GM Meetings Thread: MLB Rumors and Elaborate Boras Metaphors
- GM Meetings Thread: MLB Rumors and Elaborate Boras Metaphors
Duvall? Eh...I don't get the appeal there, but Lourdes is a different story.- Benetti to Tigers
TIL: There are Sox fans who actually enjoyed listening to Benetti on TV casts. I'm fine with joke time in the booth being gone in 2024, on the rare occurrence that I actually want to watch this team.- Kim Ng walks away from Marlins
She should IMMEDIATELY be hired as VP of OPs, but that makes too much sense. So, we'll just truck on forward with.........*checks notes*......Chris Getz.- Trevor Bauer
He didn't have/couldn't disclose until the cases were settled. There was a very good reason he didn't show it to the MLB 2 years ago, he didn't have it.- Trevor Bauer receives 2 YEAR suspension from MLB
Yes sir, I came to post the same thing Tony. Everyone was so quick to throw Bauer under the bus, and call the guy a POS.- Sox/Padres October 1……loss 101?
We did it! 40 full games under 500 for the year! Finally succeeded at a goal I set in my mind for the White Sox.- 9/30- Sox vs Padres, 100 Losses!
We're getting to 40 under, it is within our sights!- 9/26-28, Sox vs Diamondbacks series
This team is going to screw up even losing 101, can't succeed even any failures.- 9/26-28, Sox vs Diamondbacks series
1-3 finish gets us to the magical 40 under. I’ve seen this pitching staff, and we can do it.- 9/23- Sox at Sawx
And Chris Sale.- 9/23- Sox at Sawx
Love you Cease, but I'm on a mission to see us finish 40 games under .500.- 9/23- Sox at Sawx
A 7-8-9 that strikes fear into any opposing team.- 9/20 vs. WSH: “There’s No Gamethread” Gamethread
3-6 finish to get to the 40 games under promised land!- Sox @ Washington September 19 Early Gamethread
3-7 for a cool, even 40 games under .500 for the Championship Window run.- This team is going to lose 90 plus games...
My estimation early on, of 70-92, was WAY more optmistic than I thought. Only 3 teams in baseball have given up more runs this year, than the Sox. Only 2 teams in baseball have scored fewer runs this year, than the Sox. Championship Window- Is Moncada back to being good?
There you go, fixed it for you. I think your keyboard typed some extra stuff there by accident.- Colas sent to AAA (again)
I get it, but he isn't even the worst on this roster, WAR wise. And he's making a hell of a lot less than the guy who is, our Jackie Robinson of modern baseball.- Colas sent to AAA (again)
More Trayce Thompson and Gavin Sheets in the outfield, just what everyone wants to see...- Colas sent to AAA (again)
I think if Colas' only issue, was his slow success at the plate, he wouldn't be sent down. The problem is, he's had these lapses of judgement in the field and just overall, that have to be corrected.....ESPECIALLY if your GM talks about exactly that, being an issue. BUT, as SCCWS said, the AAA season is basically over, so the timing is stupid. Reeks of "We're going to back up what Getz says, even if it makes no sense!"- 9/12 Gamethreads: Royals (Burnt Ends) @ Sox (Italian Beef), 3:40 PM CDT
Burnt Ends all the way, on that choice. What a terrible series of baseball ahead!- 9/6 4th Place Sox at 5th Place Royals
- 9/6 4th Place Sox at 5th Place Royals
It is the year 2023, right in the midst of the 'competitive window' for the Chicago White Sox. Touki Toussaint is the Ace of the pitching staff.- Sox Claim RHP Yohan Ramirez off Waivers (optioned to Charlotte)
High WHIP, high FIP. Fits right in.- It’s official - Getz named SVP & GM
Quickest I've ever cancelled my auto-renew for MLB.tv. Sorry, I'm not watching this train wreck, until we have a new conductor. - GM Meetings Thread: MLB Rumors and Elaborate Boras Metaphors
