White Sox vs. Deerfield Pharmaceuticals - 5/13, 6:40 PM (PPD to DH 5/14 3:40 first pitch)
Who could have possibly predicted Maldonados poor performance?

He is afraid of calling out vets.

Just have to flush it.

For a team that should have a totally rested bullpen, the bullpen usage this first game has been weird. Maybe someone is hurt or sick, by why Anderson and why multiple innings for Brebbia?

Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
She isn't listed on the BoD because no one has been added to the White Sox BoD in over 40 years. Once someone dies, the Board shrinks. Whether she is a part owner of the White Sox, I agree, none of us really know.

Ramos getting called up
His whiff rate is a fraction of what it was in AA. Maybe he’s a freak and needed better competition, but I think eventually his lack of experience will be exposed and most will want him playing 3B in Charlotte. He has done a lot better up to this point, than I could have imagined.

White Sox Winner ! 4th straight !
It’s a lot more fun when they win. South Side Stand Up even made a comeback.

5-11 game 6:10 CDT start. Maldonado Line gets the start. Puke.
If Schriffen was hired by the Cubs, he would be the most annoying announcer of all time.

Sox unveil the new Maldonado line .100
Did anyone else think he even is starting to bum Schriffen out? He wasn't so enthused about Martin Maldonado last night?

Sox @ Rays 5-8, 5:50PM CDT
The other day he said a White Sox put a charge into one, it was a 260 ft. Pop up to left center.

White Sox “determined to be that group that turns it around”
I was once addicted to the Hokey Pokey. But I turned myself around.

Bummer to ATL
I just don't think Aaron Bummer and the almost $7 million he was owed was going to get you anything. And the Sox really had no reason to pay someone of his ilk $7 million because unless something crazy happened, they were going to buy him out. A recurring theme with all of Rick Hahn's extensions.

Robbie Grossman traded to TEX for RHP Anthony Hoopii-Tuionetoa
From what I read the Sox wound up paying Grossman about $80k more than they would have had to pay someone making minimum. I agree we probably will forget the guy even exists in a month, but 80k is worth a shot, especially since Grossman was just going to collect dust as the season rolled on anyway.

Fire Chris Getz
It's never pointless, but I do say anyone's total effectiveness would be severely diminished by JR's meddling.

Robbie Grossman traded to TEX for RHP Anthony Hoopii-Tuionetoa
This guy might not work out, but signing Grossman accomplished something.

Bummer to ATL
To me it was worth the gamble on Soroka snapping back to being pretty good. It's Aaron Bummer who is owed some decent money. It didn't work out, but it made some sense. I would rather have Shuster than Bummer on the 2024 and 2025 White Sox.

Sox @ Rays 5-7, 5:50PM CDT
I think Scotty Pods wears a rug.

5/6: Sox @ Rays 5:50 CDT: Clevinger day?
They are giving Lopez a hit if he bunts down the 3rd base line. It doesn't even have to be a good bunt, just on the ground and fair. He has no power. Why isn't he laying it down?

Jake Burger
The Sox haven't been very stellar at hitting with RISP.

5/5 1:15pm CDT Rubber game in STL, Ramos starts.
Nice game. Is South Side stand up a thing of the past?
-
Sox/Bulls/Hawks close on Stadium deal
JRs teams are so bad, he doesn’t even want them on his own network. The Sox have to hope Connor Bedard and whoever the Blackhawks get this year keeps them in most people’s homes next season. Why would a DirectTV pay for this crap? Hardly anyone watches.
-
AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX RAIN DELAYED WINNER!
No South Side stand up.
-
Ramos getting called up
This is shocking to me. I know Sosa was terrible, but what suggests Ramos, at this stage will be any better? I just read an article where scouts were saying the difference between MLB and AAA has never been bigger. This guy finally started getting it together in AA. If Sosa is that bad, DFA him, trade him for Cash Considerations or outright him, and put Remillard back on the 40. Why mess with Ramos. Let him progress.
-
Ramos getting called up
I don’t even think the White Sox would call him up. He either was pulled just to get a breather, or maybe he wasn’t feeling well, or he’s going to Charlotte. If they called someone up from there they would need another infielder.

Sox @ Cards 7:15 Central Brad Keller vs Sonny Gray
Because he's a hack.
