The Mighty Mite

From what I read is that Hahn and KW didn’t agree on quite a few things, the next guy should be GM with no one to answer to but to JR. For instance Hahn interviewed Grifol and decided he wanted him but then Grifol had to be interviewed by KW who gave the final OK. Hahn also didn’t want to trade Burger but it was KW who made the trade, what’s the point of having a GM who basically didn’t have all that much control, sounds like we had too many cooks in the kitchen.

It’s a damn shame that players can’t be fired, there is only one guy on the roster who has exceeded expectations. There are some like Cease, Vaughn and maybe Eloy who are tradable and some like Moncada who aren’t . The new GM whoever he may be will have one monumental job making the Sox a contender again. My guess is we are looking at another 3 years of a rebuilding period unless JR has an epiphany and opens up the checkbook and allows the new GM to sign some premier free agents.

In 2 seasons the Sox improved so much they came close to winning the division in 1972, if Melton hadn’t hurt his back they might have won it.

I don’t get the Tribune, can you give a short recap of the article.

I’m thinking Stone, Steve is no dummy and knows the game.

Getz has flourished as minor league director, on what planet.

This is hard to believe, I’d can Grifol immediately and make Montoyo interim manager.

IIRC there was another group that wanted to buy the Sox at the time, I want to say it was headed by a guy named Farley.

Eloy really hustling on that grounder.

Mike Huff seems like a nice guy but he’s delusional.

This is going to be a 20 run game for the M’s.

This game is already ugly.

I’ll always remember that night as I became a JR and EE hater and nothing has changed in these past 40 years to change my mind, even winning the WS. They showed their true colors that night and showed everyone that they were the scumbags.

I like White Sox wins and hate losing and tanking.

Amazing but even the worst teams win 50 or 60 games.

You haven’t heard that the Sox will be contenders in 2024?

I’m giving Benintendi a pass this year because I don’t think his wrist is 100%, he has trouble pulling the ball and I’m sure it’s because of the wrist. That being said he’s not a big run producer that you want from a leftfielder, hopefully he’s 100% next year and he will probably give you 15 homers and 80 RBI while batting close to .300 with an OPS around .780.

Exactly and who is doing the interviewing and who are the ones that are being interviewed. What a sorry joke.

This team is so hard to watch, why do we torture ourselves.

We haven’t had a game that mattered since early April.

The pitching except for a couple guys was horrible, they were last in the AL in ERA, the offense in most categories was about middle of the pack, they were weak at first base and second base.

As I mentioned a few other times, the 1970 team which went 56-106 was a lot more fun to watch than the stiffs that make up the 2023 White Sox roster.

The Chicago skyline is one of the best in the world but from 35th street you just don’t get the magnificence of it from that distance which is about 4.5 miles. Somewhere around Roosevelt road and Clark street would work, there are some abandoned railroad tracks just south of there.

Literally between a rock and a hard place. Too bad Trayce can’t hit.

They have Sheets playing pretty deep to give him a better chance on long fly balls.
