It's called addiction. I can relate.

You think he wants to be traded??

The Pride of Naperville
This signing is a real head-scratcher.

3/1/24 Game Thread White Sox at Chicago N. L. 2:05PM CST; Radio: ESPN1000 & TV: (Cubs Only - Marquee),
I think VileHoopster is right on this one. War is a useless stat.

Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
I remember when traded Aparicio said something like It'll be another 40 years til they win again. He was about right.
-
Sox trade Matthew Thompson to Cubs for old friend Bailey Horn
I'm surprised Sox didn't throw in Dalquist.
-
Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
Of course, three of those guys were received in the Aparicio trade, which never made any sense whatsoever.

Sox claim OF Peyton Burdick from Baltimore
How is this guy possibly better than Colas?

Tim Anderson signs with MIA, 1Y/5M
Tim will have a better year that DeJong, in my opinion. I would have rather seen the Sox go with Sosa, Ramos, and Popeye instead of the guys we signed. Then, bring up Montgomery whenever. I could pull for those guys. Now, for the first time in my life, I am an indifferent White Sox fan. But I'll still watch.
- Spring Training beginning, meh

Liam Appreciation Thread
He made a lot of saves and was fun to watch and pull for. The one non-save I remember is the game when he had two outs with a man on with a one run lead. He got the hitter to hit a soft pop up in short left in foul territory, and Engel comes in to catch it, and he closed his eyes and his glove too soon. Next pitch was a home run.

Amed Rosario to Rays 1-year, $1.5 million
He'll prob play himself off the roster. Especially if Montgomery has a good start in Charlotte.

Burrowes is such a better SS prospect than Gonzalez. I just don't understand the draft pick.

Keith Law....doesn't hate us? Sox system ranked 10th overall
I liked Law when he was with ESPN. Very knowledgeable. I still remember his immediate reaction when the Sox traded Tatis in the bungled Shields trade. He was right on.

Base blocking rule clarified...
Base stealers should go in feet first, not head first. That would discourage blocking the base.

Please explain.

They should sell it to the US.

Who won the trades?
Someone who knows....who is better right now, Fletcher or Deloach?

How has Andrew Vaughn escaped trade speculation ?
You're coming down too harshly on Vaughn. How many times was he thrown out at second trying to stretch a single to a double? His hitting will improve this year. If guys get on base ahead of him, he could be an RBI machine. His biggest flaw is his tendency to swing at third strike sliders out of the zone. He knows it, and he will work on it.
-
Sox trade Cristian Mena to Arizona for OF Dominic Fletcher
As Alex Karras once said, He's small but he's slow.
-
Gregory Santos Traded to Mariners for P Prelander Berroa, OF Zach DeLoach and 69th pick
Had to laugh. Just 2 days ago I saw him on TV pitching something or other....

Fangraph's write up on WS system
You're calling it a bad pick but not a bust pick? What's the difference?

Cease To Padres per Passan
If Cease is with Sox throughout 2024, I doubt he gets 33 starts. Boros won't allow it.
-
Outside the Box: Trade Cease+ for Daulton Varsho+
There is always room for another catcher who can't hit .200.
