voting online only? I loved the punch ballots ushers gave out at games.
  12. Beck did good giving 6 innings the rest not so good.
  13. QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ May 28, 2015 -> 05:40 PM) He is so bad as a first base coach. I've never liked him. He always looks clueless. Fans elbow just knocked that out of Conor's glove. And then he hits a double lol It is the Sox always happens that way.
  14. Sox get 3 walks and nothing other teams against Sox score 3 runs easy. Boston needs to wake up as first base coach.
