  1. True that, but do fans want another green monster ricochet wall ? Better to acquire more land and according to 77 Hitmen, that seems to be the direction.
  2. If the point was/is to gain some offense out of the catcher position, nothing that Getz has done since the Teel ankle injury, including the Bart deal, makes a stitch of common sense. In order to "go for it" with this team, this year, he should have traded for a catcher (and a legit starter) before the deadline, even if it required including top prospects to get deals done. Can't keep kicking the can down the road.
  3. Google maps provides an easy way to measure distances. Given the easement for Metra and the public right of way adjacent to Wells, the width of the remaining tract is appx. 500' . In addition, the recent plan that the City provided TIF money for includes an extension of LaSalle St. South to a newly created 14th and 15th Streets connecting Wells and LaSalle. Just not enough room for any stadium let alone a retractable dome in there. Moreover, affordable housing was part of the original plan and might be part of the TIF agreement with the City. In short, the White Sox will not be building a stadium on the 78 tract or pursuing that absurd plan to repurpose the Air Line Bridge. Sorry Related Development and Auchi, not sorry. Everything Hitmen 77 has said about the contingent contract between Ishbia's LLC and Amtrak, a possible acquisition of a portion of the BNSF site, re-routing required rail lines and relocating a rail yard (with a Federally guaranteed loan), seems quite accurate, including the time frame. My only hope is that after considering costs, complexities, politics, time-frame, Ishbia might change his mind - about everything.
  4. Venable has made some questionable in game decisions but he made the right move by calling on Grant Taylor in the 7th.
  5. If the Tigers keep swinging at the change, they are fvked.
  6. The outfielders did not see Mune's HR or Braden's triple so no surprise Schriff waited on those calls.
  7. We are short a decent starting pitcher. This guy is painful to watch. The guy that hit the HR was just waiting on that sh1t change-up.
  8. One too many change-ups. Not sure who was responsible for calling that pitch.
  9. Rogers has a .199 lifetime BA. There were far better catchers available before the trade deadline if Getz was serious about helping this team compete for an AL Central Championship. And of course another starter could have been had. Hold on to those prospects Getz. Maybe they will turn into the likes of the Minor league pitchers we are seeing come up and fail.
  10. A win in game one of this series would be huge. At least we do not have to face Skubal. Imagine Skubal vs the Sox bullpen. Sox need a three run home run and more.
  11. Exactly, as some of us thought would be the case given Davis' struggles in the early innings. In hindsight, given how terrible Davis has been, the only other option would have been to put him on the 10 day. Not sure what they will do with that guy now. What a time for him to blow up. No way he is on the White Sox next season. Getz won't forget this.
  12. Getz needed to trade prospects like Bonemer. He didn't want to. That was his call and he made that known well before the trade deadline.
  13. Could get even uglier against the Tigers and Cubs. They are in a position to bust our balls.
