CLE KC and Twins all favored by FG to make the post season. Crazy after the lack of activity this off season from the first two teams. Trade DeJong to anyone who needs a SS. Well, that's so White Sox lol...out at home, running on contact and now Maldonado up.

Burger slowly climbing to 571 ops. Anderson days away from getting released.

Pham is just not a CFer.

First time ever in 3 hole at mlb level.

Are you not entertained? Maximus, Gladiator

That damned Ortiz..

Once upon a time, this was the 8th most valuable franchise in baseball...in that 2006-2008 time period. Reinsdorf is absolutely running this franchise into the ground in every possible way. It was never flat out embarrassing to be a White Sox fan in previous generations.

OU and Texas softball might be stronger...

Can understand why they would want to hide them. https://www.soxon35th.com/white-sox-see-largest-television-ratings-drop-in-mlb/ Usually Greenberg or Fegan would have something up by this point in the season...

Sosa will get 4-6 weeks at most if this losing continues and he's putting up sub 600 ops numbers again. He doesn't provide plus defense or speed either. Totally dependent on his hit tool...which is usually the kiss of death for Sox position prospects.

Now their trade position becomes a little more desperate...something they wouldn't countenance in ST.

Omar Narvaez dfa'ed...

Learning how not to panic when markets are down 20-40% is definitely an acquired skilled borne of experience. Not easy for young investors to do the opposite of everyone else...especially when paper losses from a psychological standpoint feel so much more demoralizing trying to get to your first $50k $100k $500k saved/invested.

Also signed Matsui out of JPN and were much happier with him and another guy they picked up on waivers from the Cubs...who has been quite effective recently.

Unless you have those individually devastating pitches like a Mariano Rivera or Trevor Hoffman, etc.

Not many mom and pop investors have the cojones to double down in situations like 1998-2002, 2007-2009 and then 2020-2021. The huge institutional investors and billionaires are the ones to clean up.

Every year...we seem to lose one Top 80-120 prospect. Last year, Colas. Hopefully, Ramos can rebound and get back from AA/AAA. Would have preferred a return to BIRM with how overwhelmed he has looked this time around. Seems like a pretty important thing for all of those players to develop good chemistry and learn how to win together as a unit.

With the hiring of TLR…compounded by two more critical mistakes.

The Lee late homer and calling them flat again would have put both Grifol and Lee into direct/open conflict. If he threw the players under the bus again…they might just totally give up until Robert comes back.

$20-25 million per year would easily pay for a very nice offensive anchor like a Marcell Ozuna to go along with Robert. Honestly, the future offensive core outside of Montgomery and maybe Gonzalez feels pretty much non-existent right now. Korey Lee if he isn't ruined by Grifol first...

“There’s no magic remedy here. The remedy here is you know what? Let’s get ready to work again in Milwaukee. That’s it,” White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said. “There’s no magic wand here to where it’s, ‘OK, now we are going to start to hit.’ “It’s about work. It’s about preparing, working. These guys are not afraid to sweat, not afraid to get after it. We have to continue to get after it. As far as the statistics and the history of this team and what we are doing, I’m not really focused on that. I’m focused on where we are at and where we gotta go.” https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/news/white-sox-assistant-gm-josh-barfield-on-team-s-struggles CHICAGO -- The 2023 Arizona Diamondbacks made a somewhat improbable run to the World Series before losing to the Rangers in five games. But just two years before that run of excellence, Arizona finished at a painful and forgettable 52-110. Josh Barfield was there for part of ‘23 as Arizona’s director of player development, before joining the White Sox as assistant general manager under new general manager Chris Getz. He was there for the D-backs’ entire rough journey in ‘21. So he can talk first-hand about a baseball team’s climb from oblivion to primetime in a relatively short period of time. “That was a horrible stretch,” Barfield told MLB.com prior to Chicago’s 3-1 loss to the Blue Jays on Wednesday at Guaranteed Rate Field. “I want to say we set the record for most road losses. We went a month, and we won like two or three games.”
