The reaction to this statement will be exactly why Jerry never talks out loud. He is going to be rightfully buried for it and disappear like the groundhog seeing his shadow.

I figured you wouldn't.

Weren't you just telling me that you didn't watch or pay attention to any of this?

We continue to be the dumbest franchise in baseball.

And/or still injured

It is uncanny that every single White Sox draft and development player has zero baseball IQ.

Honestly I have never seen anything like it. All of these guys were showing promise and talent at the major league level. Then to a man they ALL regressed, and regressed like I have never seen that many players do. If the foundation was bad, they should have never shown that much ability, and never gotten anywhere at all. it would have been different if they never made a playoff, but they did twice. If the foundation was that bad, they never break .500.

Until Tony didn't get the most out of the players and they collapsed under his watch.

Well at least they didn't disappoint in giving false hope.

Literally in the history of baseball, this has not happened. There are excuses, and then there are fantasies.

Ah yes, the freedom of speech crowd trying to have people canceled again over some hurt feelings.

I didn't think it was possible to "try" and still be this bad, but here we are.

Burrowes and McDougal are two of those borderline guys who the system looks a lot better if they get going and push themselves into the picture.

I literally can't describe something I have seen change since Pedro left.

You seem to know a lot more about the Cubs too, plus a little defensive.

Way too close for comfort.

Don't rule it out.

This too. That group was in a downward spiral. They weren't going anywhere.

If you call back to back playoff appearances flimsy for the first time in franchise history, sure.

That Vargus guy is pretty good.

Yeah, Kopech was the top guy in his position by far. He would have been even higher, but for punching a teammate in the minors.

Agreed. He was supposed to be Roger Clemens coming in. Between injuries, covid skipping a year, being generally uncoachable, and failing in both the pen as an as a starter for the Sox, he deserves to be on that Mt Rushmore. I know people get after Eloy and Yoan, but neither of them have ever gone on record for refusing to listen to coaching.

I will say there were a couple of big drops which change the outcomes and statlines a lot.
