The ballpark looks unusually empty tonight - even more so than normal.

Is it wrong to want the Sox to embarrass themselves?
chetkincaid replied to reiks12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If a team is going to be bad, then be good at being bad. I don’t want a middle of the road team like the Bulls because that still gives people hope. “All we need is a left handed slugger named Adam and we are golden!”. Nah I want them to be historically bad and lose 120+ games. That way everyone knows that it will take a complete tear down and rebuild to win again. -

I said before that the only free agents who will sign with the White Sox are players like Tommy Pham who have nowhere else to go. I’m sure players talk about this organization and this owner. How can they have any confidence that the owner is willing to do the things it takes to win? -
Sox looking at building in South Loop

Not to mention hiring a GM from within instead of hiring someone from the outside that a new owner will probably jettison whenever they took ownership. -
Sox now 1-7, on pace for 20-142 record

Sox fans should stop giving money to an owner who cares more about his bottom line than he does about winning. The White Sox are as bad as the Oakland A’s. -
4/5: Chicago Royals @ KC Royals @640 CT - Fedde vs. Singer

Liam signed to a young team that was on the come up. That is not this team.
-
The only free agents who would sign here are the players on the tail end of their career and have no other place to go. This is a team full of nomads just glad to have a job because no one else would sign them. This team, this organization is garbage and no one wants to come here. Why would a highly sought after free agent want to commit to a team with an owner who’s never signed a contract over $100 million? Even if he signed one, would he sign another if that is what is needed to win?

Paying your hard earned money to go see this team is only making it worse. There should be no real White Sox fans in the stadium because it only prolongs the ineptitude of this organization. Maybe the old guy will sell if no one shows up.

Getz will listen to JR and TLR and that is what makes JR comfortable.

I don’t want to beat a dead horse, but I believe those players started declining when the White Sox got rid of Rick Renteria and replaced him with Tony La Russa.

Sox trade Cristian Mena to Arizona for OF Dominic Fletcher
chetkincaid replied to Heads22's topic in Pale Hose Talk
He’s 5’6” with average speed. That doesn’t sound like a good combination for an outfielder. -

I’ll believe this when I see it. The city of Chicago shouldn’t give Jerry Reinsdorf another dime. Taxpayers shouldn’t have to fund stadiums for billionaire owners. -
I’m still waiting on the Angels to sign Tim Anderson. I think Ron Washington would be a big help getting him back on track.

Sox sign P Chris Flexen, DFA Carlos Perez

Sox sign P Chris Flexen, DFA Carlos Perez
chetkincaid replied to baseball_gal_aly's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Months ago I said that the White Sox won’t be able to attract any viable free agents and the only player they’ll be able to sign are those who are near or at the end of their careers and can’t get a job anywhere else. This is really embarrassing. -

Because it’s not the GM, it’s the owner. -
Best of 7 series should only be for league championships and World Series. I’m fine with best of 3 in the opening round. That’s what’s wrong with the NBA… too many damn teams and too many damn playoff games. It makes the regular season worthless.
-
You know, I would agree with this line of thinking if Reinsdorf and the rest of the owners sold tickets for $5, or if they didn't black out every radio telecast out of market. Owners are greedy and they charges us premium prices to consume their product, so I feel like they are obligated to spend on premium talent.

Call me a Fairweather fan but this is exactly where I am. I refuse to spend another minute of my life being angry about a professional sports team with a billionaire owner who doesn't give a s%*#. It must be really nice to be a fan of a team with an owner that actually tries to win. I'll be a fan again once JR is gone.

Lmaooooooooooo

This right here x100. Firing Renteria and bringing in a corpse who lives by baseball’s silly “unwritten rules” broke the spirit of this team. It was an energetic, fun, “change the game” kind of a team under Renteria and I truly believe they would have been much better off leaving him alone and bringing in some pitching reinforcements. It wasn’t Renteria’s fault that the major free agent signing at the time, Mr “Winning Culture” Dallas Keuchel s%*# the bed in the playoffs against Oakland.

Wow the national news is all over this. The White Sox are getting absolutely roasted on twitter.

Outbid by the small market Detroit Tigers. What’s next? They pay Connor McDoink $50k a year to be the tv announcer? I’m so sick of this owner.
