  1. Don't forget they pulled that crap with Kimbrel's option for $16M with the intent to trade him.
  2. At this point I just want them to get anything and move on.
  3. Love seeing both Teel and Q in the lineup.
  4. That was a fun game. Teel looks like he belongs.
  5. Tony keeps racking up DUI's. They get expensive after a while.
  6. Guy got prematurely paid, can't stay healthy, he fails to make adjustments, and the league figured him out.
  7. Honestly, I really wanted Jerry taking the all-time loss record with him to the grave. The dirty old bastard is getting bailed out.
  8. Honestly, this would be the best time for him to go down with a long term injury. This team is dead for the next few seasons. Hopefully he's absolutely fine.
  9. I think he must have read this thread or something before this start.
  10. I think this says more about Jerry, than Getz. Jerry is always looking to spend $0.50 in hopes of getting more than he paid for.
  11. I've... literally never said he doesn't deserve a shot (or want him to fail). How you are coming to that conclusion by me having low expectations because his profile historically doesn't breed success is beyond me.
  12. He definitely deserved the promotion.
  13. He was a top 30 guy in the Yankees system. His savant shows elite extension and his Curve and Sweeper seem to be above average movement-wise. At least he's 25, so maybe they have something they can work with instead of some of the other stiffs in the pen.
  14. Choosing to look at a much larger sample size of data to make a guess how a player may perform is wrong? I wish the kid all the success he can get, but I'm not sold on him being a savior of the White Sox after 112 AB's in Charlotte. Let's see him do it in the majors and prove me wrong.
  15. Before this year, Elko rocked a 7.0 BB% in the minors. I would tend to lean that the 11.6% we are seeing this year, is likely more of an outlier than some drastic change. He's never really been known as a patient hitter.
  16. Would it really surprise you if they did that? If it doesn't make sense, it's probably a White Sox move. Adding Maton back made zero sense. His spot should have been Elko's.
  17. Maybe the phantom IL Chase? Do we know why he was scratched last night?
  18. The lack of plate discipline and high K% isn't something that leads me to believe he will have long term success or turn into a potential long term answer for this team. But the kid is deserving to get a shot and can't be much worse than what we are seeing from Vaughn.
  19. Absolutely terrible news. What a shame to have a life cut so tragically short. RIP Heads.
  20. The design itself isn't bad, like you said the flying sock logo is actually pretty nice. It's just an incredibly lazy ass design. The point of these is to connect it the team to the city of Chicago, and this fails miserably at that. There is nothing connecting the Sox and Bulls outside of piss-poor ownership.
  21. Could be something, could also be as simple as the law of averages finally catching up after having such a great decade.
  22. Getz is a yes-boy, and Clevinger has a deep connection to one of the stakeholders in the team. He's going to do as he is told.
