Giolito's wife files for divorce
I never heard anybody complaining when Giolito got good press for doing some charitable work. Where was the privacy crowd when the news was good news?

Giolito's wife files for divorce
But it’s not in a vacuum. It’s not an outlier. You have to pretend not to see things to pretend things aren’t messed up with everyone associated with this franchise.

Sox Draft 2023
With Getz’s minor league system destined to destroy any draftee I would just be happy with anyone who can learn the coaches names.

And that's an apathetic fanbase White Sox winner!
I don’t sense any depression from someone living in the town of Realville.

This. I would get no joy out of the smack down this unlikeable bunch of clowns would get if they ever sniffed the post season.

7/7: Cards @ Sox
I’ve been saying that since that ten game losing streak. They have reached fun bad. Finding new exciting ways to lose. It’s hilarious.

I’m sorry your parents died but that was the best LOL moment in a while.

This team is going to lose 90 plus games...
Agreed. 90 seems about right but I could see as high as 95.

Fire Rick Hahn
It seems that their modern day floor is about 1.6 million, which they are pretty close to (slightly above) right now. I don’t think they drop off more next year. I can’t see 1.4 or lower which would be a 25 year low. It would be laughably fun to see.

Yep still standing by it…

AL Central Records since Apr 29
79 wins would be 42-31 from here on out. When was the last time this team had a stretch playing 11 games over .500? Early 2021?
-
AL Central Records since Apr 29
They would have to go 40-33 from this point to win 77. I still think 90 losses is more likely.

7/6- White Sox vs Blue Jays, Gm 1, 4:10
You’re not wrong but you must be too young to remember Bevington.

Now is the time to trade Lynn. He’s peaking. Don’t hang on to him for too long.

GQ: Tim Anderson Is Tired of Being the Most Misunderstood Man in Baseball
You’re right. I thought almost everyone had at least some fake humility. Heck, even Ja Morant could fake it a little bit. I can’t figure out why people don’t like this guy.

GQ: Tim Anderson Is Tired of Being the Most Misunderstood Man in Baseball
Isn’t it obvious that people are willing to overlook your enormous character flaws when you’re playing well? When you suck, add humility and decency to your repertoire.

GQ: Tim Anderson Is Tired of Being the Most Misunderstood Man in Baseball
I know there was one administrator here that attacked a lot of people when they failed to admire Anderson. He’s been silent for a while.

Bullpen management
Part of this is on the starters. It seems only Giolito and Lynn are capable of going six or seven innings. I just checked baseball reference and it’s been a month since Kopech pitched more than five innings. Hey Michael - why don’t you flip off the bullpen every time you take the ball. Hes gone seven innings in three of 15 starts. Cease has not gone past six innings (6.1 once, there’s that) and has only done that in seven of 16 starts. Eventually the bullpen will get worn down. (Admittedly I don’t know if every team has starters pitching like this or if the Sox are an outlier.)

A Salute to Luis Robert, the all star
If he could work on getting to know the coaches names during the All Star break that would be even better.

7/4 Gamethread (Giolito vs. Bassitt)
They nearly got swept by the worst team in MLB history.

Well Oakland started one guy with a 7.79 ERA and another who is a career 5 ERA guy.

7/2 Gamethread - TBD vs. Blackburn
Nobody is giving them any three guys for this bum.

7/2 Roster Moves (Not the one everyone knows we need)
The one guy that can be counted on will be traded soon or leave via free agency at the end of the season.
