  1. Other than the South Loop what other location is there? Maybe Rosemont?
  2. I would think it would be a mistake if their wasn't any parking. Alot of their fan base from the suburbs come in their car. One of the reasons why I go to White Sox games is because the parking lots are great.
  3. Rebuilding is another word for losing on purpose. 8 members of the 1919 White Sox were thrown out of MLB for taking money to lose on purpose. JR is doing the same thing. With the low payroll the team has ,he is losing on purpose and making nothing but money in doing so.
  4. I'm just bringing the video to everybodys attention on this site. I think there is a better chance of Portland getting a team.
  5. Speculation on Youtube channel that if the Rays don't go to Orlando the White Sox are being mentioned for Orlando. The Youtube channel is Brodie Brazil.
  6. I'm hoping Elko is in the lineup the rest of the season. Hopefully he will show the organization he belongs on the team.
  7. I would feel alot better about this situation if JR announced what he was going to do. Whether it be a new stadium at some location or stay at the present location or whatever else. I'm really starting to worry about this team staying in the Chicagoland area.
  8. Didn't the last Orioles owner (who died a few months ago) have some arrangement with the minority owner that he was running the team until the old owner died. And isn't that what happened.
  9. He has been hiding for a long time. I would like to see the team have a regular Soxfest and have a seminar with JR taking questions from the fans. It would turn out to be a riot.
  10. That is not the case here with JR. The team lost 121 games in 2024 and he did nothing to improve the team this past off season. It doesn't say much for his character. He's laughing all the way to the bank with this teams low payroll. He hasn't given any indication that he wants to improve the team.
  11. Assuming Ishbia wants to buy the rest of the White Sox stock and will pay for the new stadium, I would hope JR has the decency to sell the team to him. The sooner the better.
  12. I take it that the game plan is to trade some of their pitching for some hitters.
  13. I'm sure the team has tried numerous things to get Luis Robert Jr hitting again. Nothing has worked. It seems to me that he had more success as a hitter when he was just know as Luis Robert. Perhaps he should drop the Jr from his name.
  14. I read elsewhere that a new White Sox stadium at the 78 location would only cost $400 million. If that is accurate I would think it would be built there.
  15. Obviously Elko doesn't fit into the plans of the White Sox.
  16. I really wouldn't be surprised if that happened.
  17. Has it dawned on you that this organization doesn't care if it keeps losing games? The team lost 121 games last year and did nothing to improve the team this past off season. All they had to do is spend some money on some hitters and this team wouldn't be 3-15 in one run games. The main objective for this ownership is to get the payroll as low as possible.
  18. Ozzie said changes are coming this week, maybe tomorrow. Perhaps Teel and Elko will be brought up.
  19. Instead of Elko at first base and Vargas at third base the team has Rojas at third base and Vargas at first base. I assumed when Elko was brought up he would be given a decent chance to see what he could produce. That wasn't the case. I remember when he hit a home run in one of the games and then was pinched hit for the nest time up. Perhaps Getz wants to give Rojas a chance after spending $3. 5 million on his contract.
  20. You have Rojas on the team because Getz signed him to a 3.5 million dollar contract.
  21. Can't help but wonder what the White Sox are going to do with Robert Jr. He looks like he couldn't hit me.I know he can't be sent down to the minors without his permission. Maybe he might agree to that. All I know is he doesn't look like a MLB hitter anymore.
  22. Teel and Elko are hitting in the minors. Perhaps they might be called up sooner rather than later. What harm would there be in bringing them up?
  23. The Illinois legislature came up with their budget bill yesterday. Nothing was done about the stadium situation for either the Bears or White Sox. What happens now, if anything? I can't see the Bears paying $5 billion dollars for a new stadium. They're not exactly known for spending money. Unless the Ishbia family pays for a new White Sox stadium I certainly can"t see JR paying for a new stadium. Maybe both teams will just stay at their present stadiums.
  24. The White Sox are now 3-14 in one run games.
