Your entire post is your opinion. Maybe take your own advice on tolerance.

Yeah 27.73. It isn't huge. It's about 3 times in 11 occurances.

It's just over 25% even with those things factored in.

And I would argue that the initial premise that he knows what he is doing, is wrong.

The odds don't change if you are 30th, 29th, or 28th as a team.

It's all about finding great people to do these jobs AND THEN LETTING THEM DO THEM!

If you exclude the losing streaks, this is a great team! We aren't talking about a single game skewing stats here. This is a team that is 25-31 since the ASG, and closing in on their 3rd straight 100 loss season. Even if they avoid that history this is not a good baseball team, nor even a mediocre one.

Why not both?

The City of Chicago? Shrinking. The Metro Area? No.

I think the problem with Schiff is that if you asked ChatGPT to create a White Sox PBP guy, John is what it would spit out. It's predictable, flawed, and overemphasizes things it shouldn't.

And as soon as they get what they want on the next thing, they will be OK with it. This is Chicago politics at its finest.

No, it's just greg.

Yep, this.

There is no way both party's pick up the option.

Both can be true. Waiting for the next Rojas and Perez signings.

It looks like the league adjusted to the Sox looking fastball. Now we need to see them adjust back.

They didn't though. Kenny scouted the guy through tape.

It is nice to see us finally doing the s%*# we should have done 20 years ago.

Romy is another great example of a guy who just needed a bit of time to get it at the major league level and settle into a role that fit his skills best of all. It's exactly why you do everything you can to play these types of guys so as to do real self-evaluations on them, so as to capture as best you can the ones who will give you positive impacts on the roster in the future. Wins and losses are secondary to internal evaluations these days. The hope is that one of these days soon the team will need to value wins more than evaluations and we won't have the ability to let guys fail at times like we do now. It's all of the more reason to do it now. And go figure, the team improved a ton when we quit running out sub replacement old man utility players, and started actually going with the youth movement. Judging by how some have turned out, maybe the cupboard wasn't as bare as we were led to believe, and it was opportunity and development that needed improving.

No OnE wOuLd Be OuTrAgEd If He WaS a MaN!

With your status as a Cub fan, this makes sense.

Look, if the White Sox leave Chicago, expansion teams will be fist fighting to take their place ala the Cleveland Browns.

I am not sure how they Bears giving up 52 is on the QB, but sure
