1) This has become the biggest PR disaster the White Sox has had since the White Flag Trade. The attendance for the following 2 seasons was 1.2 million each season after the trade. The team didn't start drawing decently again until the 2000 season when they won the division. Last years attendance was 1.6 million. I would think its going to be alot lower this coming season. 2) Hahn has said that the money not spent on Machado will be spent eventually. Will it be spent on decent players ? Or will it be put in the owner/investors pockets and spent by them?

I'm not surprised how this has turned out. I never thought JR would sign any big time free agent. I've thought from the beginning of this rebuild/tanking that this would be done as cheaply as possible. So far I've been right.

Can't tell you but I will tell you that there are at least 3 groups of people who want to buy the White Sox.

I was told today that JRs White Sox investors are pressuring him to sell the team ASAP. They're not young men anymore and they want their money. It could happen this year. I hope so.

The White Sox have never lost 100 games two seasons in a row. The 2019 team looks like it could lose 100 games again. But JR and his investors will still laugh all the way to the bank.

This has to be the biggest PR disaster the franchise has had since the White Flag Trade. I wonder what if anything the FO is going to do now.

Hahn won't spend $300 million on Machado but will waste millions of dollars on some of the stiffs you listed. He is the least successful GM in the modern history of the franchise and he keeps his job. His contract runs out after the 2019 season. Hopefully 2019 will be his last year as the GM.

Curly was great. There is nothing great about the White Sox FO.

I'm still hoping we have new ownership by 2020. Would anybody care if JR and his front office were gone from the scene? I remember when Veeck sold the team after the 1980 season. Every White Sox fan was glad to see Veeck gone. I would think White Sox fans would feel the same way if JR was gone.

The day Hahn is gone I will write JR a letter requesting a interview to be the White Sox GM. And yes I will notify everybody on this site and I will post the letter here.

Hahns contract runs out after the 2019 season. I would like to think if 2019 is another bad season the Rick Hahn era will be over. I will write JR another letter requesting an interview to be the White Sox GM.

If Hahn doesn't sign Manny I have no doubt in my mind he'll bring back Adam LaRoche.

Who did the White Sox offer for Robinson?

1) I was at Soxfest yesterday. It was crowded. They claim that the event was sold out for the weekend. I wonder how many people attend this event. How many people are considered a sellout? 2) Some people said that next years Soxfest will be moved to McCormick Place. We shall see.

Hawk is 77 years old. JR is 82 years old. If its time for Hawk to go, isn't it time for JR to leave the scene also?

I still miss the great broadcasts of Bob Elson.

White Sox GM Ron Schueler didn't come to Soxfest 98 after the White Flag Trade was made a few months earlier.

If Hahn doesn't do something about this starting pitching staff the team is looking at another 100 loss season.

I would rather take my chances with Keuchel than Giolito, Covey or Fulmer.

The team has no starting pitching. I wish Hahn would sign Dallas Keuchel.

I received a DVD put out by Rare Sportsfilms inc. The DVD is called The 1966 Chicago White Sox, A Look At The Sox. This is a vintage WGN Tv film that was put out right before the 1966 season. Its a 52 minute film.

I have no complaints about this site. Freedom of speech is accepted here. At times the comments get kind of rough but this site is the real world. If people don't like what is being said here they should go to WSI, the Mickey Mouse of White Sox sites.

I don't follow minor league baseball. Who is Kris Bryant?

JR will announce soon that he has extended the contract of Hahn.
