  1. I also need these guys to prove that they're better Eloy, Moncada, Robert, TA, Kopech, Gio and Rodon over an extended period of time. People couldn't wait to jettison those guys, but they all (except probably Kopech) had a minimum of one above average season. Colson is/was supposed to be the cornerstone of this rebuild and most are now crossing him off. Ramos looked like he'd be his running mate. I'd really like to see those two get back in the mix. They aren't good yet. They're showing a pulse. Victory laps are not in order.
  2. Everytime my battered and bruised White Sox fandom begins to heal - and I do watch games, much to my wife's confusion - someone like you comes along and ruins it by fluffing this org because they've taken the current title holder of Worst Team of All Time and are merely improving to Standard Horrible. It's like going from Jones Soda's Turkey & Gravy flavor to Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray. No one wins until we move on up to something consistently enjoyable. But let's assume we eventually reach like, Diet Pepsi status at minimum. Don't you think those soda cans - I know I'm beating this metaphor into the ground - deserve a new vending machine that accepts credit cards and phone payments instead of one that only accepts fresh-from-the-bank $1s. Why do you hate them so much?
  3. Live in Brooklyn, work in Manhattan, so different odds than Citi Field. It's just that rain forecasts have been frustrating as hell the past two springs/summers. Just loading up for days at a time. And always hitting on Saturday.
  4. So far I have not seen a drop, but it has been annoyingly cloudy all day. Wasn't humid this morning. Based on recent patterns, everyone will plan around it, it'll sprinkle once or twice, and it will dump absolute buckets on Saturday
  5. SSHM did while stat crunching where TA, Eloy, Yoan and Robert only played 16% of their possible games together. Played .600 during those games.
  6. Good: Traded the catcher it made sense to trade Meh: Return I'm not gonna be upset about this. More than I'd have expected for Thaiss in March.
  7. I'm not an MLB player. Jerry is crying tears of joy if he ever reads this thread. It's like arguing for a $5M payroll.
  8. He seemed happy with Jason — granted, that was pre-catastrophic collapse. Now I think he's just gassed.
  9. Yeah, I've been reading this coming from different athletes for a while. I think even college athletes. Like, f*** your stupid bet. You made it, own it.
  10. Man, Gavin Sheets would be a DFA candidate if he was here.
  11. Baseball players are supposed to be automatons!
  12. JR seems weirdly prideful of owning the Sox, despite bludgeoning the fanbase to death. I feel like he would very much like the Sox to be good, because he likes good baseball, but if they aren't built his way, so be it. We also know that the Ishbias are waiting in the wings. Nutting meanwhile profits off of the Pirates being bad. Instead of using the tools used to level the playing field for small market teams, he squeezes every last drop out of them. And barring being forced out by the league, he's gonna be making bank off of them for a while.
  13. We have the best player development.
  14. I thinks the Sox were actually close on Soto but then cheaped out over $100k
  15. 50 wins would be a noticeable improvement. Still dogshit though.
  16. Palacios works, unfortunately.
  17. Mat Latos on Fast Sox Start: “It has been fantastic. Everybody is loose. Everybody wants to win. Everybody is pulling for everybody and it doesn’t get any better right now.”
  18. I still vote that MLB gives teams that miss the playoffs a one-player steroid waiver.
