Well, I think she informed us of the investigation, not the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might say more about Clevinger taking a deal as soon as he could. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony and his friendship with Jerry is one thing. Probably true, but I can't help but feel like someone messed up by not doing due diligence. They really burned us with TLR and it's really hard to take their statements in good faith. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, but inaction moving forward will look really bad. Well there is about 12 million reasons why you're going to see inaction in the short term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an excuse its fact. I've seen people lie for various reasons and to their own personal ends. There are no police reports, her story doesn't jive with the reported timeline Hence you have to be rationale and wait for all the information to come out and official timelines etc. The probability is more than likely, but knee jerk reactions just leave you with your head up your ass eating s%*# if things come out to the contrary 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Think of what an idiot Clevenger must be to get himself in this situation. Besides being just a bad guy, he is as dumb as can be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Remember, the White Sox traded for a wife beater once. Someone who was seen doing it by several witnesses on the streets of Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean we should jump to conclusions though. A 2% chance is still a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 From a baseball perspective, Sox have some serious work to do on the SP side. We only had 6 realistic SP to begin with, and #6 wasn't someone you really wanted to rely on. Going to need to find a new 5th SP, a couple other depth options in a hurry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not exactly a believer in a 78 win Twins team that hasn't really improved and could argue got worse 80% of the days they play, and I don't see the Guardians recreating their late season magic. But I understand the skepticism on the Sox. Edited January 24, 2023 by ChiSox59 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To take this out to the next step, if you are willing to defend this as oh he COULD be innocent because of this small rate of false reporting, literally no one should be mad about what the Sox are doing, because they also have this small percentage chance of being right, even if you assign them a 95% chance of failure. Seeing as no one is actually applying this same standard evenly for way less important things, I have zero interest in pretending that this is a real thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
