No one is around to get the fax. They are at the store getting all their video converted to VHS.

Total tease. When you have to have a meeting and tell the entire team there needs to be more fire, you can temporarily get some. It's not permanent. They will lose at least 2 out of 3 this weekend, and be back to where they were when everyone got excited because they beat up an awful Detroit team, and had 2 unlikely comebacks vs. Houston.

2022 Chicago White Sox. One base ar a time.

5 singles scores 2, so 25 singles. Already have 2.

God Bless my wife. She just saw the score and texted me. She asked me if they could come back.

The fact that they are so in the White Sox heads speaks volumes.

You'll show em

The only thing left for today is to have a good player get injured down 10.

Maybe Vince can develop another blister to keep him away from the mound for a while.

Remember when the Sox replaced Rodon with Villasquez? That was awesome .

To borrow and old JR line, anyone who thinks this team can catch Cleveland is crazy

Bummer or Crick to the 60 day. 40 man roster solved.

Can't they just move Bummer to the 60 day?

True. In the NBA though, it is different. If you get waived, and another team signs you, you get your guarantee from the team that waived you, and what you signed for. A raise for sucking so much, a team would rather pay you not to be around.

non contenders aren't going to sign him , why even pick up a minimal expense. Most contenders are pretty set at SS. Andrus doesn't have many options. He'll get time now, and if he earns it, he can play 2B when TA gets back. Most other places, he's riding pine most of the time. Would probably start for a little while in Tampa, but once Franco gets back, he might get sent home.

Yes but he is going to want to go to a place he will play a lot.

It's a tough spot to put a kid with barely any experience above AA in. I wouldn't give up on him at all. But he needs to be eased in. I think Andrus, even though he really isn't very good anymore, will outplay him the next 3 to 5 weeks until TA comes back.

If he's been released, he's gone through waivers. Sometimes they jump the gun and say he's been released when he still needs to go through waivers and there is no chance he will be claimed. So we really don't know if the Sox could sign him today, but RH is getting a semi mulligan here. He can't fail on this.

You have a point.

Andrus is the guy they need until TA comes back. He sucks, but less than what they put out there now, and less than whatever else they could put together. The guy actually has a decent WAR.

VV is Tony waving the White flag tonight.

It's being implied that he is talking about the White Sox. That is what the thread is about. And he sure does sound like he's found Nirvana playing for a last place team that supposedly wants to win, but acquired him for a contract dump.

He's not good enough to be on the team he apparently has a problem with. Same with Keuchel. The guy is apparently happier playing out the string, than playing for a team that at least has a shot at the playoffs. What does that say about Spanky?

How can it not be accurate? He couldn't beat out Zavala.

Generally, teams what to keep their useful players. They exposed Zavala to waivers eariler this year. No one claimed him. Now they would rather have him than McGuire. The Blue Jays would rather have Collins than McGuire. Soon, the Red Sox will rather have another below average catcher than McGuire.
