Not even close. Pollack sure, but Eloy (when healthy) and Vaughn we weren’t getting better bats. Harrison has actually been solid the past few months, you weren’t finding a LH 2B to replace him. So yeah, you could have improved the OF defense…but the team is already a bottom 10 offense, it would have been a net neutral most likely. What realistic trade target would you have acquired that would have turned this team around?

The season was already lost. Trading prospects to try and save a sinking ship is dumb

To each their own, but it’s been painfully obvious to me all year that this team has shown 0 heart or fight to think they could even come close to competing for a championship. And whatever 2 mediocre left handed bats were available to the Sox weren’t going to change that….not even sure where you’re fitting 2 bats into the lineup and improving it anyway

At the VERY minimum Menechino should have been fired a long time ago. Obviously LaRussa should have been fired too. The coaching/decision making is bad enough, but imo there’s too much smoke for there not to be some truth to the Sox having a bad clubhouse. It’s obvious that the demeanor of pretty much the entire team sucks. The apathy towards underachieving is hard to watch. I have no problem with not trading whatever few prospects we have for help at the trade deadline tho. It was far too late to think that any minor improvement was really going to turn this team around. 1 of the very few correct decisions by Hahn

As poorly as this organization is run I think people are a little naive with some of these comments. There’s no way the White Sox are run with a giant piggy bank with all of the $ coming out of the same place. There has to be separate budgets for separate things, that’s how any/every business is ran. The player payroll isn’t stopping this organization from hiring analytic people to sit in an office for 100K a year. Now, why the budget for analytics is so low is a good question. Do Hahn/KW not value it and that’s why? Or is that all of the budget they are given? Something we’ll probably never know

The fat lady is singing loud and clear…this season is over

Ya we definitely have a lot more a Grandal problem than a Vaughn problem. Don’t know how much $ and/or prospects we’d have to include to get out of the last year of his deal, but that route should be explored before trading Vaughn. I think a LF/DH platoon of Vaughn and Eloy is more than sufficient if they are both hitting.

Yoan is out most clutch hitter…makes 0 sense but I’ll take it

Splitting time with Seby is fine, but he should never be DH.

What is it going to take to give up on Yaz?

You don’t even need eyes to know how good Colas is. Just the sound the ball makes jumping off of his bat is special

Crazy to see this team to have life and a desire to win. It’s like they’ve been revived from the dead

Yoan!!!!!!!

Yeah the bunt was painfully obvious. Just need to manufacture 1 run and stay out of double play…of course Sox do opposite

2nd 3 ball count in the 7th is absolutely insane. Story of why the offense has been so bad

I know it’s on going joke…but it does seem like there’s a force field at the warming track for the Sox

Way too many high stress pitches there for Cease…not his fault, but going to need the pen in this 1 unfortunately

Gotta be caught.

Wow Altuve of all people making a huge boneheaded play

Huh? Didn’t see that

Holy shit

Yaz’s new approach…just hope they put me on. And I don’t hate it …

Lol Tony wakes up a few mins later and realized he should pinch run

Why on earth is dusty weren’t batting gloves?

Batting Yaz and Moncada back to back is inexcusable And so is this teams inability to take pitches….just awful with RISP
