Gut punch of a loss. Sox have that trade marked these last three seasons. 2-9 vs. 3-22

Or the Royals should have invested money into, but it's all going to Perez Witt Lugo Wacha Estevez, etc.

And Torkelson, ofc, is becoming a legit threat in DET now...

Worry implies panic...it's why Buffett sold all his Apple stock last year and is now sitting on a massive pile of cash waiting to be reinvested for the highest rate of return. And it's not a game for at least 80% of Americans. We'll see what those bottom 80% are feeling after/if the budget blueprint passes with tax cuts for rich and corporations.

As soon as the Dow is back anywhere close to 45200 let me know... The odds of a world recession are 40-50% higher, not to mention we've angered many of our closest allies unnecessarily, when it so obviously should have been the western world/democracies all attempting to isolate China as a unified bloc in the first place...instead of one country and person going it alone.

It’s dangerous because we already had a top catching prospect…and we already know how catching beats up even the best hitters. Maybe one shifts to 1B/DH. But we desperately needed a true SS and CF and got neither. For now, Braden is playing CF, but nearly every scout around the game projects him as a RFer. Meidroth has become an early favorite with fans…but it’s hardly like he is a consensus Top 100 prospect, even. He is the next man up, the likeliest to be promoted at Charlotte, however. To me, Meidroth and Gonzalez feel almost more like Basabe/Victor Diaz in the Sale trade. Except Chase is sort of like a cult hero at this point. One thing he is not, is an everyday major league SS. Unfortunately, neither is Baldwin.

"“The Chicago one was intriguing when it opened up. Right? Because it is a team that has a lot of upside, a lot of Latino players, you know. We talked about it as a family.”“The White Sox, we love the city. We love, I mean that is a good baseball team. Then Tony happened and it was like woah. Okay. Here we go.”" Alex Cora discussing Sox managerial possibility before TLR got the job

30) Chicago White Sox Last week: 30 Five straight losses for the White Sox after a nice start to the season. They are who we thought they were. yahoo sports power rankings

He might be MORE afraid that if Colson Teel Quero Meidroth all struggle...they're going to be coming after him with pitchforks and torches. That will only leave the Big 3 to market and this summer's #10 draft pick...they probably want to hold Schultz/H.Smith/Taylor back until next year for off season marketing purposes.

Dylan Cease was spotted a 3 run lead and immediately surrendered 5 to the A's and it's still the bottom of the 1st. That Sacramento stadium is definitely going to provide huge offensive numbers as it heats up in the summer months. Make that 2 outs and 6 runs. ERA up to 7.94. Cease leaves with 3 IP, 9 earned runs, 8.56 ERA (about where Jon Adkins was when he was traded for Ray Durham, lol)

NY @ Detroit 14,156 Minnesota @ KC 13,008 CHW @ CLE 33,722 (obviously terrible weather conditions, but that's kind of a warning sign for the Guardians to be be closer to 30K than 38,000)

Even Martin Maldonado (clearly one of the worst players in baseball last year) has been relatively decent in SD...hitting over the Mendoza Line, at least.

Heck, we might need to go back to investing in Indian cricketers as a concept, lol.

Well, the next Camp Cora for Chicagoland youngsters has probably been cancelled, lol...

The weird part was SEEMINGLY more blamed KW than Hahn around SoxTalk, relatively...but KW actually had a great, almost amazing historical Sox track record (overall) compared to Hahn in terms of actual winning and losing, working within the imposed constraints of the JR's budgets especially. The farm system was not invested into heavily...it was simply for acquiring more proven vets the majority of the time, same with Latin America (other than the developing Cuban Connection). And Williams really KNEW talent and how to identify it. Whether he could afford it or not was always the question. Rick Hahn had ZERO ability to assess talent on a personal basis. Free agent signings were almost always bad...and zero ability to assess character with Grandal, Lynn, Graveman, Moncada, Robert and Eloy (only Hendriks was truly a "winning" ballplayer). I'm actually not so sure that Chris Getz is any better, which is hard to believe based upon his professional baseball career and being around the success of the Royals from 2013-2017. Also having a hard time seeing Chris Getz winning AL Executive of the Year anytime in the near future, as Hahn did in 2019. Heck, even Paddy won Scout of the Year not too long ago, more a lifetime achievement type of award.

Not SHEIN?

The singer is related to former Royals/Rockies SS Neifi Perez.

And we get back Balta and SSHM to boot.

Dylan Cease might be the best hitter on this team...

That's not going to pass Congress at this rate...

Get out the pitchforks and brooms. 3-22 here they come again.

He partied with Sox minority owner's kid during Covid...when playing for Indians/opposing team. Z.Plesac as well. JR wanted to avoid tampering charges for one thing.

And/or stop fighting with their brother over their father's (treasured) autographed baseball collection. That fits the White Sox image a lot better...Pogofsky kids who were born with silver spoons/Sox minority shares dancing in their heads.

We had a chance to win?
