  1. How did Dioner Navarro not make this team?
  2. 500 year old Jimmy Rollins would look good at SS on that team.
  3. The White Sox model is broken, and everyone knows it, except the White Sox. Here is a team that is supposed to be at the height of its multiple championships window, and they have to ignore the past 5 seasons of Andrus' career because they finally realized teams that rely on 2 rookies, Colas and Sosa, usually don't contend for championships. It's played out like everyone except RH, KW, JR and their lackeys thought. Probably even worse. Elvis' performance surprises no one, except those who have an office on 35th Street.
  4. I couldn’t believe for almost a month, it wasn’t .
  5. While I shook my head at most of what he said, all those rumors about him walking around not knowing what day it was were proven false. He's still sharp. Whether his heart is truly in it we don't know. I don't wish him ill health. I'm happy he's healthy. I do wish he would sell the team.
  6. I get what youre saying here, but those guys were going so bad, it might hamper them down the road. Get some ABs and come back in a little while.
  7. They extended him far too early IMO. Often injured, sometimes can't throw a strike to save his life....he is LH though.
  8. I'm not advocating for Diekman, another Rick Hahn mistake, I'm just saying if Bummer wasn't owed at least $6.75 million, he'd be looking over his shoulder right now.
  9. Bummer was good for about a season and a half. Bad things happen when he comes into the game.
  10. He can take Bummer with him. But Rick Hahn is also a hero to the Bummer family. They owe him at least $6.75 million after this year.
  11. He's not much better at 2B.
  12. Any chance they send Robert down to learn the coach's names?
  13. You would think with what's beein happening over a year now, they would want to do something for their base. Instead, its just the opposite. It's been before Covid where they really went the extra mile for season ticketholders, so the newer accounts might not notice. But I'm sure the long term people are scratching their heads.
  14. I am so glad I cancelled my partial season tickets. A friend of mine still has them. They used to have parties, and events for season ticketholders, now they are trying to bleed even more money out of them. Like the bad play isn't enough. Apparently, Season Ticketholder "Appreciation" Week is coming up. You can be part of a pre game parade around the field. Don't have a ticket to that particular game? The Sox will sell you one. Also if you buy tickets to another game, they will throw in a patio party. However, if you already have a ticket to that game, you will have to pay for the patio party. What in the wide wide world of sports is going on over there?
  15. Despite the results, he's right, everyone else is wrong. I wonder how those ladies felt sitting up their after just purchasing the teams, having new ideas instead of thinking it's still 1981, and Jerry up there basically saying new people are clueless. I wonder if Jerry ever figured out the woman owning a women's soccer team has more season ticketholders than he does.
  16. Festivus must be a week long event at the Reinsdorf home. Jerry seems to want to air a lot of grievances. He calls other owners dumb, yet has a bloated payroll and an 8-21 record after 81-81 during his sustained winning time.
  17. It's BS. Even for the White Sox.
  18. Romy Gonzalez almost made a routine catch in LF yesterday. So that's a positive. It reminded me of the story Wimpy told one time where I think it was Greg Luzinski played the Johnny Carson character Karnac. If anyone ever saw it, he opens an envelope with an answer and he then gives the question. The answer was catch 22. The question was what would Ron Kittle do if you hit him 100 fly balls?
  19. AJ Pollock had a buyout on this years' payroll. Nice move Rick.
  20. Only 4 homers his last 400 PA. Basically Leury Garcia’s pace. I loved him as a player and person, but it was time for him to move along, and he got a ton of money. My question would be do we really know how old he is? A year or two off at this stage is a huge deal.
  21. I was watching the game with my dad, and he asked when Bummer was giving up runs in the 9th why there still was anyone there. I said I have no idea. They knew what they were doing.
  22. It was a fun win. But bad relief pitching, horrible defense…really there is no hope for much of a turnaround for this team.
  23. Do you really think MLB and thr AL would abandon Chicago all because Jerry Reinsdorf ran his team like a Subway Franchise? It's a sleeping giant.
  24. OF tickets sold for $1 on Stubhub today.
