Lip Man 1

That was my first thought too.

Over at MLB.com they have their early projections for the June draft. Here is what they say for the White Sox: "5. White Sox: Nick Kurtz, 1B, Wake Forest (No. 4) Kurtz has shaken off a slow start to the 2024 season and seems to homer in just about every game. He’s now up 18 long balls to go along with a .305/.524/.805 line. He has a 1.409 OPS in ACC play." Just my guess but if they do draft another first baseman that seems to say a few things about Vaughn doesn't it?

That is your opinion of course which you are entitled to.

Yes

We've talked about games he's gone to as a kid. His family were all Sox fans. He told me about the Sox players he liked growing up among other things.

Speaking of Sully (who is a Sox fan by the way, I've known him for years) he has an interesting look back at Harry's days with the Sox vis a vis the recent announcer controversy: https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/05/02/chicago-white-sox-harry-caray-legacy/

And why should they watch or care about these buffoons. The organization should get down on their knees and thank God ANY Sox fan still gives a tinkers cuss (ya' like that phraseology? LOL) about this disaster.

That was the second deal Minnie was involved in before the 1960 season.

It's an off-day.

The issue is JR doesn't like to have to pay people not to work and Grifol still has a multi-year contract.

Just saw a story in the Sun-Times a few days ago talking about the guy the Sox hired for the job of psychologist.

Hard to argue with it. And I didn't know he ducked all interviews after it: https://chicago.suntimes.com/sports-media/2024/05/02/white-sox-tv-voice-john-schriffen-home-run-hater-steve-stone-andrew-benintendi-nbc-sports-chicago

Given the political climate and the resentment of the average citizen over a number of things today, unless the Bears can somehow (along with the White Sox) bridge a very sizable divide, I simply can not see the public going along with this. Politicians are concerned about one thing only, their asses, they want to get reelected. If the public backlash is strong enough they simply will not agree to giving the teams basically a blank check.

A few weeks ago Ozzie on the postgame show said he didn't want to manage again.

My how things have turned from his original press conference where he talked about kicking everyone's ass. ?

All you can do is laugh at these buffoons.

You are what your record says you are and this team/organization maybe the worst in baseball. You don't like teams dissing you, laughing at you? Do something about it besides rolling over and dying.

Back to the same old Dead Sox. 6th time this year the Sox took a lead into the 7th inning or later...and lost the game.

Remember if you finish second, third or fourth doesn't mean you had a bad year. ?
