  1. So Tony and this team offensively really did nothing to prepare to play the game.
  2. I don't that much about them greg. I think they were yougn and experienced to begin with and have heard they are getting better each week.
  3. How is KC overlooking him that big of an issue? They went with the experienced guys (Yost/Matheny), fired everyone now and the new people brought in their guy. I'm not sure he was even fired by KC now and may have retained his job. Davey Martinez was overlooked often and he ended up just fine. I liked Kevin Long but a month ago I had no clue who he was. I haven't seen anything poorly stated about this guy and he seems to have what is needed....a pulse. Hopefully he doesn't see any value in Shelley Duncan's analytical resume.
  4. Wonder if Kevin Long is irritated he was passed over in Philly and could leave.
  5. The cubs are having the same issue as the Blackhawks. Jack your prices up and then when the product is not championship caliber you lose people. The flip side of that is the Sox have low prices and when they then raise them all hell breaks loose. I have a 20 game plan in the upper deck and my plan decreased by 10%. The price is based on what is charged for premium games and the number of games you have.
  6. This is how it could play out with the clown car on 35th not looking inept Espada is in line to replace Baker and that was guaranteed to him and why he went from #1 to not in contention. Does Dusty step in and ask for another year or two and do the Astros pony up to keep Joe? Mendoza was on the radar but the Yankees asked for him to not be interviewed until after they are out of the playoffs. Guillen is interviewed because of his deep Venezuelan ties and there to gain his thoughts on Mendoza as a potential hire. Are Guillen's ties deep enough with him to be his bench coach? I believe Guillen resided in Venezuela in the winter well into his managing days and is very proud of what his homeland once was once. Or maybe Harold Baines will be named next week.
  7. Well they are certainly interviewing a good amount of candidates.
  8. I think Omar was a joke. He probably would have gotten the job based on his work before that all came out. The thing that would piss me off most about Ozzie was that was an easy move to make in June on an interim basis to see how it worked out....not now
  9. Her ex husband with whom she has kids makes much more sense than the two adult ex boyfriend/girlfriend going trick or treating.....
  10. No clue just know the records from social media
  11. Their frosh and soph teams went 16-2 this year This current varsity class is about what was expected. Not sure what to expect from Jacobs
  12. You are 50% right on the creepy autograph hounds but there are also cool things around it and it is in the the most miserable time of the year. I heard they are still planning some sort of event on a lesser scale and think the cost of the event is what drove to cancelling it. You can have an event without Hahn and KW. You get Guillen, some older guys, Getz, Thome, new manger, Katz, and go from there.
  13. Didn't they convince him to leave the field to be a manager? If so why not hire him than the charade that is going on now. Hahn's comments as to the hiring parameters of the new guy, similar to the the old guy needing dugout experience on a championship level team seems to be complete bullshit. Why would he even add that again that this go around. I am starting to believe they have no clue and while there are only 30 of these jobs the White Sox job is not looked at favorably for those candidate's that can wait. With 4 days off Kevin Long should be interviewed today or tomorrow.
  14. The PR spin should be, with the cost of hotel space we felt we could not in good faith run an event that fulfills the needs of of fans who would pay a very high cost,
  15. HE has only been there 3 years. Maybe he is tight with the GM and if the GM goes so may he,
  16. If a team is willing to change.....are the White Sox willing to make a change or just hope players turn things around? The Padres continued to add after last season as did the Mariners.
  17. Are the Yankees really that good? Their bullpen is a wreck and outside of Cole their starting pitching isn't that deep or experienced. Stanton and Judge showed up in game 5 but I am still not sold on the Indians and think the schedule next year hurts them.
  18. Per my Omelet who spoke to the pancakes, they both agreed that nothing will be official until after the world series so the buffet will keep discussing and infuriating everyone until all are kicked out of said buffet for being there for two hours.
  19. In hindsight Renteria should have never have been fired.
  20. What am I missing on this offseason; The bullpen is what it is Colas is the RF 2B will be filled internally Spend some money to replace Cueto Hire a manager As has been stated previously if there is no improvement with Anderson, Moncada, Vaughan, Grandal and Robert there is nothing that can be done fix the mistakes for those contracts.
  21. If it came off as I was critical of Fields that was not my point. Other than holding the ball to long I have no problem with him. He holds the ball to long because the receivers suck and are never open but he doesn't seem to go through the progression quick enough and hopefully that changes. .
  22. They showed a stat the holds the ball longer then anyone in the NFL. He runs on pass plays which skews the run/pass balance. His receivers are absolute trash. His line has some major holes in it. He can't go through his progressions quickly enough. He can be a fine QB with some work which is what this year is for. Sad he has no receiving talent around him. I think the OC is a bozo.
  23. After the last hiring NOTHING would surprise me with this hire. Nobody is off the table. Ventura was a terrible move and at the time Guillen was a head scratcher. History is not kind to Jerry Reinsdorf hirings especially in the last 15 years. I include the Bulls.
  24. My tickets in the upperdeck decreased by 21% I wasn't going to renew but I may now.
  25. Let Abreu walk, sign Nimmo, bring up Colas, plug in someone at 2B from the system. I don't know what the finances will look like but that is what I come up with. I love to sign Rodon as well but that isn't happening. In reality I think hey bring up Colas, resign Abreu and waste $7M on the 2023 version of Vince Velasquez.
