February 12, 20233 yr Somewhere a front office person is teaching a few phrases to the players. "Sox showing a new energy" "Hoping to stay healthy" "It's not a distraction because he wasn't really ever on the team" "We're really going to like playing for him" "I'm hear to do what I can to help this team win a championship"
February 12, 20233 yr We will continue to find ways to improve the team……………..which we all know is total horse s%*#!!
February 12, 20233 yr Every player healthy and in the best shape of their career should be the answer.
February 12, 20233 yr "Hey is that Frank Thomas, The Big Hurt?"...."You mean The Big Hunk!!" Oh sorry it's early and I thought the thread said to predict the commercials.

A few players on this team could be called 'The Big Hurt' but only for the amount of time they spend injured.
February 12, 20233 yr Montgomery being groomed by TA7 to be the next Sox star SS...not to mention the Indiana roots and basketball similarities between the two. CHICAGO -- "Colson Montgomery interacted with shortstop Tim Anderson when Montgomery was called up a couple of times from the Minor League side to big league Spring Training last year..." Colas in best shape of his life again...has cut his body fat percentage to 3.8%, time to 1B out of LH batter's box now top quartile in league and even has demonstrated a willingness to fill in for Crochet this year as short reliever.

February 12, 20233 yr They have already been tweeting Yaz working vids as if that’s enough to get everyone hyped. I’m sure their social media will start churning out the fluff as camp opens while pretending like fans don’t know they did f*** all all off-season and now everything is just magically fixed…
February 12, 20233 yr Mike Clevinger has been working on his gum health and can now spit on an infant all the way throughout the scout seats. He believes that by the end of spring training he can clear the dugout from a standing position.
February 12, 20233 yr Anything Merkin writes will be a fluff piece straight from the mouth of his friend Rick Hahn.
February 12, 20233 yr Devin Hester is looking great at WR so far and will definitely contribute on offense this year.
February 12, 20233 yr I've never looked much aar Fangraphs write ups, but I give them praise in rge ZiPS projections. Even if I find their World Series chances for the Sox ludic, I do like their write up there, and previously basically calling the Whit Sox front office lazy.
February 12, 20233 yr “If Dylan Cease, Lance Lynn, Lucas Giolito, Michael Kopech, and Mike Clevinger all start 30 games, everything in the rotation ought to look hunky-dory. But if there’s an injury or two, things get dark — and I mean in the Darren Aronofsky sense — very quickly.” “The White Sox did so many things well while building up the team, but they face-planted as soon as it was time to compete. Once the fun began, the discipline in the team’s decision-making disappeared. Want the 1980s manager for no reason? Sure! Need to solve the problem of two of your best young bats both essentially being designated hitters? Split the difference and have neither of them be the DH! Surely all that money you were going to use to sign Manny Machado will go towards other budgetary needs? Nope? Well, you’ve got Leury Garcia.” https://www.soxon35th.com/fangraphs-zips-projections-reveal-clear-white-sox-holes/
February 12, 20233 yr 26 minutes ago, pcq said: This team has great chemistry and the talent to go ALL THE WAY. My guess it'll be all stuff about the new manager. This team is considered a dull collection of possible stars who have proven nothing so far. The manager needs to cure this sense of doom, blah attitude surrounding an oft-injured team. There should be constant talk of injuries and a desire to prevent them. Hope that happens.
February 12, 20233 yr Merkin certainly will need some kneepads during camp. He reminds me of Mike Klis from the Denver Post.
February 13, 20233 yr 4 hours ago, Squirmin' for Yermin said: Eloy is looking fantastic out in right field Now up to 80 mph on his throws after working out at Drive like during the offseason. Also wearing a new sensor on his belt that detects fences and/or netting from ten yards away and starts beeping progressively louder as he nears aforementioned obstacles.
February 13, 20233 yr 4 hours ago, Squirmin' for Yermin said: Eloy is looking fantastic out in right field I just had this scary thought the other day: is he projected to play in the outfield for the Dominican Republic in the WBC?
February 13, 20233 yr Merkin will do a story on how Moncada's dancing/videos has put him in better shape for this year.

He's in the best shape of his life, Twinkies notwithstanding. The girls in the music videos also helped "work out" his hamstring issues too. Scott Merkin winning!
