If JR wasn't making enough money from the White Sox he would have sold by now. I wouldn't be surprised if the Reinsdorf family kept the White Sox after JRs passing. They tried buying the shares that were sold to Hobson last year. I was under the belief that Hobson bidded more money than the Reinsdorf family.

I thought WSI went out of business a few years ago. I always thought that WSI was one of the oddest things on the internet. It was a G rated forum. If you said anything of any substance you were banned.
-
The one part of the organization that is up to par with the best organizations in baseball is that of making money. This franchise has been a goldmine for JR and his investors.
-
They had Soxfest the winter after the dreadful White Flag Trade. GM Ron Schueler didn't show up at Soxfest that year.
-
i talked to my ticket rep a few days ago and was told there would be a Soxfest 2023. They must have changed there mind.
-
The Cubs will still have the highest ticket prices in MLB. Going to a Cubs game can bankrupt the average fan. Its much cheaper going to a White Sox game. The White Sox have numerous games where the tickets are discounted.
-
Wonder what the reaction would be if Abreu signs with Cubs and the White Sox sign Wilson Contreras.
-
There were thousands of empty seats in Cleveland today. They can't sellout a playoff game.
-
I wish that Hahn had made more trades like the one he did with the Cubs. Getting Eloy and Cease was one of the best trades in the history of the franchise.
-
I'm worried that both Eloy and Abreu won't be on the team in 2023. The 2 best hitters on the team being gone would be terrible. I'm under the impression that Eloys days are numbered here. Just in the last week and a half he was benched 3 times. Eloy has been great since the All Star break and he has been benched recently for no good reason.
-
Is there anybody who really thinks JR cares about the fans? He is simply in the baseball business to make money, of which he has been very good at.
-
I heard on the radio yesterday that the Bad Guys on the Northside are going to have their convention in January. I'm assuming that there will be a Soxfest 2023 and it will be announced soon.
-
He did get a great stadium deal, Problem is he got it built in a unpopular location and the stadium has a miserable upper deck that nobody likes.
-
JR also went on all the TV and radio shows and bad mothed Himes relentlessly after he fired him. It was really a a low class thing to do.
-
I've always found it interesting that JR fired Larry Himes (one of his most successful GMs) but has kept Hahn all these years. This looks like Hahns 8th losing season in 10 years.
-
Good catchers are hard to find. There are rumors that Oakland might move catcher Sean Murphy.
-
I will renew. The White Sox are the only team in the only sport I care about. Also, I wish this season was over with. This has been a very troubling season. I'm already looking forward to the 2023 season.
-
If they put Burger at third base, so be it. I have no doubt that Burgers offensive numbers will be better than Moncadas. Lets hope that Burgers defense improves. But yeah, I would rather have Burger at third than Moncada. Moncada has had 3 bad years in a row offensively. Its time to move on from him.
-
The team released Keuchel this past season. I'm expecting them to do the same thing to Grandal. Hopefully Moncada will be moved to another team. I realize that the team will have to eat alot of Moncadas contract but I'm still hoping There's a change at third base.
-
I agree with you. 2023 should be a much better season. Hopefuly they're able to replace Moncada and Grandal.
-
JR doesn't respond to my letters anymore. Its really a shame because I've really had some good ideas for the franchise. He knows who I am. I've talked to him a few times at Soxfest. He simply won't respond to me anymore. Being a season ticket holder you would think I would get some type of respnse from him but thats not the case anymore.
-
Wonder what the reaction would be if TLR was brought back to manage the White Sox in 2023.
-
The wife Of George Lucas bought 30% of the White Sox last year. Maybe she will buy the rest of the team one of these days.

9/25 Tigers @ White Sox - The No Game Thread Yet? Gamethread
WBWSF replied to Middle Buffalo's topic in 2022 Season in Review
1) Is there any reason why Eloy wasn't in the lineup today? The Tigers had a lefty going and Eloy was on the bench. 2) The White Sox drew over 100,000 fans for these 3 games against the Tigers and seemed like they were just going thru the motions. -
9/24/22 Tigers @ White Sox 6:10 PM CDT
WBWSF replied to CaliSoxFanViaSWside's topic in 2022 Season in Review
Just curious. What makes you think Anderson won't be on the team next year? If they moved him, who would play shortstop?
