  1. We'll just have to be patient and see how it pans out. The Sale trade looked immaculate for a few years too.
  2. It's not a big deal at all. I've stopped wishcasting on super young pitching prospects. If anything it's a bonus he's already had TJS and hasn't had his MLB clock started. I think part of the problem with the Detroit rebuild and in part ours, was relying way too much on 23-26 year old pitchers.
  3. If burger was a stock the Sox sold him at the absolute peak. he will likely never put up a stretch of 2 months at a 850 OPS or higher again.
  4. Pitching coming back to earth with a thud this week. If the score holds today they will be 20-18 with a +1 differential. Their schedule is pretty tough to end May, with a trip out East to play the Orioles, Yanks and Nationals before coming home to face the Astros again. I'd bet they are .500 or slightly below by the time June come around.
  5. I think it's entirely possibly we play like .400 ball from here on out. That would be like a 52-110 team. Just putrid but not historically awful. I agree, soft bias of low expectations.
  6. He should just stop talking imo. The stupid s%*# he said about Robert's injury (was unclear if he actually had a setback or if they were just adjusting the time table back a couple weeks) only muddled the waters.
  7. Not really a comparable situation given how much projected surplus value Q had at the time relative to his salary.
  8. Fedde against Lively. White Sox current fWAR hitting leaders: De Bong .8 Moncada .3 Sheets .3 Big Dick Mendick .2 Lee .2 White Sox current fWAR hitting losers: Maldonado -1 Beni -1 Vaughn -.9 Shewmake -.6 White Sox current fWAR pitching leaders: Crochet .7 Banks .6 Fedde .4 Flexen .3 White Sox current fWAR pitching losers: Leone -.5 Soroka -.4 Wilson -.3 Shaw/Kopech/Clevinger/Garcia -.1
  9. Everything else aside, what an awful statement full of ambiguity from the guy supposed to the clear leader of the franchise. PR isn't everything, but it's something.
  10. Honestly I'm oddly into this train wreck of a season and yes, that's partially why I've taken it up. Soxtalk deserves some active threads and talk even if the team doesn't really deserve our attention or applause. Baseball is the backdrop of the summer and no matter how s%*# this team is I'll have it on with at least a half eye cocked on it.
  11. lol a double moves his wRC+ to 45, come on, let's at least get an OPS over 600 before we start talking about how great he is.
  12. shriffen embarrassing himself talking about eloy vaughn...
  13. yea I just said that. He's looked damn good for about a month.
  14. "two on for eloy and he pops out the first pitch" Yea, that's about right.
  15. Insane how much adding Pham and Ramos has turned a god awful team into just an awful one.
  16. Again, you're doing the contact play with the infield in. Why?
