Is Ozuna the Answer in right field?
I never liked Ozuna's multi-colored sleeves. Pass.

FS: White Sox interested in 16-year-old Cuban OF Luis Pino
Wow. Then, conversely, if any of those three Cuban prospects had played in the DR in 2019, they probably would have torn that league apart, or at least out performed Bailey? You broke my Ben Bailey bubble.

Are any of these young Cuban outfielders better prospects than our own Ben Bailey?

Offseason Targets
A long time ago I heard Joe Garagiola say that "If I don't pitch it, you can't hit it." That might apply here.

Here is where the Sox should spend
O'Dowd was not very good in his his stint as GM or Rockies.

Tony La Russa
Like most Americans, I believe in second chances, forgiving, etc. I bet there are a few of us here who have had second chances. But with Hinch, I think it's too soon. He needs to go at least one year past the mandatory time in the penalty box. That gives him time for a sincere Mea Culpa. Tony should just go away. Just my opinion.

Is Tony one of those guys who calls all the pitches from the dugout? Never liked it.

Mazara and Right Field Thread
It looked to me like Cease was afraid to put the ball over the plate.

Tony La Russa
I thought of this as soon as soon I heard TLR was being considered. When LaSorda was inducted they waived the five year rule, making him promise not to end retirement, or words to that effect. With Tony, he at least waited the customary five years before induction, but the rule is still there. That is, if you are inducted into the Hall, you stay retired, period, paragraph.

Tony La Russa
How did he do in that role in Arizona? Isn't he the one who traded Dansby Swanson for some pitcher who get couldn't get anyone out? His name will come to me. Shelby Miller

Mazara and Right Field Thread
Is there anyone in MLB who had as big a drop off as Mazara did from 2019 to 2020?

Tony La Russa named Manager
Sorry if this was already covered, but who really fired Tony back in the day? Was it Hawk's decision, or was he told to do it? Etc.

White Sox to participate in 2020 Arizona Instructional League
I never got why there could not be a AFL this year, if games are played in a bubble. Other than money, of course.

Why?

Tony La Russa named Manager
Yes, Kevin. Dave Cash was an infielder from many years ago. Thanks.

Tony La Russa named Manager
Tampa's Dave Cash is a hot item now, but when Tampa first hired him, he was not. He grew into the job.

Tony La Russa named Manager
Last time I saw him interviewed I came away with the impression that his cognitive abilities were diminishing.
