Greg Gumbel R.I.P....
RIP Greg. I remember watching him on channel 5 as a kid. Really good at what he did.

White Sox asking for "top prospects" for Robert
Trade this turkey ASAP. The last link to a disastrous past. One top 100 and a young lottery ticket. I hate being harsh about Luis because he's not really an a#$hole. But that ship has sailed and the quicker we get to 2026 the better.

CHGO layoffs...
My son is friends with Vinnie. I met him last year up in Michigan on vacation. Nice, smart young man. Sorry to hear about his misfortune.

Sox Trade Cash to Cubs for Matt Thaiss
That's pretty funny. Like JR would ever give someone a bonus.

Vlad Jr turns down $340 mil
Take the cash Vlad. Every athlete is one injury away from disaster.

White Sox Top 10 Prospects (BA)
Kinda weird the Sox are deep at 2B and catcher. Don't remember the last time it happened. If new Monty or King George pan out in right, we'll hit the trifecta at our 3 worst spots.

Crochet Traded to Boston
At least one of those guys is from this century. LOL

Crochet Traded to Boston
Monty hit .340 in college with a good amount of walks. Is that good? What did AVaughn do?

Crochet Traded to Boston
Meidroth and Sosa are exact opposites.

Rule 5 Draft
Smith's numbers look really promising. Unless he gets hit by a bus, he'll have a chance to make it thru the season in the bigs. Well, our version of the bigs.

Crochet Traded to Boston
I was surprised in the worst way possible when I saw Madrigal running hard to 1st base the first time. Anyone judging his ability should have seen that. Overlooking it should get a scout fired.
-
Crochet Traded to Boston
only caution sign is they are a bit older. my own feeling is, if you're 23 and haven't reached the bigs, you won't be a star....ever. (mike schmidt exception duly noted). Giving up an elite talent for several good prospects sounds like a chris getz move.

Dick Allen, Tommy John up for HOF Consideration
Abreu might be a HOF member someday. Losing half of his career in Cuba wasn't his fault. voting members sometimes overlook stuff like that.

Winter Meetings Catch-all
Hitting the nail on the head. And in 25 words or less.

Juan Soto to Mets. 15 years/765m
If I remember correctly, the Sox made Dick Allen the highest paid player in baseball in 1972. 3 years at 235,000 a year.
-
Dick Allen HOF
I idolized him as a 10 year old. Also think he had the best season any Sox player ever had

Bill Melton Passes Away
my brothers and I were watching on tv when Bill hit his 30th on Sept 21, 1970. the first White Sox to reach the hallowed milestone. we all wish his family the best during this emotional time.

Manfred: mlb considering “Golden at bat” rule
They could make every AB the Sox get a "golden" next year. We still couldn't win 70 games.
-
would austin hays play here?
Could he be talked into playing on the south side? A very useful player to a better team. He and Beni could form a platoon.
-
Andrew Benintendi on the trade market (duh)
just let beni & robert stay and play til june. we don't have anyone to replace them any way.

Non-Tender Day
I thought to myself you could sub me for Taylor St. Sox and it would still work. Except it'd have to be 5 beers.

Should Sox pursue Carson Kelly
He's a free agent and a fine defender. He is a league average hitter for a catcher and has never been labeled a jackass. Price range 2-3 million per x 2 years. Quiero won"t be taking over for a year or so. He's better than Corey if 2024 is that's all CL will hit. Seems like a guy who could be a good coach later on.
