Hahn has one of the best deals going in MLB/Sports. He has teams that lose year after year and he keeps his job.

Keep in mind that Forbes magazine said a few weeks ago that the White Sox were the 6th most profitable team in MLB in 2018. So you're right, they are not moving. Unfortunately as long as this team remains very profitable, JR is not selling the team.

JR bad mouthed Caray and Piersall a number of times. He has also said bad things about Larry Himes, Bill Gleason and even Dick Allen. A lot of White Sox fans always say that JR is very loyal to his workers. That simply is not true. If he doesn't like you, you're gone from the organization.

Its in the book, Chapter 20-The mayor of Rush Street, Page 209.

I always thought that both JR and Einhorn were jealous of how popular Harry Caray was with White Sox fans.

Yes, at the MLB All Star game at Wrigley Field.

The only good thing JR has done as a White Sox owner is make a ton of money. Other than making money he has been a terrible owner.

I hope that this is true.

If Giolito doesn't come back soon, I hope Hahn doesn't bring back James "Big Game" Shields.

Ozzie Guillen was on the Score this morning and he thought that Cease should be brought up now.

How much longer will Nova and Santana be in the White Sox starting rotation? Better yet, how much longer will Nova and Santana be on the White Sox team? In 2016 Matt Latos was in the starting rotation and was 6-2 with a ERA of 4.62. Hahn took Latos off the team. I won't even post the 2019 records of Nova and Santana. Simply put, there records are BRUTAL. I know enough about Hahn to know that he is a stubborn man who doesn't like to admit to mistakes. I think its fair to say that both Nova and Santana are not only mistakes, they are disasters. The White Sox best pitching prospect is Cease. Every other MLB team would love to have him in there rotation now. Yet he hasn't been brought up and the team is subjected to two bums like Nova and Santana.

At this point in time one would have to say the Rick Hahn era has been nothing short of a major failure.

You stick around working for JR IF you get along with him. If you don't get along with him, you're gone. The best and most productive GM that was hired by JR was Larry Himes. Himes didn't get along nor did he like JR and he was gone. What always got me about the Himes incident was after JR essentially fired him, JR went on all the TV and radio shows and bad mouthed him to death. It was a low class thing on JRs behalf. JR also didn't get along with Harry Caray and Caray was gone. JR called Caray scum after he left the White Sox.

It was mentioned at one of the season ticket seminars a couple of years ago. Hahn really has a great gig going for himself. He has the worse won-loss record of any MLB GM the last 6 years and he keeps his job.

Maybe not. Hahns contract runs out after this season. Another 100 loss season might send him to the unemployment line.

I realize that the 2019 White Sox season is another season of tanking/losing on purpose/and a lost cause. Still, look at 3 of Hahns off season moves. If Alonso, Nova and Santana were traded today you couldn't get a bag of balls for them. On top of that millions of dollars are being spent on these stiffs. Hahn won't spend big money on premium free agents but will waste millions of dollars on Alonso, Nova and Santana.

If JR hadn't been making money with the White Sox franchise in the past he would have sold the team years ago.

Private companies typically don't discuss their financials in any form but JR and his management team for years have said the White Sox aren't making any money and can't afford high priced payrolls. Williams has said numerous times that you can't spend a dollar if you only have 50 cents. They have been crying poor for years and there is simply no truth to that.

Since the report came out by Forbes a few weeks ago, has anybody noticed that none of the White Sox management team has said nothing about it. The reason why they haven't said anything is because they know that the Forbes report is fairly accurate. JR has said for years many times that a winning team is very expensive. Its easier making money with a losing low payroll team. This rebuild/tanking is going to be done as cheaply as possible. Hopefully these young players will start winning some games.

Alonso looks like another Hahn bust. The White Sox would have been better off keeping Avi Garcia and not signing Alonso.

The lineup is certainly something to be upbeat about. Still, I wish I could feel the same way about the starting pitching. I'm afraid that Hahn will trade off some of the young talent for some old pitching.

The White Sox couldn't get a bag of balls for Fulmer in a trade.

I was hoping that Cease would be brought up. I would have liked seeing him against Baltimore next week. Cease going 5 innings against the Orioles would have been interesting.

The White Sox are coming, tra la, tra la!!!!

Hahn has the worse record of any GM in MLB the last 6 seasons. He has wasted millions of dollars on bad players. He won't sign any premium free agents but will waste millions of dollars on LaRoche, Shields, Jay, Alonso and numerous other players. He should count his blessings he still has a job.
