  1. It;s cloudin' up fast out here in the boonies. Are they going to have to dodge rain drops tonight?
  2. It might just end up that way but....if somehow MLB navigates through the pandemic without major delays, most of us will feel pretty good about watching competitive baseball during the final week of the season and the playoffs....especially if the good guys are still in it.
  3. It was cool to see Dick Allen Tweet Stone during the game !
  4. In the past few games Robert looked like he could not recognize spin and location early enough to make contact. Pitchers are getting him out too easy on sinkers away and high fastballs....almost all thrown out of the strike zone.
  5. Ozzie could tone down and work his way back into good stead with Sox management, but he doesn't know how to act.
  6. Rahimi was OK but my favorite female sports reporter for the White Sox was Sarah Kustok.
  7. Dude has too big of a swing to be a contact hitter.
  8. tray replied to soxfan49's topic in Pale Hose Talk
  9. We need to have a Manager that can communicate with players in English and Spanish. Renteria's job is safe because I can't think of anyone other than Ozzie that would fit. If it was me, I'd give Ozzie the job. After all, pro sports is is an entertainment business.
  10. It is possible that after Grandal got the big contract his head got too big. Yea get rid of McCann and keep this jerk.
  11. Omar looks like he put on a few pounds and he is not going to hit many home runs. . Pina is 33 and has limited power. No, they could use a young LH hitting catching prospect with power We could too, if the Sox didn't sign Grandal.
  12. Bauer is a great pitcher but I don't like his cocky attitude on the mound. I guess that sounds like Ozzie not liking Swisher but it is what it is.
  13. I don't get how Vaughn fits in on the roster, at least for the next few years, especially if Eloy is at DH and Abreu is at First. Admittedly this is my own first impression, but to me Vaughn looks so awkward defensively taking throws from the left side of the infield. He doesn't have the height to reach high throws or the flexibility to catch throws that are off the mark. His lack of speed is pretty surprising for his age. I don't know, maybe Eloy will stay in Left long term and Vaughn can DH. I certainly do not see him replacing Abreu at first base for the next few years.
  14. Glass half full with hitting and half empty or more with pitching. I liked a few of Milwaukee's pitchers during the 4 game series. I would trade Collins for Peralta if they would do it. They seem like they could spare one of them.
  15. Head first slides should not be allowed by the Sox. Imagine losing Robert for a year again because of a stupid head first slide. There is too much force/momentum to stop on a dime when you go in head first. A feet first slide allows your ass to hit and absorb the energy of the slide, not your chest and worse, your shoulder. So we have to hold our Breath every time Robert steals knowing the oven mitt won't prevent a jambed shoulder or elbow,
  16. I had RF reserved next year for Oscar Colas.
  17. That nickname seems like an effort to sanitize "Luis" of its Hispanic character and even make it sound a bit Southern. Might as well call Jose Abreu - JoBrew . Sweet Home Alabama... I'm going to stick with Luis Robert and his nickname, La Pantera
  18. Very good comparison Cauli. I would just add a few more arrows >>>> for Nelson Cruz over EE, and that has been one of the few disappointments thus far.,
  19. We used to be able to skip the Home half inning to catch a bite or do something when the middle and bottom of our Order was due up. Now, you don't want to miss anything because there is a good a chance to see hits, home runs and scoring in every inning. That must be absolutely dreadful for opposing pitchers. The other thing is that our hitters are being patient at the plate. They aren't just hitting home runs but are covering the plate when there is two strikes on them and getting clutch hits. It's really been a pleasure to watch so far. Not much to not like about our 2020 White Sox.
  20. Madrigal is more valuable to a team that doesn't need power from its second basemen. That's the Sox right now. We are loaded with power up and down the line-up. Mazara is another guy that is going to hit 20+ bombs every year.
