We're in agreement here but they'll all be back. I'd be shocked if anyone got fired. 

I really have a hard time blaming the coaches or the manager

If Moncada ends up at 800ish ops and Giolito at 3.75-4.00 ERA, they only have Robert, Madrigal, Collins and Kopech left to promote from a PR standpoint...or the human interest story of whether Burger can make it to the big leagues (although not exactly a huge hurdle in this organization.)

Looks like another offseason of MEH.

lol

How do you come up with this stuff? ?

Yeah I'm with you German Sox.

Look at the win gap. Sox are better than KC by a lot. Seattle is closer than I thought. 

Sox not far ahead of KC by the run gap; and well behind Seattle.

Plus, look at the 2nd half. This team got decidedly worse.

I have a really easy time blaming them. You can tell by watching the games. 

Clicking on all cylinders

They should move Moncada to 1B.  

Puig and Reyes would look good in White Sox uniforms.  They don't seem to be nice guys but maybe we need some of that edge.

I don’t think Puig is a bad guy at all. Do I want him on the Sox? Hell no.

Omg Capra sucks. Moncada is really fast and he was dead to rights on that one.

The rebuild is crumbling down the stretch.

Soon to be a season low 17 games below .500, but we'll be competing for a playoff spot next season.  No problem.

Reyes was the most popular player in the Padres’ organization.  If anything, he’s too nice.

Check out his karaoke/singing clips at YouTube.

Not a smart player. He’d be an upgrade, obviously, but I’m just not a fan of some of the stupid stuff he does.

Good to know.  We certainly have enough brain f**t players with Garcia and Anderson.

Even Jimenez is in the bottom ten out of about 60 qualified hitters under age 26 for OPS, which doesn’t even take his defense into account.

I guess the response will be Vladimir Jr. is only about 50 points higher and was more hyped.

If you would please tell me for my own curiosity who if anyone do you have a problem with in the White Sox organization if not the coaches or manager?

Their approach at the plate and on the mound is antiquated and I blame coaching. Capra sucks and gives away outs at the plate. Renteria as about as bad of an in-game tactician as I've ever seen. Only Bevington takes the cake. 

That being said, Eloy has struggled this year but I think a big part of it is being in and out of the lineup with injuries.

Chuck Tanner was a good manager.  His teams seemed were well coached and ready to play.  Ozzie was good until his kids got involved...than he became unbearable.

Jose tied for the league lead in rbis now.

Fulmer needs a change of scenery. He’s finished here.

I can't believe that ball went out.

Didn’t see it, but I believe you. This season has been horseshit.
