  1. Getz should have traded Bonemer. He probably has no place on the roster next year, especially if Roch comes up.
  2. They have 6 outs to get a run. We have 3 . Not great odds for a win tonight. I'm heading out for a while. Good luck.
  3. I wouldn't mind seeing some altercations on the field and maybe in the stands as well. Fight, fight. fight.
  4. What will a Cub sweep do to the Sox and their fan base at this point of the season? My nuts are busted after one loss to the Northsiders.
  5. Rogers is the worst option the Sox have at catcher. I would rather have Romo or Quero or Teel on one leg. Some of the swings Rogers had were laughable....like he was swinging blind-folded.
  6. Too many automatic outs in the Sox line-up lately and Rogers and Doyle added to that list.
  7. I sense a sweep because of the pitching match-ups.
  8. Keep the young starting position players we have until another player demonstrates that they are better. Doyle is an example of a player Getz acquired after panicking about Peters slump....but he may not be as good as Peters, even in a platoon role. The Sox have several young position players that are learning the game at the same time. This is a special team, one that we have never seen on the South side before.
  9. I am fine with the starting line-up and hope Getz keeps these guys together for a few years.
  10. After numerous demotions of Quero to the minors to "get some at-bats and work on things," I now wonder whether there was/is more to it. Consider that the Sox are in the final weeks of a pennant race during which time Getz acquired two veteran catchers and kept Romo as the back-up. Anyway, I am just hoping to see Teel back before the end of the season.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. Venable has made some questionable in game decisions but he made the right move by calling on Grant Taylor in the 7th.
