The Mighty Mite

No you're not stupid, it's the manager who is stupid besides being moronic, idiotic and brain dead.

All I can say is the calligraphy is beautiful.

We usually make a trip to the Trop when the Sox visit St. Pete but I'm so upset and depressed with this team and the manager right now that we will probably take a pass this year. If we go it will be on Sunday so we have time to make our final decision.

It is an achievement for the franchise has it took 121 years to do it. How pathetic.

That seems a bit high, more than a bit high.

Good points, I remember in the 50s and 60s when Chicago was a Sox town. The thing is that the Sox will never have a Wrigley Field where they open the gates and 30,000 flock in regardless of how bad the Cubs are plus they get the out of towners. I can't tell you how many people I have met down here in Florida that visited Chicago and saw a ballgame at Wrigley but not Sox Park.

I don't want the Sox to ever leave Chicago even though I'm a Floridian now as I have lived in the Sunshine State for 29 years. I am curious as where this untapped potential that you speak of is in the Chicago market. My guess is that over 60% of the market belongs to the Cubs plus the city and the metro area are declining in population, the metro area lost 91,000 people from 2020-2021.

Being a North Carolinian, might Jordan move them to Charlotte?

Not surprised at all.

Part of the problem is the front office hyped this guy to be the savior of the franchise and he hasn't come close to those expectations, after all they traded Chris Sale to get him, maybe they put to much pressure on the guy.

Do you think they would join the Bears in Arlington Heights? I think the Sox would do great in the burbs, too bad they were turned down in their efforts to move to Addison back in the late 80's. I have always thought that somewhere near the Hillside Strangler was a great location with all those expressways converging there much like the Orange Crush near Anaheim Stadium. A stadium near that location would put them just about smack dab in the middle of the Metropolitan area.

When JR dies, who exactly would take over, would it one of the other investors? I'm not sure if JR's son would automatically take over. Either way, I would love to see new ownership of the franchise.

It looks that way especially Moncada, I've never been a fan of his and he has taken the place of Claudell Washington as my most despised Sox player in my 70 years as a fan of the team. I will be extremely happy when somehow the Sox dump this piece of garbage on some other team.

The old adage is, "you can never have enough pitching".

Exactly my thoughts.

I originally said yes but now we lost our best player for who knows how long so now it has to be no.

JR and Eddie Einhorn when he was alive were against spending big money on the Minor Leagues and on player development, they didn't care to spend money on potential.

Moncada is a fucking loser.

Agree but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

What could we get for him, he's constantly an injury waiting to happen.

We follow sports as an escape from the rest of the BS in the world, I hate how politics has now become part of the sports world.

Moncada might become insurance for Burger, a very high priced insurance.

The franchise needs a complete housecleaning starting with a new owner. There is a reason this franchise has been mediocre for 41 years and its starts at the top. Of course we did win it all in 2005 but you have to look at the whole enchilada, even when the team wins an occasional division title it falls flat on it's face in the playoffs.
