White Sox are not an MLB organization.  They're Bush League.

Need to clean up house both on FO and on the field coaching, and very soon or this season is over.  No more bad managing, over resting, lack of coaching, no sense of urgency, geriatric organization, etc.

    That's just it.  I see an entire team under-performing, and giving some of the worst defensive production I have ever seen from a team with World Series aspirations, under a manager who was supposed t

No accountability whatsoever. Just excuses and more excuses.

At this rate I wouldn’t be shocked if these losers finish below .500

Fuuuuuuuuuck, this is fun!  Can’t wait for tomorrow!

Show and go tomorrow, I’m sure. Nobody needs batting practice. 

They rushed Vaughn to the big leagues because this was supposed to be their "window."  In doing so, they forced him to play out of position and deprived him of normal development time in the minors, as well as starting his service time clock extra early.  And this is the result?  This organization can't do anything right.

Nice shot of Eloy laughing and fucking off in the dugout, probably doesn’t even know the games over

Yep, rather they trade him for equal young talent if they’re just going to keep him in LF.

People lost their minds on here the last 2 years when I'd say it might be good for Vaughn's development to spend some time in AAA

The Sox were more fun in Spring training watching Cespedes and Adolfo hit HR's. I think the minor leaguers in ST may have out homered the regulars.

The team doesn’t care. They are just their to collect a paycheck and that’s it.

It seems as if the plan is for Vaughn to takeover for Abreu at the end of this season... but nothing with the Sox ever makes sense, and if Jose wants to keep playing, I'm sure Jerry will make sure it's with the Sox.

What else you want him to do? Team is playing like shit. Probably as bored watching this as we are. Gotta entertain himself somehow.

I know that feeling all too well when I said Vaughn was way too slow to be an OF last year during the season yet all off season tons of people were saying he could play LF regularly.

I hear ya, but Hahn is incapable of trading Vaughn for equal talent.  Sox would get hosed. Just put him at 1B and let Abreu platoon with Sheets at DH.

To be fair, he wasn’t awful out there last year.  This season, good lord.

There is a reason players don't go from High-A to the majors or college 1st basemen don't become outfielders for the 1st time at the big league level

Burr is not a MLB caliber pitcher, suitable at best for mop up duty one step ahead of a position player pitching.  He should be sent down tonight to Charlotte on a Greyhound one way  Ticket along with Banks, so TLR cannot bringing them in relief again..

So, if this continues, how impossible is a Giolito for Cartaya trade?

He is better than Sheets fullstop, and better than Eloy because he's less of a risk to injure himself or the players around him. It still doesn't make him an outfielder. Obviously. It's just a poorly constructed roster in every conceivable way.

booooooooo you stop this

You would think if the Sox lose tomorrow there’s got to be some changes coming right?

And bring up whom to replace him?  These are the worst relievers in the Sox pen - they're SUPPOSED to be bad.  Its just that when literally every game is this tight, you have to pitch them eventually.

Ide love for him to work on his conditioning so he’s not a big oaf whose constantly injured. Giving a shit would also be nice.

Indeed.

But  young player for young player trade isn't what this front office does.  (at least since Hahn's first rebuild).
