  1. PEI 101: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=How+do+private+equity+investors+leverage+debt%3F
  2. I understand the stats. IMO, it makes no sense to sit him on the bench every time a team has a LH starter. As far as leading Chase off in stead of Sam against LH pitchers, I see your point.
  3. LOL, his "contributions" will be exchanged for newly issues shares. LMFAO Classic PEI move making a leveraged buyout more likely even prior to the expected timetable. All of Ishbia's moves appear absolutely Trumpian. Maybe, as one poster suggests, he names the new stadium "Shore Capital Park". Gotta love that mansion he and his wife have on the North shore complete with horse stables. What a grifter.
  4. White Sox pitching should take advantage of the Guardians in the next 6 games or for however long they will be without Jose Ramirez, Chase DeLauter, and Angel Martinez. Ramirez has been a thorn in the side of White Sox pitching as all Sox fans know... Guardians line-up looks pretty weak right now. Shut them down and sweep the series.
  5. "batting splits are for the entire game when the starter was LH or RH. These splits include any subsequent plate appearances against a reliever regardless of their throwing hand." So....when an opposing team deploys a LH starter , his split BA goes up to .325 (Baseball Reference.com) That, and the fact that Venable wants some of the young players like Chase, Colson and Sam to face good starting pitchers no matter if they are LH or a RH. My own opinion is that Chase, Antonacci and Peters are gamers and therefore, I like them in the line-up whenever they are able to play.
  6. Provide a link with some evidence to support your statement. While Ishbia, like any minority shareholder can invest or personally agree to take on debt (which ss a PEI, Ishbia is an expert at), I have not read that Ishbia is "bailing out Jerry." It sounds like another meme.
  7. Ishbia is free to underwrite a large contract extension for Mune. Apparently he is leaving that decision up to Reindorf, a cheap greedy owner according to numerous Sox fans. As far as Ishbia being greedy and manipulative, look no further than the shenanigans he and his wife pulled in Winnetka. I find those people to be rather despicable.
  8. Stop with the attempted comparisons with Madrigal. Two different players,
  9. Chase is not going anywhere. What a great player.
  10. SS2K: As I stated, JR had no process that included fan input or the concerns of local businesses or the community....and there is none now. I think you agree. Hypothetically, IF I had Ishbia's money (I would be retired) , in addition to focusing on building a new stadium and entertainment district I would work with the current majority stockholders including, (yes, the demon himself, JR), to sign/extend the outstanding players as necessary to solidify the core moving forward. I do not want to lose Mune to the Dodgers , Yankees etc.
  11. Wishes? Wishes are like hopes and dreams and prayers - they only reside between ones ears. Truth is real. That which is not real does not exist. The truth of the matter is that Ishbia is far along in the process of moving the White Sox. That is almost a done deal. Just like when Reinsdorf decided on a new stadium design and location for the White Sox, there was no process that included fan input or the concerns of local businesses or the community. This is business for this guy. Big business. Forget about anything else.
  12. Ishbia isn't cheap like Jerry (lol) but he is a greedy son of a b**** PEI who does as he pleases and gets what he wants (e.g., see how he built his Winnetka mansion). Rest assured, Ishbia will move the Sox from their South side home. I recently read that one of his Delaware LLCs (Canal LLC or something like that) has applied to take advantage of a $380+ million dollar Federal loan to relocate the Amtrak rail yard to one of the parking lots at Rate field. So he is beyond the point of considering alternatives as you suggest. The only remaining question for him seems to be whether the stadium will be built on the East side or West side of the Canal.
  13. You sound angry. What a fvked up post.
  14. Sox should have charged the mound when Montero threw at Acuna. That was Bulshit.
  15. What about the regression you expected?
  16. How did yelling the F bomb at Skubal work out for the White Sox yesterday? Maybe he should have charged the mound, lol. No, just a lame attempt to elevate Vasil' relevance. This came off like the fan exchanging vulgarities with PCA or in some way, Fisk going into the outfield stands and talking to an outfielder after he was released. Yes, Vasil can shout F. U to pitchers and act like a clown, at least for now.
  17. We'll see how long his dugout shenanigans go on before Getz puts some restrictions on Vasil, like - don't use the "f" word to call out an opposing pitcher while he is on the mound. I don't scream at clouds, I look at clouds from both sides .
  18. At least Andy the Clown stayed in the stands , until they banned him. Vasil is getting a free ride with the White Sox including travel, meals and expenses. He can earn that privilege by staying in the bullpen to help relievers prepare....not cl0wning around in the dugout. Vasil crossed a line by exchanging words with Skubal. He isn't an active player or a coach so he had no business doing that. I will bet that Vasil's antics will not be tolerated by Getz much longer. This team has to focus and Vasil has made himself into a clown and a distraction.
  19. ok...jabroni.
  20. Not sure why Acuna would be cut instead of Jacob Gonzalez when Mune comes back...although I have no issue with cutting Acuna if/when another infielder comes up. I guess I have not seen enough of Jacob Gonzalez at any position other than 1st base. Just from seeing him at a few games and on TV. he looks like a big dude that handles 1B pretty well, but maybe , I am guessing, doesn't have the quickness and range that Acuna has to play SS or 2B. JMHO..
  21. Facts? The Sox won the World Series in 2005. Six NBA World Championships. The Cubs have only one one World series over the last 100 years or so. Inconvenient truth for Sox trolls or those with Reinsdorf derangement syndrome.
