Buehrle Bobbleheads for Sox Charities
Already have mine ordered. I was at one of those games he did this.

After an exhaustive search, Getz named GM/VP
It sounds like Nightengale was running with a bunch of nonsense. Maybe JR does ultimately choose him, but as of this point nothing is imminent like Bob’s tweets suggested. I think we can all take a breath and hope that an actual search takes place.

Korey Lee Called Up
Man they REALLY dislike Perez. I know he isn’t the best catcher out there but you’d think the kid would get a small look to see what he’s capable of. He’s had success hitting the ball in Charlotte.

I hope you’re right. I just don’t see it. If there’s one constant to being a Sox fan it’s that you will always be disappointed.

You ever see the end of Old Yeller? Oh well…

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
That’s George Lucas’ wife. Born in Chicago too.

Reinsdorf considers moving White Sox out of Guaranteed Rate Field or selling team
I don’t think MLB would allow it anyways. Manfred wants to expand, not move a 124 yr franchise out of a huge market. It would be more beneficial to just add a team and keep Chicago. I totally think them leaving for the west suburbs could be a real thing though. Just look at all the cities vying for the Bears.

Sox conducting internal interviews to see if dramatic changes are needed
You’d think Hahn would know after how many decades in the organization that JR is never going to give out a $100M+ contract.

Thief steals car from White Sox star’s girlfriend near Wrigley Field
And it’s amazing the amount of “stay out of Chicago business” people are out there that ignore the issues that are hurting the city. I never thought I’d see the day that people get attacked for having an opinion that crime is bad.

We have a winner. Nothing will change until Jerry is dead. This is a big ol fugazi attempt to give the illusion that change is coming.

Sox call up Lenyn Sosa?
Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s Eloy to IL. They said day-2-day, but we all know how amazing this training staff is at completely getting the diagnosis wrong.

8/17 Games
I don’t think Fernandez is much of anything outside of minor league filler. He’s played a ton of 1B this year too, so despite earlier reports I think that tells me everything I need to know about him.

A Sobering Thought...
Wait til people realize the new draft order rules. Sox will be probably worse next year and be guaranteed to pick outside the first 10 picks in 2025. They almost have to be competitive next year or they straight up screwed themselves because of how bad they are this season.

I’d agree, I think they’re much closer to the middle than they have them. Eder and Ramos alone are both fringe top 100 guys.

Colson Montgomery
This is what I figured. Been out long enough with an illness the timing would match up.

Middleton’s Wife Said The White Sox Kicked His Kids Out Of Daycare
Because JR is a pompous prick that thinks he’s better than everyone.

Travis Swaggerty
MLB Trade Rumors claim to have confirmed it’s a MiLB deal.

Travis Swaggerty
Didn’t see this anywhere, but he’s apparently with the Sox now, though there isn’t any confirmation anywhere. He’s got in his bio “Chicago White Sox,” and his wife posted an image of their little girl wearing a Sox shirt. I guess this is a MLB deal?

Was he the guy who said they showed him advanced swing data when they were checking in on him?

New MLB Top 100 Prospects - 3 White Sox Prospects On List
Cespedes is likely a 4th OF if he ever makes the majors but his bat is downright atrocious and right now I don’t see it playing in the majors. I don’t think we ever see Veras advance beyond AA. Lack of innings, way to many walks and he’s supposedly had a velo drop.
-
Deivi Garcia? Edit: Yes, Deivi Garcia. (Claimed by White Sox)
Am I nuts or do the Sox still need to get rid of someone? I count 41 on the 40-Man roster even with the Liam transfer.

Morrissey on JR...
Just another example of the classic JR completely lucking into a great player only for his "just good enough" mentality to take over. Everything this guy is involved in is a giant Fugazi or smoke and mirrors show.

Morrissey on JR...
None. Case in point, Bulls have barely sniffed success since he left.
