He’s not even close to DFA worthy. Disappointing AF, yes, but he’s still a very useful player. The bat will bounce back next season and the defense is elite.

Nah, but even close

Yeah. I mean, JR didn't get as wealthy as he is being a dumbass or a horseshit businessman. There is no way he's pleased with how this season has gone. His multiple championship window is all but out the window. His young, exciting and vibrant team is now boring and lifeless. He's exceptionally likely to miss out on 2022 playoff revenues with the highest payroll in club history. Attendance is down, and they're certain to lose season ticket holders this offseason. Pretty much everything White Sox related is worse than it was when TLR took over. There is no possible way he's happy about that. Even if he doesn't care about winning, I am sure he cares about the finances, and those things have a ton of synergies.

Ok ok, 6 rip now. Terminology now accepted.

I would agree on the lucky part. That had to hurt so fuckin' bad.

I just.....can't wrap my head around how this org can go into 2023 with LaRussa in the dugout. I am still in the "believe it when I see it camp" for sure, but holy fuck, there is no way they're THAT incompetent.

TBF, that hard to hurt really bad. 102 MPH off the elbow with just a thin piece of plastic in between? That's one I understand.

Its 3-0. Wouldn't exactly call that a pounding.

I have low hopes for a W. My optimism is gone. This season is toast. I am sad.

If he was a washed up Vet, he'd have 2 starts by now.

Are you the traveling secretary, or something?

Correct

The mojo was gone about 2 months into 2021. It’s not hard to figure out what lead us to this situation.

Probably need to go 4-1 rest of this week, TBH. Getting buried in a hurry.

I feel quite the opposite. Playing 19 intradivison games gets awfully boring. Seeing new teams and stadiums is fun. It might be a logistical nightmare but it makes the fan experience better IMO.

Welp, Sox back on life support. This 1-5 stretch coupled with Cleveland continuing to play good baseball has just about sealed the Sox fate. Fire everyone.

I don’t really think AV is that disappointing. Dudes is stud at the dish; I’d love to keep him. Just feel like he’s the guy you can get some good value for. A controllable left handed hitting Middle IF would be awesome, but struggle to find a name that makes sense. Eloy is worth more to Sox than anyone else and wouldn’t garner much. Pito a FA obviously so he’s the easy choice, but White Sox. letting Abreu walk and signing Nimmo is the best play, IMO.

This. Sheets should be purely AAA insurance with Burger. You just hope you can get 70 games caught out of Yaz in catching tandem with a defense first FA. But one of Jose, AV or Eloy has to go. I’m keeping Eloy, so it’s one of the other 2 for me. Hard to imagine how bad this squad would be without Pito, but would also be nice to miss his twilight seasons. I’d consider a 2 year $30M deal with Jose and trading AV, but have a really hard time deciding for what, and I’m not doing it for SP.

Actually that isn’t all. Fuck this ump too.

Joe Kelly fucking sucks. That’s the post.

Seems unnecessary.

Imagine 88 would win it by a few games. 86 probably wins it IMO. Your point stands, tho

Well out 2 weeks is better than an acl. We’re paying Yaz next season so may as well try to get him 100% so he can catch 60-70 games, take his walks and hopefully find some power. But don’t rush him back in 2 weeks, this season just isn’t meant to be for Yaz.

Does peacock have a camera on the field or how are you getting this footage? Just curious

Where’s he gonna play? Serious question.
