GAME TIME!!!! LETS FUCKING GO SOX!!!! To quote Ozzie: WIN DIS DING!!!!

You’re preaching to the choir. I’ve been extremely disappointed they didn’t add a second starter at the deadline this entire time and have needed no prodding in that direction. But that ship has sailed.

Or perhaps your suggestions aligned with preexisting considerations and your inflated ego equates responsibility upon yourself errantly? I think we’ve had enough of WBWSF Talk and have a game that’s starting.

Really is a fantastic opening volley from Fegan in his new role. I don’t think any of us can really imagine what the future of this organization looks like if Banni is really able to actualize his ambition of making the Sox a top 5 MLB pitching development system again. Pair that with our young positional core and the top heaviness of our minor league ranks… and a new eventual owner with pocket books to rival Cohen… fucking look out baseball, here come the White Sox… TraaLaaLaaaa!

James Fegan: “This spring, the White Sox anticipated having what would amount to nearly a second major-league rotation at Triple-A Charlotte, with top prospects Noah Schultz, Hagen Smith, Tanner McDougal and David Sandlin all in tow and all expected to reach Chicago by midseason. Fast-forward to mid-August, and all four have debuted for a Sox team that’s surprising everyone — including their own front office — with how quickly they’ve gone from rebuilding to competing for a division title.” @WBWSF: “Nuuuuhhhhaaaa!”

It’s actually amazing when you think of the fact that we could have just of easily been on a 5 game winning streak and taken the first two games while our team was set up HORRIBLY going into this series. Wonder what would have happened if it was a true to the playoffs matchup and we had our ducks in a row. We may have to wait a few weeks to find out. Really hope we don’t get into the playoffs and get run like 2020.

They didn’t have to sit in the pocket of either extreme. Didn’t need to mortgage the farm and they didn’t need to ride the pine. There was a middle ground and all they needed was ONE more transaction to satisfy us all. Completely dumb. I am SURE that if Getz had a Mulligan and knew then that Martin would have been in the spot he is in and has been stuck in - the guy would absolutely have traded for another pitcher. IMO they should have just manned up and got Soriano. Would have been costly BUT they would have 4 of 5 rotation spots settled for now and for the relative future. Oh well - Drew Thorpe can still come be a savior for him. Davis Martin can dawn his Superman cape and come save the day. Urquidy could shock the world and be a serviceable number 5. Fedde could stretch back out over the next couple weeks and be a solid backed piece. They scuffled this one big time but hopefully we are in the middle of the biggest bump in the road that we will have to hold on for. Still a lot of regular season left. Go out there and get em.

Imagine if they had gotten PCA for him. We’d all love the guy and he might have told a Cubs fan to suck his dick. There’s another universe where this all happened… and it’s glorious.

For anyone already comparing Lackey to Roch, he isn’t lighting the world on fire and is likely gassed too. He’s hitting .205 in 44 at bats with a ~30% K clip, no homers, and is doing so in single A. Way too early for all of this horseshit. If Cholowsky is gassed, they’ll rest him - as they should. Calm the f*** down panicans.

I trust them to do right by the kid.

Detour over. GO SOX! GET ONE ON GETAWAY DAY!! LETS FUCKING GO!!!

No. You’re wrong. Jerry’s penpal and our next GM @WBWSF is right! End of story!!

I miss @ptatc but suspect that his knee isn’t the primary issue in his preformance.

You’re wrong. No rational or reason. Just… No, you’re wrong. So there!

Would be nice but it’s not really “must win” territory

I really think that this and other excuses is a load of phatuey - we could have gotten creative and beat someone’s package or manned up and got Soriano.

Lame

I’m aware. They’ll still be able to get some rest since they have minimal travel and some of their arms are being painfully held back from their ideal spots.

Thats what happens when you’re in the middle of August with 3 guys stretched out to start.

Newcomb and Urquidy I presume. ( SHOULD HAVE HIT BREGMAN IN THE FUCKING HEAD )

PS - Before Richards threw the first pitch in that at bat, I said aloud, “HIT FUCKING BREGMAN IN THE HEAD - DONT LET THIS FUCKER BEAT YOU.”

Went into this series expecting to get swept and not really giving much of a s%*#. Go get em tomorrow, get some rest, and get back on track at home. CUCK THE FUBS!

Why aren’t they just calling it and moving tomorrow up an hour or some s%*#? Not like either team has a tight get away day.

Sure would be nice to limp into tomorrow looking at a split and go back home to start fresh against Atlanta. We’re missing that off day big time right about now. f*** RAIN!
