Offseason Targets
In Blackmon's 2019 season (using the last full season), he had a 1.174 OPS in Coors Field and a .731 OPS away from Coors. Given his age, contract and below average defense that will only get worse, no thanks to him as well.

Fire Ricky
Spiegel said he would be surprised if Ricky was let go after this largely successful season in a strange year. He asked Stone what his opinion was and if he had any inside info into the situation. Stone basically said he has no idea whether the sox will retain Ricky or will go a different direction.

Regarding your first point. What do you want the tax rates raised to and how much do you expect it to generate for bailout money? Second point, military spending. Do you honestly expect military spending to be cut? Who is going to do that? Never happens.

Offseason Targets
Eh... Right handed CFer who is turning 35. Im not convinced he would be any more valuable than Adam Engel going forward. No thanks.

Sox should replace Renteria with Ozzie Guillen
Manager - Ozzie Hitting coach - Big Frank Pitching coach - Mark Buehrle Pitching Coach Emeritus - Steve Stone (stays as color commentator though)

@greg775 and I may be enemies who completely hate each other's guts, but this is one thing we can agree on. Bring back Oz.

You want the feds to wipe your ass for you too?- Crochet's arm fine
Go to sleep Bosley. it's clearly past your bedtime.- Sox should replace Renteria with Ozzie Guillen
Billy Martin was a successful manager that got hired then fired multiple times. Give Ozzie another chance- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
There are already measures in place to limit the risk of covid. 25% capacity, 6 foot distance. When did I ever argue about that?- Sox should replace Renteria with Ozzie Guillen
1000%. Oz needs to be managing this team next year, without question.- Offseason Targets
This. I'm scarred and jaded from the White Sox luck with signing old players. I'd rather they put a trade together for a RFer this off-season or midseason. Center it around one of Stiever/Cease/Dunning. Hopefully sign Colas or Cespedes to take over in the future.- Will the Front Office Fire Renteria?
He's already using total homeruns and batting average over a small sample size to justify McCann over Grandal. Very original stuff Damn you bandwagon trolls! I didn't see you around when the team was bad!- Offseason Targets
I hate this idea. Eloy is 23 and will continue to play in the OF. We have a generational type hitter in Andrew Vaughn and we're throwing him away so we can DH a below average outfielder? No chance. Not every outfielder needs to be above average.- Random Prediction Time
Talking to yourself?- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
There's no such thing as personal responsibility or middle ground anymore. Going for a drive? You're a piece of fucking shit who is endangering the lives of every pedestrian on the sidewalk or street. Serving up alcohol at a restaurant? Awful human being who is destroying livers and creating alcoholics. Mass protests in close quarters with many others? God bless you sir!- The effectiveness of Don Cooper
You see what happened to Crochet out there? Coop's gotta go- COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
You can drive, and you can drive while having a blood alcohol level up to .08. Driving is a risk to others whether you are responsible or not. It's about limiting the risk involved. Tex and those by him appear to be doing that.- Random Prediction Time
Maybe the owner will be smart and have a firesale prior to spending big bucks. That team needs a rebuild.- Umpires embarassing themselves all year.
This account cracks me up- McCann
How much of Vaughn have you seen so far?- Random Prediction Time
Yeah, no way I'm trading Cease for Benintendi. - COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
