I read on Google that the White Sox are now considering 3 options for a stadium. Arlington Heights, South Loop and staying at the present location. I wouldn't be all that surprised if a stadium was built in Arlington Heights.

Are there any White Sox fans who care what Hahn Says? I was hoping he would just go away.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, The White Sox Are Coming, Tra La, Tra La!!!!

The first MLB players strike was in 1972. The owners tried stiffing the players of their promised pension money. It was a justified strike by the players union. Santo crossed the picket line and became a scab. Ron "Pizza Man" Santo said he did it out of respect to Cubs owner Phil Wrigley. The players didn't forget that. The owners caved into the players union and the strike was settled.

Maybe they will have a Joe Jackson bobblehead giveaway at The Rate now. I wonder if Buck Weaver and Eddie Cicotte will get into the HOF now also.

Exactly.

Shane Smith, Davis Martin, Burke, Vasil, Vargas, Quero, Meidroth, Baldwin and Elko are here. Schultz, Hagen Smith, Braden Montgomery and Teel should be here sometime in 2026. Things are starting to look up. There's an old saying, The White Sox Are Coming, Tra La, Tra La!!!!

It would be a tremendous boost to have Devers on the team. He can hit, something this team needs and it also would be a good PR move.

Devers is unhappy in Boston. He doesn't want to play either 1st base or DH. He wants to play at 3rd Base where he always played. I would think his days are numbered in Boston. I realize that Getz isn't going to trade for him but some team will acquire him.

If JR wasn't content with this losing he would have improved the team this off season. They lost 121 games last year and he did nothing to improve the team. He could have easily signed 2 hitters and one bullpen pitcher and this would have been a better team. I have no doubt that they will trade Robert Jr and Benedenti for next to nothing. The trades will simply be salary dumps. Last but not least I heard Bruce Levine on the radio this morning and he said that Elko has not been brought up because the organization thinks he's a one tool player. Last I looked Elko has home runs and a high BA. How many tools does Vaughn have? I also wouldn't be surprised if Elko was traded sometime this year to another team who will let him play.

You've mentioned in the past that you didn't think a new stadium in the South Loop wouldn't be that good of a thing. Just curious, if they do get a new stadium, where do you think it should be built?

The White Sox were labeled Winning Ugly in 1983. These past 3 years the team has been Losing Ugly. There has been nothing lovable about this team the last 3 seasons.

It just seems to me that this ownership is content with this losing and low payroll. That's how this comes off to me.I don't think i'm wrong.

This is really an odd situation. The team has had trouble scoring runs and yet they won't bring up their best hitter (Elko) from the minors. I'm beginning to wonder if he'll be brought up before September.

I'm hoping that Elko gets called up sometime this year. I would like to think he deserves a chance.

I was at the games over the weekend and at the team stores and Grandstand. They were crowded with fans looking at the new City Connect apparel. From what I saw people were 't buying alot of the new stuff. The new jerseys are nice but it looks too much like a Bulls jersey. I also think the previous City Connect jerseys are better looking than the new ones. I would think that most fans would rather have old ones instead of the new ones. I'm guessing that the new numerous City Connect hats will be more popular than the new jerseys. I don't know if they release the merchandise sale results but I don't think the new City Connect items will be as popular as the old ones.

I always thought that Sportsvision flopped was because the Chicagoland area wasn't wired for cable.

I can't help but wonder if Tim Anderson is next to be demoted.

Maybe the Rangers will want Vaughn.

It looks like Vaughn is going to stay here and Elko will not be called up. If I was Elko I would ask to be released or traded. What else does Elko have to do in the minors to deserve a shot in the big leagues?

With Meidroth and Quero in the lineup and Vargas and Robert Jr starting to hit, things should start getting better. But still, I can't help but wonder how long this is going to go on with Vaughn, I can't see him being put down to the minors.They're not going to pay him his $5 million dollars to hit in the minors. If he continues to tank I would like to think he would be traded to some other team for not much of anything. The White Sox would probably have to pay most of his contract.

Keeping Elko in the Minors and having Vaughn starting every day tells me this organization is content with losing.

I would like to know what Elko is thinking. He has to be down in the dumps thinking what does he have to do to be promoted.

I hope they don't remove the parking lots at the Rate. Its one of the reasons I go there. The parking lots are great.

The team has had trouble scoring runs the last 2 seasons and yet they won't bring up their hottest minor league hitter. Seems rather odd. Perhaps ownership just doesn't like Elko.
