Besides getting JR to pay him, he wants to play CF. He wouldn't do that with the White Sox.

He has spent, but not consistently to sustain winning. The first sign of a dark cloud, he bails.

It seems to me that are trying to secretly rebuild. Once that surely fails, a real rebuild will occur. You can't drop payroll $50 million if you aren't anywhere near luxury tax , and call it a retool.

I think at this point, even Cubs fans would be disillusioned. Jerry has made unforced error after unforced error, with both his teams. He doesn't learn from them. He doubles down. He's lucky he's a really bright guy so he has something to fall back on, because he's nowhere near as bright as he thinks he is. The main reason the Sox rebuild failed so spectacularly was unlike all the other teams that sucked so bad they had to tear it down to the studs, they kept the idiots who made the decisions that got them into that predicament.

I don't think people realize just how bad the Tampa franchise would have been if Jerry moved the Sox there. They probably would have skipped town by now.

If you are Nashville, why would you want Jerry Reinsdorf? He's a proven failure. His only specialty is ripping off local governments, therefore, taxpayers. His teams suck. He doesn't ever really go for it. Everything is 20th century. Give me an expansion team over him 100 time over 100. They will win sooner than he will.

JR made billions running Chicago sports teams into the ground. What a dick move to at least make it appear he is flirting with Nashville.

Getz wants players like him. They are going to suck, and be very boring to watch, but their defense will keep them from losing 100. It will be over 90 though.

I was fine with him a lot longer than most everyone else, but it's beyond time. And if he's doing these stunts now.....just sell the team and count your money.

Could you imagine if JR actually moved to Tampa back in the day? With how they draw even when they win,, and JR's refusal to gamble away any profit, and the division they play in, it may have been the worst ownership from a competitve angle of all time.

I'll take it.

i still don't believe the league would let him move.

They were already talking tha DeJong/Lopez is the starting middle infield. Hopefully Montgomery can stick at SS. I was watching MLBN the other day and they were talking to some player, I forget who, and he threw out Montgomery, who apparently he trains with. Their trainer is also a hitting coach. He said Montgomery will be a star.

I don't know Nashville politics but by the time JR needs someone to build him a stadium, the mayor of Nashville will probably be someone else.

The funny thing is, I think the best part of his eating was it wasn't so elegant. It's like anyone else who eats something and has to talk. What drew Harry Caray, probably the most popular broadcaster in this city's history, wasn't that he was some elegant guy, but was at least the illusion he was more like the people watching and listening to him. People my age will remember Ray Rayner on WGN in the mornings.What made him so great was his art projects looked like mine would look. His trips to the zoo went like my trips interacting with the animals would go. I guess the White Sox want everyone ignore everything, and think they are just a step above everyone else. Maybe if they would have a reality check, they could solve some of their problems.

His ERA will be closer to 6.00 than 4.00.

I was just going to post the same thing.

Just wait until next year.

Does this inspire the team to try to bee a bit better in 2024 ?

I hope things change, but 50 years is a few regimes. Hard to believe it will be fixed now.

I'm not too keen on what the White Sox will draft after their first selection. They haven't drafted a guy in round 2 who put up a 2.0 career WAR for the White Sox in over 50 years.

I get this draft sucks and picking high next year would be ideal, but there is no guarantee they don't lose 100 plus games, finish 4th worse and get screwed next season with the lottery. Whatever happens is probably the worst case scenerio for this franchise.

If you are the White Sox and hired this guy, how do you not fire him today to stop him from embarrassing you any more? Read the article. He talks about learning things that are rather obvious, and should be more obvious for a guy with experience in a major league dugout.

Jon Morosi is the Pedro Grifol of baseball insiders.

Just remember when he "spoke" last offseason. It was all BS. This guy is a fraud, in way over his head, and everyone knows it except the White Sox. He's the real life equivalent of Milos on Seinfeld.
