  1. When Frank Thomas was struggling after Hrniak was let go, he would go see him.
  2. Boy has the Sox "networking" worked so well over the years.
  3. It’s happening.Caulfield will soon own a Chinese knockoff Dodgers hat. Can’t beat em, join em.
  4. Funny thing is Ricketts took advantage of that and sold a small part of the team to fund all the renovations.
  5. Now many summer home night games will officially be over before dark, than just over.
  6. Plenty of blame to go around, just not with the guy who was supposedly in charge. Keep telling your Chris Getz bobblehead that.
  7. He’s a JR with the Bulls owner. Will spend money to a point. Luxury Tax is a big line in the sand. He may go a few thousand over, but that’s about it. NBA is different. The teams that don’t go over split the tax money. If they did that in MLB, Ricketts would never be near the line.
  8. Yep. The cash registers are ringing almost 24 hours a day during the season.
  9. I have no idea if Nicky is or will be a good hitting coach. One thing I do know, if he didn’t have his cup of coffee with the White Sox, he would have a different job now, and that, in the past, has been a huge problem. So the skepticism should be understood. I do believe he is a coach’s son, so he may have some of that in his DNA.
  10. It happened. Ricketts used the old JR line on the Cubs fans . We just try to break even every year.
  11. Maybe Jared Kelly can reinvent himself as a catcher.
  12. It's where Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson live. It has to be cool.
  13. Cubs are dumping their City Connect unis and going with a baby blue Expos road uni knockoff.
  14. Bannister will make him an All Star. Getz has a plan.
  15. He had the highest payroll in the division in 2024 when he set the record for losses.
  16. Why doesn't JR feel like HE has an obligation to do what's best for the other investors, unless running the team into the ground is for the best?
  17. That's boring. He should want to come to the White Sox. Getz is building correctly. This team should get to close to .500 by the time the better players have to be traded because they will soon be free agents.
  18. He's got a plan.Not buying what he's selling is boring.
  19. It’s possible but not probable and not many get a chance at more responsibility when they didn’t handle the smaller load. The Sox made minor league staff changes every year Getz was there. What changed for the better? Was Josh Barfield the reason the DBacks got hot and made the playoffs in 2023? Maybe he’s upgrade. Maybe he’s not. It wasn’t too long ago when the thought was everone in the Sox front office was bad at their job except Rick Hahn. I just don’t know why it makes me any less of a Sox fan to think the guy who failed up to his current job and GMd the team with the most losses ever , needs to prove he knows what he’s doing before getting excited about what he says. I wish they would telivise the q and a at Soxfest and see how he reacts yo not so friendly fire.
  20. Yeah, what an exciting time to be a White Sox fan. 222 losses in 2 seasons isn’t boring at all.
  21. He changed it, but all we know is it's different. We don't know if it's right. The Bears swapped out their Ryan's and Matt's a few years ago. It hasn't meant better results. I still think Getz wasn't the right guy for the job. I know it was everyone else's fault he couldn't develop s%*#, but he should have some responsibility, or wlwehe was just a coffee boy, and even less qualified for his current position.
  22. Mine too. The Bears interviewing everybody and anybody shows there is a problem. They should have been able to figure out what they are looking for and pair it down to 4 or 5 people. The fact that they are wasting time interviewing Ron Rivera makes me think in the end we might all be saying WTF?
