I always think it is incredibly groovy when the Sox finish with a better reckit than the Cubs.

WOOHOO!!!

PROUD OF MY WHITE SOX!!!!

These lucky White Sox fans have never experienced the indignity of the White Sox having the same or less winning seasons than the Cubs at any point of their life.

Only 4 game sample size but after 2 HR's and a double today Colas' line is .389, .421, .778, 1.199

You're not in a multi-championship window if you are not fielding the best major league capable players in your organization. Few in baseball would not consider Colas major league capable at this stage.

Would have been a big lift to both Colas personally and the team as a whole if they brought up Colas and put Robert on the IL during their West Coast hot streak in early September.

Would have shown ownership and the FO backed their players, coaching staff, interim manager and organization. Understood their stance not throwing more money after bad at the deadline, but this move was a no brainer considering what they were (and still are) throwing out there to play OF, Robert's injury, and the Sox being within a couple games of winning the division prior to the Cleveland series.

If they brought Colas up when Robert first was dizzy in mid July, and played him as much as they play Pollock, he'd likely be leading the Sox in home runs at this point.

I don't know about that but I'm pretty sure his and my soul would be doing alot better.

Keep losing baby. Work that draft pick.

Doubt that even matters all that much in baseball. 16th pick ,14th pick whatever. I'm sure there will be successes after the Sox pick and busts before it.

A quick look at some of the AL guys in the All Star game this year  , Judge was the 32nd pick in the 1st round, Trout was 25th pick in 1st round, Corey Seager 18th pick 1st round. Ty France 34th round, Jose Trevino 6th round, Santiago Espinal 10th round. TA was 17th pick ,1st round and many many players were Int'l signees. How many Int'l draft picks have the Sox signed that might possibly make an AS Team Robert, Abreu,  but none of those guys were 16 yrs old when signed like Guerrero, Devers and Altuve who the Astros had turned away from their Venezuelan Academy twice before they signed him for $15,000.

I bring up the 16 yr. olds because this is an area Reinsdorf has stuck his control into also. They don't want to sign 16 year olds plus JR liked to trade his Int'l draft money away on probably around 5 different occasions. They did sign Tatis, Jr. at 16 but traded him when he was 17 before he even played a game for them. JR was probably pissed they gave him $700K .

Some of the Sox top picks going back to KW were really bad at baseball.  The biggest problem with the organization is scouting.  While new ownership would likely be the answer but anyone in ownership would have to be willing to gut the organization.  I would not think that is any easy task.  Loyalty over performance is the White Sox.  They also created a fan base that believes in hiring former players.
