Jerksticks

This is one of your best and should be worked into the Soxtalk constitution somewhere

Ah good idea ?

Pedro Grifol clears that low bar! I know what you mean but this is the White Sox. They are likely going to make the least exciting hire you can possibly imagine. So far through 3 games at least Grady appears to be interesting. That’s huge! And cheap! And inexperienced enough to not pass instantly at the offer like a real manager probably would. Nice! Sadly it’s him or Jirschele

Totally fair. What are the chances we actually get a qualified expensive guy though?

Is there a path where Grady is considered for manager beyond this season? He’s in his 40s. Learned to play from the old guard but isn’t the old guard. If the players like him and play hard then all my boxes are checked. I’m interested in Sox baseball again, just a tiny bit, so maybe there’s something to this.

☝? sad and funny at the same time.

How are all the Grady’s Ladies doing these days?

Is it against the rules to have no manager?

Nishida is basically Madrigal but worse because you have to burn an outfield spot. I’m guessing he would consistently look like the worst player out there in MLB.

Checking in on the Flexual healing

Agree here. If you just assume everybody is a little different, then I wish it was just as simple as Garrett letting the team know if he’s feeling general fatigue. Keep going until he feels it. But that’s inexact as well because a player may be tempted to push themselves for personal goals and wealth.

I’m not sure being concerned about Thorpe’s fastball is an opinion. It’s his whole thing. He has a slower fastball- that’s his whole write up. I don’t know what I’m exactly trying to say here, but like, there isn’t a person on earth who doesn’t see the MPH of his fastball and note it. There isn’t a camp of people unconcerned about his slow fastball and then a camp of people who are concerned. Everyone knows about it.

So many adds on the site and you’re the last post, so for a second I actually thought wow an add for clown shoes seems so appropriate for this thread

Nice post

lol waves. Let me check with the boys in the development department. Got 4 more coaches working on it!

No. We need to multiply any time possible. We need to be the Rays. 2 years left? Traded

Maybe Getz just wants to look at some packages

Does he immediately fill our void at shitty no power lead off because 2005 happened spot?

I feel like we’ve probably been near the bottom of this category for a really long time. I can’t count the time Abreu’s dumbass couldn’t even tell he was being pitched around. Maybe every single time it was happening?

Man who knows. I wish it was as simple as waiting until Crochet says he’s feeling fatigue. Let the big dog eat til he’s full

It’s insane. I don’t know half these guys but the stat lines people are posting don’t lie

I suppose the Benintendi contract might outperform the whole ILoy experience. That’s bad

This might be one of my more optimist opinions of our farm in the last 20 years. Mostly before was completely irrational optimism, but this feels different. Getz might get the nickname Getzy Big Balls soon

Maybe we don’t have a large group of really good prospects not on any major lists. But maybe we do?

This is the signal 10D has worn out his welcome.
