Cueto to Sox (Official)
Never thought we’d see an offseason acquisition list as bad as 2016 but I think Hahn did it.

that is absolutely brutal news. Every knee injury on the bulls ends up worst case scenario. Now worried about Lavine.

Something annoying in Chicago sports right now
Grayson Allen breaks Alex Caruso's wrist. Bulls respond by letting him destroy them in regular season and playoff games. Aaron Rodgers yells he own's the bears and embarrasses them at home, give up 4 TDs and give up 45 points next time played. Ryan Tepera claims astros can't cheat at GRF, astros destroy them in a listless game 4 beating sox 10-1 or whatever it was. Tim Anderson gets mad and makes noise at Josh Donaldson's hard tag, sox sleep in through a sunday finale. Basically chicago sports right now are getting punched in the face by bullies and responding by calling them our daddys and putting a leash around our neck.

5/15 Games
One common refrain that the last 20 years of more fan voice has given us is dismissal that internet gms just fire everyone and are idiots. But the thing is if you outsourced white sox minor league scouting to this forum I think it would be better. Even if we didn't get any more info than scouting websites + futuresox + box scores, I think we'd be better. And that's definitely not saying we'd be among the best scouting depts in the game, mainly just that the sox are bad.

Menechino is movable
The thing about the hitting coach that always comes back is someone will say hitting coaches don't really matter, but if that's the case there's no real reason not to fire them either so you may as well give it a shot.

Menechino is movable
This won't last, but the giants are a team with the best player development in baseball and the sox are not in the top ten (at the very least).

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
Same, was an excellent game to attend. Fun crowd, great weather.

5/13 Games
Soft tossin lefty in college per BA Drafted in the 10th round (305th overall) by the Chicago White Sox in 2021 (signed for $20,000) Sommer is a proven college performer with Indiana and has a career 3.71 ERA over four seasons. He pitched mostly out of the bullpen before moving to a full-time starting role in 2020 and this spring posted a 4.60 ERA over 12 starts and 62.2 innings, while striking out 69 batters and walking 38. Sommer is a soft-tosser who throws his fastball in the upper 80s and occasionally touches 91, but he has good feel for an upper-70s/low-80s changeup that he threw around 30% of the time this spring. He also throws a curveball and a cutter and shows feel to pitch to both sides of the plate.

Lenyn Sosa was 2-5 and after yesterdays power surge he’s now over 1.000 in Birmingham. Also J Rodriguez 2-5

I’ve seen enough, Menas probably the only pitcher with a curve for strikes in low-A. Move him up.

Love how Rodriguez has been making more contact but sad his power hasn’t been much in Bham so far.

Market/Financial Thread
I still love that company and its leadership but it's going to be real touch and go for all of the smaller players the next few years. I hope they raised enough capital to stay afloat because I think they've made a lot of smart bets and obviously they have a big plant in IL I'm rooting for as well.

2022-23 NFL Season thread
In general I hate when people specifically let everyone know they don't like care for something in the middle of everyone discussing it... yet... I really don't understand they hyperventilating every year trying to figure out the nfl schedule. We already know what teams they are playing! Who cares! It's May, at this point October is only a loose, sad concept to me.
