  1. Not only did he not land Machado, he blew 8 figures on his worthless friends. He spend $15 million on Leury Garcia. I know one thing, if Rick was ever homeless, Leury's family would take care of him.
  2. I agree with about 99% of this. Especially at the end. If your job is making you physically ill, and not pleasant to be around, every career counselor would tell you to find another position. We need a rogue beat writer today to ask Hahn how much of this failure he pins on himself, and don't let him get away with a non answer.
  3. It’s not game over is a lie. No team has ever started 7-18 and made the playoffs. They have always said you can’t win a title in April, but you can lose one. They lost one.
  4. He will say they are not off to the start they imagined. Mention injuries. Say they should get a couple of guys back soon. They still believe in the team and the coaching staffs ability to get the most out of them. Mention that they have dug themselves a hole, but the good news is there is still time to get themselves out of it. Will say they are always looking for ways to improve. You know, the same s%*# he says every year..
  5. I thought this team would at least have a 4 or 5 year run of being really good and perhaps longer. It ended with the LaRussa hire, and is only getting worse. It’s almost hard to believe how bad they are. But there is no secret as to why they aren’t scoring. Robert leading off then hitting 3rd the way he’s going. Andrus leading off? That incompetence making out the line up card. They still would have lost most likely. But a team struggling, watching them go down so easily in the first inning can deflate the team. I have no idea what Pedro is thinking here other than please fire me, I want to go home.
  6. That truly is if not the best , certainly in the top 2 or 3 Chicago Sports Radio call ins of all time, and all he did was tell the truth. Passionately. Hahn, KW and JR have done this to thousands of Sox fans. Go away. Let someone who may be competent give it a go. You clearly are not.
  7. The only way Theo came to the White Sox is if he was part of some ownership group that bought the team.
  8. The 7-18 start ties the worst record through the first 25 games under JRs ownership with the 1886 team which featured the Hawkeroo at GM and Tony LaRussa getting fired. 3 other White Sox teams started 8-17. 1997, 2001, and 2018. The last time the Sox had fewer than 7 win in their first 25 games was in 1950. They will try, but there is no way to spin this. It’s complete and utter failure.
  9. They lost a lot of tickets last winter, and this start that makes the entire season irrelevant will take its toll on in season sales. They will salary dump to save JR some losses. They will just take whatever they can get for some guys. Wouldn’t surprise me if they take less for someome like Gio or TA if they take a Lynn and/or Diekman. 188-199 since Hahn basically blew off the 2021-22 offseason despite obvious holes.
  10. The thing that sucks is we all knew this team had flaws. But they are in a division where you can have several flaws but still play lots of meaningful games. During what should be one of the peak seasons of their window, they will go the entire 2023 season without playing a meaningful game.
  11. When will the Sox announce the cancellation of Soxfest? they not only think very little of their fans, they are afraid of them. They might say mean things like you are not good at your job that pays you millions.
  12. I would think they will do better than that, but the draft guys should be happy. There is no way this team isn't picking in the top 10, and probably top 5.
  13. There is no way JR gives anyone the authority or cash money Theo would require.
  14. Rick can't really believe he's a good GM can he?
  15. It's almost like he's thinking one of tow things. Either you should have hired me, or thank God you didn't hire me.
  16. If the entire organization isn't embarrassed by the effort in Toronto, they don't deserve to be an MLB franchise. If Robert could be sent down without being exposed, send his ass down. Same with anyone else. It's total BS what's going on.
  17. Since KW popped off, the Sox have pounded out 8 hits. All singles in 2 games.
  18. I'm beginning to think they heard exactly what they wanted to hear from Pedro. Not about his style, but about their players.
  19. Their lack of much action the last couple of offseasons and trade deadline last year indicates they seem to think they have a pretty stacked roster. If it's stacked and youre 7-18, the manager and coaching staff have to go.
  20. If you have a roster you think is a contender, absolutely. If the roster isn't a contender, and is as bad as teams you had when you were trying to lose, you need to fix the front office.
  21. Sosa, Romy and Elvis in the 8th. Murders' Row.
  22. He pulled that last trade deadline when he did nothing. In reality, it probably was for the best, because he more than likely would have made the team worse then, and worse now. WHEN CAN WE EXPECT ACCOUNTABILITY?
  23. No matter what in life, when people start to spin, there is a big problem.
  24. I liked the Pedro hire. I loved how he talked about preparation and going out and kicking the opponent's ass every night. Obviously, he can't execute. So either it's either the players or the staff. If it's the players, Hahn and KW need to go. If it's the staff, they need to be replaced while you can still salvage something. Which is it? TBH, it's probably a lot of both.
  25. Rick Hahn saying some fans hope the rebuild fails so they can say I told you so....They have been saying I told you so since he took over, and have been right. No real Sox fan is really enjoying this. It fucking sucks. Last year sucked. You wait 6 months and hope things will be better, and the season is over and it's still 40 degrees outside. Resign Rick.
