Andrew Vaughn and Eloy: what's the plan here?
Yes, and Sox will no doubt get some offers for Vaughn. He actually hits the ball hard on occasion. Plus, he actually hustles. Those two attributes cover a multitude of sins.

Andrew Vaughn and Eloy: what's the plan here?
Continuing.... Part of Vaughn's problem is that he was drafted so high. If Sox would have taken him in Round 2, he wouldn't get nearly this much criticism.

Andrew Vaughn and Eloy: what's the plan here?
Now you're exaggerating. I watched a lot of White Sox baseball the last two seasons, and I saw Vaughn dig a lot of throws out of the dirt. He has reasonable range and his arm to second base is fine. Sure, he messed up a few balls. Those are called errors. Everyone has a few. Yes, I remember two foul balls that got the best of him. Big deal. If you want to talk about his outfield play, I'll agree with you, but not his first base play.

They Gone - lots of coaching changes
Does anyone here know what the all-time service record is for a Coach on one team? Dave Nelson of Cleveland comes to mind, as well as Tony Lazzeri with the Yankees. Boston has to be in the Top Ten.

Trevor Bauer
At least Bauer has the balls to open up in front of the camera. He didn't look dishonest to me. I doubt if the chick will do the same.

Burger To Marlins
And, they got nothing for Burger. Just an old pitcher who couldn't pitch in AA who now is going to the Arizona Fall League as a 25 year old. The trade is so stupid. I'm still shaking my head in confusion and disgust.

9/30- Sox vs Padres, 100 Losses!
Yes. Included in the haul for Clevinger was slugger Josh Naylor.

9/29- Sox vs Padres, loss 99
That's over a Billion. I bet the owner approved them all. And, Preller signed Shields before Sox bailed him out. Stay away from Preller.

ESPN ranked White Sox season #30 last in MLB with an F ranking.
I would have ranked them #31.

9/26-28, Sox vs Diamondbacks series
Yes. He hustles, has 21 homers, 80 ribbies. If he could just learn to lay off sliders way out of the hitting zone, his numbers would go way up.

9/26-28, Sox vs Diamondbacks series
One thing I've noticed about the White Sox. When Kory Lee goes 0 for 4, his batting average does not go down much, I hope he figures it out this off season.

SSHM, how do you find time for your music? I once thought I was pretty advanced, but you and Wegner are miles ahead of me. Miles.

Sorry about your bro. If given the chance, I will recommend to my great grandkids not to play football.

Colson is just an alien
Quitting football after soph season is pretty early if you are really good.

This Day In Sox History...September 22
That win against Cleveland is firmly etched in my memory bank. Early Wynn started, Bob Shaw relieved, Jerry Staley closed.

Arizona Fall League Roster Announced
I bet Iggy Suarez is already trying to figure out how to keep White Sox pitchers, especially the guy we got for Burger, from blowing leads.

Colson is just an alien
I could not agree with you more. I could never understand it. Does he think he looks cute up there with his left toe at some obscene angle? Cheez, sometimes his left leg is actually quivering as he waits for the pitch. I can't imagine any other team letting him stand that way.
