8/23 Kirby v. Kopech Gamethread
They’re going to have to come to an agreement with Clevinger, both parties right now can opt out.

8/23 Kirby v. Kopech Gamethread
I hate seeing that regardless of how bad the team is, he’s a professional making a lot of money, someone needs to give him a kick in the ass once in awhile,

8/23 Kirby v. Kopech Gamethread
Where was he earlier in the season, we might have won 1 or 2 more games. One thing is that he has never quit, a lot more than I can say about a lot of guys on the roster.

Yes they would.

A good pitching coach would probably fix him.

Watching Kopech pitch is worse than root canal.

After an exhaustive search, Getz named GM/VP
This is really depressing, Getz is in charge of the worst farm system in baseball and he gets promoted to General Manager. I think JR is losing his mind.

Where were you when you heard the news?
I was watching the Rays-Rockies game and checked in here at SOXTALK and couldn’t believe what I was reading, had to pinch myself to see if I was really awake and hadn’t dozed off. After that I put the Sox game on at 8PM EDT to hear from Bennetti and if there was any further news or firings or if the Sox were moving to Guadalajara.

KW/Hahn - They Gone
I'd love to see it but don’t hold your breath.
-
KW/Hahn - They Gone
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.

Hey, there's also a game tonight gamethread. Mariners @ White Sox 7:10
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.

KW/Hahn - They Gone
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.
-
KW/Hahn - They Gone
This is hard to believe, I’d can Grifol immediately and make Montoyo interim manager.

This Day In Sox History...August 22
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.

"Sell the Team Jerry" Game August 24th
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.

Apparently the Sox won today
I like White Sox wins and hate losing and tanking.

Apparently the Sox won today
Amazing but even the worst teams win 50 or 60 games.

$75M = One of the worst White Sox LF Seasons
You haven’t heard that the Sox will be contenders in 2024?
