brijames1957 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Can we discuss what is of real importance tonight please. Will Eloy go with the pink or red ensemble tonight? And will Moncada go with the yellow or pink shoes? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Los will end up extending if he and Ashley like it there, but Atlanta, Washington and Baltimore are much closer to home base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen a team in my life activate as many guys off the IL who don't play that day. So odd. So they play a guy short. Again. That is part of TLR ball. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could’nt he monetize some of that equity to improve the team? $19M 1981 dollars is about $62M in today's dollars. The White Sox are worth $1.76B - so, yeah, I'd say he's made enough to get a star player or two. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rarely play with energy. They play like a 77 year old ballplayer who has little energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more excited to see if there are are more Steve or Jason fan club shirts in the stands tonight. On second thought, just let me know instead. Watching GOTG instead of the game.

hankchifan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Today, at the end of the trade deadline the rich got richer in talent, the poor got poorer, and the middle class like the Sox stayed pat. There will never be parity in baseball without a salary cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I don’t even know what to say at this point honestly… Running out Vaughn or Sheets in right field is so deplorable. ”If you’re a White Sox fan and you think we need help in right field then I say you’re not really a fan…” Tony LaRussa. Ok Buddy. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so someone says it, there is an entire industry happy to provide tools to turn equity in a business into liquid funds, particularly if it was on an investment that would have a good chance of increasing revenue or business value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
