Old Sock Drawer, ex Sox player discussion
I'd rather have Yolmer than Garcia on this team. That's the level Garcia has driven me towards.

What is status of Luis Robert?
Hahaha, thanks. I'm back to normal as long as I don't go into any pitch black rooms. That doctor was legit awesome.

long Term Contracts
The only hope we have of seeing Cease stick around after that contract is up is if Jerry is worm food before it happens. Absolutely sucks that this organization is such a penny pincher when it comes to playing ball with the big boy teams.

Trade Rumors Catch-all
Plus a 23 yr old in A ball isn’t something to exactly drool over. At least AA is a much more age appropriate level for him.

If Boston are sellers...
Really? Their main get for Betts, and they already want to move on from him? He’s a solid player.
-
If the Sox trade for Juan Soto we have a chance.
This. This team is never going to land the big name player until JR is gone.

Have you seen a worse managed game?
He never was. Look at the players he had. Most overrated “HOF” manager in the history of the game. He doesn’t belong there, but got lucky worth the players he had on his teams.

7/23 Sox / Guardians G2 6:15PM TLR promoted yet?
100% agree. Renteria was absolutely a better manager.

7/23 Guardians vs White Sox G1 12:10 PM: McKenzie vs Cueto
This game is over. I will never understand the lovefest some people have with Zavala. He is downright awful. I don't ever remember him ever being able to block a ball at home.

What is status of Luis Robert?
I wonder if he has vestibular neuritis. I suffered from it roughly 6-7 years ago and it took me months to finally feel better. A nasty vertigo attack that last 8 hrs and gave me 35% damage to my right vestibule nerve. I was even misdiagnosed with Meniere’s until a dizzy doctor downtown helped me out. I had to do a bunch of physical therapy to “rewire” how my brain worked so my balance got back to normal. The constant feeling of being dizzy or off was a prominent problem after the attack happened. Really annoying and aggravating until that doctor figured out what was wrong.

Loidel Chapelli
I think given his age, you can’t put much stock into what he’s doing. He’s a top 30 talent, but he needs to be facing age appropriate competition before you can honestly evaluate him fairly. It would be amazing if his power stroke was legit. I’m really looking forward to where he ends up next season. Could be a fun one to watch come up through the system.

2022 draft Day 3, rounds 11-20
- White Sox select Noah Schultz #26
This is a good point. Lots of upside along with the risk. Hopefully we see some early results out of these picks. I'd argue all 4 of those guys listed are well within the top 30 rankings of the farm right now.- Your Mid Season Top 10
Colson Montgomery Oscar Colas Noah Schultz Norge Vera Peyton Pallette Lenyn Sosa Bryan Ramos Wes Kath Jose Rodriguez Sean Burke- 2022 MLB Draft Thread
Keeping my fingers crossed they don’t have to punt any picks. Do we know what Pallette is asking for?- 2022 MLB Draft Thread
Wow. I figured Toman was going to school. That's a great get there for Toronto.- 2022 MLB Draft Thread
Prielipp and Toman both going to be there for the taking?- 2022 MLB Draft Thread
I'd be happy with that. Toman is my preferred guy.- 7/16 Sox @ Twinkies 2:00PM Let’s get over .500!!
Lynn's fastball is down in velocity and movement according to Savant. Little worrisome since he is 35, but hopefully its because he had no ST. He just isn't dependable at all right now.- AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX GET TO .500 WINNER OVER THE TWINKIES
Great win. Pull off a W tomorrow and they might be flipping me to a believer they can still pull this off. Need Lynn to show up in a big way tomorrow.- 7/15 Games
It's embarrassing how bad Charlotte's pitching has been. I'll never understand why the Sox are incapable of bringing in some AAAA arms to give a little depth.- Eloy is dead. Again.
- Fire Tony Chant
He does owe Ricky an apology. I’d hate to be compared to that bumbling drunk prick too.- Shane Riordan sucks and knows nothing
With how arrogant Tony is, I can’t see him stepping down. He’s the type of person that will blame everything else before taking responsibility himself.- Grind out at bats, take pitches , protect with 2 strikes
He totally has to be responsible for some of this mess. Someone is giving these players reports on the pitchers and their tendencies. Someone is giving these hitters a game plan. If it isn’t the hitting coach who else could it be? These guys aren’t all magically coming up with the same strategy game after game after game. These player bought into some bad philosophy that the only thing that matters is putting the ball in play. Menechino is literally on record with his “fuck the home run” comment. - White Sox select Noah Schultz #26
