It’s not true.

There are lots of ways to improve the roster. One would have been actually spending the international bonus pool money and maybe hitting on a lesser known. When you’re in a rebuild, it may be throwing money away but less than giving Manny Machado’s friends 8 figures combined. And he was letting everyone know how trades were going to happen and he’s being hearing interesting ideas, blah, blah, blah…who knew Franklin German would be his only trade. The whole thing was a bill of goods. Teams with sustained winning always get more expensive and usually quite quickly. Winning means playing well. Playing well means getting paid. If they aren’t willing to cover their recent mistakes with a little more payout, they were never serious about sustained winning and multiple LOL championships. As to KW, I think he has only a year or two left . His wife retired from NBC 5 last year, and he has said he’s on his last contract. So hopefully his leaving will spur some real change because the verdict is in, they don’t have the right people building the team under JRs restrictions. I do think Hahn could possibly build a sustained contender if Steve Cohen was his owner. A few others are far more successful under these conditions. It might not be win a WS, but have fun team that wins most of the time with multiple playoff appearances will do. It’s not like White Sox fans are conditioned for World Series win or bust.

JR loved it. He saved a ton of money.

Based on their moves, the White Sox front office, whether they would ever say so or not, are blaming all the shortcomings on LaRussa. They really have done very little to upgrade a tea mired in mediocrity.

They used to have a lot of perks being a season ticket holder. Parties, meet and greets, other things. They pretty much eliminated all of that. So, I am thinking just like you, it doesn’t make sense unless they are great and make the playoffs. In that case, you can commit to a year in September and get playoff tickets.

No, but not too exciting.

When's the press conference?.

Rick Hahn has owned the off season. I misunderstood before. This had to be one the interesting trade ideas he was sharing with teams in San Diego.

Definitely will make the 500 level in the outfield a destination.

Think how small it must be.

Maybe it will inspire others.

F? They got a LF and a wife beater. I wonder what happened to all the trades Hahn was going to make.

I often listen to the police scanner in my area. broadcastify .com for those interested. I live in the 18th district of Chicago. The amount of calls that go without a response or a delayed response for hours, would shock you. About a month ago, they had a domestic call, and no one went over there for at least 2 hours, and when they did, everyone was gone.

What type of person makes something like that up?

Alexy......yes, yes, yes, yes.

I didn't renew. I forgot my rep's name during the season. He didn't send me one email for about a year, then like you, I started getting them almost daily. If I had only know they were building a bar with 8 seats to watch a game in a really bad section..............

They emphasized they spent the same as they had spent on Carlos Rodon a year earlier.

He was accused of beating the mother of his child and either spitting tobacco or throwing a wad of tobacco on his infant before he ever put on a White Sox uniform.

You saw him drop a flyball on opening day.

This day in Sox history, January 29th 2023, the White Sox did nothing.

They can sell passes to a pre game parade followed by a chat with Rick Hahn. As Rick would say, another box checked.

What I think will happen is Clevinger will be put on some sort of leave, he will get suspended eventually,who knows for how long. I would think not as long as Bauer not as short as Ozuna. When his suspension is over, the Sox will release him and try every legal mean possible not to give him a dime, which is perfectly acceptable to me. But you never know. The Braves have kept Ozuna around through a wife beating in front of cops and a DUI. But he has multiple years on the contract.

Don’t each of those guys usually miss significant time during the season?

Hahn should get Marcel Ozuna. He has wife beating and a DUI to his credit.

I think it’s best they tell him to stay home until it’s figured out, if that is an option. His paychecks don’t start until after the season starts anyway, so that buys a little more time.
