Rick Hahn cannot evaluate talent.

I believe this to be true. I'm not sure he ever gets another job.

Alonso might only be hitting .148, but he's great in the clubhouse. Has these guys really playing well.

A real glue guy. Knows when to have fun but knows when to turn it off. Has some grit to his game. Leader.

Eloy is gonna go yard today. 

Rick Hahn has been a GM for now his 7th season. His teams have finished at least 15 games out of first every season. For those of you who thought he was a baseball genius, the joke is on you.

Eloy hit that hard. You can tell he's looking for a breaking ball there.

To be fair, he is the Gar to Kenny's Paxon, and i have a minor feeling that KW makes most of the decisions. It just feels like the organizational structure is the same as the Bulls.

He doesnt need another job, he has lifetime job security

Sox have no pitching

If by lifetime you mean that with regard to Uncle Jerry, sure.

I've said this for years and it's designed intentionally to make pinning blame impossible for fans.

If that was the case, unlike Gar who probably couldn't get another NBA job unless it was guarding the locker room door, Hahn has at least had other opportunities to pursue, which he passed. So if KW rules and he is just a yes man, he deserves all the criticism anyway.

Yes exactly.

Agreed

No team - i guarantee - will have gotten less WAR for their dollars than the 2018-19 white sox acquisitions.

This team still has so many holes to fill. They have absolute black holes at Catcher, Second Base, Center Field, DH, and Right Field. They have one somewhat reliable guy in the starting rotation. The only reliable guys in the bullpen are veterans like Colome and Herrera.

Other than Sale and Q we havent for a while. Cooper is lucky he had those two, he gets way too much slack here

Also, they absolutely should be putting Colome and Herrera on the market. With so many contending teams having huge reliever issues, now is the time to maximize their value.

My god some people just refuse to blame Hahn

Santana is throwing BP up there 

Key thing to watch with Santana is the slider. It's been bad so far. His entire career, he's gotten by with a mix of just-okay fastball and just-okay changeup and an elite slider. Much like Rodon, he may be able to pitch over reduced velocity — at least well enough to stick around in this rotation — but only if he's throwing his slider well

Haha Engel would've had fun trying to rob guys.

Leury is just bouncing off walls.

Nice. Another home run, and caught by some dickhead in a Cubs jersey. 

Home run hitting contest today for the Rays.

I blame both of them, but I blame Hahn more for not resigning because he's a puppet. 

Anyone from the minors could pitch this poorly.. why waste $$$ on this clown

Santana would break the HR allowed record if he lasted whole season. When you allow a lot of homers pitching in Minnesota, you probably won’t enjoy GRF.
