If the Sox trade for Juan Soto we have a chance.
This is KW testing the waters for our reaction. Not falling for that, Kenny! Get back to work.

If Big Sexy's Ass Scope Procedure says it's true, then it must be true.

Eloy is still hurt, TLR still putting him in LF
The Sox simply cannot go into next season with Eloy, Vaughn, and Abreu all on the roster. Someone has to go. Then you have to figure out what to do with the other 3 DHs: Grandal, Sheets, Burger. In my opinion, ship out Burger and Sheets for whatever you can get in return. Let Grandal remain at catcher while playing a lot of games at 1st, DH, and bench. Roster needs a complete shakeup to add more defense and flexibility. Roster malpractice from Hahn if they bring these guys back.

**Movies that we Watch** Thread
Watched "The Black Phone". Pretty good, not great. Worth seeing if you like Stephen King type stories. It's based off of a story written by his son. Anyone seen "Nope" yet? Heard mixed things but mostly positive.

Predict the Next 19 Games
If the Sox are ever going to make a run, the time is now. They're as healthy as they will be all season and the schedule is weak. They could really use a huge run like 14-5 or 15-4, as they haven't had an extended run like that all season. I'll predict 12-7.

The White Sox can't afford to have Eloy Jimenez and Yasmani Grandal crap the bed if/when they return
The Sox have so many veterans who have been completely useless. Guys who have good to great career track records, but are amongst the worst players in all of MLB in 2022. Off the top of my head: Jimenez Grandal Moncada Pollock Lynn Bummer A little unfair to include Bummer as his numbers don't put him amongst the worst in baseball but his availability has been the issue. Giolito has also been disappointing but not to the extent of the guys mentioned above. It's highly unlikely all 6 of these guys turn it around in the 2nd half but if the Sox are going to make any sort of deep run, they need probably at least 4 of them to get it together. Amongst the position players that I mentioned, here's how I'd rank the likelihood that they have a bounce back 2nd half and return to form: Grandal Moncada Jimenez Pollock I still like Grandal and am optimistic that he will be good if his body feels good. Moncada has shown some flashes lately and seems to be making progress. I still like Eloy's bat better than Moncada but I need to see him in the lineup consistently before I have any faith in his ability to return to form. Pollock looks like toast but still holding on to a glimmer of hope he goes on a tear for a month or so.

2022 MLB catch all thread
This probably happens a lot, we just don't have high-resolution slow-mo cameras to pick it up every time. But still pretty cool to see.

Would you let them watch movies on their iPads?

The contract extension for Soto does not play in to the trade package.

JR: No comment on TLR job security
JR and TLR are probably working on the contract extension as we speak. KW and RH will be informed after the ink is dry. Extend Tony.
