Jerksticks

Have you forgotten this is the White Sox? In what universe are they going to make a risky forward-thinking move like trading Giolito? Only a few clubs like the Rays have the stones to do that. It’s a nice thought but no way that happens.

Lol. Did we suddenly become the Rays?

Do they really think we can just puke our way to the World Series?

The 87-90s are my favorite. That cursive C man

Outman is exactly the player you want IMO. My goal for the offseason has been to slide Eloy permanently to DH and turn the outfield into a super plus defensive unit. Outman, Robert & Colas would be incredible.

It helps clear out the value in the minors

It’s gonna be so bad. Brace for the cringe brother

It’s all velocity for him IMO. Was it the sticky stuff that allowed him to sit 95-96, touching 97? I have no clue. What I feel like I do know is he gets shelled 92-94.

This seems like such a terrible idea. He doesn’t provide difference-making offense. I’ve pretty much landed in the boat that spending big money on a catcher is one of the worst things a team can do with limited resources.

Cool he just said they are trading Vaughn and rolling with Colas. I like it.

I’d love 2-3 dominant innings every 3 games or something like that. Sounds cool in my head

We are playing for fun really hits home. One doesn’t get the impression we are trying to beat the living s%*# outa 29 other teams.

Thanks for doing this. It was really helpful for me to see. It makes me think buying out Pollock at 5M is a no-brainer. Save another 8?

Whoa whoa whoa. You can’t spin your way out of that post. That thing made no sense. You need to let each Soxtalk member take a few minutes with that thing and have at it however they feel like they need to. I can’t let you blame that thing on Hahn or Jerry. They don’t deserve that man

Meeeeeeennnnnnddddddooooooooozzzzzaaaaaa!!!

Well if it is Ozzie, maybe they want to give the impression that some semblance of due diligence was done this time?

Lol. So you can wait in line to get an autograph from somebody younger than yourself of course!

What in the piss

No it doesn’t. No sparks

I actually like both. Funny world

It’s sadly true. They had all the opportunity to be the forefront of bringing in a young generation, inclusive of everybody. “Change the game”. TA with his YouTube videos in ST was cutting edge fan engagement. Best thing I’ve ever seen. Could have signed Harper & Machado. Create this new exciting murderer’s row bad boys of baseball. Could have rebranded baseball and put the White Sox as the focus. The money would have been pouring in by the billions. Totally messed it all up. Did the same mid market s%*# as always.

It sucks though. This is no longer a super attractive job. It was perfect 2 years ago. Now, I dunno. I mean there’s only 30 of these positions so candidates can’t always be too picky, but a guy like Bochy probably can.

I really enjoy Gordon. He can take over for Stone any time.

Pretty sure this is exactly how I feel. Well said

I agree that Vaughn+ is traded either to fill LF or SP. In your example that gets us Burnes but leaves us with Pollack which I view as unacceptable. Would they have enough money to sign a really good LFer? I think I’d rather trade for the stud LFer and pay Rodon. I would think there would be way more of a prospect premium to trade for stud pitcher than the stud LFer
