Frank Thomas Suing Sox
Its funny, I saw another r commercial for another personal injury firm. Their number is 800 222-2222. Lerner and Rowe are 708 222-2222, so they are probably getting a lot of calls intended for them.

Frank Thomas Suing Sox
Corboy and Demitri are personal injury lawyers. Were Lerner and Rowe not available? All joking aside, whether this is frivolous or not, its an embarrassment the Sox don't need with the best player they may have ever had. Certainly the best since JR took over.

Now Frank's saying the White Sox have to stay out of Frank Thomas business.

I'm guessing this will end any chance of Frank appearing on the pre and post game shows again.

White Sox sign Reese McGuire, Korey Lee won't make MLB roster
Maybe Getz trades Lee to Pittsburgh for Clevinger. This time could be the charm.

White Sox sign Reese McGuire, Korey Lee won't make MLB roster
Losing Lee is no big deal obviously, and it's possible no one claims him. No one else seemed to want Spanky,, and they Sox made him their highest paid backstop. It just seems odd to me. Why hang on to him until now if you didn't want him? Did they really think he may get better at the things they didn't like about him during the winter?

If they don't like the way Lee works with pitchers, they can't have him in AAA working with their better prospects. That would make zero sense.

If doesn’t seem to make sense, but something must be about to happen that will make it make sense.

3/21 @ Reds, 8:05pm CST
I think people take spring training stats way too seriously both bad and good. But obviously would prefer to have them good. He will probably be what he has always been.

2026 Spring Training Thread
The Sox will be simulcasting 10 games on the U channel 26 this year for those of you who don't get their station and the opportunity to hear the Schriff 162 times a year.

“The 78” + "The Railyard" = the future of the Sox and Fire
Hitting the ball into the river would be nice.

“The 78” + "The Railyard" = the future of the Sox and Fire
I wonder if he would build the ballpark there or leave the park in the 78 and build the "village" and parking in the land he just bought. I wish JR would just give him total control right now under the premise of can't waste 4 or 5 years. JR should understand that.

Update: Vasil Needs Tommy John
Its too bad, but the bright side is, if this was inevitable, having it done now is probably best. Non contention in 2026 and probably some sort of stoppage next season for at least a little while isn't bad. Hopefully he returns better than ever.

Update: Vasil Needs Tommy John
Why don't you ever give JR his due. He's the only owner who ever would have made Chris Getz GM, so according to all of your posts, he got it right.

Update: Vasil Needs Tommy John
Nothing is Getz' fault. Why would somebody be so crazy to put any blame on the player development guy when top prospects fail to live up to their billing?

MLB Franchise Valuations for 2026 - Sox are 17th
Quite the indictment of White Sox ownership.

Update: Vasil Needs Tommy John
Maybe for the White Sox it is, but putting together a team that might not lose 100 games is far from miraculous in the normal world.

Heyman mentions Sox interest in Conforto
I saw Herbie last fall. 85 years old, former crack addict, and he hops around the stage like 25 year old.

“The 78” + "The Railyard" = the future of the Sox and Fire
The White Sox need to add a lot of new fans, and also reactivate the many they have turned off. New ownership will help a lot. I dont think the stadium not being located south is a deal breaker. By the time they play there, they will be at least another one or 2 city connect concepts down the road. I was half joking about moving to NW Indiana, but it makes some sense for them if when the Bears ultimately commit to Arlington Heights, maybe Indiana makes a run at them. Their stadium is half the price.

Why doesn't JR turn to Indiana? Wolf Lake isnt very far from their fanbase and Indiana has no MLB team. Maybe they will build him a stadium.

2026 NFL thread
If the public owes the Bears something, don't the Bears owe the public something? There are literally hundreds of companies in Chicago alone that generate more state tax than they do. I get it's a bit of a different business, but they still use the same rules. That said, I don't buy for a second the Bears will ever play a home game in Indiana.
