DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
Singing him to flip at the deadline doesn't make sense. he was flipped at the deadline last year for about the same return. Then released twice. He is who he is. Maybe he runs into one at the right time with the Royals at some point, but he isn't going to help them, and the Sox return shows they and the Royals know that.

DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
At one point, they thought Sosa was ready. They thought Ramos was ready. What makes DeJong and Lopez more special than Romy Gonzalez? The problem is, the White Sox front office is as overmatched as their manager and coaching staff, and their roster. Colas isn't playing but Pham is. If you aren't going to get anything for Pham why sign him or why trade him? Why play Eloy any more? Why not let the younger OFs play a little and DH. Let Eloy go and let him find a team for the minimum. Do the same with Moncada, unless he would rather be done rehabbing first. But they won't

DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
Lopez, DeJong, Pham, they all performed about as expected or even slightly better. Maldonaldo was about what everyone thought except the Wihite Sox. Brebbia was injured, and probably a bit worse. All these guys that took time from kids was useless and a waste. A waste of a year.

The one positive with that is if JR would wake up and hire a real GM, and let him sign him or trade him. But that won't happen.

DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
Really? Thy won 61 games last year, and can only pick as high as 10. Historically awful was the goal? We were told they cannot waste a year.

DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
Not only that but 50 games of Paul DeJong. This is nothing for nothing, although Schriffen will be upset. he thought DeJong had Ohtani power.

It's the White Sox. Holding grudges is their thing.

I wonder if he will be in the line up tonight.

Now do the Sox get Salvy?

I tend to agree. A couple of months of 3 and 4 inning outings isn't going to get anyone to up their offer. he'll be making more coin. And there is always a possibilty he gets hurt. With Getz going public, you would think the relationship isn't right for an extension.

He just made some friends with STL and LA.

Trade thoughts
I'd love AJP to get Tommy Pham on his podcast and see what he really thinks about the White Sox.

So public opinion ma Total BS. If he really was worried what the fans think, he would have resigned months ago.

Trevor Rodgers to BAL
There's another, and he's even better because he couldn't hit before he got here or after he left.

Trevor Rodgers to BAL
Yes he would. Good call. That was 10 years ago. Quentin was 16 years ago. The World Series was 19 years ago. For the love of God JR, if you don't want to sell the team, at least give up control.

The streak has reached 21. Raise a glass.
Maybe. I just don't think Getz is clever enough to think getting his bosses fired for incompetence would lead to a big promotion even though he wasn't competent.

Trevor Rodgers to BAL
Can someone name one guy who hasn't hit somewhere else, who then came to the White Sox and raked in the last 10 years.? Kory Lee? His OPS is almost under .600.

Trevor Rodgers to BAL
The Sox picked up an average prospect who is out for the season. It's woefully short.

I think Leury left their minor league team, so a reunion seems to not be in the cards. Who knew at the time, Leury's HR in the playoff game was the peak of the White Sox "championship" window"?

The streak has reached 21. Raise a glass.
When someone tracked down KW and he refused to comment on the team out of respect for JR and only JR, I wonder who the animosity was aimed at? It's either Tony or Brooks or both.

Alexander Albertus Injured
He was a must get. What a clown show.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
Call it what it is, a salary dump.

Fire Chris Getz
It's just mindboggling to me a MLB team can go 27-82 and no one loses their job. Throw the fans a little bone. Tell them LaRussa has been banned from GRF..

Chrs Getz next good trade will be his first.

24 Summer Olympics Thread
The Maher woman on the Rugby team is unreal. Reminds me of Earl Campbell in his prime. Just knocks people over then runs away from them.
