Tremendous victory!!!!

I'm expecting the next few years will have very low payrolls. Will the money be used towards building the new stadium in the South Loop?

The new White Sox stadium will happen. JR will have to pay for half of it. ($600 million) It will be a great thing for the franchise. The new White Sox stadium is a better deal for the city than the Bears stadium.

I heard Getz say there's not going to be any short cuts to this situation. Which tells me they're not going to spend any money this off season on any good free agents. Looks like a few more real bad years.

Its a great thing to lower the prices. After all, you can't beat fun at the old ballpark!!!!

Maybe the White Sox can trade for Burger and bring him back for the 2025 season.

Older White Sox fans remember how Harry Caray changed his act when he went to the Cubs. The Cubs ownership would have never tolerated the real Harry Caray. Caray became a houseman for the Cubs.

Steve Stone said on TV the other night that alot of the present players won't be on the team next year. Maybe he knows something that we don't.

I hope you're right.

I'm under the impression that the owners don't care if this team loses.

This ownership/management team rubs me as if they're content with this losing situation. They've done nothing to improve this team since the beginning of this season.

After getting nothing for Fedde I'm beginning to worry that we get nothing for Crochet.

Wouldn't the team be better off if Fedde wasn't traded and still on the team? To get nothing for him is bad. I remember when Hahn traded David Robertson to the Yankees for nothing. I couldn't relate trading a good pitcher for nothing. Trading Fedde for nothing is similar to the Robertson trade. This was nothing but a salary dump. The payroll next year will probably be the lowest in MLB. Low payroll equals big profits for JR.

From what I've been told if JR was to sell the team he would have to pay almost $300 million in capital gain taxes. In other words, he's not selling the team as long as he's living.

Most managers would have been fired by now but not Grifol. This whole miserable situation tells me that management is content with this losing and they don't care if the the team wins or loses. .I think their game plan is to have the lowest payroll in MLB in 2025.

It seems to me that management is content with this losing situation. From what I can see the game plan is too have the lowest payroll in MLB for the 2025 season. 2025 should be another bad year but a very profitable one with the low payroll. In 2018 the team lost 100 games and was the 6th most profitable team in MLB with the low payroll.

JR said he would pay $200 million towards the new stadium. Keep in mind that was in the original statement. The Rays have agreed to pay for half of their new stadium in St.Pete. They are paying $600 million towards it. If JR pays for half of the new stadium (which would be $600 million his share) it will be built.

The Sun Times reported that the owners of the Bulls and Blackhawks will spend over $7 billion dollars on the area surrounding the United Center. I would think that JR will be putting in alot of money towards the new White Sox stadium in the South Loop soon.

There are rumors that the Tigers are going to try to sign Juan Soto when he becomes a free agent.

I'm under the impression that money is not going to be spent on players. The money will be spent on the new stadium. I'm told if the White Sox pay for half of the stadium, it will be built. The owners of the Rays have agreed to pay for half of the cost for the new stadium in St. Pete.

I remember after the terrible 1970 season the team traded Aparicio and Ken Berry. They still had John, Horlen, May, Melton and Wood. If they trade Robert Jr, Crochet and Fedde this team will be left with nothing but prospects.

i just noticed that the White Sox are giving out a Crochet Star Wars bobblehead (special ticket) on Friday August 30. Wonder what they will do with the bobbleheads if he is traded.

Glad to see that he was called up. Hopefully he will be successful and will lead us to a better second half of the season.

With all the justified criticism of Maldonado I think people have overlooked how bad Michael Soroka has been. He's 0-10 with no saves and has a ERA 5.23 They keep pitching him and he can't get anybody out. Looks to me like they will continue pitching him. I actually think its possible he might finish with 20 losses. I've touched on this before but I actually feel that management doesn't care if this team keeps losing.

I'm under the impression that White Sox management isn't upset over whats happened to the present team.
