August 14 Game Thread, White Sox vs Yankees
This would be a nice win. I think the Sox only have 6 or 7 wins when the other team scores first.

August 14 Game Thread, White Sox vs Yankees
Schriffen actually questioned why people aren’t talking about Nicky Lopez offensive production. Sullivan is right. The broadcast is pure gaslighting.

Schriffen doesn’t know where LF is.

Jake Burger trade
They let Hostetler run the draft then re-assigned him. It's the White Sox way.

Jake Burger trade
What do you think is more likely, Jake Eder is a contributor for the Chicago White Sox, or Jake Eder has a future with the Chicago Dogs? I think the safe assumption is the latter. It was a bad trade. You are one of the Burger haters, but at least he's been good since the trade. The guy the Sox got for him? Not so much.

Jake Burger trade
He is cheap offense. Something this team desperately needs. Instead, the Sox have a soon to be 26 year old with a 10.00 ERA in AAA.

Schriffen says he was aiming at “Sportscasters”
Wow, Sullivan going after JR then Schriffen during the same week. Good for him Sox fans deserve better.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
It's stil a terrible team, but without king of all losers at the helm, it's a much better product.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
The Yankees probably should have had about 10 runs by the end of the 3rd. When they didn't you had to figure it was the Sox night. 3 games without Pedro, 2 with the most hits of the season. Go figure.

Too busy taking down signs to stop crap like this.

The game is so different. I used to play Strat-o-matic as a kid. I loved homers, hits and walks. Dave Kingman was a whiff machine back in the day. But his career high was 156, which is close to the pace Andrew Vaughn is on this year, and whiff machine doesn't even cross my mind thinking of him.

I love how security thinks it's impossible to get a sell the team sign in. The guy should have told him he packed it under his gun. Amazing how that story just went away.

Getz interview...
Of course people with no clue, would be crazy to give some sort of timeline.He and the team owe the fanbase some sort of explanation , and when they believe they should have this fixed. If you remember, this guy was hired because they couldn’t waste a year, and he would have this built back faster than anyone else.Perhaps the best rebuild of the JR era had a timeline they actually beat by a season, when Himes built a team that was supposed to be ready to contend when they moved to what then was the new park.

8/10 Sox vs. Cubs 6:15PM
Gavin Sheets hasn’t hit a homer in 2 1/2 months, and only has 6 doubles during that time. I don’t understand why he is on the roster, but if he must play, does he have to hit in the middle of the order?

Moncada and Clevinger "returned from rehab assignments"
To ,me, playing baseball never really seemed like a passion to him. I could be way off. But after his upcoming buyout and his initial signing bonus, he will have been paid over $100 million to play baseball. I can’t see him getting more than a million or two next year with any team. Is that enough to keep him playing? I wonder if he is done with the sport.

Moncada and Clevinger "returned from rehab assignments"
It doesn’t benefit the Sox at all if he comes back this year. I wouldn’t even waste team resources on him. Tell him to go home and if he ever feels up to giving it a shot call the Sox back. Or just release him and let him pick his own rehab.The distrust with the tam goes back a long time. I remember Lorenzo Barcelo. He was supposed to be the crown jewel in the White Flag trade. KW was calling him a p**** because he said he was injured and the team disagreed. Turned out he eventually needed elbow and shoulder surgery.

Stone not sure he will be back in 25, season "wearing on him"
He’s become nothing more than a shill for JR.

Getz interview...
I think these guys asked great questions. The problem was, Getz danced around them. They specifically asked for a timeline. Said family members were worried they would be dead before the Sox were good again. That’s a very real question. Getz first laughed, then danced. In other words he has no idea when he thinks the Sox will be good again. At least they didn’t waste this season.

The Dawning of the Age of Sizemore/ Sox vs Cubs game thread 7:10 first pitch 8/9/24
Ecksein had a career .701 OPS. He would bat clean up for this joke.

Pedro Grifol, Charlie Montoyo, Eddie Rodriguez, & Mike Tosar Fired (Grady Sizemore interim manager)
I know Sammy is young and all that for his level. But there just is not a lot of big time major league contributors who hit under .200 in a minor league season.

The Sox aren't spending "right now"
It would take the biggest turnaround of all time to get them into contention. Not from these clowns.
-
Pedro Grifol, Charlie Montoyo, Eddie Rodriguez, & Mike Tosar Fired (Grady Sizemore interim manager)
Don't forget the lockdown bullpen you told us he built, and how Nastrini was going to be great because of Spring Training. 28-89. Getz sucks. Expansion teams do better.
-
Pedro Grifol, Charlie Montoyo, Eddie Rodriguez, & Mike Tosar Fired (Grady Sizemore interim manager)
Getz fired his manager because he thought he had a roster that should win more games. yes Pedro and his idiot friends suck. But Getz is the GM for a team that may be historically bad. For that, he deserves the same fate he gave Pedro.

The Sox aren't spending "right now"
JR doesn’t spend on the players that help you win, He’d rather think Nicky Lopez helps you get to the playoffs just as much as Ohtani. That isn’t changing, and this time he’s kind of fucked because people were behind his previous rebuild and he had players fans bought into. Now they won’t buy into those players until they win, and they won’t win until JR spends.
