It will start this off season if none of the three AL Central teams advance out of the first round.

This article needs two separate sub articles on Sox PR/Broadcasting/Media Relations Boyer vs. Harrelson Benetti and then the current Stone Schiffren fiasco...and the focus on ticket sales and agents over analytics. (Will never get Len Kasper on record about his regrets...unfortunately.) Then another on international scouting going back to Kenny Williams/Dave Wilder/skimming/Club Burn through the Cuban Connection and the eventual firing of the intl scouting director who had won Scout of the Year just 2-3 seasons ago.

Surely will bring Pete Alonso on board...who will proceed to turn out like 2011 Adam Dunn or David Wright.

Greg Prince, who pens the popular blog “Faith and Fear in Flushing” and has written four books about the Mets, ultimately agrees with the majority. “I’ve been charmed by all that went into creating 40-120 my entire rooting life,” Prince wrote in an email. “The legend of the 1962 club will endure no matter who holds the record. All that being said, hell yes, let somebody else lose more than my team. Plus, you know, history. Somebody setting a mark like this while we’re here to witness it is worth a dozen Danny Jansens facing off against another dozen Danny Jansens.” https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5729682/2024/08/30/mets-white-sox-mlb-most-losses/ 9 living members still from that 1962 Mets' team...just thought it was ironic we hired someone to run intl scouting from the Mets who JR would undoubtedly rather associate with the 2024 Mets The nine living 1962 Mets are Jay Hook, Craig Anderson, Felix Mantilla, Cliff Cook, Galen Cisco, Rick Herrscher, Jim Marshall, John DeMerit, and Ed Kranepool.

Those '88 O's, who were already on their second manager before the streak was even half over, ended the streak with a 9-0 win against ... the White Sox. They then dropped to next two games in that series. From 0-21 they went on to go 54 - 86 (.388) to finish at 54 - 107 (.335) https://phpbb3.ultimatemets.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=33629 Mets' fan board following Sox as they close in on 1962 Mets

All the praise for the Bummer move like we ended up with some kind of bounty of impacful talent because they were Braves...that was just ATL taking out the garbage and saving themselves a bunch of money on Lopez and Soroka, who they were likely going to cut anyway. Shewmake? Would have been better much better off simply keeping Romy Gonzalez. Shuster has been okay as a poor man's Tanner Banks.

Did they ever figure out who was responsible for the Gonzalez graphic last year when his numbers were absolutely horrific? Baseball America? Someone was messing with the Sox about their #1 pick.

The Camden Riversharks were an American professional baseball team based in Camden, New Jersey, from 2001 to 2015. They were a member of the Liberty Division of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, which was not at that time affiliated with Major League Baseball.

At least Lee Sheets and Lopez talked to the media. Didn't like how confident Sheets seemed about being around yet another year.

Must want to help get himself and Crochet traded as a package.

Burger has settled in as something probably closing in on better than average value for his slot in the first round...although he did that almost in spite of the Sox and not because of them. If you look at one of those Vaughn/Madrigal drafts though...pretty sure Nick who was the selection right after, it's amazing how the Philly got the best out of Bohm when his career started out so slowly at the big league level. Or just how everyone fell asleep on a little Oregon State LF who has almost had the impact of Rutschman in two of the last three years from way back in the draft.

Baldwin is a perfect example this year of some rushed because the performance in the middle infield was so poor...especially after DeJong trade. Then he ends up getting hurt to top it all off.

Oh right, got the limo name wrong. Oh well.

They started 3-22. They have an 0-101 record when trailing after eight innings and haven’t won a game this season when trailing after six. Their .279 on-base percentage and .618 OPS easily are the worst in Major League Baseball. For starters, this has been a cohesive unit from Day 1 of Spring Training. It hasn’t changed during the litany of down times, and the work ethic hasn’t changed either. “This is a room full of great, hard-working, determined guys,” catcher Korey Lee said. “Every day you come in here, you see guys working out, you see guys going in the cage, you see guys talking. You see our pitching staff working hard. You see our entire background staff working hard. “A lot of people see what goes on under the lights, but not a lot see what’s going on here at noon, 1 or 2 o’clock, just hours before the game. Everyone is working. Everyone has a purpose. Everyone has a plan. That’s what is the beauty of this game, is coming in here and working every single day to get better.” The White Sox have a Major League-worst 35 blown saves, lost 55 games after leading and dropped 22 when leading after the sixth, where they have been outscored 354-197 from that frame to the close. “Just seeing losses every day, that affects you. If you are playing this game for the right reasons, it’s always going to affect you,” Lee said. “Play the game to win, don’t play to lose, and obviously that’s going to be on our record for years to come. But it’s just about how you react, how you carry yourself, how you go into the offseason, how you come into next season. “I have no doubt the people in this locker room are going to be affected by it. But I think it’s going to be affecting them in a good way. Give us determination this offseason to do what we need to do and come into spring and obviously figure everything out and do stuff for a reason.” Scott Merkin mlb.com https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/news/white-sox-tie-american-league-record-for-losses-in-a-single-season-with-119

“Obviously, it’s not a record you want to have, but at the end of the year, 120 or 123, it doesn’t make the season any better,” first baseman/designated hitter Gavin Sheets said. “It doesn’t mean all this was a success because we didn’t break the record. It was still a terrible season. At the end of the day, we need to get better going into next year. Hopefully, we grow from this season and we can take a big step forward.” “We can’t look at it,” veteran infielder Nicky Lopez said. “We’ve got to just keep plugging forward: If we lose today’s game, it’s how can we win tomorrow’s game. But as far as affecting me, it obviously sucks. I’m going to be, we are all going to be attached to it. But also, we are going to move on and whether I’m here next year or somewhere else, it quickly turns to that.” mlb.com

The White Sox (36-119) matched the AL mark set by the 2003 Detroit Tigers, who finished 43-119. One more defeat for Chicago over its final seven games would equal the post-1900 record of 120 losses by the 1962 expansion New York Mets, and two more would set a record. The 1899 Cleveland Spiders hold the overall major league record for losses at 20-134. Chris Flexen (2-15) remained winless in his past 23 starts for a White Sox club that lost its 20th straight road series. According to ESPN Research, Chicago, which is now 9-48 since the All-Star break, is on pace for 124 losses. "They've been playing some good baseball these last couple of days," Bogaerts said of Chicago. "Obviously, we want to win every game by a big margin, but these guys are putting up a fight. They're trying to be spoilers. Nothing's been given easy to us these last couple of days. It's been nice to be able to fight for it a little bit more than people would have expected." espn.com

Bertucci Brothers, yes. George from Midwest Limos/bright yellow M&M“s jacket guy. Alex and Ursula Snelius Nancy Faust Bob Rosenberg official scorer

Grievance filed already over roughly $30,000. Win or lose, Abrams will probably have to be traded now.

Would rather watch Moncada than Amaya.

Not sure about that nickname.

Perez 1.3 fWAR (w/ SD) 2.72 ERA Any team in baseball basically could have acquired him for almost nothing.

2/3 Reinsdorf...1/3 Getz decisions.

Orioles outchoke Tigers...all three Central teams within a game of each other.
