Got a week…
Candidates?
Additions to not be exposed to Rule 5?
40 man is at 35.
Any educated guesses would be appreciated.

I’d like to nominate Gavin Sheets for the broadcast booth. Kill a couple birds…

For those of you who think announcers aren't important, see, Caray, Harry.
Yes, and Hawk was important to the Sox brand for a long time until he lost his fastball.
I just never viewed Benetti (now 40) that way. Hopefully the next announcer is better for all and the fans upset today will just get used to it. We may not have a lifer announcer ever again. And that’s ok.

Bad take...
Actually, you can have any take you want. It’s a baseball announcer. It’s not that big of a deal either way. If you never liked the schtick, you’re happy with this. If you liked his announcing, fine…check out his other assignments when you can.

Love this unless it turns into a “careful what you wish for” situation.
Example: Connor McKnight- 1

Yes, Marcus Thames and Eric Thames are two different people. Not related. Don’t pronounce names the same. Marcus Thames is pronounced Timms.

…who dropped the fly ball in 2005…in….

They probably have to say things to cover themselves for future players in the same situation. I think they’re glad he’s gone, and he’s not coming back.

I think they bring him back on a lower deal.
Like Giolito, I guess anything is possible.
But I hope not on both.

Wonder if they would Friday night news dump the TA decision. One way or the other, some aren’t going to be happy.
The Hendriks news was pretty obvious.

Hope the Rangers win tomorrow. It would be pretty cool if they go 11-0 on the road.

10 days after the World Series might sooner than expected.

They’re just covering their butts in case the Sox pick up his option. If he’s back, then at least they can be around him and not be on record saying they wanted him gone.
My starting point of this offseason is that Moncada, Jimenez, and Anderson cannot be in spring training with the Sox.

MLBN must be getting ESPN disease and have wiped the White Sox existence out of their memory. I just heard Greg Amsinget say last night's walk off home run was the 1st World Series walk off home run since Kirk Gibson. Sorry Scotty Pods.
Probably just Game 1

Starts Friday night in Texas

The Rangers and Dbacks had a cumulative 102 wins in 2021, which is fewer than the Braves alone had this season.
112, but point taken. Things can turn around quick.

Damn. Hope it’s nothing.

I did not see both series going 2-2.
Hope they both go 7. Well really I hope the Rangers win in 7 and the Dbacks win in 6.

If Adolis didn’t act like a jackass on the homer, maybe it goes the Rangers way. Baseball gods, guys. They’re real.
Still don’t like the ejections, but actions have consequences.

Let’s go Rangers!
Who do you want or think will replace Benetti?

I had no problem with Monaco in the limited amount I heard him. Hope they match up on a deal.
When McKnight was on the Score, nothing made me turn off the radio faster than hearing his voice. For him to be the pbp announcer for the only team I care about, would be a gut punch.
