I don't dislike Jose on a personal level. Unless you consider my discontent his fat lippers "personal" that is.

As long as you take a reasonable and rational approach to your viewpoint, this is fine.

The part where you are mad about tanking but the tanking rebuilt team will be so stacked with phenoms that it won't need a good player like Jose Abreu, which makes you mad again. You hate tanking, but the result is a theoretical team with phenoms at every position (which would lead to a dynasty), but it upsets you that this dynasty team doesn't haven't Jose Abreu. First off, the dynasty team with phenoms at every position is obviously a pipedream that won't happen. Not everybody will be stars. For some reason it bothers you that the team would be a complete dynasty, because no Jose.

What in the hell are you talking about? Is any of what you wrote there legitimately reality to you?

Is there any way Jose declines the QO? I don't think anybody will sign him until midseason like Kimbrel and Keuchel if he has the draft pick compensation attached to him. Its either he signs the 1/18m~ qualifying offer, or he goes to 2 or 3 years at a discounted price. 2/24 possibly. The White Sox hold all the cards here.

Doesn't he come across as desperate? Give him one year deals like you did to Konerko, NOW. If he has a bad year, bye bye Jose. Thanks for the memories. If he has a good year, sign him to another 1 year deal.

He sounds like a creepy ex girlfriend who refuses the notion of you splitting up with her.

He doesn't even have to drop the obscene amount of money it costs to get a parking spot and a hotdog at the ballgame!

Whoops got them mixed up. You are correct

Acuna needs the money after that garbage contract

https://www.milb.com/scores/whitesox/2019-07-08 Bailey with the usual. 2-2, 2b and a BB. Hitting a cool .404. still has yet to have a game where he doesn't get on base.

What about The Little Magician

@ChiliIrishHammock24 GTFIH. Quit running from who you are. You know you're the official soxtalk nicknamer. You can't escape it! It's your burden!

The Big Magician

HoT FiRe was the creation of @ChiliIrishHammock24. It is the greatest nickname ever created and will never be matched.

What about Little Marco Rubio?

Hopefully he will be managing Robert in the near future

He wasn't even that great last year. He is sporting a -1.1 fWAR and -41 wRC! Think about that. He's done that poorly in so few at bats. He is so bad. I know you can't look at some things without rose colored glasses, but he's been that awful

We actually owe the Big Hurt credit.

But you can definitively say it was Leur's fault I see

President Martin Van Buren was nicknamed the little magician, so everybody bashing it can slow their roll. If it was fit for a president, it's fit for a baseball player

Really disappointing Leury sac bunted when he is so hot and Hendricks is tossing up meatballs

Jose missed a complete meatball there

HR for walker. I know there were rumors about him moving to AA. I'm excited about him, but he didn't exactly torch A+

Then he gets hosed by a bad strike call. I'm so ready for robotic umpires
