Fire Rick Hahn
I like the way you think.

Why did the downfall happen and could it have been avoided?
Counting on the same players who are often injured year after year, for some crazy reason, hasn't quite worked out.

That's another k0pech white sox winner
Kopech is looking good. Nice win.

Why did the downfall happen and could it have been avoided?
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.

Why did the downfall happen and could it have been avoided?
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.

5/23 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM
Huge DP

5/23 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM
They should have another run or 2. That sometimes comes back to bite you in the ass.

5/23 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM
I just think he had a bad game.

5/23 Sox @ Guardians 5:10PM
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.

Fire Rick Hahn
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.

Aaron Hicks
He's sucked so bad for a while. I don't see the point. He isn't going to get better.

5/22 White Sox @ Guardians. First pitch at 5:10. Lambert vs. Gaddis
It’s the lake that caught fire around there .

You wouldn’t know it by the result, but the iPitch made the trip to Cleveland.

Frazier to be called up
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.

Frazier to be called up
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
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.
-
Garrett Crochet called up
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.
-
Garrett Crochet called up
I have no idea how anyone could think Crochet could possibly hold up as a starter.
-
Who would you actually pay to watch hit?
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.

Celebrate Luis Robert
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.

Fire Rick Hahn
I agree, never really open or open just a small crack. As to Rick not meeting the press. If he is ill or he has some family obligation, like maybe he has a child graduating, then not doing it was fine. If he just wants to avoid it, it shows another reason why he shouldn't have the job. Either way, fire Rivk Hahn
