Funny enough, their Pythagorean W/L of 91-71 could have had them MISSING the playoffs in 05 had they not been on the right side of luck that year. The 11-1 playoff run speaks for itself though, you don't luck into that against the best remaining teams in baseball.

Yeah its easy for ownership like Boston to say "Hey we got this reliever whose never been a starter before but looks like an ace, lets give him $170,000,000 and lock him up." while the White Sox ownership goes "Yeah players aren't worth that much, what if he sucks we'll have to fold the franchise, trade him."

Ill admit it, I thought Crochet was a fluke and expected him to disappoint after we traded him. At least our trade return has looked very promising overall.

Mike Vasil, I don't believe in that guy at all. 6.4 K/9 and a 4.65 FIP. We'll see how that ends up.

Then sign another one in the offseason, under no circumstance should you hold on to Mike Tauchman if you get a legit offer for him.

Yep, should be an exhibition of the best players in the game. I don't understand what good it does that the White Sox have an un-deserving representative that more than likely doesn't even get in the game.

You're right anyway you look at it. He had a nice start, but an ERA over 9 in his last 5 starts. He's not an all-star but someone from the White Sox has to go. I guess it should have been Houser and his 8 starts of playing out of his mind, but whatever, there's no one on this team that deserves to be an all-star.

It was bound to happen one way or the other. This team is going to be god awful once these young guys get shut down and any vets with a pulse get dealt.

Crazy, it’s like he’s a rule 5 pick or something

Bad team doing bad team things

I don’t disagree with you, but see above, doesn’t sound like he said anything remotely close to what you’re saying.

And that’s fine, but the point was there is literally no one saying Getz and JR get all blame and KW and Hahn get none.

Oh for sure, i just meant there was quite an outrage over this idiot when it’s starting to look more and more like it was completely overblown. You are right though, there would be no problems had you just kept your mouth shut.

See, now this I have seen and its because there are select people who try to say Getz actually was handed this mess when in reality he was part of the problem and should have been cast off with everyone else when the old regime got purged.

Its like if I am walking with a drink and another guy bumps into me and I spill all over myself and go "Hey dipshit, are you fucking blind?" and the guy goes "Yes, I am actually blind." Am I an asshole? Probably. Do I deserve to be crucified and have TikTok gathering to masses to ruin my life, probably not.

Player says homophobic slur to fan - 2 game suspension Fan makes pretty tame comment to player - Banned for life

While im sure this is never really news worthy and has happened, I can't recall ever seeing a story about a fan that got a lifetime ban being caught at a game again. Typically, the type of person that does something to get a lifetime ban isnt the type of person that says "Yep I messed up, ill just accept this punishment and never go again."

I mean, even a 60-102 season is still terrible. I agree though, Robert becoming worthless and all the pitching injuries really suck but at least there are some bright spots on this years team as opposed to last year when there was absolutely nothing. It will be interesting to see what they do, if anything, this offseason based on the potential loss of 2027.

Its been a terrible first half man, they are 26-55 and pacing out for 50 wins. That's terrible. You made good points about young bats forming and some pitching looking like long term keepers, I can't argue with that.

No idea, I bet they post his picture at every gate with a red circle and a line marked through it. That will probably work.

lol, nothing near as rage inducing as bad drivers apparently.

Yeah, my wife is big about flipping off someone who cuts her off or drives like a maniac. I remember one time she flipped this car off and then they rode on our ass for a few lights. Its like dude, don't do that s%*# when me and the kids are in the car.

No shot this 22 year old kid knew that his mom died in a car accident 8 years ago (when he would have been 14). Hell, I didn't even know that until this happened. The big thing here is to be careful about what you say to people, I know this resulted in him being thrown out and banned but man mouthing off to the wrong person about something you don't even know how impactful it is to them, recipe for disaster. I always get on my wife when she rages in the car at another driver on the road for doing something stupid, you never know who is going to lose it and have a gun or follow you somewhere.

Ok I figured it had to be more, quick AI search did not prove to be helpful

Is this right, Teel and Quero have only been in the lineup together 1 time since Teel came up?
