LittleHurt05 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I still like Deadspin and actually find this funny, but it appears that Deadspin is straight trolling the White Sox for some reason right now. I don't know who Tim Marchman is, but it seems to be his mission.

BlackSox13 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I really don't see the writer as trolling the Sox. He's just bluntly telling it like it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenksycat Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 15, 2017 -> 09:04 PM) Tim is actually a pretty hardcore Sox fan. However, not really sure what the angle is here with Deadspin. Trolling, joking, etc. "Seriously" covering stories about this s*** show of a franchise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 deadspin has been up and down since Leitch left, it's OK now imo. That said, this is poking fun, not trolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokona Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Marchman heavily criticized the idea of trading Sale and Eaton. He's just butz hurt about the team being perpetually adrift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This direction is what I wanted but it's not complete yet so they can still mess it up. If Q/Robo/Frazier/Melky/Any scrap-heap reclamation/ are still on the team in August 2017 the franchise is still a joke and will be until JR no longer runs the show. No more half in half out bulls***, either blow the whole thing up and rebuild or have a $250m payroll and go for it. Either way just pick a side.

mmmmmbeeer Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Marchman is hilarious and I hope he keeps this up all season. I've followed him both on Deadspin and Twitter for a good while...he's definitely a hardcore Sox fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Mar 16, 2017 -> 03:09 PM) This is what everyone wanted. Not me. I don't trust draft picks. I prefer the spend, spend, spend method to go with a few homegrown talents. Sox deserve to be mocked by deadspin all season. This team is built to lose and lose big. BTW if Robertson has a few good outings and they are serious about a rebuild, they should dump him ASAP for prospects to somebody desperate for relievers, cough cough the Royals. Ditto Q. He had a decent performance last game. Trade him now to somebody desperate for a starter if you are serious about a rebuild. No need to wait.
