Worst case scenario, I hope that the hamstring injury as originally diagnosed will not eventually require surgery to repair. The other concern I have is that Teel's aggressive approach to rehab may have only delayed the healing process. My speculation arises because we have been told that Teel would be going to Charlotte for rehab after this series or the other, he is still in the dugout, and that he has experienced some degree of pain when he runs. Some additional clarity would be helpful but I understand that rehabbing a hamstring is not an exact science.

Merk said: "The current rain, which has yet to arrive, is projected to clear the area at 8 p.m. More information as it becomes available." That sounds fair. So by 8 pm at the latest they should know.

Is that your opinion or did you get that from White Sox sources? I want to watch tonight so I was hoping they play. The weather app I have looks like there is a sufficient window of no rain after 7 pm, but I know that doesn't mean much.

Oh I get it. You are so funny cauli.

Yes, I too hate revisionist history about the plight of baseball announcers...such maddening stuff with so much import to society. I don't care about prior baseball announcers. Are we playing tonight of not?

I understand from a Reddit thread I read some time ago that Bennetti apparently enjoys throwing some shade at the White Sox during Tiger broadcasts. As far as I am concerned anyone who disposes of loyalty for money can fvk all the way off.

Was Bennetti fired or did he choose to leave for a better offer from Detroit? And yes, Bennetti likes to eat during broadcasts and it was a bit gross IMO. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=jason+Benneytti+eats+during+broadcast

As a Sox fan though, I am glad Bennetti is gone. The toy shelf, Sox math, eating sloppily during broadcasts...I don't know if he pulls any of that sh1t on NBC. Some fans do not like Schriffin which I understand. However, it appears that he has been trying to correct mistakes and make changes as he learns on the go. Look, he has a tough job following the Hawk, a hall of fame announcer. That and always having to demur to Steve Stone - an odd match in the booth. Look, if we win games, who gives a sh1t.

You make no sense whatsoever. It's argument for argument's sake, at best.

roflmao. Go root for the Cubs.

We area aware that there was a recent "setback" in Teel's rehab and and that he is not ready to go on a rehab assignment. Hard to know what is going on or how much to be concerned about this as WSox fans and Kyle Teel supporters.

Romo did not play well.

We are all waiting for Teel to come back, especially since Quero has taken a step backward this season. Antonacci will eventually start hitting and should hit some home runs. Maybe Getz can work a trade while the Nationals are in town that would unite Acuna with his bro.

Yes, the multitude of Amtrak train tracks running North and South would ostensibly be eliminated after the proposed sale to Ishbia. There are some buildings on and around there but probably workable for Ishbia and Shore Capital. In any event, there will be a lot to work for engineers, architects and designers as well as investors no matter where a potential new stadium is built. I certainly don't profess to have answers, just my own observations. I like how Ishbia would like to orient the stadium and I provided my own concept of how he might achieve his requirements.

Sleepy Harold said: "I found this part interesting here, but lots info in the piece. A possible acquisition on the NE corner of 18th and Canal, which I opined on earlier, may indeed satisfy Justin Ishbia's requirements. The architectural rendering was not realistic in some respects, particularly with respect to the depiction of the RR bridges. For example, the bridge deck is about 23-25 feet above the elevation of the river and maybe 20 feet above grade. in order to accommodate foot traffic, a substantial amount of money and time would be required to demolish the elevated train tracks. Then either stairs plus an elevator (for those with young children , Seniors, those with bad knees, hips or disabilities) or a long ramp would be required on either end to get up to the bridge. That bridge is at the far South end on the proposed Amtrak site and would be of marginal use for Fire fans. Also, building a second stadium on the 78 would remove the surface parking shown in the 78 site plan. Now about the Airline bridge depicted in the rendering. This bridge was designed well....for another purpose in another time. The massive reinforced-concrete counterweights are imposing, quite ugly, but absolutely necessary considering the very large live and dead loads across its span. The bridge was designated as a Chicago landmark in 2007 which I understand, from a historical perspective only. This bridge is not inherently beautiful like other bridges we are familiar with in our country including the suspension bridges near PNC park. It is what it is, an old rusty railroad bridge. Conversely, if a little more land was acquired South to 18th Street and East to Canal (not even including the railroad tracks that bend around near there), there wouldn't be any reason to mess with that bridge. 18th street has its own bridge. Anyway, just my opinions based on my own experience and knowledge about this area over many years.

