The throw from TA is one of the worst you will ever see.

Steals 2nd, no chance to throw him out but bad throw by Yaz, and minimal effort by TA to corral, so runner on 3B,

Sore heel.

Yeah but at least they got some bodies instead of the usual salary relief.

8.164 service time on Baseball Reference. I think you need 10 for the full enchilada.

I am not saying it definitely isn't anything, but I'm skeptical. I would imagine, that close to the deadline, the 3 Stooges are huddled up together, so whoever she feels comfortable speaking with doesn't matter.

I think everyone is making way too much out of it. It was crunch time, she knows Kenny really well. Went with what is familiar.

I remember when so many complained about Greg Walker. Called him lift and pull.

When the gold standard for the hitting coach was Salvy Perez and Jorge Soler, it did make me pause. They have had seasons when they have hit a lot of homers, but they are two of the worst OBP in baseball usually. Looking at it, Soler has had his moments, but he's also been horrible. I think they should show an outs percentage. It basically is 1000- the OBP, but adjust for DPs and bad baserunning.

Totally agree. His press conference fired me up. But it was all talk. One of the highest chase rates in baseball. And the staff walk rate is only beat by the minor league Oakland A's.

This. For all Pedro fans, I ask, what are his strengths?

You just know Benintendi will hit 3 homers in September and Hahn will proclaim his power problem solved.

Considering their track record, I would say definitely. They will overpay for a couple of low tiered players and consider themselves championship worthy.

The Sox don't really think Touki is a legit rotation piece, do they?

The Marlins had $5 burgers last night.

The one thing I liked about Jake was he was different from White Sox prospects. These guys are almost always all the same. Saladino, Yolmer, Remilard....ultimately the same guy. Yeah he struck out too much. Yeah, he probably will never win a GG. Yeah, he could get on base more, but...he barely has 1000 plate appearances as a pro, and he's already hitting homers like few others. Chances are, unlike the typical White Sox, he wont peak until the usual time.

This team gave up weeks ago. I don't know how they spin bringing Pedro back when the team quits to this extent. JR isn't going to sell, I don't want him to die, how about doing the noble thing and step aside as the managing partner? It's not working. Get someone who has the balls to get rid of all the people whose decision making and lack of job performance have cost him money the past 18 years.

I don’t think Burger took any shots at the White Sox. He almost cried talking about being traded. He loved being a White Sox.

In 2021 we thought, even those who were at first very skeptical, that Hahn made a great trade as Lynn was a Cy Young contender and the White Sox were winning. Hindsight will tell you the Sox would most likely have still won the division had they not made this trade. The same thing applies to Liam Hendriks, who was great as a White Sox. They could have had a mediocre closer in 2021, and won the division. They might not have been .500 last year, but who cares? And now? All this shows is the importance of drafting, international signings and development. The White Sox have been godawful at it for a long time, and won't have a legitimate chance of sustained winning and multiple championships until they do. They can be mediocre and catch lightning in a bottle here and there, but it's the same old same old until they fix what really ails them.

If this was Guardianstalk, I think most of us would be a bit pissed.

It really doesn’t look like many of these guys want to play tonight.

Seby looks like a 55 year old guy at the batting cages when he’s batting.

any time you’d like to score a run….that would be great.

Deadline has passed. Can you fire Rick now?

MLB has been trending using the 2 spot in the line up as the new 3 spot. Pedro has been using it as the new 8 hole
