Love you Pito, always will. It will pain me to see you play elsewhere, but it’s the right move.

They are certainly a bit more tarnished than they were in 2020. How much of that a candidate puts on TLR, injuries, or the FO we don't know.

Gotcha. Arb numbers will definitely bump that up. Without playoff revenue and a likely hit in season tix who knows how much payroll they have allotted to fix this mess.

Oh I know, but a person can dream. The FO will be in place as long as JR runs things, with no semblance of accountability whatsoever.

They all look pretty stone-faced like they’d rather be anywhere else. Or had to sit there against their will.

Espada or Beltran are my top 2 known names. I just want a thorough professional process and not the lazy retread path we are used to.

Should that lux tax number be 237M not 137? Sadly with how much Harrison has been playing recently I think they are bringing him back. It’s completely lazy but I can totally see it happening. Engel & Ruiz should both be non-tendered. I would guess AJ probably opts in. Hahn already telegraphed that they won’t be very active in FA so I’m not expecting much. We are probably in for another frustrating winter of inaction.

No to Cairo, Bochy, or Willie Harris. If they settle for any of these three they didn’t try hard enough.

Since he isn’t going anywhere now, might as well let him go down with the sinking ship. Let a new GM tear down & rebuild. I sure as hell don’t want these hacks to get another shot.

Why yes, yes I do. ?

Only reason to give these clowns the extra cash would be to ask tough questions during Q&A portions. I would be surprised if it happened after this catastrophe of a season.

His pixie dust magic definitely seems to be wearing off.

Oh goodie, 2-0…

Is it just me, or do these Hahn quotes just drip with the same hubris that lead us to where we are today?

TLR would be the perfect fit here, if they weren’t so earnest in their wild belief that he was the answer to what they needed. It had everything you needed for a fish out of water comedy show. Except it was real and they were serious. And we are all now traumatised by the experience.

I emailed Brooks and a few others. I might have to dig through my email to find those responses.

Yeah, being an upgrade to TLR isn’t a high bar to clear, but there are still plenty of ways to screw it up.

Yeah, wasn’t sure I read that right, but decided to leave it alone ?.

I’m not expecting an overhaul, but something has to give between Eloy, AV, & Abreu. They need a real RF and a legit LH power bat not named Gavin Sheets. A 5th starter reclamation project to replace Cueto I think would be likely. 2B feels like the inevitable return of Harrison who will suck ass for 75% of the season again. Another uninspired winter with some window dressing and a new manager at the helm.

It wouldn’t be our White Sox if they weren’t going about their business completely ass-backwards.

Beltran was punished, which is strangely why I think I’m ok with him. Same with Hinch. The rest of those smug assholes I will probably resent forever.

This The players underperformed no doubt. The manager and coaching sucked. The GM signing Leury to a 3 year deal and failing to address RF or add impactful LH power failed too. The decision makers failed. But the players aren’t signing or trading themselves or putting out a stupid shitty lineup every day. There needs to be accountability on the field, in the dugout & clubhouse, and for those putting the team together. There is enough blame to go around for everyone.

Engel’s defense has completely cratered

Some propaganda level water carrying from Bob this morning. I hope those clicks keep him warm at night.
