    He and Colas were supposed to be two huge gets when they happened. I hope the Yankees get his World Series ring size right. 

    Eh, not so sure about Colas. I was high on Vera, but I don't think people in the know were TOO high on Colas. It was typical White Sox BS where they blew their international load on an older prospect. He was far from can't miss.

    Thinking history of SoxTalk has made me realize that some GOAT trolls have came and went.

    Some of you weren't even here for the Marty or Victory days.

    Marty is still here. He is tray. He even made it obvious with his username. You can't spell "Marty" with T-R-A-Y.

    And he also insulted that Downtown Brown guy who always made creepy Jeep references in all of his posts and now I don't ever see him anymore and can't laugh at how weird he is.

    I don't even know who this Downtown Brown guy is, but by the sound of it this seems like Harold's greatest offense. Fucking Harold.

    Also Montgomery ice cold after a brief hot streak. .215 on the season. No bueno. 

    Is it safe to say he is no longer a top 100 guy? Especially since he will likely be a 3B.

    And that's just our GM.

    Don't forget about our owner. He was reminiscing about David Eckstein when he spoke during the Getz press conference. He loves shitty players like that.

    The 2021 White Sox won 93 games with Robert missing 94 games, Eloy missing 107, and TA missing 39.

    Bob Nightingale said that TLR deserved a plaque for managing that team to 93 wins. He may not be wrong.

    He took a team that was probably a 75 win team talent wise last year and led them to a 100 loss season. This year it's a 60 win team and he's leading them towards a 40 win season. At this point it's pretty clear that he's a big reason for why this team sucks so historically bad.

    Nothing about this roster is a 60 win team. That's such a massive stretch. The talent is horrendous. Grifol isn't costing them 20 wins, lol.

    I actually worked out drunk AF last night. It was wild, never really tried it funnily enough. I was so sloppy on my dumb bell flies looked like a total noob I'm sure. It was fun tho once i got going, was jamming to my music and ripping off zercher squats at the end.

    Sounds like a terrible idea

    Jose Abreu is 4-for-62 with one RBI. Must be frustrating for Jose. U think if this keeps up he'll hang 'em up? Of course he's always started slowly but yikes 4-for-62 is pretty Darin Erstad-ish. (forgive me for starting a new thread but with the Sox 3-21 I think you can forgive me. Not like there's much to discuss).

    He lied about his age and/or stopped taking steroids

    I have watched him a lot since he was drafted.  Just a good baseball player. Balanced swing from both sides. Probably better with a little more juice as a lefty.  Controls the zone pretty well.  Above average speed, but not a burner like Ellis.  Can put a charge into the ball for a skinnier guy. His second double tonight was crushed. Good defender in both the infield and the outfield.  Has played 7 positions as a pro.  OK at short and centerfield. Better at 2b, 3b, and the corners.  Was the MVP of the mid-major Colonial Athletic league where he played 2b. His Dad was a prominent player for Clemson back in the day. 

    So you're saying we found Ben Zobrist 2.0?

    Maybe Hawk can come back in a managing role.

    I miss him.  We all miss him.  Ratings would increase.

    Hawk is simply the best. I have no doubt he could still call a game.

    Since it seems to be leaning this way (about his son) - what should we expect out of him as an owner?

    Look at the Bulls. The VP/GM duo is an absolute disaster. Any normal organization would have fired them by now, but they still have a job. It's basically the same old Reinsdorf BS.
