  1. Totally agree. But JR wants to do things his and Tony’s way. Tony ruined the DBacks. Went to Boston, helped Dombrowski get fired, and went to the Angels and didn’t help. Now has contributed to making the White Sox a laughingstock.
  2. Unless something starts happening soon, I agree. Trading 5 or 6 guys on the 25 man roster at the deadline isn’t practical for several reasons.
  3. I just don’t see him taking it. He wouldn’t make a lot of money. He makes decent money with a cushy job with Fox and his podcast. Can watch his son play. He knows the White Sox are doomed for a while. He knows when it comes time, JR shuts his wallet. OTOH, it wouldn’t take much to show a little progress.
  4. Bob saying AJP would be a candidate for Pedro’s job when even JR feels he has to can him. So the must be ex Royals experiment has come to an end . Back to must be ex White Sox.
  5. Pedro is preparing them to kick Seattles ass.
  6. At least the players like each other. This team is a joke.
  7. The Sox will be trying to tie the franchise record for their longest losing streak tomorrow. It was set earlier this season.
  8. I hear you there, I just think it’s an idle threat. If he’s healthy he would pitch.
  9. Has anyone in the history of baseball refused to pitch in the playoffs without an extension?
  10. Playing with fire. What could go wrong?
  11. Exactly. Same with Crochet tomorrow.
  12. I just find it hard to believe Crochet would actually refuse to pitch in the playoffs.
  13. No he should have acquired someone who can hit. I said during spring training I would have my pitchers throw Robert sliders off the plate, and if you walk him a few times, so what? It was obvious from the get go this team scoring more than 2 or 3 runs would be a challenge.
  14. Other than you and Getz and some others in the White Sox organization, no one is shocked they all got hurt, and at the same time. Chris told us the AL Cenral was going to help for a quick bounce back. Check the standings. 23.5 out of 4th place.
  15. Youre trying to have it both ways. Youtold us 3 guys who always get hurt getting hurt at the same time was the big reason they were so bad. Now these are guys he was stuck with is the reason. Getz is bad. Any other team would have fired him by now. Of course, they never would have hired him in the first place. I do think after the deadline, the Sox should release Eloy and Mobada. It makes no sense giving them ABs moving forward, and maybe they can find a better situation for themselves.
  16. Getz echoed JR when he was hired saying the weak ALC was something that was going yo make his job a bit easier. Here we are, almost a year later, and except for the Marlins Chris team is farther out of 4th place in the ALC than any other team is out of first place. Can’t waste a year.
  17. He also might be in the exact same spot he is right now, except a rookie.
  18. I get that, but as a Sox fan, I hope Getz doesn't cave in too much. They have to hit on these trades, or they are going to be bad for a long, long time.
  19. I kind of like this guy. Wanted the Sox to sign him when he was a free agent really bad.
  20. 2021 he would have been in the minors. 2022 he was injured, and last season he was available for about 20 innings. He wouldn't be making 4-5 million now, and he would have at least 2 years less service time.
  21. It got him a major league paycheck right away, and with his surgery, he would have made nothing. He has more money now than he would have had if the Sox made him a starter on day 1.
