  1. See his last start against the Padres? I doubt he’d be made available and I doubt the Sox would do it but maybe having an old rotation mate and friend in Taylor would help Getz be motivated to make some magic happen. I believe in Skenes long term as a bonfied ace.
  2. I’m not worried about Mune at all. Here’s the full Getz quote when he brought up efforts to extend him recently:
  3. We haven’t seen the best of 2026 Chicago White Sox baseball yet.
  4. I’m eyeing 10 now!
  5. Give this man a trophy. Post of the day!
  6. Why? If you can cover ground in center, you can cover ground in left. If you have an arm and can cover that ground up the middle, you can also cover right. So if Bonemer shows he can man center, he’s actually showing ( since he has the arm ) that he can play any outfield position. They’re creating a multifaceted defensive player who can cover any spot in the outfield, either spot on the right side of the dirt, and can rotate as a DH if need be on rare occasion. Peters has been fantastic in center but he already gives way to a gold glover and moves to left. It wouldn’t be a bad thing in any way to have three guys on the team who could man center on any given day. You’d also have four guys who you could put in left. I’m really not seeing the problem here.
  7. SWEEP THE CENTRAL BABY!!!!!!!!! Off day today will do the team a world of good.
  8. This offseason is going to be interesting for sure with the uncertainty of how CBA talks shake out and the implications baked therein. Just as interesting will be potential conversations which open up with other organizations who match up well with us in trades and potential free agents. Like you said, we’re pretty damn well set on the positional side of the game and using that strength to try matching up with teams who are somewhat hopeless with an ace is what I’m dreaming on. Pittsburgh and Skenes is the pipe dream and Seattle’s stable of rotation arms is another team which will likely be a focus. How cool would it be for us to be able to bring Skenes in for a number of reasons, one of which being Grant Taylor’s history with him at LSU where they were 1 and 2 in that rotations. ( Taylor was their number 1. ) Skenes is a guy I’d be willing to stand with the Pirates and talk eye to eye on almost any player in or org. Colson, Bonemer, Chase, Psycho Sam, Schultz, Hagen, yada yada. * Note the use of the term “pipe dream”. In addition to those paths, we also have discussions that could be had regarding the future of the rotation with guys who are currently in our pen. Grant Taylor, Sean Newcomb, Hagen Smith, etc. The positional side of this team is diverse and is locked in with intentionally padded fluidity. The rotation will need to be solidified and there are multiple avenues of accomplishing that next goal. It’s likely we see additions and changes from each of the categories, with them bringing in arms via trade, free agency, and internal promotions from bullpen arms. We may have 6 months to talk it over to death… we may have 12 months or more even. I’d rather watch paint dry… so please CBA talks… go quickly. ( They won’t. ) 😆

    Read the words above the ugly pretty picture.
  10. What do wings have to do with it? There are retarded woke zombie morons and there are blind idiotic patriot scum. 😆
  11. My cell phone reception took a s%*# when the post game was almost wrapped up. What did Chuck and Ozzie have to say about Teel and Bonemer?

  13. The pitching has been gassed to the max and painful to endure as a fan… FOR SURE. Biggest question mark remaining for the brain trust to solve. Question is - can this question even be solved with the current self inflicted constraints?
  14. Yea, Im still pissed about him taking away from Benni. Was really a play that could have been a difference maker.
  15. Really think the central is a two team race. Ding ding ding. ARE YOU REEEEAAAADDDDY TO RUUUBBBLLLLEEEE!!?!?!???
  16. Chill out man. We’ve got a 6 run lead in the 8th. Perfect time for him to show what he does or doesn’t have. On another note, glad they shook up the lineup. Some similarities to what I had hoped to see yesterday: “The hi8is Lineup Shakeup from Hell CF - Peters 3B - Vargas DH - Grichuk 1B - Mune SS - Meidroth RF - Braden 2B - Sam C - Romo LF - Rikku”
  17. Antonacci will likely have not been thrown out. It isn’t the first time Doyle has been a tick late and has made an out trying to stretch one into a double. And that is just within limited action in only three weeks… coming from one of Doyle’s biggest believers. So… sorry… your comparison doesn’t hold water, again.
  18. 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
  19. Not ideal at all but the game is right in front of us. TAKE IT BOYS!!! PETAL TO THE FUCKING METAL!!!
  20. Was only able to start watching intently in our bottom of the second. Has Burke‘s control been way off or has been missing really close? Last fucking thing we’ve needed is him running up 70 fucking pitches through just 2 1/3.
  21. Gonna have to win this one ugly. Welcome to the dog days of August…