You may have achieved a monopoly of posts here, but that doesn't make your opinion any more valuable than others, regardless of age. I know a lot of self-absorbed, overconfident, people of all ages, including a lot of blowhards.

To the extent that Mcdougal's reaction can be compared to how hays and Teel reacted to hamstring injuries, perhaps his injury is not as serious. Just from my medically unqualified fan's perspective.

Derek Hill, Tristan Peters, Everson Periera. Acuna is going to hurt somebody with a collision if Venable continues to starts him out there. The Sox have to try to win every game for the fans. No long leash for a bad dog.

100%. It became obvious that Getz made that trade without even knowing whether Aucna was a switch hitter or whether he could ever be a starting CFer in the major league. Tristan Peters and Derek Hill have played well in CF (and have provided some notable offensive moments). OTOH, Acuna has shown the opposite - he has issues judging flyballs, his throws have been wild, and he can't hit , at least not well enough to outweigh his defensive liabilities. And yes, there is no doubt that Getz is in defensive mode on that trade. That and I believe Acuna may be out of options. IMO, if Braden was even close to ready, or if Hays leg injury was rehabbed, Acuna would be a reluctant but well justified DFA. Edited to add - to the extent Ozzie can sway Sox management a bit about a fellow Venezuelan player, maybe his promotion of Acuna matters. Acuna has also bobbled some ground balls and Venable has not used him as in infielder that much, so I don't think that his glove on the infield is worth anything to this team. DFA, and don't look back.

There is nothing wrong with an Owner or Developer to consider the opinions of fans and others. For those old enough to remember, that was NOT part of the process that Reinsdorf and Einhorn employed when they decided on the plan for GRate, including the robin's egg blue seats, white truss work, stucco exterior.... and of course no surrounding entertainment area, no retail, residential or commercial development or anything but parking surrounding the park.

SF18: If the presentation you are referring to is the one that that includes a small depiction of a fan going toward one of the two bridges, yes I have seen that. I have read quite a bit about those bridges, at least enough to have some idea about what a massive project it would be to use those bridges or the area under the elevated tracks there for another purpose. It seemed to me that for many reasons, including some I mentioned earlier, it might make sense to locate the stadium at 18th and Canal, roughly where you have the #2 on your drawing. As far as acquiring another parcel, it's just money.FYI, I put quite a bit of time and thought into this plan before expressing my opinions, including that the old RR bridges are rather unsightly.

You don't know anything more than the rest of us. I was only making a suggestion as someone who has been familiar with that area and knows the White Sox and our fan base for a long time. The bridge idea is more complicated than it appears so I will wait for more information as to how that might work.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Charles_Air_Line_Bridge#/media/File:St._Charles_Air_Line_Bridge_May-2022.jpg Not sure who posted an AI image with Sox fans walking across that ugly bridge - basically a bridge to nowhere. A more sensible option would be to locate a proposed stadium at 18th and Canal adjacent to the Schoenhofen Brewery Historic District (outlined in blue) and avoid needing the bridge infrastructure or the 78 entirely. There is no neighborhood connected to the 78 a vacant difficult to access lot for over 100 years. Conversely, a proposed 18th and Canal location would integrate with the lively arts and crafts Pilsen neighborhood and of course Chicago's Chinatown - South side neighborhoods that have been part of the diverse fabric of the South side for generations.

I'm still a glass half full kind of guy, but it's cold beer and going down fast so hurry up and turn this season around. Sox really need Teel back in the line-up and Antonacci to start hitting. And my pet peeve here - please sit Acuna in favor of Derek Hill in CF.

I understand the idea that the investors at Shore have about building a ballpark on the area that remains on the 78 while providing parking for fans on the East side of the river so fans could walk over the Airline bridge to get to the 78. I have walked over Michigan avenue bridge and other bascule bridges in Chicago hundreds of times but none of those with the big exposed counterweight. IMO, I just don't see that plan making any sense whatsoever (practically, financially, aesthetically or otherwise), but I will defer to others who may have more knowledge and experience in these matters than I do and, of course, to the only person whose opinions really matter. Hate to see this happening after all my years as a White Sox fan. What Bulshit.
