CWSpalehoseCWS Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I’m assuming Yoan is going to the 60, because he needs to be added to the 40-man. Sosa was officially sent down according to the transaction page. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I have no problem with adding some life to this team. It would be disappointing yet not surprising if Moncada goes on the 60-day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Only the White Sox organization can say with a straight face to their fanbase that they are promoting washed up AAAA asset Billy Hamilton to the major league roster in the same breath that they also say with a straight face that they are still trying to breathe life into a team to compete for the playoffs and remain in the conversation as being one of the premier AL teams. Either they are too dumb to know how bad at this they are, or they are just that sociopathic towards their fanbase. I honestly can’t decide which these days. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Since the end of the 2018 season, over the last 4 seasons, Billy Hamilton has a combined 549 PAs. He has 91 hits, 10 doubles, 3 triples, 2 home runs over those 4 seasons combined. I get the late speed threat, but keeping a guy on the team to just steal bases when you can’t and shouldn’t win games anyway makes no sense. Billy Hamilton literally adds no future value to this organization whatsoever. He’s just another schlub who plays one aspect of baseball well enough to have had a middling career like so many other schlubs we have had before. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed has a way of helping out...especially in those late inning close games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what end? Defense means nothing when the team is already out. Who cares about fielding at this point? This season is over. I don’t even care if Eloy gets hurt. Let them play and sink or swim. We need to find out what these men can do that we have invested so much in. If the gong show happens, let them lose by 11. A better draft pick is what we want anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 With my favorite player Jose Abreu gone, it's nice to have Billy Hamilton back in the mix as my 2023 favorite White Sox Player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
