If Adam Eaton gets back to his 2019 version and most everyone else hits as expected, everything should be fine from an offensive standpoint.

I think Joc is a better bet, but he doesn't fit into JR's budget, and who knows, that team option Eaton agreed to might have been the deal maker. I don't know if Joc would sign up for something like that at his age.

I doubt it, it's the Gold Coast Dogs at Union Station. Those guys work their asses off. They deserve more than $15 an hour.

He was ridden hard and put away wet at the end last year. I hope he isn't the second coming of Billy Koch.

There are some places a pizza puff and fries will be close to $10.

If the White Sox sign Michael Brantley now, either Eloy or Vaughn is getting traded. Brantley isn’t signing for one year, and they aren’t going to block Vaughn for 2 years.

Trump today said it was terrific the US is up to 15% of its citizens having contracted the coronavirus.

Most of his teammates loved him but he had some detractors. Of course some were back in the days when it was all racism, but Dick wasn’t always innocent. I read he was sent home 3 times for showing up hungover, and unable to play. Most teams have their fair share of guys who aren’t necessarily guys you want as next door neighbors. I just think the Eaton stuff has run its course. 2005 zoom meeting last year talked about a fight between AJP and Carl Everett when Everett had his kid in the clubhouse after the deadline. Yet somehow that team still won. Eaton isn’t going to poison the team. He might suck, but that is the risk you take when you budget $7 million in free agency for the position.

If Lynn want to test the market but leads the White Sox to a WS, signs a 3 year $55 million contract with the Angels next winter, and sucks for them sorry, that’s a win. Good processes lead to wins, no doubt. But ultimately you are judged by wins. Extending 34 year olds Isn’t necessarily a good process.

Eloy will be in year 3.Moncada, TA, Abreu, Grandal all vets. Robert would need a translator to have an idea what he is saying. Madrigal doesn’t seem like a guy who will be bothered by this. Vaughn seems like his own man. If he was as poison as some want to think, to fit in their narrative, the White Sox wouldn’t have paid him the money. They know him better than we do. There are going to be similarly priced guys. At his price point , he probably was the best choice. I think Dahl might have been even a better call as he was cheaper, and yong and controlled.

I wonder how the Nats were able to overcome Eatons assholeness and win a WS,

It is not if they win.

Yes but I am thinking it was a different excretion than normal for a man at his advanced age.

I’m pretty sure Hawk had to change his drawers hearing the Eaton news.

Payton actually played QB in at least one game for the Bears. He wasn’t the starter, and it was basically a wildcat, but he was the QB.

I just wish people would get over Eaton saying something obnoxious sticking up for a 10 year old kid. If he is an asshole, he’s an asshole. There have been several everyone has cheered for.

Which is weird since it is what the dear leader considers his crowning achievement. The republicans had a hearing today featuring anti-vaxxers, anti maskers, anti-social distancers. It is just bizarre. The only purpose seems to be to make Biden’s job harder? Why is this exclusively a US problem?

Adam Eaton is the biggest asshole who ever lived, and anything that suggests any different is just fake. Fake news. I don't think Adam Eaton is everyone's cup of tea, but I really doubt everyone hates him.

You should get some sort of commission. If you send a Late night comedian a joke and they use it, they send you a check. You are owed.

When he lost in the Iowa caucus, he accused Ted Cruz of cheating and wanted a re-do. You know it's going to happen. Why is this guy placated? Why do these politicians adopt his craziness? it's absolutely insane. One of my best friends who I have been best friends with since we were 6 years old is now a Trumper. I cannot deal with him. He won't wear a mask. They election is stolen....He always was a republican who believed in smaller government, less taxes. But he was normal. Now he's nuts. I would love to hang out with him, but the craziness always comes up. i don't try anymore. i avoid him like the plaque. Hopefully in a year or so he will be de-programmed.

And I would bet the White Sox told him not to talk about LaRussa.

LaRussa took one look at this picture and told RH this is Dewey Lamar Hoyt II. Bring him in.

Eaton batted .320 in the 2019 World Series for the Nats, hitting two homers with six RBIs in helping Washington win its first title.

Get more pitchers. The White Sox have never had too many good pitchers. If somehow they wound up with too many, there are plenty of teams that would take them off their hands.
