2022 AL Central catch all thread
The Yankees did give up two runs that inning, so Cabrera wasn't too upset, said it raised his OBP, haha.

Cubs 2022 thread
Heyward's actually having a decent season so far. And Madrigal's not in the line-up today. Think he's just experimenting.

2022 MLB catch all thread
If they played the Royals it would have been three (more).

What if Zack Wheeler had accepted the Sox' offer?
Wheeler would be yet another question mark on the White Sox right now with lingering soreness during Spring Training...also, looking at his workload the last two years and his early 2022 results...that contract weighing if he doesn't right the ship, etc.

TLR 2022 Thread
You (JR, not the individual poster) suck more than Angel Hernandez sucks as an umpire.

At what point does Hahn "blow it up"?
Do we even know anything about Haber to say whether he's done a great job or a piss-poor one? Seriously, all of Hahn's early work (that went poorly) gets blamed on KW's influence, everything recently on TLR/JR, so what is he actually responsible for anymore? Just the Giolito and Anderson contract negotiations?

At what point does Hahn "blow it up"?
Sure, if everyone's healthy...IF IF IF and performing up to expectations. But think about your suggested trades. Anderson and Giolito would be the two most obvious, and get you outstanding returns (although not like Sale/Q/Eaton in all likelihood)...Kimbrel, Pollock, Abreu, Grandal, Moncada, Jimenez, Bummer would be in that next group to be dealt. Returns would vary...but Moncada's future contract would scare away some of the small and medium market teams. So then you're rebuilding/retooling around Robert, Cease, Kopech and Vaughn??? While that might be good enough to win the AL Central, you're going to push off having a championship-caliber team by at least 3-4 years when Sox fans have been patiently waiting a decade plus. It's pretty much the situation the Cubs are in now, with their remaining cornerstone guys being Contreras (catchers fade fast though), Hendricks and now Suzuki. But they're likely a .500ish ballclub even with the Pirates and Reds in the same division. So you get MORE MIRED IN MEDIOCRITY. AND NO WAY IN HELL HAHN GETS TO MAKE THOSE TRADES AFTER FAILING TWICE ALREADY.

Should have written redressing....but we are ALSO regressing, seemingly.
-
How Concerned Should We Be?
But but but not in first place alone until May 7th last year....
-
At what point does Hahn "blow it up"?
But we are regressing a wrong done to TLR from the mid 80s. (Good thing Harrelson isn't still broadcasting.)

How Concerned Should We Be?
The Indians/Twins/Tigers...pick two of three...will both go for 105+ wins?

Old Sock Drawer, ex Sox player discussion
Their odds of winning it all past October, 2023, are decreasing by the minute. TLR's presence alone is contributing to these falling odds.
-
How Concerned Should We Be?
Royals made their first error today...then it was later changed to a hit. Twins' announcers were poking fun how a ball that Benintendi clearly dropped in foul territory the day before was a non-error as well. Home score keepers.
-
How Concerned Should We Be?
18 games over .500 in mid August? The White Sox would be running away with the division. That was a total collapse. This is more of a malaise/apathy/hubris/self-induced one.

Luis Robert mild groin strain, status TBD
Just think, we had the best record in the ENTIRE AL a scant 36 hours ago.
-
Luis Robert mild groin strain, status TBD
Don't forget not trading for Escobar last year because they were supposedly worried about his quad. So we got Hernandez instead. After Nicky Two Strikes went down...

Is it Anderson or TLR going off the rails on a crazy train this series?

Anderson just not focused this series.

Late April/early May timetable. Had a feeling Haseley would be out matched.
