Is “The 78” Dead? Or even more alive? Fire announce plans for SSS
Rocky replied to soxfan18's topic in Pale Hose Talk
SoFi, Mercedes-Benz, ATT&T, US Bank, Allegiant all have plenty of personality/character and far from being sterile. -
You literally gave Getz a B grade because at least they didnt set the loss record again. Did they make progress? Technically, yes. I am excited about some of the young guys on the team but still upset about the overall lack of results and accountability in the entire organization. We deserve and should demand better!

A record that had stood since the 1960s was finally broken last season — that alone shows how unlikely it was to happen in back-to-back years. The fact that the bar has now been set at simply not breaking an all-time loss record is unacceptable for a franchise in the third-largest market. This isn’t about “progress” or “holding steady.” When an organization performs so poorly that it posts the second-worst record in all of baseball, that’s not a sign of competence. It’s failure. To suggest otherwise only lowers expectations to an embarrassingly low level. The reality is this: an F is the only grade that fits. The standard for a team like the White Sox should never be “don’t embarrass yourselves again.” It should be competing respectably. Until the front office demands more, the results on the field won’t change.

The postseason is beginning, and the White Sox are not in it. F.

Sox, Cubs, Brewers, Twins paired together in future?

No division champion, no league champion? No thanks. -
Clint Frazier on the 2023 White Sox being his most favorite team
Rocky replied to Kyyle23's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The picture hasn't changed because they keep promoting from within the same disfuctioning organization. Getz was a part of culture, scouting, player development issues yet he was promoted. -
There are indoor options that are virtually plug and play. But still not an ideal solution. The Sox aren't worth the effort.
-
Sure, it may be a problem for some. But far from being near the top of problems. The viewership for the Sox ranked towards the bottom even before the move to CHSN.

For the Gary Railcats.

The regime hasn't changed. You can't expect a different circus when the clowns are the same.

Was that ever confirmed?

I am an IPA fan as well. I will have to check those out.

Why wait? I already dislike him.

Ohtan's $2 million salary generated up to $100 million in revenues
Rocky replied to caulfield12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
He never understood it. He didn't want to pay MJ and famously said he would probably regret those deals. JR is all about maximizing his and investors pockets. Stupidly not realizing that if you spend money, you can truly make a ton more. -
Potential Crochet Trade discussion Thread
Rocky replied to Chicago White Sox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
A Boston Fan Page Twitter account is hardly a source we should be paying attention to. -
There are 28 baseball franchises who would trade spots with the Yankees. I wish that were the Sox, even if we got swept by the Dodgers.
-
The fact that JR is finding out that Chicago is not going to bend over backwards on the new stadium is why I believe JR will sell the team. He is going to let the new owner fight the battle.

Vaughn sucks. Time to move on.

Levine: Possible frontrunner for manager - LAD 1B Coach Clayton McCullough
Rocky replied to Heads22's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I am resigned to the fact that we are stuck with Sizemore. McCullough would make too much sense, so we can forget about it. -
The problem does start at the top. JR is the biggest issue in the organization. If he truly wanted to win, he would fire Getz this off-season. Getz hired Grifol. This was his guy. Hold him accountable for the hire and for his horrible off-season and trade deadline moves. But we know it's not going to happen.
