Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened
Angels: SS Arjun Nimmala (top prospect) OF Eddie Micheletti Jr. RHP Angel Rivero Why were the ONLY choices Detmer and Holmes? For example, would this above-highlighted return have killed the farm system for Jose Soriano, much younger, with an explosive FB and under contract TWO more years? Mahle went to the Braves for very little...there's yet another choice. Robbie Ray didn't cost a king's ransom, for example. They had the 30th ranked system, the Sox around 15th. SD still managed to keep Ethan Salas, their top prospect, who is only 0/14 but a superlative defender at least. (They're also getting away with Dustin Harris and Austin Hays in the OF to the tune of 11 games over .500 now.) Caleb Bonemer was the only Sox prospect teams were interested in...really? Him or nothing? Well we know that's not true because of Boston Smith and Mason Adams,not to mention SS Vielma.

Mike Shirley resigns
If it’s Sox staff members/interns being commented on…versus the typical banter of minor leaguers at a local Hooters after a game, two very different scenarios, like football players swooning over cheerleaders or Wonyoung from IVE (Kpop) throwing out the first pitch at Citifield in a barely there outfit and hearing catcalls from the dugout. Thirty years ago, you couldn’t spend ten minutes around the minor league players without hearing maricon this or puta that or suck my dick f—-t…or players constantly hitting on on our “models” manning the souvenir scorecard booth. Then there all the groupies invited with free passes to sit behind the plate with the scouts/radar guns and upcoming pitchers charting…everyone waiting to go out after the game together. Married players were a rare commodity…só it was definitely a machismo environment. Mix in lots of alcohol as well. Executives in the front office need to be held to a much higher standard in terms of behavioral expectations.

Let’s not forget the Mike Clevinger and Zach Plesac partying during COVID with minority shareholder’s kids … the getting re-signed three times by the Sox and all that came along with Clevinger, not to mention Pham again

Very small crowds for September night games in football territory Plus White Sox tickets weren’t exactly a hot commodity at the beginning of the season for pre sales

Sandlin has a flat fastball and Thorpe no fastball. But that stuff argument hasn't stopped Mason Adams his first four Rockies starts from being more than serviceable.

Definitely not the Takatsu/Hermanson/Jenks run in the pen or Pods/Iguchi manufacturing early game leads.

Mike Shirley resigns
Or the opposite, since he openly ran a gay bar/Club Burn in Phoenix that was tolerated by KW...and then there was the trainer who claimed he was fired by Hahn due to sexual orientation, but pretty sure he lost that suit. We checked off racist/sexist against women already with Shirley...not sure about the trinity of sexual preference/s, but generally goes along with the other two. (Omar Vizquel was the most recent egregious example of sexual discrimination/bullying behavior...) Also makes you wonder if GEtz Thome Hostetler Barfield Watson Jin Wong did anything to stop it...or, heck, Hahn/KW too.

Surely will be a legal battle. The previous awareness of issues is obviously relevant ... we don't know if his contract was amended to reflect that.
