Seby is a really bad hitter.

I like the way you think.

Why did the downfall happen and could it have been avoided?
Dick Allen replied to Dominikk85's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Counting on the same players who are often injured year after year, for some crazy reason, hasn't quite worked out. -
Kopech is looking good. Nice win.

Dick Allen replied to Dominikk85's topic in Pale Hose Talk
To me that is exactly it. Never trying to really be the best, just, as you wrote, good enough. They FO lacks killer instinct. It should be no surprise, the rest of the organization lacks it as well. -

Dick Allen replied to Dominikk85's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Yes. 2021 was a good year, but there were clear weaknesses, and those weaknesses were barely addressed. The FO wasn't totally committed IMO. They tried to get by on the cheap, and where they did spend their money, it was wrong. I think they were mesmerized by the fact that they were in the AL Central, and putting a juggernaut on the field wasn't necessary. I look forward to some day having an ownership and front office committed to being the best they can be, and not just trying to be good enough. -
Huge DP

They should have another run or 2. That sometimes comes back to bite you in the ass.
-
I just think he had a bad game.
-
I hope these missed opportunities don’t come back to haunt them. Still should have this one.

Unless Dylan can throw a shutout, tonight is an L.

What really makes me salty is everyone misses, but what in the world has Hahn ever done to make anyone think he could lead this team to championships? For every positive, their are 4 or 5 hamstringing negatives with everything he does.
-
He's sucked so bad for a while. I don't see the point. He isn't going to get better.

5/21 Royals @ White Sox 1:10 start. Hernandez vs. Lynn
Dick Allen replied to Polar Bear's topic in 2023 Season in Review
TA has been an automatic 2 out lately if someone was on 1sr. -
It's worth a shot to see if this adjustment really did something. He has had stretches of MLB success offensively. It costs you JM. But Haseley or Billy Hamilton are still around for defense. Probably nothing, but worth a shot. Wish he wad a lefty.

Dick Allen replied to Polar Bear's topic in 2023 Season in Review
Clint Frazier is an interesting cat. He has a ton of talent, but he's been kind of an ass with a bad attitude. Hopefully he has matured, and this new stance gets him where he could be. I think he was a top 10 prospect in all of baseball at one point. -

Yes she is. And the White Sox guest services is top notch. We as fans, have a lot we can complain about, but they really are great. -
The bad news is he’s an OF who should be a 1B/DH. They changed his stance in Charlotte and he got crazy hot. I’m guessing they are hoping to catch lightening in a bottle here, and hoping for a hot stretch. Reality probably strikes soon. Hazeley can’t hit but he contributed defensively.

Liam Hendriks' return appears imminent
Dick Allen replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
No spring training. Off season program was altered.What chemo did to his body. It's going to be a bit. I'm amazed he is where he is. -
So he will be White Sox average. I do agree, it's crazy to think he'll be effective. But this is the type of thing the White Sox front office banks on annually. And we all know, they know more than anyone else.
-
I have no idea how anyone could think Crochet could possibly hold up as a starter.
-
Who would you actually pay to watch hit?
Dick Allen replied to caulfield12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I've paid to watch a lot of guys hit that couldn't hit. Of the names on the list, Eloy. I like watching them go high and far, and when he's hot, he can do it as well as anyone. -
He also started using that video thing with pitches Burger has been using. Those 2 using it, no mention of the others,hmmmm. His numbers really are incredible considering he has a 5-56 in there.
