No doubt.

White Sox Winner! .500!?!
I agree. One of his best. Although with as long as it's been since they have been an exciting team, you could have used waiting on a sunny day from the same album.

Does Ricky deserve manager of the year?
For once we agree.

Yep. Strained forearm is not a "weeks" for reevaluation. That is ligament.

could be just a dead arm period.

I believe that's what I said, if not sorry. My point was just that in times of high unemployment there may be no better opportunities.

I agree it will be at home.

Stuff happens. Just ask the Golden State Warriors.

6/14 Games
I think it will be after the MLB All star break. I think it's about 10 days or so after this date.

There is no doubt people have a right to certain expectations and that everyone should get what they can. However as I said, this can only occur when the employee has better options. If there are no other opportunities, the employers dont need to give the employees anything.

This only true in the environment of low unemployment. Many of us that worked in a higher unemployment environment really didn't have the choice and stayed with companies a long time even if the situation was poor.

Hulu live carries the NBC chicago station for the Sox, if you are local. The only local station you don't get is WGN so I have an antenna for that. It's 55 per month.

Colome remains with White Sox, who always had ample interest in him
If he is traded, it should be a deal like Eaton, pitching, pitching, pitching. Look at the current lineup up and rotation. Pitching is where help is needed more.

Sox vs. Yankees - 6/13 7:10pm
Some good negative looks at the win.

Kimbrel to Cubs
Ryne Sandberg retired with a year or two left on his contract for more money, I believe. He cited part of it was his divorce. Cubs just have a way with people.

Disco Demolition T-Shirt Night
It's like the straight pride parade. People rebelling against the popular rebellions.

Kimbrel to Cubs
It's the only way they could do it because they aren't going to spend into they penalty. I wouldn't say they are necessarily creative but they do spend money. The Sox tried to get creative with Machado and look what happened.

Burdi "Athletic" Story...
No doubt. It may be 2 years or not at all but the odds are in his favor.

Burdi "Athletic" Story...
We have about an 85% success rate in returning pitchers to their prior level of performance at the MLB level. I also wouldn't conclude that he is one of the pitchers that shows it's not 100%. He hasn't really even worked back into his rigorous long toss program fully.

Day of Reckoning is Coming NCAA...
I think the better option is to not force kids to go to college if they don't want to. College isn't for everyone.

It's not the overall numbers but the progress they make throughout the season. Most prospects take time to adjust to the level. They are there to learn and improve. They do it at individual rates.

And that's a Eloy Jimenez Coming Out Party White Sox Winner
To each his own. Because you could say that the bad deal was the reason for the change.

There is no reason to use that as a arbitrary demarcation line. However if you do you could say the FO was not good at building on the fly but has been pretty good at the rebuild. So if the rebuild is successful hopefully the prospects continue to develop and open the window for an extended period of time.

The question always remains: do the positives outweigh the negatives? No GM has made all positive or all negative deals.
