2/25 Game Thread - Padres @ White Sox, 2:05 PM CT, NBC Chicago
Shades of Gordon Beckham... "Red Sox-Braves game ends after pitch clock violation called for final out. Saturday's Red Sox-Braves spring training game ended with an automatic third strike called on Atlanta batter Cal Conley for not getting set in the box before the pitch clock hit eight seconds." What's going to be the new terminology for this? Walk off doesn't quite work.

Well, just like Sox fans feel like umps are always out to get them, Hummel 85-90% is seemingly on the side of Iowa opponents. He's fine, but Bardo has always been much more complimentary. Also, pretty confident Jackson Merrill vs. Colson Montgomery as the next great SS in baseball will be a very legit discussion by July. And this one hurt...watching Jose Abreu in an Astros' jersey. Just wiped out 33% of Ron813's schtick. https://www.mlb.com/video/abreu-s-first-spring-training-ab?cp=MIXED&p=0&q=PlayerId %3D [547989] Order By Timestamp DESC

I now have my own third person verb, wow...that's almost as good as one of Benetti's delayed drum roll music and tv jokes from the 80s and 90s, with even late 70's disco thrown in to appease Stone Pony. Well, today it was Rage Against the Machine.

Trending! It's actually nice to hear Stone/Benetti/Our Chuck again and not Beckham. And, if Benetti was instead assigned to work on ESPN with Robbie Hummel in IC...no comeback.

He always made me think of Jeremy Reed for some reason due to the over hype and coming from a non-traditional baseball state. JR Birthday Party today...one year closer to the end of regime change.

Their cheerleaders are better. Search Rakuten Monkeys cheer team...would result in a 15% boost in Sox attendance but numerous annoyed wives and gf's lol. The answer today is the Iowa Hawkeyes, lol.

2023 Spring Training Thread
- The Sox Will Win the AL Central in 2023
Have to get off to a fast start to rebuild the fan interest. .500ish first couple of months and tepid attendance means the focus is on trading guys like Anderson, Giolito, Moncada, Grandal and Lynn. Still no idea what we're going to get out of Graveman and Lopez at the back end of the pen. Hoping for a hyper competitive 2008ish season minus the Quentin injury late.- Andrus to the Sox, expected to play 2B, 1 yr, $3 mil
For? You'd have to eat 70-75% of his contract.- 2023 Spring Training Thread
Or if Leury receives ANY playing time...- 2023 Spring Training Thread
Kelenic 0/2 with a k and 2 lob. Picking up right where he left off. Rangel Ravelo sighting.- Barstool Baseball Presents: A Conversation With Chicago White Sox Shortstop Tim Anderson.
It's funny that Jose Berrios and Gio have been lumped in together comparatively and statistically (at least standard numbers the past 2-3? seasons and similar team control, resulting in a trade with Buxton extended) and those numbers were among the worst in the AL for both. Except they're not going to get a $100 million, 7 year deal out of Anderson if he sees himself at $175-225 million range, sort of like a Trevor Story and not a Benintendi.- Sox Sign Bryan Shaw NRI
Whiskey A-Go-Go would be preferable.- Andrus to the Sox, expected to play 2B, 1 yr, $3 mil
Rodon and Cueto the last two years lol...pretty darned fortunate. Andrus as well.- Five best players on Team Japan

Antidisestablishmentarian to the end...loquacious, btw, that's not exactly the way that 30-35% of the posters are describing him, though.- Barstool Baseball Presents: A Conversation With Chicago White Sox Shortstop Tim Anderson.
He's much less "woke" than Balta...and he does tend to lean rightward on the majority of finacial issues, so it balances out more or less.- Barstool Baseball Presents: A Conversation With Chicago White Sox Shortstop Tim Anderson.

That's why I like AJ or DJ ten times more doing their own version of analysis. Even Black Jack McDowell. The only one who could possibly be worse than Beckham is Ventura, but I sincerely doubt even that. He's like a frat boy mixed withSan overall inflated belief in his own cultural footprint and beliefs being more important or valuable than anyone else's. - The Sox Will Win the AL Central in 2023
