Robin Ventura May manage again next season
It seemed like he had a hard time handling the clubhouse. You had a spoiled petulant ace throwing temper tantrums, cussing out front office personnel and cutting uniforms, you had a struggling DH's kid being treated like he was actually on the team, and you had a right fielder creating cliques in the clubhouse. That seems like a clubhouse out of control. The good thing is I don't see that happening in Rick Renteria's clubhouse. He doesn't seem like the type to take that kind of s***.

Wall Street Journal story on Sox rebuild...
QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jul 26, 2017 -> 02:55 PM) https://www.wsj.com/articles/for-the-white-...069920?mod=e2fb The biggest thing that caught my eye was this paragraph: "In Hahn’s ideal world, the White Sox might have gotten here sooner. He acknowledged that there have been other moments where he and Williams proposed a total rebuild, as the team heads toward its fifth straight losing season. I've always said that Kenny Williams was unfairly blamed for the team constantly being in "win now" mode. I think KW took the blame, but it was Reinsdorf who didn't want to tear it down because JR was afraid of lost revenue from low ticket sales. If KW and RH are given orders to put a winner on the team and told not to trade veterans, what could they do? Reinsdorf is the owner. I bet Robin Ventura was a JR hire too.

Anthony Swarzak to Brewers; Sox receive Ryan Cordell
QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 25, 2017 -> 06:48 PM) I circled 8 names on the roster at the break. 5 are gone. Melky, Gonzalez, and Holland are left. Holland might be wishful thinking. Meh... we have to have someone eat up innings. Don't wanna bring the kids up and burn them out. Keep Holland and Shields.

Anthony Swarzak to Brewers; Sox receive Ryan Cordell
QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 25, 2017 -> 06:30 PM) This dude has a much better chance of actually making a roster. He may come up when Melky goes. This is exactly what I was thinking. Melky might not be here very long.

Do you guys want Shields to be traded? They won't get anything for him other than some salary relief. At this point they might as well keep him.

Burdi to have Tommy John
I'm just worried that he won't be the same after the surgery. Isn't that always a risk? Serious question... did Stephen Strasburg ever return to phenom status after his TJS?

The Farewell Jose Quintana thread
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 01:21 PM) Quintana was the perfect replacement for Mark Buehrle. Now we need another "soft" tossing lefty to rise from the ashes and make us forget about Q. Best wishes buddy, go win a World Series. Yeahhhh Kopech is going to come up fireballing and blowing people away. I think we'll be fine with that.

Keith Law Top 100
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 10:28 AM) The dude is so green, and has just blasted through the minors. It is hard to tell what he will be able to do with the arc he is on, until it actually happens. EDIT. He has played 193 games total in the minors. I just don't want them to rush him. Please don't rush him. Let him get the proper seasoning in the minors. I'd hate for him to become another Gordon Beckham.

Sox sign Ryan Rayburn
Can he still play? Could he ever play when he wasn't playing the White Sox?
