Its bad, really bad. If they trade Crochet, Robert, Fedde, Kopech, Wilson Decline options on Maldonado, Stassi, Moncada, Jimenez Non tender Vaughn and Lopez Where is a competent MLB roster going to come from next season?

Helps when you have a top 10 pitching staff.

I was talking about next season, that wasn't 3-4 years down the line. It was just to show the massive amount of holes that need to be filled on this roster. And that was without trading those guys. Once they do get traded, its even more holes to be filled.

The Sox starting tearing it down after 2016. They stunk in 2017, 2018, and 2019 finally getting back to .500 in 2020 but we dont even know how that full season would have ended anyways. You're looking at 2024, 2025, and 2026 as loser seasons pretty much guaranteed. I would be putting my money on 5 years if I was a betting man. Things could certainly change if they can get a haul for Crochet, Robert, and Fedde.

Just assume they make no trades and decline options on the obvious. If you think were magically going to add 15 players to this roster that make significant steps forward between prospects hitting and free agency you're crazy. And this is with no trades assumed and Vaughn not getting non tendered. C - Korey Lee 1B - Andrew Vaughn 2B - NO ONE 3B - NO ONE SS - NO ONE LF - Andrew Benintendi CF - Luis Robert RF - Corey Julks DH - Gavin Sheets SP - Garrett Crochet SP - Erick Fedde SP - NO ONE SP - NO ONE SP - NO ONE BULLPEN - Kopech, Wilson, Leasure, and then a bunch of NO ONE

It would take unprecedented prospect hit rates to achieve this. Its not going to happen. Unless we can get Sale/Quintana like returns for Crochet and Robert this is going to take a long time to build back to just .500

I meant to come back to this sooner, but this is quite possibly the funniest post I have ever seen on this site. Bravo man, I legit laughed out loud and still laugh reading it again.

Man these guys are 1-16 in the last 17 games. How does that even happen in professional baseball.

2027 seems like the best case scenario to me, and I think that kind of requires us to trade Crochet and Robert this season. I have no confidence that the money will be spent wisely this off season and even when Pedro gets fired, I again don't have any confidence in this organization hiring the right guy. We have a GM who so far has shown he is in way over his head and I have really disliked 90% of the moves he has made. We really need to cash in on Robert and Crochet, that will go a long way in expediting this rebuild. I think if you can trade Crochet, Robert, & Fedde for 7-8 prospects with 3-4 of those being real blue chips we would be in business. Add in the high pick this year and smaller trades of guys like Kopech and Wilson, the farm should be incredibly deep with real talent. That seems like the only realistic path this team has to being competitive anytime soon.

That’s exactly right. It’s why I don’t really care how bad they are, I’ll forget about this if they can build sustained success.

Dude I live in Houston and am surrounded by their annoying fans, they never talk about anything other than how great they are and how they go to the ALCS every year. No one ever talks about those bad years.

Oh man I hope so, they deserve it

Yeah I’m enjoying how comically bad they are.

Bummer, looks like the streak is going to end.

That tough guy shadow boxing was so cringe.

Colas got his one game in, time to send him back.

The theme of the 2024 White Sox

When I was young it was cool to hate the Cubs. Now, I couldn’t care less.

Really starting to feel like this guy isn't getting fired in season and hes just doing what Getz is instructing. There's just no scenario where a professional sports team looks at this disaster and doesn't make a change in leadership.

It’s ok they have only been shut out once in the last 28 games

30 games under, on June 2nd. lol.

Oh brother, these guys stink

They definitely thought that. This team has a chance to be 30 games under .500 on June 2nd, you have to make a change in leadership at this point. If not, then I seriously question if they care about it.

Nah, not even close really.
