Every time someone says this, all I can think of is the fact that we need to step back and remember that Peter Angelos, Bob Nutting, Bruce Sherman, and John Fisher exist. Reinsdorf is definitely bottom tier though.

For me, it comes down to what Eloy can bring back on the trade market. Right now the options are: Eloy + Vaughn Eloy + Abreu + Vaughn traded (likely in a package deal) Abreu + Vaughn + Eloy traded (likely in a lateral trade or for multiple pieces) Keep all three and pray Eloy doesn't kill himself playing the field. The way I see it, option 3 has the best chance of bringing back a second baseman (Torres? Chisholm?) that can solve a big hole in the White Sox lineup. A new hitting coach can hopefully solve the power issue.

I'll just get this out of the way before anyone starts beating the same drum they did with Colas - The Show-Me State Shohei. James, is there any way for people to watch these games in person? My dad was bummed that arguably the most intriguing prospect sent to the AFL was Jirschele.

This would be the worst hire.

Pito leaving because of this disastrous season would make me very sad.

Tadahito Iguchi played with passion, so that covers the second part of your sentence.

Idk man, if a time traveling Oscar Colas from the future was our manager toting a 2050 World Series victory on his resume, I think we'd all be pretty stoked about that.

Wild suggestion that would piss off everyone but would be fascinating nonetheless: Mark Prior?

I kinda want to see it happen just because of that chaos it would bring.

I mean, Steve Stone also thought Tony was gonna make Hall of Fame moves.

Nuclear Gandhi strategy?

If we're doing White Sox retreads... Al Lopez.

Also, Drake LaRoche, leader of men.

I already suggested Kirk Hinrich, which somehow keeps it in the family.

Hell, you're giving such a wide span of time: Garland, Podsednik and Uribe are also in there off the top of my head.

Bro did you forget Eloy Jimenez and Dylan Cease exist? A Silver Slugger and a Cy Young candidate. Ans I know Gio had a bad 2022 but his 2020 and 2021 deserve mention, dear lord.

Are we talking about Omar Narvaez, who the White Sox got in the Rule 5 draft from the Rays and then developed for two years into an MLB hitter?

There is one clear hire. Kirk Hinrich.

Snell prefers the term slapdick*

@Eminor3rd what you got on Shim?

The winner of the Caulfield Cup gets to sign Daniel Tatis.

If Hahn remains and the Sox become a contender, Tony's plaque at the HoF becomes a target at the batting cages.

This is like being constipated and instead of taking ex-lax, you reach for cyanide.

Whatever idiot runs NBC Sports White Sox Twitter deserves this smoke.
