Gonzo & Eisert Traded to Pirates for Comp Pick and Jaden Woods
No one should be worried, he hasn’t proved he can hit for any power outside of Charlotte.

Gonzo & Eisert Traded to Pirates for Comp Pick and Jaden Woods
Either Getz continues to be terrible at making trades or Jacob Gonzalez was nowhere near as valuable as some people thought.

After the recent play, is the smart move to sell instead of buy?
I voted sell, mainly because I don't want to see them ship off prospect capital and because there was no option to do nothing. The team is developing nicely, let it continue to grow and build the pipeline to the majors. I don't want to see them send off a good prospect(s) for 15 starts of Sonny Gray.

In the AL, the only teams who you could probably say are out of it are KC and LAA. Everyone else is within the playoff picture be it division or wild card. It will be an interesting deadline for sure.

I meant obviously within reason, it would be ridiculous to trade Vargas or Taylor at this point. Like you said, if they did something crazy they have pieces but I don't expect that's an option.

This team really has nothing to sell, if they're going to add it needs to be dirt cheap otherwise they should do nothing and continue to let the team in place grow.

White Sox win draft lottery, will pick #1 in 2026
My preference is still Roch but ive warmed up to the idea of Emerson and would be fine if they went that route. Either way, they will be selecting a really nice prospect.

I couldn't picture a bigger blunder than the Sox sitting in the draft room and saying "We have Roch as our #1 player, but where would he play based on our roster today? Guess we better take someone we think is worse." I don't think that's going to happen.

Is soccer replacing all the US major sports (except NFL) in popularity?)
Im in Texas, so obviously football reigns supreme where I am.

The majority of the same kids are there every season, along with some new ones. Its little league so its boundary based and the growth of the league has more to do with who lives in the area more than anything.

Brock Lesnar might be one of the greatest athletes of all time. A national championship wrestler in college, a mega star in the WWE, almost walked onto the Vikings after not playing organized football since high school which was almost 10 years earlier. That doesn't work out, so he goes eh ill just go win the heavyweight championship in UFC.

I've been coaching my son in little league for a decade now and I think I can recall 2 kids who also played soccer out of all that time. I've never had anyone miss for soccer, but in the fall people would be out due to football and basketball. Like I said earlier, the only people I know personally that have kids who played soccer was when they were like 5-8 years old, and then they move on to other sports once they start getting skills.

Soccer is the worst. I have heard for years and years about soccer's popularity and yet nothing has changed at all in the US. Nobody I know has kids that play soccer outside of when they are 5 and cant really play anything else. They all move on to play the actual popular sports in this country when they are able to. Soccer will never reign supreme in the US because the best athletes in this country aren't playing soccer and they never will.

Thoughts on selling high on Meidroth?
Back in my day the Sox couldn't find a 2B to save their life, now we have way too many.

The Athletic player poll, best and worst teams.
I don't need to do much complaining about Jerry, there is an article posted in this thread with former players doing enough of it. You should check it out, maybe you'll realize that its not just posters on this site that think the organization has done/is doing a shitty job.

The Athletic player poll, best and worst teams.
This is Sox related news that was literally published today, this is a Sox related message board. Get a grip people. People act like he went and dug up some months old story just to stir the pot. This team is 4 games over .500 with a negative run differential and they play in the worst division in baseball, in a terrible AL so far this year. Stop acting like this is some magical season that is being s%*# on.

Kyle Teel returns, Edgar Quero optioned to Charlotte
I get sending Quero down, he's more important to the future of the organization so better to have him go down and get right with playing time instead of sitting on the bench at the MLB level. Better to let Romo hold that spot for now.

Sox @ Tigers 6/21 - 12:40PM
He hasn’t proven he can play at this level period. Can he one day? Maybe. He’s arguably the worst player on this roster, it’s laughable to see someone criticizing him get met with a snarky reply. Especially someone who was just bitching about the very thing they did a few posts earlier.

Weren’t you just complaining about people ignoring the stats that don’t fit their narrative? Or does Acunas 100 abs prior to June not count?

White Sox Collections
I have a signed baseball from Mike Sirotka. My wife worked with someone who knew him, and it was mentioned I was a Sox fan so he signed a ball and got it to me.
