I rip Pedro all the time, but taking him out there was an excellent decision. No reason risking something with even the slightest fatigue at this point.

Hater’s gonna hate.

I’m hoping it’s just trying to keep him good at this point. Maybe there was one earlier, but it was Katz and not the trainer. That’s a good sign.

And if they ever built the whole plan, it would only get larger.

He's not bad, and he's in a really tough spot, a rookie at this, lacking some baseball knowledge and a team's performance that hasn't made it easy. He's a little too gung ho for me at present, but I can see why he would be.

John Schriffin would call him a hater.

Iowa won 10 games last year with an offense that no team in NCAA division 1 history, ever won more than 4 games in a season. Obviously a great defense, but a lot of it had to do with the punter.

Crochette as Ozzie calls him, is due for a good one.

I agree, and it is contrived. But , for some reason,I still like it.

I just think referring to a lot of the fan base who sat through years of losing for a failed rebuild and had to sit through 101 losses last year and a 3-22 start as “haters” when they reached 5-22 now 6-22 is a bit much. I hope it’s all peaches and cream from here on out, but we all know it won’t be.

Nice to win a few.

It amazes me a team wants to alienate their fans for being upset the t are 57 games under .500 the last season plus during their supposed championship window.

The hysterical thing with the Mayor is if they approved this Bears thing, there would be no bonding authority left for the White Sox. The Bears would build their new stadium, get all the revenue from any event held there, and the extra park space Brandon “negotiated”: that’s the 3rd and final phase of the project, one that the Bears would have zero responsibility for. It would be up to th states to create that parkland,, and pay for it. It’s not going to happen. See you in Arlington Heights.

If you're going to pinch run for him, why wouldn't you pinch hit for him.

Poor Schriffin couldn’t do a South Side, Stand Up last night with the game on Apple. Give him another chance tonight.

Crowd might be a little weak tonight. I just saw a broken down party bus on the Kennedy with about 25 people dressed in Sox swag standing outside of it.

If the board bothers you so much, why do you post?

3-22 teams operating like the White Sox currently are operating, are not living in reality. I'd much prefer watching Fletcher put up a .650 OPS than watch Otega put up a .680 OPS. Like you say,, it's probably really unlikely, but Fletcher has a better chance of being able to help the next average White Sox team than any of these dopes Getz is bringing in. This season is already toast. Don't get rid of mediocre young guys for mediocre old guys.

I hope these guys know how to play FAST.

This is so ridiculous, it's funny.

Ozzie calls him Crochette. This move will cost JR probably around the exact same amount it would cost him to launch Pedro and pay someone else. IMO, that would be a better way to spend his limited cash.

It’s standard.

This is exactly where I stand. They suck and will suck, but why let this guy do any more damage.

It isn't a huge amount in the grand scheme of things, but he did give Martin Maldonado $4 million for some reason.

Sox are now 4 games over .500 during JR's 44 + seasons of ownership.
