I would rather have a major league caliber player assuredly getting 5 PAs over the most AAA asset on the team, so whether or not it’s “a traditional lead off hitter” isn’t important at all. I would rather have Vaughn leading off. I was under the impression that traditional assumptions about lineup construction have more recently been proven to be bogus anyway…

Haseley leading off and Sheets batting third makes Leury batting third last year look like sheer fucking genius. What a joke. 11 losses in a row, here we come!

With all do respect, I don’t. At this point, the best outcome there is for the team is for Hahn’s entire operation to go completely down in flames in historic fashion. Reinsdorf will only respond to losing real value, and this is the only way to exact that. It’s clear Hahn and co. cant win. If Reinsdorf won’t sell the best outcome is for whatever next yes man to get lucky. Hahn is neither lucky or good.

I want them to play and I want them to lose don’t stop now boys!

2020 to 8/12/21: 103-73 8/13/21 to present: 113-123 The best it would ever get was the field of dreams game. A game that didn’t even really matter much. That was our World Series with this bunch. That was enough for them. That one regular season game. What a shame it was so fleeting.

Losing is a disease as contagious as syphillus

Gonna enjoy wearing a grocery bag with eyeholes at the ballpark this year at every game. I’m a little relieved honestly it’s finally fully time for that old chestnut

Just like we drew it up! Don’t stop now boys!

This has comeback loss written all over it!

Hahahhahahahaha is sheets gonna get benched for absolutely misplaying that ball? is Lynn going to for flipping it lackadaisically?

The fourteen and fifteen are the same? edit: oh I see, the only times they have lost fourteen or fifteen games is during the same streak.

I love it. I would eat a Jake!

I mean, he’s more worthy than the Yerminator, right? Or…would a Burger Burger be the death knell for his hot April?

I sincerely hope this team keeps losing. Winning any game would make me angry at this point.

Another loss! Keep it up boys!!! Historic!!!

The best thing that can happen to this organization at this point for the real fans is if this team continues losing every game in an embarrassing fashion until they are national news for how incompetent they are the players will be fine, they got paid the FO idiots will be fine, they got paid the owner will be fine, he made billions off of us suckers its best for the fans that this team lose as many games in a row as possible. I’m hoping for at least 10 more losses winning is utterly counterproductive at this point

Let's have some fun since the reality of this situation sucks. Say you could blow the whole org up including contracts ( and including owner, FO, and staff) but you must keep 5 White Sox players to build the new team around. Who are the 5 you are keeping? Me: Hendriks, Robert, Colas, Cease, Burger

I’m glad it went down this way rather than the 2001-2004 / 2010-2012 slow death march to mediocrity (with flashes of hope). Now I have my whole summer ahead of me without spending much money or time on this stupid team. Oh sure, I’ll go to a couple games with friends - but i doubt I’ll be watching many games outside of that.

Yes, and from 1990-2012 they had a top 10 record in baseball over that stretch, maybe even close to top 5. It's all in how you chop up the sample size.

I drank the Kool Aid through 2011. I mean, we won 90 games in 2006, and arguably were a better team. We just didn't quite make it. And then there was 2008, which was an electric season in its own way, and we lost the playoff series to the eventual AL champ. And Schuler had division titles in 1993 and 2000, and we were in the lead during 1994 when the strike hit. It was only recently that the layers began to peel back and I saw the onion for what it really is.

Should I change the title to “Moncada to probably miss most of the rest of his career” ?

The very worst thing that happened to us as fans long term was that the Sox FO luckboxed their way into a fluke 2005 World Series win. That win was brought to you by an insane number of career years and everything working out injury wise and budget wise just right, and gave everyone involved the confirmation bias they needed to justify their idiotic business model for the rest of time because against all sense, logic, and reason, it worked exactly once. The White Sox are the Chris Moneymaker of MLB.

I struggle with the notion in the first video that the Sox FO and ownership finds losing a preferable outcome. I get it, because they don’t open the purse strings to $300 million players. But I think it’s worse; the Sox have been trying to win, but have been incompetent in assembling the veteran pieces, some starting pitching, and bullpen to compliment the young core of this roster. They set so much money on fire.

1:10PM CDT NBCSCH lineups when available Gotta get a streak going getting a head start on this as I fly out tomorrow morning for work and don’t want to forget.

I agree. I want all the Burger I can eat.
