Rick Hahn is the last person you should blame
QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 10:10 PM) The only trade Hahn made in the offseason was bad. Otherwise, he just signed 4 players, 2 of whom are good, 1 bad and 1 so-so. He also missed the opportunity to peddle Alexei. He wasn't able to make small trades to improve C. He put together a terrible bench. I loved the Bonifacio signing. Ideally, he would have 125+ games under his belt by the end of the year because he'd be the primary backup 2B/SS/3B/LF/CF/RF. Instead, we screwed things up by signing Beckham and basically eliminating Bonifacio's role.

Bryant, Soler, Schwarber, Castro, and Almora at a minimum.

Rick Hahn is the last person you should blame
Look, I'm as frustrated as anyone with this team. But Rick Hahn did a tremendous job over the offseason of putting this roster together. Yes, he should be taking more action now, and I think we'll see some very soon, but coming into the year, I was pleased with his work. Before the season, the general concerns on this site were -Catcher -Second base -Back of rotation -Bullpen We were right, as these positions have not performed well for us. However, how could you fault Rick Hahn for the performance of proven veterans? Melky's .240 batting average could not have been predicted, given that he has excelled in recent seasons, even post-steroids. Samardzija is coming off a ~3.00 ERA season, Eaton is supposed to be a .300 hitter, Alexei has never hit this poorly in a season, etc. My point is, it seems as if almost everything has gone wrong this year, but it's not Hahn's fault, because our players are severely underperforming. That is out of his control.

Does Sale deserve better?
QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:51 PM) Chris Sale signed his contract. The end. He's not really moveable because 1) teams overvalue their prospects 2) Sox would ask for an enormous amount of young talent in return for the 3rd pitcher in a century to have 12 Ks in 5 straight games. Exactly. A Chris Sale trade won't be happening anytime soon.

Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:33 PM) The Dodgers wouldn't do it. The only packages team would be willing to part with would be far from equal value for Sale. We'd be the ones to say no to that. A top five player in baseball on a cheap contract is worth more than two top ten prospects.- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:28 PM) This has to be the last game for Ventura and Steverson, right? Not with a day game tomorrow. I think they'd pull the trigger on an off day, if they ever decide to fire him.- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:23 PM) Didn't Chris throw like 125 last time out? Doesn't mean he should do it again and risk an injury. That's what happened last year in mid-April, I believe, the day after throwing ~128.- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:21 PM) There was no reason to pull Sale tonight. Blow this team up including the coaching staff. Pitch count- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
If Sale had a normal offense, he'd be like 10-1- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
f***- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
Didn't know Mitch Moreland was having such a good year. He reminds me of Adam Lind- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
of f***ing course Sale will end up with a no decision. Unbelievable. We couldn't win a game to save our lives.- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
c'mon...- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
In retrospect, I guess I'd be really upset if he gave up a couple hits in the ninth due to fatigue and we lost- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
Closer in caps, White Sox?- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:00 PM) Chris Sale is the best pitcher in baseball. Gerrit Cole- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 19, 2015 -> 09:00 PM) Yes with Robertson ready to go if someone gets on agreed, unless the first batter takes like 10 pitches- 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
kkkkkkkkkkkkkk - 6/19 - White Sox vs Rangers
