It would be #1 immediately.

Hope he gets to 10 bWAR over his Sox career at this point. What a miss. đ¤ˇ

Reading this makes me feel like if you could go back in time to 2017 and lay out all the ways this rebuild could go, this is the absolute nightmare path Iâd give almost no odds of happening.
-
I like this a lot thank you
-
Iâve never seen a 30 grade anything. Whatâs a good comp? Was Nick Madrigal 30 grade power? is Grandal a 30 grade runner?
-
Yea! Just googled that. How perfect
-
The TLR experience destroyed all the hope, love and interest I had in this baseball team since about 1997. im no longer a diehard. Rick Hahn being a terrible GM didnât do that.
-
Now that Iâve had time to reflect I definitely think Rick must have called out JR about handcuffing him with big FAs and then JR basically spanked him and told him, âGuess what, TLR is now your manager.â I donât know why but I really canât shake the feeling it was done as an insult to Rick. Why he didnât quit I canât figure.

Lol great thread. Thereâs no chance I watch any of this. I think the only reason I check the box everyday is to see if a burger played and ripped. LuBob or Eloy going off doesnât really excite me

Reminds me we need a âPicsâ section pinned at the top of Slam.

Sox @ Halos - 838PM (Giolito vs. Barria)
Jerksticks replied to ChiSox59's topic in 2023 Season in Review
The only explanation is the pitcher is tipping or flat out doesnât have it today. Letâs not pretend the guys suddenly have approaches up there. -
Fair. The only thing I think can work is they need to become the Rays in one major way: A guy gets to be 1.5-2 years from the end of his rookie deal, trade him no matter what. Always restocking. No extensions. Keep them hungry and then trade them. No exceptions. Then spend the 175M per year on major free agents. But they wonât do that. i still canât believe they canned Ricky and brought in TLR. Gnight dudes.
-
Crazy that we are a few months from the end of Giolitoâs rookie contract. Basically all the guys Hahn was praised for in those trades so long agoâŚitâs about to be 6 years, almost a billion dollars spentâŚand one first round exit. Things can change but thatâs what it looks like. Incredible whiff on the whole rebuild idea.
-
Our philosophy is to blame. The guys just arenât tough outs. Thatâs the whole problem They donât play THE GAME. Look for the pitch you want until you have 2 strikes. then shorten and foul off a bunch of pitches and put it in play. These clowns chase anything close strikes 1 and 2 and then swing just as hard strike 3. So dumb. Weâre all sport and no game.
-
The Rays are just incredible. I donât know how you can look at whatever the heck theyâre doing and think you shouldnât change your operation immediately. This could be a world class franchise. Best name and logo out there
-
I get less purist as I age. Seems backwards of typical old curmudgeonry. Give me more fans excited about playoffs. Give me a selection show where the top seeds pick their opponents with trash talking. Not opposed to steroids coming back either.
-
Yuck. He had a pretty okay April, really bad May. Hopefully he rips in June.

And That's a White Sox 3 Game Win Streak And Series Win !

âYou guys are bitchesâ needs to be the attitude against our division. It starts with Correa and the Twins. Weâre going to dominate you this year. I like this guy -
For real, right? Has there ever been a blaming coach? Like a guy who goes full priss and just tosses everybody under the bus lol. Nobody comes to mind at first thought
-
đ Kopech at 94-95 gives me the same concerns as Giolito at 92-93. Not sure if either of those can be more than average at best.
-
Double or nothing on 109 wins
-
You know if those guys are who we want them to be, thatâs a 108-110 win lineup easy

2/28 Sox vs DBacks, 2:10PM CT, no tv?
Jerksticks replied to Tnetennba's topic in 2023 Season in Review
Thatâs what Iâm wondering. Eloy playing more RF and Burger getting ABs every game. At what point does that become a sign they are really high on Burgerâs power/bat, so much so that Colas is pushed aside a bit? -

Dear Lord. Now that you mention it you almost have to wonder if theyâve given that thought -

So what wold be a sign the organization is pretty damn high on Burger? Even over Colas? maybe Eloy playing more RF than any of us wants
