So you're saying he wasn't a waste of money?

I don't know anything about this new guy, but he has to be better than Sims. They wouldn't even walk guys to get to a pitcher because they were scared.

I wonder if anyone else ever got to 10 career homers before he hit a double. It's been incredible.

After all, you can't waste a year.

I love the clueless spin. Billy is such a good person, he thought more of the Bulls than himself so he walked away, but last week it was ownership wanted him, and anyone who didn't wasn't right for the job. The team will never have a long run again unless they get sold because good teams with long runs get paid way beyond the luxury tax threshold the Reinsdorfs avoid, even with the best attendance in the league.

The more they talk about not doing the right thing yesterday, the worse it looks.

One inning in and the Schriff doesn’t know the score.

If the pitcher was on deck, he would have walked him. I don’t think he or the miraculously put together staff bothered looking farther ahead. Spectacularly bad managerial decision. Fits right in with the rest of what has been going on.

You read the same crap about Chris Getz because the same crap keeps happening.

He would be pitching to a pitcher.

If they had no more bats on their bench, this is a fireable offense.

I think it's 90 years, which is longer than the White Sox World Series drought when they won in 2005.

Chris Getz was miraculously able to hire a couple of hitting gurus. All is well.

Just wait until this years swing change.

If there really was a coach who could make bad hitters good hitters, he would command way too much money to work for Jerry Reinsdorf.

Just like back then, it’s all we got.

Yeah 6 10 is probably official because I am sure pitchers were measured too. There is always the possibility they may have to hit. If he played for the Bulls, he would probably be listed at 7 feet.

Major League debut in his hometown with 500 guests……it will be a miracle his pitch count isn’t elevated his first couple of innings.

For some reason, I don't think giving away Lenyn Sosa is going to cost the White Sox any championships.

It's refusing to eat the contract.

I think JR likes Cash Considerations even more than David Eckstein.

They trade him one day after the White Sox manager took the bat out of Mune's hands with a bunt to have Sosa face a funky right hander. The obvious happened next.

Is Sosa going to knock Eloy back to AAA?

Sosa is no big loss, but what they got back is a downgrade. Its a money dump, even though he doesn;t make much, it's above minimum.

I haven’t seen or heard him mentioned in a while, but is Tony LaRussa still around?
