Jimenez doesn’t want to DH until mid 30’s
He was fine in the field the last 3 months. Lots of people struggle in a new job at first.

Trade Candidates: SP
Don't waste resources via trade. Free agency is better if a team is smart enough. Oh wait, did I just say that?

Predict the Market: FA Contracts
I do.

A Realistic Offseason
I'd be OK with Wheeler, Hamels and Avi.

Rangers might trade lefthanded hitter/outfielder
Avi Garcia won't cost a thing but a few dollars. The thing I see on this board most are clowns who say average players are terrible. Avi is a league average right fielder. He also won't cost you prospects or Major league talent. Give him 1 year with an option and then focus on pitching. Cole Hamels and Zach Wheeler would make us an above average team to start next year.

Edwin Encarnacion - DH
do any FA's available really mash RHP? I'd roll the dice on Zack Collins for LH DH if we had a guy who could handle lefties.

Hawk Harrelson wins the Ford C. Frick Award
The question was about Hawk being in the HOF. The guy was a mediocre homer who would sit in the booth and kiss JR's ass. The best thing about him being gone is I'll never have to hear about Carl Yaztremski anymore.

Agreed

Hawk Harrelson wins the Ford C. Frick Award
No offense intended, but the Sox let Harry go in his prime to bring Drysdale and Hawk in. Neither one was in Harry's league.

One mans opinion. He was as good an announcer as he was a GM.

Tonight's game showed why Abreu can't be our 1st baseman
Vaughn already is a solid defensive 1B. He'll be the starter there by 2021. Give Collins 60-70 starts at 1B in 2020. See if he can play there as a solid back up. An awful lot of things will have to go right to compete in 2020. 2021 we could be a World Series contender.

Cole or Strasburg?
As for the original question. I'd take Strasberg. But this being the White Sox, I'd settle for Zack Wheeler.

Possible inside ticket scam

White Sox listed as interested in Marcel Ozuna by Dominican Reporter
He would be a big improvement over what we have now. With Eloy and Robert handling the other 2 spots, we wouldn't have any more black holes in the outfield. The fact that he'll be relatively cheap compared to other OF's leaves more $ to spend on Pitching.

A Realistic Offseason
Not right now it doesn't. I would hope our scouts know more than we do who has a better chance at a bounce back season. Of course this is the White Sox we're talking about, so maybe not. If I could do one thing for this organization, I'd steal every scout the Rays have.

A Realistic Offseason
I thinks it's pining. It doesn't really matter which name you use. Just a rehab guy who knows how to pitch. A large dose of HGH wouldn't hurt either.

A Realistic Offseason
Cole Hamels, Avisail and either Edison Volquez or Alex Wood.

Disco Demolition Review...
I was there that night. 1 of about 8-9 teenagers who didn't go on the field. Actually it was a little scary at the time.

If Sox fans crowd funded a billboard on the Dan Ryan, what would the message be?
Dear Gerrit, How do I love thee.....

Would you trade for Mookie Betts, and what would you trade
Pass on him altogether. We need pitching more than Betts.

State of Chicago baseball: the tipping point
Too early I think. Next September is my guess for White Sox superiority. With 1 full years experience for Cease,Kopech Madrigal,Robert and Collins. Sox could be dominant for 5-10 years. Although we will never be as popular as the Cubs, a world series win will more than make up for it. One more thing. I've always kind of liked being the runt of the litter, so to speak. It makes winning a little sweeter.

Who would still want Maddon?
I say Ozzie only half in jest. He was an excellent manager at first. But tell him he's got to leave his kids at home.

Ozzie.

2020 RF options
Not to be negative, but do the same list with the Astros team.Yikes!! I sure hope they lose Gerritt Cole this winter. Plus, Verlander and Greinke are getting old. With that line up and defense tho, they could probably win 95 games with our pitchers.
