How is JR’s new stadium coming along? -

He’s very similar to Chris Getz. Maybe he’ll be the Sox GM some day. -

Why? The 3 musketeers will be back together soon. -

The broadcast making excuses is ridiculous. If he’s really fatigued, why the f*** is he pitching? -
Like Jerry said, can’t waste a year.

Moncada might play again. Nobody cares
Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
We were told by a poster who knows way more than us, the reason the Sox suck so bad was they had 3 guys who always get hurt, get hurt all together and early. 2 have come back and the Sox continue to lose at a record clip. So it figures we should be excited about Moncadas return. He is obviously the key piece to this team. They will start winning if he is healthy, like you’ve never seen before. -
Sox to start managing Crochet’s workload
Dick Allen replied to WhiteSox2023's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I read somewhere where a team would make him a closer, then ramp him up a little at the end of the season so he could start in the postseason. -
BTW, Patrick Williams has still not recovered from his surgery.

Yeah buddy

No, but he shouldn't treat it like he's broadcasting the favorites to win the WS. I posted this the other day, if you listen to him describe the White Sox, you wonder how they ever lose a game, when the reality is, you wonder how they ever win a game. I've also said, if the White sox had the team a couple of years ago most of us thought they would have, I'd enjoy most of his schtick.
-
I will give him he has a next to impossible job. But give the audience a little credit understanding what they are seeing. If he truly respects his audience, he has to know they deserve better.

I am sure he's a nice guy, and I really want to like his calls, and probably would if the Sox were 67-26. But it's just too much. In the last 4 games I have actually heard him say he thought the now 41 games under .500 White Sox could get back in the race, and was marveling at how valuable Martin Maldonado was navigaing a rookie pitcher theough a 2/3 inning 4 run outing. What is he talking about? i get you are supposed to fluff things up a bit, but when you go obnoxious, you lose any credibility.
-
i just want him to become Baltimore's GM. I think the Sox could get their top 5 prospects for Maldonado and Lopez if that were the case. Maybe throw in Sheets as a kicker. I just wish at some point, someone sit down with him, probably Brooks, and explain to him that 26-67 is really, really bad. The people listening and watching now, are not that dumb.

7/8 Sox vs Twins, time for Flexual Healing
Dick Allen replied to Heads22's topic in 2024 Season in Review
To me with ll his either fake enthusiasm or if it’s real, over enthusiasm. Schriffen is a lot easier for me to listen to, since the team is so bad, when they are losing, than when they are winning. -

Dick Allen replied to Heads22's topic in 2024 Season in Review
I kind of agree, but he is already 25, so he will probably be one of those guys that is really good one year and really bad the next. -

Schriffen actually used the that’s what makes Martin Maldonado so valuable helping Leasure navigate 2 outs and 4 runs. He’s a stooge. -

Great managing and pitch calling there. -

Schriffen sounds like Lloyd Christmas. -

Pedro would cry if the Sox got rid of Anderson. He has him up almost every game. Close games, blowouts, it doesn't matter.

When was the last time a team really made out on the return of a sign and trade?

GMs skeptical teams meet price for Robert
Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Trade Winds 2024
6 or 7 years is probably accurate, but with a good front office, and scouting, and development staff, it could take half of that. Larry Himes drafted Black Jack 5th, then got The Boy Wonder 10th, which is exactly where they will be after next years draft. Got the Big Hurt 7th....they were ready to go, and then added young Alex 4th. Competent vs. JR yes men. That stretch lead to perhaps the best sustained success during JR's ownership. Then the strike happened, and they started operating their current style. -
He intentionally walked someone to get to Burger.

Elias didn't shutdown trade of Holliday
Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Trade Winds 2024
if they trade Holliday, there's something messed up with him. The only way he's available is if he makes all Rick Hahn's busts look like potential HOFers.
