Colson Montgomery to AZ Complex
It doesn't say much when Jacob Amaya is right now a better baseball player than a guy the organization has been touting and we have anxiously awaiting for a couple of lean years.

Colson Montgomery to AZ Complex
It would help their reputation a bit if someone once every 10 years or so, comes out of their system looking like they know how to hit.

Nothing to worry about. The Sox have a hitting guru.

Schriffen will make it seem like it's heading to the concourse.

Comcast was in business with these teams and each team let themselves go to hell. They aren’t going to take on risk being in business with them again.

Sox acquire Workman
They probably had a defibrillator on hand when they told him. It used to be all the Cubans. Now it’s all the rule 5s.

Sox to use Opener against A's
Unless you have elite starting pitchers, why wouldn't you use an opener the vast majority of the time? You are going to use the bullpen anyway. If you get the opposite handedness, it forces the other manager's hand, and his bench is either blown in the 3rd inning or your opener is going to be R/R or L/L for the most part.

April 24 Gamethread Sox @ Twins 12:10
If the White Sox play .500 the rest of the season, they will only lose 88 games. 6 teams did worse in 2024.

April 24 Gamethread Sox @ Twins 12:10
Generally, Building a team off the waiver wire and minor league contracts because no other team will give them a major league contract, gets you more losses than you thought possible. I get that the White Sox have to be bad. But do they really have to keep being this bad?

You have got to be bleeping me, Wegner.

Bobby Dalbec added to roster, Meidroth to 10-day IL, Martín Pérez to 60-day IL
When the White Sox give you a $5 million contract, you will either suck so bad no one will want you, or you will get so hurt no one will want you.

The saddest thing is, the White Sox and Bulls obviously and the Blackhawks have known for a year or two what was going down with Comcast, yet, just like their teams, they weren't prepared.

Usually a reasonable assumption, but this is the White Sox. Eloy "played" RF. He couldn't play LF.

Martin Perez pitching like Martin Perez. That’s unfortunate.

Fire Chris Getz
12-25 41-121 4-14 Since Getz failed upward, the chart is still going down, so he might not be wrong.

Just remember you can’t waste a year.

Gamethread?
The extra 20 lbs Vargas put on is going to make him an all star.

Fire Chris Getz
Getz is historic. He got to 100 games below .500 as a GM faster than Pedro did as a manager.

Offense is just trash
Sox 2-3-4 hitters today are all hitting under .150. The hitting guru Getz hired because he was lucky enough the Orioles fired him, is already paying off.

Roster movies: Quero, Benintendi to Chicago, Narvaez DFA'd, Jones to AAA
If Chris Getz and anyone he hires can't fix him, he can't be fixed. But seriously, didn't he start out hot last season as well?

Murderer's row. This is supposed to be the major leagues.

Atletic story on front offices...
They obviously didn't speak to Gene Watson who said the White Sox front office is the best in baseball.

Ownership Change Will Result In . . .
Who knows, but can it get worse? JR isn't going to lead this team out of the abyss.. The one thing most would get out of it, at least initially, is hope.
