Unfortunately, there are a lot of bigots and haters that post on these message boards. I'll just scroll on by this one.

I wonder if Trump waits until Tuesday night before Pardon Palooza. Maybe he will announce the Pardons at his farewell address on the tarmack hours before Biden is sworn in. This guy is going to Pardon his family, Kyle Rittenhouse, the guy that had horns on at the Jan 6 rally, Kushner Jr., Rudy Guiliani, and any other Trump loyalist who is or might be subject to criminal prosecution. And yes, he will Pardon the biggest crook of all, himself. Then he will have a leave the WH using tax payer funds to fly him down to Florida . Of course with the return flight of AF One after he is out of Office will be on us as well. The Senate has to try Trump for high crimes. Conduct Discovery, call witnesses, and get a Conviction.

I like ReyLo's durability and the speed on his fastball. He might be a tweak or two away from being a very good starter.

Racial intolerance is the new racism. That supercharged Trump's political power with loyal support from white supremacists like those who marched in Charlottesville and those who stormed the Capitol. But racial intolerance is not only found at the fringe. Mainstream Republican ideology dovetails with racial intolerance in many ways - segregation, refusal to acknowledge the impact of generations of slavery, discrimination, unequal policing and justice There can be no compromise with bigotry and racism. They have to be defeated. That didn't happen after the Civil War and probably won't happen for several more generations. So forget the notion that there will ever be unity between Trumpublicans and Democrats. Not gonna happen.

The team is not built for a final hurrah. The Sox are in good shape for many years to come. Sox fans are excited. No amount of talent will guarantee a championship. They can stand pat as far as additional trades or acquisitions and I will be happy.

Assuming arguendo that Bauer is not signed by the Sox, then why not wait until Spring Training to see what the potential 3,4,5 pitchers on our roster have? Maybe our staff does not need another back of rotation question mark.

This move makes it clear that Crochet and Kopech will be given every opportunity to become starting pitchers. The Sox could use some depth in case of injury at a few positions including catcher, Otherwise, all fired up, ready to go.

I heard tRump put funny nose glasses on and took a pic for a new Twitter account under the name "John Baron,"

God forbid it is was black Muslims..Shoot to kill, right?

and you don't get the point.

Capital Hill, Seattle... LOL.

I didn't see one Trumper who breached the Capitol building and grounds get beaten with a billy club or get shot like a dog. Most of the cops are Trumpers themselves you know.. As many commentators have opined, if BLM tried to storm the Capitol in a similar fashion, there would be carnage. Meanwhile, Trump should resign or be removed by Impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Pence has to break ranks or go down in flames with this himself.

Our eight starting position players might be one of the best in White Sox history. This is an awesome team from top to bottom. They are going to destroy a lot of pitchers. Can't wait for Spring Training.

Madrigal is a perfect compliment to this White Sox line-up. He waits for strikes, then invariably puts the ball in play instead of whiffing. Then the power hitters come up and drive him in - classic bloop and a blast baseball where Madrigal is the bloop. Nelson Fox who had a lifetime .288 batting average and averaged 2HR per year. I think Madrigal can become what Nellie was in all aspects of the game. Madrigal is a keeper. There is zero chance that he gets traded any time soon. The 2021 W Sox have a beautiful mix of power, speed, and smart contact hitting salted with a bit of of bravado. Madrigal is part of a core that will make a run for the championship for the next few seasons.

Personal family stuff that is probably a bad idea to comment on.

Understood. Thank you,

Why not wait for the trading deadline to add a Closer?

Trump's criminal Intent was as clear as light. He threatened the Ga. SOS by telling him that he would be committing a crime if he didn't follow his plan to find votes .....and then Trump stated that he was putting him on Notice. That was egregious.. Trump put the arm on him like he was a mafia boss.

It is time to stop trading young prospects for guys that are 30+ years old, or the Sox will become the 2021 Cubs needing to rebuild more quickly than anticipated.

I would rather trade Keuchel than Kopech , but full disclosure, I can't stand Keuchel.

The need for depth at Catcher might have more to do with the lack of confidence in Yermin and Zavala . The Sox may need a catcher to step in in the event Grandal gets injured or Collins' performance is unacceptable.

Stats don't tell the whole story about these players. There is a lot more to player and trade evaluation, as you know. If Darvish goes on the DL for an extended time or has another year like he had in 2018, Ricketts and Hoyer will feel vindicated for that trade, even though they may have gotten zilcho (other than debt relief) in return. You just never know but age is something that is always major factor for major league players. Of course, I am one that did not like trading Dunning . It is not that I did not want starting pitching depth. Rather, I just didn't want to trade Dunning to get it.

Hang in there G man and stay strong.

Darvish is 34 years old and has about 59 Million left on his contract. He is no different then other pitchers that are injury prone except he is older and more expensive than most. So I would not want him for that price. Neither did Ricketts.
